The cover of the box can be used for the floor. The box is reversed, open end on the ground, and an opening one foot high is made across one side of the box against the open end. Two one inch by two inch cleats are nailed on the two ends of the box at the ground ; the cover of the floor is reduced in size so that it will slide in on these cleats. This allows the floor to be removed for cleaning. ‘The box should be covered with tar paper to make it waterâ€"tight and there should be a 10 by 14 inch pane of glass in the front. This glass should slide in cleats for ventilation. In front of the one foot opening at theâ€" ground â€" theore should be a crate 15 inches high covered with laths, two inches apart.

The hen and chickens should be placed in a grass field. This will reduce the mortality due . to the chickeas beingz reared on inâ€" fected ground around the farm buildâ€" ings.

Mrs. Danby says; "I think Dr. Willltams‘ Pink Pills a blessing to suffering women. For a long time I was a great sufferer from the ailâ€" ments that afflict so many of my sex. I was extremoly mervous at all times, suffered a great deal with headaches and indigestion. In fact I was in a most miserable condition when I bogan the use of Dr. AWilâ€" liams‘ Pitk Pilis, but after taking them a short tims I began to imâ€" prove, and through their further use I am altogethor like a now woman.

The Czar‘s Government snends more on the press eensorship than it does on education, and quite recently the staif of press censors had been increased by eight.

Irom two .cows at 7,500 pounds each, while the cost of keepng the additional three cows uses up ali the profit. To start right a farmer had better buy one good, wellâ€"bred Holâ€" steinâ€"Frigqsian cow than invest the same money in a lot ofâ€" mongrels. In the first place, he can, by broedâ€" ing his cow <to a pureâ€"bred bail and raising ail the heifer calves, in time possess a herd of choice pureâ€" bred cows ; but with a herd of secrubs bred to scrub bulls he will keep his noso on ‘the grindstone to the end o[f the chapter, as too many dairy {n.rmers are doing all over the counâ€" ry. e But many, if not most, of our dairy| farmers have in ‘their hords of ‘"natives," some indiviguals . of more than average merit. By breedâ€" ing these to good, pureâ€"bred Hoilâ€" steinâ€"Friesian bulls and continuing to grade up the heifer calves in . the same way,a herd of high grades may be established. II not as good as pureâ€"bred cows, they will be far betâ€" 1er than a â€" miscollancous lot of mongrels. Agide {rom a moderate serâ€" vice fee to begin with, it costs no more to raise a grade call than a scrub. A valuable object lesson on this subject is givon in Bulletin 169 of the Cornell Experiment Station.

Holstein Grades in the Dairyâ€"By Lâ€"orge A. Martin. j ° A poor man cannot afford to keep a puur cow, Nothag wili more sureâ€" ty keep a man post than to keep a hera of cows whica proguce utiy enough to pay the bare cogst _ of keepung. ‘The aggregate â€" yie.d from live cows, at an average of 3,000 pounds each, is only| as much as that cows, largely composed of Holstein grades. Jt is remarked in the beâ€" ginning, that "in building up the herd the aim has been to form one that wouid furnish an object lesâ€" mon to those farmers who desire to improve their herds, but go not feel able to _ purchase pure bred astock entirely," Accordingly the herd has been developed from the ordinary stock of the neighborhood by tho uga of pure bred bulls and a rigid selection oT the bost heifers. At thoe setart the avérage yield of milk per cow, war a little more thin 2,000 pounrds. Tho descendants of these same cows are now producing over 7,500 pounds of milk per cow. This ~incroase of two and a hall times ‘is the result of: judicious selâ€" ection o0% gire and dam, together with careful feeding, and is a result which every farmer may obtain by followâ€" ing a similar course. In fact, taking the Holstcins alone, the average yield of milk wase over 9.000 pounds of milk per year. The greatest production for one lactaâ€" tion waer by Ruby, threeâ€"fourths Holâ€" stein, who gave in 64 weeks, 16,089 pounds of milk, containing 53132 pounds of fat, equivalent to G2% pounds of butter, containing 85 per cont. fat. The lesson is &4 most impressive one for every farmer who keepe cows. By the use of pure bred bulls, the selection of the best heifers and careâ€" ful feeding, a herd was in a few yearse graded up from an average yicld which rcarcely paid the cost of keeping, to a highly profitable avâ€" erage. The result is one "which every farmer can obtain by following a rimilar course." If thore is no available Holstein buil in the neighâ€" borhood, an& the farmer doese not feel able to buy one, he can almost anyâ€" where find neighbors who can be porsuaded to join him in a club for that purpose. _A few of the poorâ€" cat cows in each herd, if fed and pold to the butcher, would bring enough to buy a good bull, and the herds would be beiter for the siftâ€" ing. A‘dwarfish thing of stecl and fire; My iron nerves obey The bidding of my crafty sire, Who drew me out of clay, And sent me forth, on paths untrod, To slay his puny clan; * A slave of hell, a scourge of God, For I was made by Man. When foul fog curtains droop and meet Athwart an oily sea; My rhythmic pulse begins to beat ; ‘Tis hunting time for me. A breathing swell is hardly seen, To stir the emerald deep, As through that ocean jungle green T, velvetâ€"footed, creep. KEEP THE BEST. The Destroyer. PS
