NEST WITH RUNS.
Movable Eox Which Simplifies the
Handling of the Sitting
Hen.
For several reasons it is best to keep
a brooding hen within the range of
her nest instead of being allowed to
wander off and perhaps leturn to some
other nest. For the small raiser of
poultry a very good form of nests with
runs is shown in the drawing. Any
number can be constructed side by
side. Kach nest tun is If* inches wide
and high and the boards should be not
less than four feet long. Lath or thin
slats can be used as a covering at the
QUARTERS FOR BROODY HENS.
top and front, and at the lower edg«
of the front a board six inches wide is
to be made fast. At the back the end
is closed solid with boards and a can
opy is constructed with boards, having
a lid on hinges so the hens and nests
can be gotten at.
Boards are fastened two or three
inches from the ground and faced at
the front with a narrow strip to hold
straw in place and prevent the eggs
from rolling out. This keeps the nest
dry also, and when the whole crate is
moved about for sanitary reasons, the
nest is not disturbed, says the Orange
Judd Farmer. The lid snould be cov
ered with tarred r«per so as to make
it water proof, for the lid, being con
structed of several boards, would have
cracks large enough in it to let con
siderable water in during a storm.
When it rains it would be well to have
an old piece of canvas ready throw
over that part of the run next to the
nest so as to shed the water, for a
driving rain would sometimes wet a
hen and nest.
THE BEES AND CHICKS.
Stimulate with pure foods.
Overcrowding is poor economy.
Corner-loafing hens are unprofitable.
Where farming can be pursued with
profit, bees may be successfully kept.
Kindness works wonders among
poultry. It means more eggs and bet
ter health.
Store the honey product in a cool,
dry place.
Nothing irritates bees so much as
a sudden .iar.
No incubator can think. The think
ing apparatus must be supplied by the
operator.
Continually outcrossing with the
wild turkeys keeps our domestic tur
keys up to the standard in vitality,
but it also keeps up their inherited
tendency to roam about.
When picking out eggs for hatching
purposes choose only perfectly smooth,
ones of unifdTm size, neither too large
nor too small. Be careful not to let
them get chilled.
EASILY MADE NEST.
How Orange Boxes Can Be Made In
to a Very Serviceable Nest
for Fowls.
Orange boxes can be had for the ask
ing in almost every country and vil
lage grocery store
in the land. Such
a box, empty, is
shown in Fig. 1.
A lot of these
boxes can be made
useful in many !
ways about ttie
farm one way being shown in Fig. 2.
The boxes are plated upon their sides,
a narrow strip ot the cover being
nailed back at one side ot the top, as
shown. Arranged in tiers upon a board
shelf, they form excellent hens nests
for the poultry house. A lot of nests
can be made in a few minutes and all
can be taken out ot doors and cle med
whenever necessary. — Successful
Farming.
Makes Hens Lay.
There is no one thing better to
make hens lay than fresh bones from
the table. If one has no bone cutter,
a big stone and an old ax serve a good
purpose. Even the biggest, hardest
bones can easily he split a few times
and then pounded fine enough for the
fowls to swallow But hens are so
greedy for this diet that one has to
be careful or the hens' heads, as well
as the bones, will he cracked

Pure eggs in plenty are not produced
In such a place, says the Farm Jour
nal. Don’t expect a boy to enjoy

He will enjoy gathering eggs from
clean nests and in pure air.
Prevent Scours.
Sconrs in pigs can generally be pre
vented by feeding crushed oata and
barley run through a screen to re
move the hulls. Make a slop of them
and place In a low trough in the pen

SHEEP IN BRUSH ORCHARD
How One Fanner Utilizes the An
imals in Keeping Down the Brush
While Trees Are Growing.
Last year Austin Herrick, of Ohio,
told about planting trees iu brush and
turning sheep into the orchard, and to
the question: How does he keep the
sheep from killing the trees, he replies
in the the Rural New Yorker as fol
lows:
As soon as I cut and burn off a piec
of land 1 set out the trees 4(» by 4<: ie
alternately, dig holes large euo.;g.'. t»
set them only. I then put about one
bushel of cow manure close around
each tree for mulch; this manure will
not heat, and will not dry out so much,
and will keep the roots moist. 1 then
get poultry wire with inch mesh, cut
in strips six inches by three feet, roll
it around a broom handle, and then
put on the tree. 1 then form the head
well up. I try to buy my trees about
two years in advance, and set them in
nursery rows; get trees four or five
feet, and then when I set a pleee take
them up with plenty of dirt on the
roots, set them on a stone boat or low
wagon, and put them iu the hole, dirt
and all. They go right along this way.
It seems since they fumigated trees to
take a year or two to get them started
right.
I keep the brush that grows up in
the piece cut down, and in a short
time, if kept cut. the sheep will kill
it all out, hut you must keep it cut
down so they can browse it off. and In
about three years your orchard will all
he in good pasture with a good sod.
Once in awhile a sheep will get Co
gnawing trees, hut when they do so
you must take her right out and send
her to the butcher. I only took one
last year out of 70. She did not gnaw,
but would go straddle of a young tree
and bend it down and trim the top
up. It is easy to catch them. If one
gnaws the trees drive the flock slowly
up around the tree, and if not fright
ened she will run up to the tree for a
bite of bark. I keep salt In a box or
in some kettle or crock in the pasture
for the sheep all the time. I think this
makes a difference also.

ANIMAL TALK.
A little salt each day aids digestion
and increases the pig's appetite.
Overfeeding horses during the win
ter is quite as bad as underfeeding
while working.
Pick the cobs tip daily if corn is fed
in the ear. or broken feet or legs may
be the result.
If the bridle hits are put into cold
water for a few minutes, it will take
the frost out of them.
It is generally conceded that it
takes from to six pounds of grain
to make one pound of pork.
Cement can be used for the stand
ing place of the cows, but it should
be kept covered with bedding.
Keep the sow as long as she con
tinues to give you a good litter. Do
not turn her off simply because she is
old.
The manure in the horse stable Is
sometimes very injurious to the
horses’ feet, when it is left for days
at a time.
A good way to solve the sheep and
dog question is to have small flocks
and small enclosures fenced with dog
proof wire fence.
In sections where most farmers
keep sheep the dog question does not
give much trouble—public sentiment
favors the sheep.
Arid America to Be Productive.
In time the arid sections of the Unit
ed States will be among the most pro
ductive sections, as in those localities
the sunshine is about eternal and the
soil is rich in mineral food. It needs
but water and humus to make it bloom
and blossom. Great quantities of wa
ter are now going to waste that will
ultimately be turned back for the irri
gation of the land. Tablelands that
are now above the reach of the irri
gator will ultimately be reached by
the flume and the lateral. That land
is capable of enormous productivity.
Teaching Horse to Walk Fast.
If you want to teach a horse to
walk fast, put him by the side of a
horse that has a good gait If the
slow walker has any spunk, he will
spring In to keep up. and gradually
strike a faster pace. But you cant
educate spunk into some horses aay
more than you can into some men.-—
