The ono defends
tho Incubator and
tho othor the hen,
Bays the editor of
Western Farm
Journal. Tho incu
bator champion
says ho has grown tired of fussy Bitting
hens, of eggs broken in the nest, and
chicks trampled to death. Just when
you want a broody hen, none can be
found, und when you do not want any,
all of them have tho fever. Tho other
fellow Bays he tried artificial incuba
tion ono season nnd ho has enough. No
more weak or roasted chicks for him;
ho has grown tired of getting up at
night to look after an incubator,
and ho cannot stand 60 per cent
hatches nnd under. Wo are friends of
both. While wo do not bollovo that
tho Incubator can give us ns good gen
eral hntches as tho hen can, while wo
know thero Is moro or less trouble to
run a machine, we also know that at
tending to fifty to ono hundred hens
will occupy moro time than running
inree largo Incubators, and that the
results will bo about equal. Wo also
know that market poultry culturo never
received the proper boom until tho in
vention of good incubators, and we be
llovo that the lack of good incubators
in England Is the sole cause of the fall
uro of poultry farms there. Incubators
havo an Important mission. They give
us chicks wholesale, and they do their
work at nil times of tho year. It may
not bo necessary for farmers to engage
In nrtlflclal hatching, but if they want
to add a winter pursuit to farm opora
tlonB, they will find it necessary, un
less egg farming Is to bo tho mainstay.
We aro often asked which is tho most
profitable for tho farmer to undertako,
egg farming or broiler raising. Wo
think that tho chances for success aro
about equal. We know of farmers who
mako broiler raising tho adjunct. They
buy their eggs of neighboring fanners,
and hatch only during the winter, so
that by the tlmo tho regular farm work
begins they havo disposed of all tho
stock, and tho houses aro cleaned and
made ready for another season. Of
courso, on these farms, Incubators and
brooders aro used. We, too, know of
farmers who each spring hatch out pal
lets which they grow to maturity, or
rather get to laying by November, and
these furnish a lot of eggs during the
winter, at tho very time they are bring
ing tho most money. Each year they
hatch out new pullets, nnd each yenr
they market, us roasters, those used
last year. Both plans are good ones
where poultry Is to be merely a branch
or a crop of tho farm. For general
poultry farming thero must be some
thing different. Poultry farms, to be
sure of success, must havo a regular
Income; there must always bo some
thing for Bale. For that reason thor
oughbreds are advised, and the
branches of eggs, broilers nnd roasters
are U3cd.
Improved Fowl.
Texas Rarm and Ranch says: Tho
greatest Improvement that can be made
In chickens Is by careful selection and
breeding from those specimens which
possess tho qualities desired. Wo hold,
In the interest of utility that tho best
fowls of all aro those which possess thu
best table and laying qualities. Next
lo these come general uniformity in ex
ternal appearance, which causes them
to sell to better advantage, but add
nothing to tho value of the fowls in the
hands of tho consumer. This Improve
ment requires only common sense and
caro. No technical or scientific knowl
edge is required. Let tho heu3 be care
fully watched and their laying habits
Carefully 'noted; from the best layers
savo breeders, male and female, reject
ing thoso that are badly lacking in
color or form, even If excellent layers.
This Is merely a concession to buyers
who prefer uniform lots. If any mani
fest superior table qualities note
whence they come, and watch with a
view of duplicating these qualities.
Commence alwayswlth an established
breed, but give eggs and flesh prefer
ence over standard points, uuless you
wish to compete for prizes in a show.
In that case everything must give way
to a consideration of standard require
ments. Eggs and flesh don't count in
a poultry show. In this way every
farmer can improve his fowls and make
them more and moro profitable as the
process continues. Every year or two
years a fresh cock of the breed used
should be introduced to prevent weak
ening by Inbreeding. This adv4ce will
give some of tho poultry writers an
attack of cacoethes scribendl nnd they,
notwithstanding they know that this
theory of improvement Is sound, and
that they apply It to tho development
of standard points, will denounce It,
misrepresent it, and become as mad as
a sitting hen, because it does not suit
their views, nor promote what they
consider their Interests.
Butter for Britain. Last year the
United Kingdom imported butter to
the value of over 5,O00,000 per month.
For the first eight months of the year
her exact expenditures for butter were

United States received the magnificent
total of less than 1 per cent, exactly
f365,970.53. When It Is remembered
that wo are within eoven days of the

't - Dnttar-Maklne without Ice.
"Ono great ndvantago tho creamery
has over tho private dairy is in a Bup
ply of ico to use in hot weather," Bays
a writer in Epltomlst. "Ico in a cream
ery comco bo near a necessity that few
would undertake to run ono without
Ice. But an abundant supply of water
will answer tho purpose. It takea lon
ger to cool with water than It does "t6
throw a lot of ico Into tho cream, but
Ihcre aro objections to cooling by put
ting ice into tho cream. The reports
from all markets now contain tho infor
mation that most of the creamery but
ter has defects, due to hot weather.
And yet the creameries all have ice.
In tho private dairy it 1b much easier
to get along without Ice. In tho first
placo no cream has to bo carted alone
tho road in hot weather and become
heated. In the second placo there is
less cream to cool and, therefore, less
water will be needed. In the third
placo tho cows need water, and tho
water used to cool tho dairy houso can
bo run through it nnd go to tho cows,
bo there is no extra water needed to
cool the cream. In the fourth placo a
largo tank of" water should stand in tho
dairy houso and tho cream can be fcet
in this and it will kcop cool and need
no extra coollngi4" Whenjtho butter
comes, cold water is necessary, not ice.
If tho wind blows, thl3 problem 1b al
ready solved on Iowa farms, for they
havo windmills YcTpump for stock and
tho stock water can run through tho
dairy house. But if the wind will not
blow at that tlmo, then hand pump
ing must bo resorted to for tho supply,
or other provisions made. No hand
pumping Is done for our dairy. A tread
power stands In n power house near by
and a shaft rups through the dairy
house. If cold water Is desired when
zephyrs are asleep, a horse is led Into
tho tread and ho does tho work. No
ice Is desired for butter-making with
such conveniences. Pure, fresh, colif
water suits better than . stale ater
made cold with Ice. A refrigerator Is
In tho dairy house also. No ice is used
in it, but simply cold water. Instead
of putting cold water Into this refrig
erator, the refrigerator 1b put Into the
cold water. It Is a galvanized iron
tank inside of the water tank, and tho
water passing through this water tank
for all stock purposes keeps butter
hard and nice In tho refrigerator. In
hot, still weather, thero Is no trouble,
for, If tho wind is missing, the supply
of water Is kept up by a horse-power
for stock, and bo tho water In the dairy
house tank Is always cold."
Rule for Kilted Cheesr.
Tho commissioner of Internal rev
enue, vlth the approval of tho secret
tary of the treasury, has issued a series
of regulations for the enforcement of
tho act Imposing a tax upon filled
chceso and regulating Its manufacture,
sale, Importation and exportation. Tho
regulations prescrlbo that on the day
when the act goes Into effect Sept.
4, 1S9G all filled cheese In the hands
of dealers must be In wooden packages
of not les3 than ten poundB each and
every dealer must make, under oath,
a written inventory of all packages on
hand on that date containing ten
pounds or more of filled cheese. The
regulations further prescribe that the
dealer must procuro from tho collector
of Internal rovemie and affix to each
package the proper tax-paid stamp.
Tho dealer will then 'cancel tho stamp.
In tho cancellation the 'words and fig
ures must not bo defaced. On the 4th
of September, or as soon thereafter as
practicable, tho internal revenue of
ficers will travel over their respective
districts, report tho stock in the hands
of dealers and seize all that is not
found duly marked, branded and
stamped. The collector will keep a
record or an tuiea cheese produced In
bis district and of the quantity re
moved from manufactories for con
sumption or sale. He will also render
to the commissioner of internal rev
enue a monthly return of production,
withdrawals and stock on hand. It is
expected that the coupon stamps repre
senting the pound tax on filled cheese
will bo In the hands of collectors of
Internal revenue for sale as early as
Aug. 15, 189C, and thnt blank forms for
manufacturers and dealers will also
be ready for distribution by that date.

The Hoc Demanded,
Hog production dots not excite as
much enthusiasm as In some times not
very distant, as tho market Is down,
but this is a fluctuation Incident to
most food products, snys Northwestern
Farmer. It Is not wise to lose faith
in the Improving hog, Tho experiment
station in Iowa is beginning experi
ments with tho hog, with a view to
producing a hog that is comparatively
lean and adapted to the present exi
gencies. The uso of substitutes for
lard and the demand for a better class
of pork are tho incentives to produce
n different animal. Prof. Wilson, of
the Ames station, is lining up material
for the hog ho thlnko tho farmers
should grow. He has Imported from
England specimens of several breeds
of tho bacon hog. tho Yorkshire, the
English Tamworth, Jersey, Duroc, and,
crosses between the Poland China and
theso breeds and the Chester Whites
and theso breeds. It is a good work.

With a better understanding' of tho

the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness aro not duo to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of tho system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, nnd is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effecto are duo to tho fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the cnjoj'mcnt of good health,
and tho system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies aro then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual dibease, one
may bo commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of, a laxative,
