There is good in every breed. Grow n crop of turnips for the ducks. Count the chickens that you raisp , not those thjit 3011 Imtch. Ducks should not be given corn nor cornmeal during hot wonthcr. Let the newly hatched chicks run with the hen as long as poasiblc. i i ThR India runner Is the best laying variety of the duck family. Whoever undertakes to raise late chickens must expect to fight lice. Try hard to raise more of the chicks you hatch this year than ever beforo. Bone fed in some shape is absolutely necessary if you wish cgg.5. Xeatsfoot oil is highly recommended as a remedy for scab' legs in foAvIs. Apply with a soft brush. During hot weather it is safer to run the incubator in a cool , dry cellar than it Is above ground. Vegetables are best fed in a raw state. Cut them up in a root or bone cutter and feed in troughs. During summer there should be but two regular feeds for the breeding stock. Give grass or green stuff at noon. "Watch the droppings of the poultry. Much regarding the health of the fowls can be told from their condition. Be careful of the half grown chicks. Many hens wean their young too soon , and a cold rain is sure death to them. If properly grown and cared for , the June hatched pullets will come into profit almost as quickly as ilay hatched birds. A goose egg weighing five ounces will hatch n gosling that In three mouths will weigh from ten to eleven pounds. I A good sized yard should be fenced in for the hen with little chicks until the latter arc able to keep up with their mother. Plant plenty of beets or mangel wur- zels. There is nothing that the poul try like better in the way of green food. food.Eggs Eggs that have been kept two or three weeks produce weak chickens. Better use fresh laid eggs for hatching. Put poles in the top of an open shed for the turkeys. During warm weather they should never be required to sleep In a close roost. This hot , sultry weather be careful how you feed your little chicks. If too 'much feed be thrown about in a sloppy condition it may sour and cause trouble In the flock. Farm Journal.

The illustration herewith la all that Is necessary to Indicate to the intelli gent reader how poultry Is fattened for market In Sussex , England , a dis trict which Is said to send more high class poultry Into the London markets 53 x than nil other places in England com bined. The poultry fattening industry Is yet in its infancy in this country , and many .1 fanner hero can add ap preciably to the receipts from the sale of his poultry by putting the birds on a highly fattening diet in a coop about r5 two -\veeks before sending them to * § Kerosene In the Poultry Yard. For blrdr. which have j-'caiy logs , sponging the legs wflh : i saturate solu tion of crude naphthalene Hakes hi kerosene Is good. Be careful not to get any on the soft parts and do not allow o the birds to go to roost immediately after treating them. This mixture will blister if it gets on the soft flesh.
