As ■the nests are all alike, it makes ■no difference which nest she chooses to ■brood in — it can be moved to the end ■and thus does not obstruct the passage. ■About two inches of moist sand are put ■ into the bottom of each nest before the ■ s I FIG. 2.—GROUND FLOOR OF POULTRY ■ hen is set; the straw nest is built there ■ on and the eggs are given her.

T)r Henry Stewart, says the lowa Homestead, once said that the greatest cause of sickness and death among poultry is overfeeding. The common practice is to give the fowls all they will eat, as if fowls were wiser than hogs and knew when they had enough, cowls and hogs, and even cows and horses, when they get at a meal bin never know when to stop until they are gorged full to the top of the throat, and then trouble begins. First, there Is indigestion, then fever, then cholera or fever and gangrene of the intestines, or inflammation of the mucous mem brane, which is catarrh or roup, or an t irax, which is black comb, and other atal disorganizations of the muscular tissues and liver. In these cases medi cine is of little avail, and the only rem edy is a sharp little ax, which might Justly be fitted in the top of the medi cine chest as the most effective remedy •or most of the diseases of poultry.

A,< B *ld to He Mach Mora Baccma fol Than Men. t Is said by those who claim to be in p condition to know what they are pt king about that the woman who j es fruit culture, farming, ranch- L “ stock raising will make a sne- L. ou * °f it nine times out of ten. bn^ en are ’ * n P ro Portlon, very mnch am i° s ? cceßßful than men, so says this iv orit y> frr two 'reasons. One is, *v 7 *r® accustomed to sit down when *- - y°rk is done, and find entertain- ment in some way without going out side for it. Another is, that they do ■'.ot spend all of their loose change at ihe j-rog-shop and the corner grocery it is this constant drain on the man s resources that keeps him continually short. He has very little idea, if lie lias ever stopped to consider the mat ter, how much of his substance goes in drinks, in a box of cigars here and a little sport there. Women, for evident reasons, do not indulge in this kind of thing, therefore all that they collect jsm be used to further the interests in hand. It may be 6aid, besides, that women are more attentive to their business, and, naturally, very much more careful of young animals and plants and the little things that need coaxing and coddling. One of the trials of the woman who prefers out-of door life is the difficulty she finds in getting proper help indoors in order that she may not wear herself out in trying to do both kinds of work. After the farm and the stock have been cared for, she is in no condition to come in and cook meals and wash dishes and should never undertake such tasks. In California it is almost the rule that the women who take up out-of door work make money at it. There is no reason why they should not do the same everywhere. Wherever there is land and a market, women can get a good living from the soil, and can so arrange their affairs as to have an abundance of leisure for study and self-improvement, as well as whatever amusements their environments will permit. Quite a number of women have found their health entirely re stored by taking up open-air occupa tions. One in California has set out several thousand trees, and her fruit and garden products furnish her with a good income. In floriculture women have been eminently successful, and quite a num ber of them are pursuing this business with profit to themselves and the greatest satisfaction to their custom ers. Uortlculture, in all of its branches, is suited to women, and there are not a few veterans in this line who predict that, within the next ten years, half of this business will be in feminine hands. —N. Y. Ledger. CHEAP ICE HOUSE. Probably the Mott Economical Building That Can Ue Put Up. The cut shown below is the cheapest building that can be constructed for storing ice. It may be built as long or short ns desired, varying with the amount of ice to be stored. It is not made for beauty but for service. Ever greens should be planted on each side, as they help to keep the house more cool in hot weather. For its construc tion, boards 16 feet long are used, longer or shorter according to the ca pacity desired. The girths may be of vwtiwrw / j \ /ftj j ’uV ICE PRESERVATION MADE EASY. 2x3 or 2x4 scantling and 3 feet apart. Shingles are not required. The cracks on the outside may be covered with boards or battened. Such a house will be in serviceable use at least 20 years. The ground should be dug out a foot deep. Two xloors may be made, one above the other and each 3x5 feet. At A the boards are cut sufficiently to al low putting in sawdust. The filling in the spaces 1$ is also made with saw dust. The filling is less at the top than the bottom, as the top will be used be fore hot weather sets in. Being built in this shape there will be no pressure on the sides should the ice melt more at the bottom than the top. An ice house of the dimensions here described will contain about 35 tons. —John L. Davenport, in Farm and Home. FACTS FOR FARMERS. Shelter and care are cheaper than food for animals. Clover hay and corn fodder are the best feeds for milch cows. Turkeys of about ten pounds in weight find the readiest sale. In feeding cut green bones allow one pound to every sixteen hens. Fattening sheep do best confined in small pens without the use of yards. Milk is a great egg food, as it is chemically similar to the white of an egg, being rich in albumen. The shortage of feed has been a great educator, and it is probable that here after farmers will care for and save their fodder as they now do their hay. If butter is long in coming, stir in three tablcspoonfuls of good dairy salt to every two gallons of cream and churn at a temperature of about 6ixty degree*. The annual value of eggs and poultry imported by Great Britain amounts to 827,467,000. The supplies come from countries as remote as Russia, Turkey, Egypt and Morocco, as well as from Canada. Americans consume only about four and a half pounds of cheese per capita, while tne English people consume more than three times that amount. Cheese makers should exert themselves to stimulate consumption. Slightly Changed. A young Colorado mining engineer, whom we will call Morton (according to Harper’s “Drawer"), was once seated in a chair in a Denver barber shop un dergoing a shave. The talk turned on the case of a man who, being on trial for murder, had been recognized by visitors to the courtroom as a young theological student from a middle state, where he had been the possessor of % spotless reputation and a totally different name. The conversation thereupon drifted to the subject of changed identities. Morton’s barber rubbed the razor on the strop reflective ly and said: "Yes. it’s surprising how many men change their names after they get out west. By the way, Mor ton, what was your name back east?” “Mister Morton,” was the quiet reply I Contagions.

KEDERICK CITIZEN, FRIDAY MORNING FEBRUARY <2. 15. FAffifitfoEH. HOW TO DRY WOOD. Tb Pl.u Succeufaliy I’ar.ued by an Ohio Farmer. In the early autumn I had a quantity of wood sawed, stove length but not split. In early December I got time to 6plit it, and as it was likely to be wanted for the fire before spring I set about drying it, which is not an easy matter, as every farmer knows. I adopted a plan which worked well on a former occasion, and which is illus trated in the drawing. It simply consists in piling the wood “cob-house” fashion, the sticks being piled in pantagou or hexagon form, the latter being the best, the piles being built as high as one can reach. The piles may be in a double rank with cor ners just touching, so as to give mutual support, and wide boards may be placed on top of each row slanting outward so as to shod the rain away from the wood. Bark may be used, or the top of each pile finished with wood laid close with a rapid slope toward the outer side of the pile. Even without cover, wood laid up in such piles dries very rapidly, wind, sun and air, as well as frost, having full chance at each stick. This morning I piled in the loose form of the drawing a lot of wood that had lain in a conical pile just as split, through a three days’ rain. It was thoroughly wet and with the damp at mosphere and close lying sticks it would not have dried perceptibly be fore another storm, but piled so that the air and sun and a trifle of wind could get at it, it looked quite dry in four hours, and after eight hours I be lieve has dried more than it would have done in two weeks in a close pile. The night freezes will ulso get in their work, aad a mouth from the time of piling the wood will be about as well dried as if, ranked up, it laid until next May. Every woman who ever put out a wash in winter, knows how clothes will freeze dry, even when there is no sun, and the action of frost is the same in the case of wood, the drying being most rapid in the case of finely split wood. Piled us illustrated, all the dry ing forces of nature except extreme hcat'have full sway, and it-is possible to have tolerably dry wood in March even if not split until the leisure of Decem ber.—L. B. Pierce, in Ohio Farmer. ROTATION OF CROPS. A Practice That Asulat# In the Thorough Extermination of Weeds. Rotating the farm with different crops serves not only to prevent loss of fertility, but also assists in killing weeds with no extra cost than that re quired for cultivating the crop that may be grown during the season. Corn has proved of as much value to farmers in compelling them to kill weeds as it has in providing grain and fodder, and if a farm should be devoted wholly to the crops that are drilled or broad casted, and which cannot be cultivated —such as wheat, rye, barley and oats — there would arrive a time when weeds would have full possession. To pre vent this condition of affairs the farms are made to grow crops that must of necessity lie cultivated, and in so doing there is a saving of labor in the killing of weeds. The rotation with corn as the only cultivated crop, however, is too limited, as the land is thus made to produce grain of some kind every year, which is detrimental, as depriving it of certain plant foods and leaving an excess, com paratively, of that which cannot be utilized by grain crops. One cause of weeds flourishing on ' some soils is that they thrive on plant ' foods left over by the grain crops, a condition which renders the soil impov erished for other grain crops, yet very fertile for weeds because the weeds are able to get a good start, make rapid growth, secure abundant moist ure below the surface and deprive the land of that which was not utilized by the crops, the result being that the soil is still further impoverished. This may be prevented by growing root crops after corn, to be followed by clover or some grass crop. No two crops of the same kind should be grown on the land in succession, and a crop that is sowed or drilled should be followed by a planted crop the next year, to keep the soil clean. Wheat, corn, oats, potatoes, corn and clover, followed by wheat again, is a rotation practiced by many progressive farmers; but turnips, carrots, beets, cabbage, millet and peas or beans are added to the list whenever it can be done with advantage. —Colman's Rural World. Earl j Maturity Mean* SncoeM. Do not forget the rock upon which all future meat products can success fully rest is that of early maturity. If we are not prepared to stand on this, we had better not try to stand at all. Just what constitutes early maturity needs some definition. Conditions must determine this, but in round numbers for cattle it should be full market weight or weight which it is most con venient to attain, sale value considered, at 24 to 30 months of age. Baby beef would be better if baby beef was in demand, but it is not of ready sale. — Colman's Rural World. SICK DRAFT HORSES. Treatment la Uie In the N*w York Fir* Department. Bran stands decidedly foremost as the food most generally in use for the invalid horse. It acts as a laxative, is frequently tempting to the appetite, and easy of digestion. There is no part of the general treatment more universal than offering this substance as a change of food. Does the horse 6how slight symptoms of cold or fever, a warm bran mash is a convenient plan of steaming, and constantly of soothing the irritable mucous membranes of t’>ie air passages; it is a suostitute for t*ve more stimulating diet he is accustomed to, and gently promotes the activity of the digestive apparatus; it is also a convenient medium for the giving of certain simple remedies. When it is necessary to administer purgative medicine, a bran mash or two renders the bowels more susceptible of its action, and a smaller drug is therefore required to produce the desired effect, i llran mashes may be given hot or cold —cold are, perhaps, quite as grateful to the horse—but the nibbling of the hot mash in catarrhal affections is par ticularly beneficial from the necessary inha.ation of the steam. Of all the roots with which horses are tempted, the carrot, as a rule, is the favorite, and, perhaps, the most beneficial, it is said to be somewhat diuretic in its ■ effect, and to exercise a salubrious in fluence on the shin. Certain it is that a sick horse may be coaxed into eating carrot when disinclined to partake of other nourishment, with the greatest beneficial results. For the ailing horse carrots are most valuable as an article of diet, and a few may be given with advantage to a horse in a healthy con dition. Oatmeal is extremely nutritious, and as a food for the convalescent horse is most valuable; the bruising process the ' grain has undergone breaks the husk : and renders it more easily acted upon i by the digestive organs. It is usually given in the form of a gruel, and in that form it is one of the most essen tial articles of diet for the infirmary. Linseed is decidedly to be included in the sick-diet roll. It is nutritious, and from its oleaginous nature soothing to tlie frequently irritable mucous mem brane of the alimentary canal, and hence is particularly to be recom mended in the treatment of sore throats. Nor is its bland effect local only; its more general influence is par ticularly observable in affections of the kidneys.—N. Y. Tribune. Enjoyed tins Information.

J^OTICK The attention of parents and teachers Is call ed to the law which requires that all rhl.dren , Hhall have been duly vaccinated Indore being received in any school. The provisions or the Act include all school*, whether public or private, and although II Is believed that, it lias been rather better ob served In this county than In ma.iy others of the Htate, yet In tire considerable proportion of Instances It has been disregarded or evaded. Although there does not exist at the present time a single known case of smallpox within the limits of the State, yet It has prevailed in the United states in afar gteate/ number ol localities than Is usual at. this season or the year, and may at any time make its appear ance in this county. The law has made fair provision for the com | pensation to physicians for vaccinating those whose mean** render It difficult to pv the usiihl fee for such services, and pure and relia ble vaccine nmtteecan be gratuitously procu red iiom Dr. Yeaekle, Htate Vaccine Agent, at Hal timore.
