Young trees grow considerably more than Always use a good high grade -terfiliér which carries from 3 to 8 pei | cent of nitrogen and from 10 to 12 pe: ent gf phosphoric acid. i “Sofife varieties of trees require more Ftertilizer than others, but a safe rule 18 to apply about a pound of fertilizer 'fo eachf tree for each year in age. For instanee, a twenty-year-old tree should have%t twenty pounds. If you are cultivating the orchard apply it just ‘before la cultivation, while if the or- chard-is in sod apply it on top of the ‘grass, and the rains will take it down. Where. the trees are large apply the fertilizer over all the ground, excepting \n 8P of from four to six feet around 1 the truhk of the tree. At this point we find nearly all brace roots and fertilizer do verx little good there. On a younger tree apply the fertilizer well out be- yond the spread of the branches so that it’comes in contact with the feed- ing roots. The fertilization of the or- chard ‘costs so little and the results are so:femarkable that you simply can’t i m'ford 0 neglect it.” G Telling Age of Sheep. . A lamb has eight small first teeth on the lower jaw. When it reaches the jage ofjabout one year the middle pair 'are replaced by two permanent teeth. “At the'age of two, the teeth on either side of these permanent teeth are re- placed’with a permanent pair. At the age of three the next tooth on elther side gives way to a permanent tooth. | At the age of four the last or back is four years old ome cannot the teeth about the age. How- ever,-in purchasing sheep see to it that if has not lost any teeth or that the tqgth have not become long and z"shne 'peggy” in appearance.—T.

I am a great advocate of baving large numbers of chickens on a farm, writes a correspondent of the Iowa Homestead. Then I have found the single colony coops and colony houses are both indispensable. Grow to near maturity some fifty, more or less, of young ‘chickens in the coops, then as cool or freezing weather approaches place them in the quite large colony houses, allowing some eight to ten doz- en-to each building. Have both the coops and the colony houses clean and well ventilated at all times. Summer as well as winter de- mands clean -food, pure water and strictly sanitary surroundings, and the air at all seasons must be plentiful and pure. All coops and colony houses, I find, must be so constructed that there i8 the best of ventilation and yet for most of the time avold direct drafts. The first summer is the hard one for chickens. I have found that hen moth- ers are the thing out on the farms. The The little egg machines—the Leg- horns—are always in demand, not only with those who measure the worth of a flock of fowls by the number of eggs pfoduced, but also with the fanclers. They are -bred in several colors, but the white i the most popular. This 1s due per- haps because it is easler to breed white fowls than colored ones. The fowl pictured 1s a rose comb White Leghorn. flocks learn to range. The chickens get exercise, green food and many insects. After they are old enough to wean they range about from habit, and then I prefer the food that is given them be such things as wheat in the sheaf and German millet thrown to, them in the bundle. They scratch out the grain and seed and eat-only what nature craves. Such feeding is easy, health- ful and reasonably economical. I have. also found that wheat, rye, oats and German millet cut when fully ripe and |« stored in a convenient building in the sheaf are all-very fine winter as well as late summer foods. They give a change of dlet from one week to an- other, and, the fowls having to scratch and pick out the grain, they get much exercise, a thing they need. I am writing advice to farmers who have abundant reom for large flocks of chickens and can grow most of their food. There is room, too, for large lots and as many colony houses as will ac- commodate several hundred. I find there 18 practically no limit on a large farm to the number of chickens one can and should keep. Nothing else, pays better if all the conditions of proper food, shade, freedom from lice and mites, thorough ventilation of coops and buildings and keeping strict- ly sanitary surroundings are observed. Buy .the Best Fowls. ‘When buying pure bred fowls do not seek ‘“culls,” but endeavor to secure those that are good. A “cnll”, may have some fault—may be lacking in hardiness or may have been tried with unsatisfactory results. It will always be an advantage to visit the breeder and make a selection ‘rather than or- der by mail, unless the breeder is known as one who is reliable and P e Aol s lUSlNESS DIRECTORY .
