With those who manega poultry for profit much depends on the person in control, as well as the fowls, if a fair supply of eggs is to be obtained. It {s not alone sufficient to provida a liber- al supply of food, but it must also be of a character to more thoroughly ac- complish the object desired. Corn is the staple article of diet, and answers well in one respect, which is to keep the fowl warm; but corn is lacking in many elements that enter into the composition of an egg. As the eggs are really manufactured by the hen, she serving as a factory in that re- spect, it becomes apparent that in or- der to produce eggs she must receive egg-producing material. We have in the ege the shell (carbonate of lime), and in the yolk and albumen (white) evorything that serves to create bone, meat, feathers and fat. The food that is to be given, therefore, should contain lime, nitrogen, phosphoric acid and carbon, substances which ex- ist In variable quantity in different foods, The lime is easily supplied in exc: y placing ground or pounded oyster shells within reach, and corn easily sustains the system with carbon, of which it contains a large propor- tion, farnishing nitrogen, but in winter it is a difficalt matter to procure it in some localities, and a partial subati- tute may be had for 1t in linseed meal, which contaius nitrogen in suffi- clent quantity for the purpose The phosphates are found in ground bone, wheat, and nearly all grains. When in confinement thera isa neceesity for adding to the comfort of fowls by providing warm but well ven- tilated quarters, These should be roomy, aud the fowls must not be crowded, as more eggs are usually pro- cured from a small number, in propor- tion, than from largar, and the roosts should all be on ths same level, and low. Ogster shells not only furnish carbonate of lime but assist in grind- ing the food in the gizzard, No mat- ter how sharp or hard any substance may be that is swallowéd by the fowl, the gizzard completely demolishes it and grinds it into an impalpable pow- der, from whence it is passed Into the inteatines, where the digestive organs extract all that can be appropriated for the nourishment of the body and eygs. In winter it must be borne in mind that animal heat is to be kept up as the first importance to egg production, and any deficiency «f food will quickly be made manifest in that respect, but less food will be required when the quarters are warm and dry. Tonics are sometimes helpful, and a little cop- peras occasionally in the drinking water 13 very invigorating, But sometimes, with the bast of feeding and care the hens will not lay, That is because some breeds, such as the Brahmas, Cochins and Plymouth ticks fatten very readily, and when a hen is too fat she will not lay. The Plymouth Rocks, especially, are fa- mous for beicg the beat and poorest layers, for they keep fat on very little, and, unless they can ba mads to work for a living, are dilatory In the mat- ter of laying, To do this it {s best to give the morning meal very early, which may be of mixed soft food, and as it will quickly digest, along in the evening they begin to get hungry, If Meat of some kind is best for- a fow inches of cut salt hay or leaves are thrown upon the floor of the fowl house, and the grains ecattersd through it and upon the floor, the fowls will ecratch for them and bo ex- ercised, which will not only add to their health and comfort, but prevent the excessive accumulation of fat. Corn should not be avoided altogether a8 food for fowls in good conditlon, Pure water and strict cleanliness are | also necessary; and with lyutemmic} a management and arrangement groater number of egge will be se- cured. Fertilizing Fruit Trees. Pacific Rural Spir.t. Many orchardists in California are awakening to the necessity of main- taining the fertility of their orchards by the application of manures of dif- ferent kinds, and it will be timely to introduce some facts concerning the method of application. There is a wrong way and a right way, and for- tunately the proper method can be shown by a serles of systematic expe. riments. A writer in the Country Gentleman gives the following: A rule adopted by old writers gave the length of the roots as equal to the length of the branches above. It is safe to say that this rule does not in- dicate generally more than a tenth of the ground which the entire roots | really occupy. Many years ago I made an experiment on a row of peach trees plantod in grsss and within a few feet of each other. They had been met three or four years, and were eight or nine teet high. - Within afew teet of the end of the row the ground was very rich with a heap of manure, Its stimulating effect on the nearest tree was such that the shoots made in one season were two feet and a half long. seven feet from the manured ground made ehoots fifteen inches long, and at eleven feet distance the shoots grew seven or eight Inches. At fif .een feet no perceptible effect of the manure was visible, the growth not exceeding | three inches. The ¢ xperiment showed that a decided benefit was gained to the tree at eleven feet distance through the roots on the one side, and that the roots formad a radiating circle at least twenty-two feet in diameter, The absurdity of the practice of applying a small heap of manure at the hase of the trank of the tree is obvious, Making Good Butter. Breeders' Gazotte, Batter is finished In the dairy, but not made there. The stamp of the dairywoman puts the gold in merket form; but the work must be cora- menced in the field os in the feeding { stables; und this leads at once to the consideration of feeding for butter, Daring the early, eunny summer months, when nature Is profuse cf favors, there is little to bs done be- yond accepting her bounty. The ten- der grasses are full ot the needed nu- trition, and they uffurd the constant supply of moisture without which the sacretion of milk s greatly lessened, Yet, at this season, as well as all others, a pure supply of water is abso- | It does not meet | lutely necessary, the requirement if cattle have a wet hole full of surface dralage in the pasture, or & frog pond, While it is not probable that the tadpoles and ' The tree which stood | | first bottle of Hunt's Remedy g3 wrigglers sometimes fiund in city milk have been drank by the thirsty cow, many Infusions do oxtst in such pools that are hardly eliminated or rendered entirely harmless by the wonderful milk secretions of the ani- mal.
