This is one of those unpretentious houses which surprise one with the amount of room they actually contain. ight g0ood rooms, besides two ample storerooms, are to be found in the house illustrated above. Besides these the large square Teception hall is al- most equal to amother room in it- i The exterior presents no striking features, if the unusually wide cor- nice, supported by brackets at the front gable, is excepted. The entire house is covered with stucco, even the soffits of the cornice, and the over- hang of the roof being so treated, while the main structure, the piazza and the hood over the side porch are shingled. From the broad piazza opens the large square reception hall, to the right of which is a gemerous cloak closet. Directly opposite the entrance are the stairs, while to the left, French doors admit to the living- room. Particular atention is direct- ed to the fireplace, which with the built-in book case at the end, and the way, occupies an alcove at the right of the living-room pro- per, which is 13.9 feet. A heavy beamed arch spans the entire space from wall to wall, giving, in ¢ junction with a similar beamed ar way between the living-room and the dining-room, a peculiarly spacious, substantjal and rich effect. The dining-room, 13.6x12.8 feet, is like the living room, amply lighted by group windows, and is a par- ticularly cheery apartment. Here is an artistically designed china closet Access to the kitchen, 10x10.6 feet, is had through the pantry, the kitchen also being reached through an eatry from a side door. Three bedrooms, 13.9x15, 13.9x14 and 98x10.6 feet, all with closets (one having two), a bathroom, and the indispensable linen closet are on the second floor. A flower box adds to the attractiveness, both inside and out. Two bedrooms, 12.6x12 and 10x10.6 feet, with very large Store- rooms, account for the space be- neath the roof.

Size, Color and Cleanliness All Count In Getting Better Prices. In the production of market eggs to- day quality counts above everything else. Low prices brought about by close competition and the heavy egg production of this season of the year mean that only the very best eggs will demand top quotations. Commission men and jobbers have frequently been unjustly condemned by producers of poultry products because of unsatis- factory returns on shipments of vari- ous kinds. This is especially true this time of year on market eggs. Many things enter into the question of qaulity in the grading of market eggs. Boston prefers a brown egg and will pay from two to five cents per dozen more for a case of well-graded brown eggs than for equally graded white eggs of the same quality. New York on the other hand will pay from three to ten cents per dozen more for white eggs than brown of the same quality. Springfield, a market half way between these two larger centers, will pay equally fgr brown or white, but, like all other good markets, de- mands that they be either one or the other and that they be uniform in size, shape and color, and absolutely fresh. Most farmers, either because they do not have enough eggs to pay to grade them or from carelessness or lack of time, put everything into their ship- ping crates, send them along to the city and take what they can get. This is a very poor policy in the handling of farm product and will not bring ctory profits to the poultry man. Eggs weighing less than two ounces should never he t into a case meant for. the best market. A case of eggs that does not weigh 56 pounds will not bring the top quotation, no matter how clean they are or how recently they have been laid. Eggs abnormal in size or shape should never be put into a crate of high grade eggs and it surely pays to end only clean eggs to market. The to produce clean eggs is never them to get dirty. In other keep the nests perfectly free filth and frequently disinfected. words, from Planer shavings make the best mater- ial for nests because they absorb mois- ture and keep away vermin and the hens do not scratch them away. Eggs should be gathered every day and dur- ing fthe heavy laying season twice especially if a sufficient number of nests are not provided and eight or more eggs are laid in_ one nest. Eges that are soiled should be cleaned oon as they are gathered, using a moist cloth, never washing them but rubbing the soiled spot with the help of some cleaning material. Eggs should be kept in a cool place at a temperature helow 50 degrees and they should be marketed at least every week and if possible twice each week. Pro- ducers who handle their products with- out regard for quality must expect un- atisfactory prices and as the poultry and will increase mu:erially. eggs” “fancy eggs’ FARM MANAGEMENT. Seventy Farms Have Been Studied In New London County. The extension service in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Agri- culture is carrying on Farm Manage- ment Demonstration work states H. F.

Several interesting incidents oe- curred in the twenty-ninth week of the laying contest at Storrs. In the first place nearly all the hens contending for individual honors have been rest- ing on their oars so to speak. Nearly all of them, however, got down to business again last week, notably the Massachusetts . Buff Wyandottes No. 229 that out’laid any other single hen in the contest during the first four months and was tied for first place at the end of the fifth month. The White Wyandotte No. 993 from New York state that was third best in her breed and fifth best in the competition at the beginning of the month has been broody for the first time. She is over this however and is now laying again. This hen did not yield a single egg for the first thirty-eight days of the con- test. A Connecticut Rhode Island ‘Red No. 410 from Durham is likewise busy again and at this writing is third best hen in the competition. Of the half dozen leading individuals out of (the thousand hens competing only one 'ap- parently, a Barred Rock No. 3 from Brookfield Center, Conn. has not as vet eased up et all. In consequence she now has a lead of five eggs over her nearest competitor whereas she had a_margin of only one eggs on May ist. Her record at this writing is 148 eggs which is just about twice the vield of the average he nin an entire year. First pen honors for the week go to Barron's English Leghorns with a yield of 59 eggs. This is the best weekly production of any Leghorn pen_and equals but does not surpass the Yan- dotte weekly record of 59 made in the twentieth week. Windsweep Farm’s pen of White Leghorns from Redding Ridge, Conn. and_Jonathan Collinson’s Black Leghorns from Garstang, Eng- land tied for second place with 55 eggs. One of these pens, the White Leghorns, led the competition for the first five weeks. The cold weather of early December, however, seemed to affect them adversely and they began to go. back, dropping out of tke ten leading pens entirely in the 13th week. They have, however, shown their abil- ity to come back. Last week they ap- peared on the roll of honor and in the 29th week moved up still another place. The Black Leghorns that tied with this pen have been steady plug- gers ever since the competition started. They have not before been mentioned as an honor pen for any week nor are they among the ten leading pens but they are too close to them for the comfort of several of those now in the list. Four pens of White Leghorns cwned by F. M. Peasley, Cheshire, Conn., Braeside Poultry Farm, Stroudsburg, Pa., Happlch & Danks, North Branch, Y.-and Jas. V. Thomas, Ballston Lake, N. Y., all tied for third place with 54 eggs each. The total production for all pens for the week amounted to 3952 eggs. ‘The ten leading pens to date are as follows: Ed Cam, Hoghton, near England, White Wyandottes Hillview Poultry Farm, St. Al- Vt, Rhode Island Reds 1129; Cetforth near Preston, P.

DISEASES IN POULTRY FLOCKS. Importance of Sanitary Conditions — What to Do When Symptoms Ap- pear. The health of a flock of poultry is due primarily to strong vigorous stock endowed with plenty of inherited vital- ity, and it is also important, in order to maintain good health, that the flock should be kept in a sanitary environ- ment. The birds should have clean, dry yards and houses kept free from all parasites, and the poultry man should watch carefully for the first ap- pearance of any kind of disease. In the successful management of a poul- try flock there is no more important factor than the maintenance of health, Because of the possible ravages of common diseases which result not only in many dead birds but aleo decreased esg production, it is very essential that are also somewhat better than on the average. The better farms are more diver- sified than the average having a lar- ger number of important sources of income. The better farms also have a greater proportion of their receipts from crops. In this respect many Connecticut farmers are failing. They are not raising enough cash crops. The survey record shows the far- mer his labor income, enables him to . know how his profits or wages compare with others in his com- munity and shows him the reasons for his success or.failure. treat individual birds which have any infectious disease. In such cases it is usually best to kill and properly dis- pose of the infected birds, and the best means of disposing of them is to burn them or bury them several feet in the ground. It is very dangerous to throw them in the bushes or bury them a few inches below the surface for prowling animals to carry about and possibly spread the infection. A poultry man must keep a watchful eye ‘on his flock to determine at once any abnormal condition which may appear in the form of loss of appe- tite, digestive disorders, eye or throat troubles, or any other suspicious con- dition. When such conditions are no- ted the trouble should be immediately diagnosed and the cause determined. If the whole flock seems to be afficted, elimination of the cause and a general flock treatment will usbally be ef- fective. Where a few individuals are affected they should be isolated and the building in which they have been kept be thoroughly disinfected immediately. In the appearance of almost any dis- ease of potash to the drinking water, cut down on the regular dry mash ration about one-half, end add charcoal in large quantities to the mash which is RAISING GOSLINGS. ‘When the goslings have been- hatch- ed twenty-four hours they must be moved with their mother to a good- sized coop, standing on short turf. For the first week some breeders give soaked stale bread or biscuit meal, mixed with chopped dandelions. Others feed on breadcrumbs for two days, and then give ground.oats mixed with the breadcrumbs and moistened with milk. At the end of a week a mixture of ground oats and boiled rice is substi- tuted, with some oats, wheat, or bar- ley of an evening. Pond water for drinking must be supplied in a shfllow dish. Do not let the goslings swim or run in long grass before they are a fortnight old. At the end of a fort- night the coop can be removed and the goslings allowed access to a pond. They require very little brooding af- ter that time. But keep them out of heavy rain while they are fledging, and let them sleep on a dry floor. SORE SHOULDERS. Soon extremely hot weather will be here and with the heavy summer work which will be found necessary to do upon the farm a great many sore shoulders will be found on our farm horses. This can be prevented to con- siderable extent should proper pre- caution and care be taken to fit the collar and also to see that the shoulder of the horse is kept clean. The re- moval of the heavy harness at the noon hour and the washing of the shoulder with cold water will keep the horse in much better condition. CHICKWEED IN LAWNS. Many lawns have been seen recently in which chickweed has been found. ‘Where such starts have been made this chickweed should be cut out and not allowed to spread further, as it will ruin the lawn. Some have asgked if there were fertilizers which would destroy the weed and not injure the grass. As far as is known, there is nothing which can be put on in such strength that it will kill the pest and not injure the desired lawn grasses. ACID PHOSPHATE IN ORCHARD. Many orchardists should use acid phosphate this year in their apple or- chards. Mature trees will require from 12 to 20 pounds per tree or about 600 pounds per acre. Acid phosphate will help the color of the foliage and fruit and will, to some extent, the forma- tion of fruit buds for next season’s crop. MANURING PASTURES. In experiments at the Midland Agri- cultural and Dairy College, which cov- ered a period of four years, pastures composed principally of cocksfoot, tall fescue, and white clover were fer- tilized with superphosphate and sul- phate of potash, and the yield in milk compared with pa.stures not so fertil- jzed.

Misled by Advertisements in Eastern Newspapers, Many Are Stranded. ‘Wichita, Kas., May 26.—Sixty unem- ploved men, drawn here by arvertise- ments in eastern newspapers, telling of the need for harvest hands, ‘today clashed with the police and put the of- cers to rout. The men had built a bonfire in an outlying section of the city, over which they were cooking. It is estimated that about 1,600 fdle men have come to Wichita and vicini= ty.
