MAUR, ‘With 150 square feet of ground suit- able for poultry, and devoting haif an hour every night and morning, with an extra two or three hours on Saturday, you should be able to add $200 or $300 to your income. My au- thority for this is my knowledge of a bank clerk whose home is beyond the city limits, who made $800 last year from a flock of 100 hens, and of a pestmistress who made $462, though neither of them gave more than a few hours a week to poultry, so it seems safe to say that any one with ordi- nary common sense and industry can make $300 or $400 . Any sort of old hens and coops wont do. A person who starts with very little capital will find it advisable to buy three good birds rather than twenty poor ones and make a clean, new house, even il it's only 3 by 6 feet, rather than patch up some vermin infested shanty. This is the time to lay the foundation of winter eggs and next year's proiits, so if you have a flock of any of the popu- Jar breeds hatch every one. But, if your flock consists of mongrels, feed well and get all the eggs you can, sell them for table use and with the pro- ceeds buy eggs from some Teliable deeler, or, what is better, sell a few oM birds and dbuy a small incubator. There is a good little metaN machine costing $6 which holds fifty birds. Tireless brooders from the same firm cost the same. Feed Only the Best. Chicks should have nothing to eat for forty-eight hours after leaving the sheil. The reason is the yolk is ab- sorbed immediately befors a chick Dreaks through the shell and must be allowed tlme to digest and pass through the bowels before any foreign substance is introduced or indigestion &nd diarrhea will result. Commercial chick feed is the best feed, being a mixture of seeds and finely broken corn, =specially put up for chicks. Qnce a day give a little Dot cheese or stale bread soaked in milk and_squeezed dry. When con- fined to brooders vegetable material must be added, such as lettuce leaves or tops of green onions chopped fins, Keep clean water, ground charcoal and fine grit always before them and remember, with really good Dbirds, Your profits come in the spring from selling eggs_for hatching or for day old chicks. Indeed you should not be- grodge the utmost thought and care to your poultry in the growing stage, for it is then you are building the foundation for a prefitable pouliry plant. PLANTING TREES. Mow They Beautify, Protect and En- rich Their Owners. MEADE FERGUSEN. there are so many beaut!ful specimens. Perhaps a short list may encoufage a trial. For flowering trees there are the | double flowering crab, English haw- thorn, pink horse chestnut and catal- pa. are the camperdown elm, weeping beech, variegated elder, River’s purple | beech and the linden.

MY ANGORA GOATS How They Pay the Mortgage. i GEORGE H. DACY. goats are profitable wage earners. ‘They clean up underbrush, | destroy _ weeds, yield profitable meat and mohair and improve soil fertility on a minimum of feed and care. They are also naturally browsers and relish Angora underbrush and weeds in_preference to luxuriant pasturage. Without feed; othér than what they rustle, grade Angoras will produce from three to six pounds of mohair per animal each year, which sells on the. markets at' from 85 to 60 cents per pound. -Well cared for pure breds often yleld as high as ten or twelve pounds of mo- hair to a shearing, while fleeces of special luster and over fifteen or eigh- teen inches in length sometimes bring as high as §5 or $6 per pound. The meat of the Angora is tender, well marbled and nicely flavored, and many. consumers eat goat meat and imagine that they are consuming lamb or muttos On the grade fat Angeras sell for from 4 to 6% cents a pound. The manure of the goaf rivals that of sheep in tonicing ailing soils. i First Aids to Farmers. Angoras are first aids to who desire to inexpensively subdue wild land. Twenty-five or thirty goats tured on 100 acres of bush land will ffect wonders in a couple of years to- ward reclaiming the idle land. It is Dest to dotate the goats from one small field to another so that the ani- farmers e mals are constantly gaining in live weight and at the same time xuing out the undesirable growth. Angeras ! will stand on their hind legs and browse all the leaves and twigs within their reach. They uniformly graze| over a fleld so that when they are through with the task of cleaning the land the field is in shape for plow- ing.

TWO EGGS IN ONE DAY BY HARRISBURG HEN. R. I. Red Biddy Distinguishes Herself In Storrs Contest. The twerty-second week of the third International Egg Laying con- test at Storrs developed a new high record for the weekly production. There was a net gain of 49 eggs or a total vield of 4646 egss for the week. Twelve individuals including White and Barred Plymouth Rocks, White and Buff Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds and Buff Leghorns laid seven eggs each_during the week. Number 2 hen in Pen 30, a Rhode Island Red from Harrisburg, Pa., particularly dis- tinguished herself by producing two eggs on Thursday. The Enzlish pen of White Wyandot- es owned. by Tom Barron got first place for the week with a yield of} 59 eggs. Frank L. Tuttle's pens of| Barred Plymouth Rocks fom Ashland, Mass., were a close second with G eggs to their credit. Albert T. Len- zen's White Rocks from North Attle- boro were an equally close third with a yield of 57 eggs for the week, thus it will .be noted that Massachusetts got away with more than her share of honers for the week. A week or two ago the manage- ment of the competition“gave out the chick feeding formulas on_ which the experimental pens of Leghorns were reared. It is one of these same pens < was tied for second place of all pens in the competition and which at this writing is occupy- ing second place by a margin of eight eggs and has a total yield of 752 ezgs since Nov. 1st.

I eat plenty of good, nourishing food.” 'The reason js just tais: You cannot get fat, no matter how much you eat,” unless your digestive organs assimilate the fat-making elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste.
