A Wisconsin farmer spent $1.26 for 100 printed postcards. He used these cards to advertise the fact that he of- fered seed corn for sale. As a result of this simple and inexpensive method of advertising he sold $800 worth of within a year. As roadside bulletin board on which he affixed notices in- dicative of the farm produce which he had to. sell was instrumental in in- creasing an Illinois farmer’s bank ac- count $1,000.

THE ANNUAL CLEANING UP OF THE INCUBATORS E. O. MORTON. About the middle of June the hatch- ing season is almost over, so the time has come for cleaning up the incuba- tors. Unfortunately it is frequently a great temptation to put off this work until winter, when it always seems as though there would be more leisure. But this is a great mistake and the re- sult invariably the same—dirty, germ filled incubators—and this just when they are the most needed. A tried and experienced poultryman has, of course, his own particular methods at such a time, but the novice | on the other hand, is often puzzled tq, know just how and with what to start in. The following suggestions, then, will be found helpful for those who have finlshed their first “incubator sea- son:” TFirst take out the trays, brush | them thoroughly and wash them with hot water, to which has been added a tablespoonful of some good disinfect- ant to a gallon of water. The washing over set the trays in the sun for an airing and to dry. Disconnect the lamps and give them and the flues a good cleaning, and when wiping out the lamp flue a milk bottle brush wiil Brush out jthe bottom of the incubator and_ go over it with warm water and the dis- infectant, as specified above. Varnish’ the Old Machines. Tf the machine has been in use for several seasons it should be wiped off with a damp cloth and the top, sides also, if it happens to be of the hot wa- ter type, empty out all the water, flll- ing it full again with fresh clean wa- ter, and leave it until needed for use again, when it should of course, be re- filled again, but do not leave it next winter where the water may freeze in it. All this may seem to the beginner to be a vast amount of unnecessary la- bor, but it is always well to remember the fact that it is possible a number of the little chicks may have been born with the germ of some disease, and therefore it is only by using the great- est of precautionary measures and the most thorough methods of cleanliness that one may be quite sure of having destroyed all the germ life to which fowls are so often subject. will be found that the most successful poultrymen, and the ones who carty off the blue ribbons at the shows, are invariably ‘those who leave no stone unturned to keep everything to do with theilr poultry houses and yards, etc., up date and in the most immaculate condition® and surely these are the men whose example must befollowed if success is looked for. GARDEN NOTES Hints From a Gardener's E. K. PARKINSON. Notebook. June, in spite of its rare days, is wunfortunately also an ideal mouth for insects of all kinds, these little crea- tures reveling in the warm weather and the bright sun, and unless we are continually on the lookout for them they very soon get the upper hand of us. But here let it be remembered that birds are invaluable in helping ‘to kepp @own insects, so that the king- bird, phoebe, song sparrow, catbird, Baltimore oriole, chirping sparrow, rose breasted grosbeak, house when and many others should be most em- phatically encouraged to build in-and around the house and garden.

Don't bear unnecessary burdens. Burdens of a bad back are heavy. Get rid of them. Doan’s Kidney Pills are for bad Lkidneys. For lame, weak and aching backs. Local endorsement proves their worth.

After the strawberry bed nas done fruiting, if it is to be kept over another year, go over it with a mow- ing machine or scythe, gather up the {leaves and burn whten dry; then plow a furrow or two on either side of the matted row, leaving a strip four feet wide; fill the furrows with stable ma- nure and harrow them well. The new leaves will soon start again, and the bed will. be nearly as good as ever. In the tomato bed watch for tomato worms, which are a great nuisance, and perhaps the best plan to get rid of them is to go over the vines by hand and pick them off. Keep the weeds out of the onion rows or they will soon choke out the young onions. Like rn, onions are surface feeders and must be continu- ally cultivated to do well. Fine cauli- +flowers are hard to raise. They re- | quire a constant supply of soil mois ture, and great care must be exercised to see that the heads do not become sunburned.
