Flimsy foundations for poultry houses should 1.Ie\'er be tolernted In construcUolI. The foundntlon hns milch to do with the acrvicenbllltf , ut the structurn. Too often tbo faun' dation consists alml } ! ) ' or tllo soil. The joists rest on the ground and ! are sUbject to all the molsturo that ! permeates the soil summer nnd win. .tor. The water runs under the hO\lso and no\'el' dries out. It rcmnlns an , unhealthy plot or ground , alwn's ren. ; der1ng damp the floor just nbove It. , Sometimes the low space becomes a 'harbor for all kinds of undelllrnbll' live thIngs , l1He rats , snal < es , slmnl < s , and , oven cats that prowl 0' nights. What. , over the foundatfon Is. see that It Is : flrm enough so that It cnnnot bo pene' .trated and deep enough so that It carnet bo burrowed under. The construction or the foundntfon will depend a good deal'on whether .tho building Is to bo permanent or not. ; U It Is n temporary structure , the ! foundntfons cannot , of course , be mnde iexpenslve , On the other hand , It the ! str cturo Is to r ma n In ono plnce ; Indeflnltely It Is better to bund It , or brlcle , stone or cement. Just the 'Idnd . of materlnl to bo used will do. pond on the 10caUt . . Thus. a farmer living on soil made of glacial drift has a grent surplus of stones , whIch 'can be utfllzed by being laId In ceo ment. Often such material will cost ! nothlng , but will provo very substan. 'tla ! . A really good foundatfon should bo laid In a. . ditch carried down below the frost line. This will xrevont heav. Ing or settling of tllO buildIng , will prevent the hurrowlng of anlnJuis , and will help to I\oep tbo cold from the : space under the floor , If there be one. Whatever foundntfon Is constructed. there should bo some provision for 'ventllatfon. Small apertures should , be left. which should bo closed b ) ' Inch 'mesh ' wire. Tbls may be , Imbedded permanently In the cement If desired. lIt mIght be profitable to use oven a , closer wire , as any mesh can be ob. 'talned. ' The wlro should bo heavy , , to insure permanency. ThIs ventlla. . . ' , tlon is not needed 1C there Is to bo no floor to the house , as then there will .be a free access to the tfmbe's on ho Inside. In the case of wooden ifloors and wooden sills beIng used. the 'ventllatfon prevents rotting. The use of concrete Is becomll'lg IIPopular. I . l\Ian ' 11. farmer can construct fa concrete foundation without the helper , or skilled labor. He needs only to be 'careful ' nbout the measurements and /the / angles , but most farmers have : squares and tape measures and foot Irules , The concrete foundation should Ibo laid In a trench dug where the ' , fOUndatfon Is to go , care being used to get the trench below the frost l1n\ ! Then measure the angles and drive ! down stalees. Other stal\Cs ma ) ' be Idrlven In such position as to permit boards ' being nailed against them along jWhere' the foundation Is to bo laid , 'rwo rows of boards should bo la1.l , /tho / thlclmess of the wall apart. 'rhen , the stones from the field or the river 'can ' be mixed with the cement and : the wet mixture poured In. The cn. ; tlro height of the wnll mny be laid 'at ono tlmo or only In layers , the I " boards beIng Imed up ufter the ceo "ment below has hardened enough to : hold Its form. The superstructure should not be placed on this cementl' ; roundatfon till It has hardened sur. . flclently to bear any ordinary , velght. White Pekln Ducks. No ducks stand higher In popular , estimation than these. They nre said I to be tbo most easily raised' any ! and can be grown In large numbers 'In the same flocle. They were 1m. . . - - - lported from China In the early se' ; < ! n' : Ues. TIle stnndard weight at the ( drake Is 8 pounds and of the mature \duclc \ 7 pounds , The Peltins are. very ; large. and .frequently pairs will be round that will weigh 20 pounds. TheIr flesh Is very dellcato nnd free fl'Om 'grossness ' , and they are among the , best or table fowls , They are very good layers and average from 100 to ' 125 eggs per season. They do not gen. erally sit , and their young are hardy and easily raised. Every man that expects to show ' birds this faB should take xtra pre. cautions for their health. Numerous birds are lost every ) 'ear because they IJ.ro not properly provIded with coops chat protect them from drafts of cold air , after they hnvo been heatell up. Decayed food Is fit only to be burled In the ground out or sIght or con. sumed In the fire.

It Is only In modern times thD.t land dralnago has been roduce(1 to a sclonco and the dralnago engineer bas put In an appearance. Provlously to this tlmo It was thought thnt any fool Inow enough to dig a ditch in the Boll nnd Hno It with stones or drain plvo I and flx It so the water , , 'ould run I . through. , It. This was \'ery nenrly true In sections r Now England when land dralnago came Into vogue , for the ren. son thnt the ditch dug was large nnd the drain was . mndo or atones. The lint ones wero.'lnld for 1co'er over the wall or smnller ones , nnd frequont. Iy the dmln Itself wns a foot wldo nnd moro than that high. It was dlf. ficult to stop up a drnln 1Ilto thnt by i the sediment that ordinarilY cnmo In I . with the dralnago wnter. Thpo , too , the fal ! was genornlly so grent that the wy.ter would push Itself through nn 'war. carrying the sedIment along with It. But when agrlculturo ex. tended to the I11alns or the west the tJroposltlon " 'as dlfcrenl OIlO. The : : reat pralrlos01'0 so fint that It was Jlfficult often to dIscover In which way the natural fall lay. Then. too , the ; tones were absent and the drnln tIle uad to be mndo out of clny. This gave rlso to 11 business that was now 10 the country , thnt of mnldng drain ; lIe. The farmers , Dr course , did not want to buy drain tIle a foot In dlam. tor on account or the cost. So the mnller sizes were used , nnd nt ono Imo the practlco was to put In tllo \lnly \ two nnd a lmlf Inches In dlnm. ater. ThIs has now Increased again :0 : four Inches , which la generally con. ; : oded to bo small enough for the do- ; Ired results , wben properly laid. But Wlth"tllo came a new IJroblom , that of maldng the ditch so perfect that the tIIo woulll 1I ven e\'er . . where. 'rho flow of the water being languid requIred to he unobstructed. The current In the t1Io would scldom have enough force to wash out the sediment and if tbere was a low ploco In the whole length or tile thnt would soon become stopped up. The no\'ico tried to lay some of these draIns and did so. But In a few 'ears mllny of tleso : draIns became stopped 'up , so that they ceased to worle. The ' hnd then to be dug up or the land left In the condition It wns In before the tllo was put In. After a good many : expenslvo exp rlences or this l\lnd thl1 ' farmers began to employ el\'l1 en. glneers to run their lines and super. Intend the laying or the tile. 'l'hls bns been found to be the only safe way In tbo pralrlo states. There are : S0l110 farmers now that tblnlc they are smart enough to do theIr own drain. age worle , but the attempt often proves very costly and w111 continuo to do seat at tlmos. We cannot all vise thIs sort of economy. It Is cheaper to pay a drl1lnllge engineer to llo the worlt properly than It Is to ha\'o n drnlnago system that will not worl. or one tbat has to bo llug out nnd reconstructqd. Wheat Scab. From . the Farmera' Review : 'Wo n' close two hends of whent gathered In this county. They show blasted spots upon them. The farmers In the west. ern half of the county are complain. Ing that their wheat crops are budly damaged In thIs way. What Is tbo CIlUSO or thls-Sallee Brothers , Pulas. 11 County , Kentuelty. . . . We submitted the heads or wheat to Professor Garman of the Kentucly station , who replied as follows : Tbe hends of wheat enclosed by your correspondents are affected wltb what Is lmown as wheat scab , a llis. ease due to the attaclts or a plnl\lsh or yellowish fungus , descrIbed long ago by an English botanIst under the Dame Fuslsporlum cuhnorum. The dls. ellso has at times been complnlned at by Indiana Ilnd Ohio farmers. but Is not common In Kentucky , this being the flrst complaint that hils como tome mo from this state. The rather cold , damp spring just closing has encour. aged such diseases and probably other Kentucley farmers have suffered from the same trouble , but failed to recog. nlzo It. The fungus attacks the chaff and seed from the outsIde , causing them to change In color , and the seed final. Iy shrlvellf. Often only the termInal portion or a head Is affeCted , but fro- quonUy the Injury begIns at the mid. dIe , where It may at flrst aUect only [ I , slnglp seed and Its glumes , It Is 'doubtful If any treatment that an bo consIdered practicable would help the affected wheat. and It seems probable anywny that the dlseaso Is Jno ot these that are not to bo con. trolled , because very largely the reo mlt of weatber conditions.
