At no time la the store than tvrenty flve years that I have been wrltlna for the agricultural papers has there been as much interest shown in and so many questions ashed about the care and management of poultry as now. savB a writer In Home and Farm. . I beliave that one reason for this is that during the years of low prices for sta ple crops tbe fanners who kept poultry and cared for it well found that they paid the grocery bills easily and that a hundred or more dollars could be made from poultry easier than from any other product of tbe farm. One reason why so many farmers fail -to appreciate the profit from poultry is that no account is kept with the hens and so credits given, and the average farmer could not give an intelligent guess as to what it costs to keep a ben a year or tell whether she paid for her feed nr tint. On manv farms the poultry is neither fed nor watered, but are expected to forage and steal from hogs and other stock what they can. and they get no care except from the farmer's wife, who already has more duties than it is possible for her to at tend to properly. For several years past I have taken all the care of my poultry, and I have fed them as regularly as I do my work teams, and have seen that they had plenty of pure, fresh water to drink, free from ice in winter and changed two or three times a day in summer and that they have had grit and a dust hath accessible at all times. The result has been that I have had eggs In abundance. In 1897 I kept 120 Ply mouth Rock hens and thirty-three lay ing Pekin ducks. We raised nearly 200 ducks and 150 chickens. I cannot give the exact cost of feed, for we fed two litters of pigs from the same bins of meal and bran that the poultry was fed from, but I estimate that we fed our poultry about 300 bushels of corn and oats, two tons of bran and $10 worth of special food, such as bone meal, meat meal and oil meal, and in addi tion large quantities of lettuce and cabbage, which cost but little, as we can grow 150 pounds of lettuce to the square rod, and we only feed the un merchantable cabbage after marketing the salable heads. It is a liberal esti mate that our feed cost $80. Feed was cheap this year, corn sell ing at 17 cents a bushel and bran at $8.50 per ton. Our sales for the year from the poultry were 52S6.46. but about 1120 of this was from eggs for hatching, which were packed carefully and sent by express, and this source of profit would not be available to farm ers generally. One hundred dollars worth of eggs were sold at market prices to the grocer, and these were sold at from 7 cents per dozen to 20 cents, but not many at either of these extreme prices, but the average was not far from 10 cents a dozen, and we sold SC3.7S worth of poultry, mostly ducks. It will be seen that we sold S1C3.78 worth of poultry products at ordinary prices, and if the eggs sold for hatching had been sold in tbe mar ket instead of for hatching our sales would have been just about S180, in stead of $286. And in showing that poultry is profitable this smaller sum Is the fair one to consider. The reader will probably conclude that the feed should be deducted from this, leaving $100 as net profit If this arlssws haa sftr sr sevsaty-lvs patrons the ma of sand farators.wssM thus seesssltato ffty or Mvesty-lve autchiaes instead of one. The difference la. the expessa Is great Mr. Lyons The lies of the saai sep arator is that the farsaer has one aim self. Q. That doesn't change the sutter.

(Condensed from Farmers' Review Stenographic Report of Illinois Slate Pairymen's Convention.) L. A. Spies spoke on feeding of dairy cows in southern Illinois. In part he said: The feeding of dairy cows in dif ferent localities is influenced most by the kind of feed that grows best in those localities. Southern Illinois has long been noted for its crops of corn. We have our cows come in fresh in the fall of the year, as we then get our dairy products when they will bring the most money. We have long since quit buying other people's mistakes, and raise our own cows. We trait, them to be hearty caters and develop a sound constitution. I would not dairy with out silage, as this makes it possible to have succulent feed all the year round, the very thing necessary for a large flow of milk. Mr. W. K. Lyons also contributed an interesting paper, which led to the fol lowing discussion: Q. I would like to ask if the bad condition of the roads for quite a por tion of the year isn't quite a drawback to dairying in this section? Mr. Lyons Occasionally it is. The way it is right now it is considerable of a drawback, but for several winters past we have experienced very int!e difficulty in that regard. Q. I would like to ask this question: Mr. Lyons, in his remarks, rather dep recated the use of the hand separator. Wouldn't the use of hand separators in furnishing cream to the creameries ob viate some of the -difficulty of bad roads? You would not have to carry so much stuff to the creamery. Mr. Lyons In Southern- Illinois the farmers will eome to town anyway, and tbe creameries are not far apart I cannot see where the advantages come In. Q. What is your objection to the hand separator? Mr. Lyons The creamery would have to drive around and collect tbe cream. Q What is -the objection from the farmer's standpoint? Mr. Lyons One of the great objec tions would be the expense of sollect Ing the milk. The farmer's expense in hauling the milk is not to be compared with the creamery's expense in going after it The creamery man has to pay two or three dollars for a team and driver, when many times the farmer's teams are idle and can do It much cheaper than tbe creamery man. The expense comes out of the farmer In the end. and I claim the present plan would be more successful. Q. How about in the summer? Mr. Lyons In our 'experience the, milk for many of tbe creameries In Southern Illinois is brought in by the young people, children, and old people that are not very serviceable on the farm, and thus It is done with very lit tle expense. "Suppose half a dozen farm ers club together In a locality. Of course the one that comes in loses half a day. hut how often does that happen? Only once a week; and he must eome to town for supplies occasionally. Of course where farmers are within a mile of the creamery it takes only a small portion of time. Q. You do not mean to say that the milk is delivered ealy once a week? Mr. Lyons I mean thai where half a doses farmers club together one needs to come only once a week. Q. I am not interested In this mat ter at all; but it strikes me very forci bly that I eaa see a great objection to it It is utterly impossible for a man to operate fifty machines as well as he Dalrjlar far the ArM Keaiaaa. From the Canadian line to the coast line of the Gulf of Mexico is a broad strip of territory that has afforded a more or less uncertain support to the people that inhabit it Before the advent of the white man this section I of country was the feeding ground of millions of buffaloes, which emigrated from section to section as the feed failed. This should have indicated the use to which the land should be put by its new owners. But for a long time the whites tried to raise grain on these old pasturages. That the land was rich is not to be disputed, but the water for the crops came not at all or came at the wrong time of year in most casss. Sometimes, however, it came at the right time, resulting, in most abundant harvests of high quality grain. At last the farmers in that region have awakened to the fact that the cow is the best friend of that part of the country aad the best sup .port on which the inhabitants, can leas. This will continue to be the case until the time comes that the region in question can be properly ir rigated, when it will again be used for the growing of grain, orchards and vegetables. Till that time we may expect to see dairying the most re liable branch of farming possible to the great semi-arid strip. Correspondents of the Farmer's Re view report that the facilities for that industry are unbounded. Much of the land is of such a character that plow ing is -a positive injury. The corre spondent In Ellis county, Kansas, says that he has been plowing his land for twenty years, end believes that it has resulted in great injury. He has known years when the entire plowed soil blew away to the depth of the plowing. A tenant of his has since followed the plan of drilling in the seed in the. unplowed stubble and gets better results than had been possible by plowing. In harvesting, only the header is used, the stubble being thus left almost as high as the grain had been. This protects the soil from the work of the winds. This is another indication that the land should be used for dairy pur poses, wherever railroad facilities are sufficient to make a market possible. The blowing away of the soil will be prevented by the grasses of the per-, manent pasture. In this case the num ber of permanent pasture grasses would necessarily be small. Alfalfa would in some cases be the only one that would stand through all the vary ing conditions of the year. With a root that reaches sometimes 25 feet into the soil for moisture it will be able to stand the most severe drouth. This plant Is already being very ex tensively grown over much of this re gion. It Is the forerunner of the dairy cow. The cloudless skies of the semi arid strip are agreeable to the develop ment of the plant Kaffir corn also oianito aa a nrnmlnonf fotiinw a-.fcxi .... - ,. - - ...-j. ,tVVi, dairy development oi tnis section, it will grow where Indian corn will fail, as has been demonstrated in preceding years. The windmill stands as a third fac tor in the list Many farmers are us ing it to irrigate a few acres each, for the growing of vegetables, even when they have no reservoirs. Some that have reservoirs have been able to ir rigate as many as 20 acres. As irri gated land will sustain a greater num ber of pasturing stock than most any other land, it is readily seen that there are great possibilities before the small dairyman in the far west.

In telling his'atory, Mr. Vandyke says: 'Fire years azo I was afflicted with a trouble or tae stomaco, which was very aggra vating.

That Seals should appeal to France in the present crisis is perhaps natur al, but it would be interesting to learn on what grounds she appeals to that country as "her traditional friend." Franca has always teen taei bitter enemy of Spain. It was Francis IL, of France who did the most to defeat the schemes of the Emperor Charles V. It was Napoleon who conquered Spain by treachery; and it was an alliance between the English and Spanish that diu the most to overthrow him.

A report of tbe New York Board of Health as to milk says "that the efforts of the milk inspectors were di rected to tbe stores in the tenement house districts and in the vicinity of public schools, where milk is sold by the glass or small quantities. There was a great improvement in the qual ity of milk over preceding years and the percentage of adulterations was far less. The number of cows in the city limits which furnish milk for the city is 3,200, and the number outside 112,370. There are 7,000 places In the city where milk is sold both wholesale and retail. The practice of putting ice in milk to cool it has been nearly abolished, as tbe sanitary code provides a penalty for adulterating milk in that way. There is also great danger of disease imparted from foul Ice. The benefits of compelling vendors of milk, both wholesale and' retail, to take out li censed permits have been found of great value. Chicks reatherlag. There is a great difference in the breeds as to tbe time of the chicks feathering out. Some of the non-setting breeds feather out very quickly and therefore need more attention in the matter of food. This precocity is not desirable, but we must admit that It can not be helped. As the feather takes not carbo-hydrates, but proteins, for its formation, it is evident that we should give more of this kind of feed to the chicks at the time they are be ginning to feather. The breeds that do not feather out quickly are supposed to stand the proc ess better, for it is the opinion among poultrymen that a chick that feathers slowly Is more certain to be raised than the one that feathers out rapidly. This is due to iie fact that the process is very weakening, and the chick fails an easy prey to lice and germs or dis ease. Your Owa Experience. Begin the business of raising inely bred poultry on a moderate scale asd acquire your own experience. The experience of others may be made worth much to you, but not as much as your own. It is not necessary for the farmer to become a poultry fancier in order to make his poultry profitable, and he will not have time to make, Taney breeding profitable unless he abandons to a considerable extent the other farm industries. But he can greatly Improve his poultry department aad fix it securely on a payiag basis by using males of some judiciously selected staadard breed, asd it will not be a bad plan to have a few pure bred hens The experiments recently made pub lic in the production of intense cold by liquefying air are of direct value to housekeepers. When effected and applied commercially it will mean, in addition to the large benefits, a num ber of small ones within the kitchen domain. Science now bids us hope that very soon we caa store cold as we do electricity, and apply it eaiily and conveniently whenever we need it Subscriptions to the permanent or chestra fund in New York amount to $32,500.

Doctors could do nothing forme, ami they could not cure mc at the hospital. I will tell you about it I had been in my usual health, but-had worked quito hard. When my monthly period came on I ilowct very badly. The doctor gave me medicine, but it did mc no good. He said the flow must be stopped if possible, and he must find the cause of my trouble. Upon examination he found then) wasa fibroid tumor in my womb, nnd gave mc treatment without any benefit whatever. About that time a lady called on me and recommended Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; said she owed her life to it. I said I would try it, and did. Soon after the flow became more natural and regular. I still continued taking the Compound for some time. Then the doctor made an ex amination again, and found everything all right The tumor had passed away, and that dull ache was gone."

It Is si!-.! ihat there are lint two champagne- asents in New York who Irak t!i?Ir living wholly by "pushing" their -brand exclusively, whereas there were 3 dozen a few yein ago. The change is not because of the fall ing off in Iho consumption of t:z. out lrcause of iho heavy tolls exacted by waiters who aid in the pushing. m At a recent concert in New York, during the rendition of the "Oboron" overture, in which the British air. "God Save the Queen," is introduced, as it is in the opera prop-r, the audi ence broke into vociferous ap plause, recognizing the music solely as that of "America." Had an Eng lishman been present he would have been justified in marveling at the num ber of Anglo-maniacs in the theater. It would be interesting to know just how many average Americans are aware that the melody of the Ameri can hymn is borrowed from the na tional air of England. "The Star Spangled Banner." although its music is of foreign antecedents, is probably the most distinctively American of all our songs of this class. "March ing Through Georgia" and "Dixie" are unfortunate in being too sectional in character to serve as national an thems, though they are both martial and pulse stirring in the highest de-eree.
