felly stepped beyond tho safo limits of
decent everyday society and paid for it
heavily.
Ho km", too much in the first in

Dative life. But will never do so

Deep away in the heart .if the city,
behind Jitha Megji's busteo, In s Amir
Ruth's gully, whil h ends in a dead
wall pierced by one grtited window. At
the head of the gully is a big cowbyro,
end the WUllson eitler Bide of the gully
uro without windows. Neither Suchet),
Singh nor Gaur Chand approves of hiy?
women folk looking into the world. At
Durga Cbaran had be. n of their o/pin
ion, ho would have been a happioy man
tcday, and little Bisesa wonldi bave
been able to knead her own braid. Her
room looked out through One grated
window into the narrow dfark gully,
where tho sun never enm/; and where
the buffaloes wallowed iii/flio blue slime
She was a widow, about! 15 years eld,
and sho prayed the gt^ds day and night
to send her a lover, Tor she did not ap
prove of living aloufe.
One day the nin/n ? TrejagO his name
was?came into/Amir Nath's gully on
an aimless waiadering, and after he had
passed the brtmaloeaBtuinbled over a big
heap of cattue food.
Then bio saw that the gully ended in
n trap ipid heard a little laugh from
behind/ the grated window. It was u
pretty little laugh, and TrejagO, know
ing/ that for all practical purposes the
oltH "Arabian Nights" are gi tid guides,
went forward to the window and whis
pered that verse of "Tho Lovo Hong of
liar Dyali" which begins:
C'uii a man Statut upright In tho fnco of the
nuked mm or u lover lu tlio presence of his bo
loved?
If my feet full tue, O heart of my heart, urn
1 to blame, being blinded by tho glimpse of
your beauty '/
There camo tho faint tchinks of a
woman's bracelets from behind tho
grating, and a HHle voice went on with
tho song at the tilth verso:
Alas, alas! Can tlie moon tell tho Lotus of hor
lovo when the gate of heaven Is shut und the
clouds gather for the mill8?
They have taken my beloved mid driven her
with tho pnok horses to the north.
There are iron chains on tho feet that wuro
?et on my heart.
Call to the bownion to make ready
Tile voice stopped suddenly, and Tro
jago walked out of Amir Nath's gully
wondering who in the world could have
capped "Tim Love Song of liar Dyal'
so neatly
Next morning, as ho was driving to
office, an old woman threw a packet
into his dogcart. In the packet was the
half of a broken glass bangle, one flower
of the blood red dbak, a pinch of hhusa
or cattle food and 1 1 cardamoms. That
packet was a letter?not a clumsy, com
promising letter, but an innocent unin
telligible lover's epistle.
Trejago knew far too mnch about
these things, as I have said. No Eng
lishman should lie able to translate ob
ject letters. But Trejago spread all the
trifles on the lid of his office box and
began to puzzle them out.
A broken glass bangle stands for a
Hindoo widow all India over, because,
when her husband dies, a woman's
bracelets are broken on her wrists. Tro
jugo saw the meaning of the little bit
of the glass. The flower of tho dhak
means diversely "desire," "come,"
"write" or "danger," according to tho
other things with it. Uno cardamom
means "jealousy. " but when any arti
cle is duplicated in an object letter it
loses its symbolic meaning and stands
merely for one of a number indicating
time, or, if incense, curds or saffron be
sent also, place. The message ran then
"A widow ? dbak flower and hhusa?
at 11 o'clock." Tho pinch of bhusa en
lightend Trejago. He Haw?this kind of
letter leaves much to instinctive knowl
edge?that tho bhusa referred to the
big heap of cattlo food over which he
had fallen in Amir Nath's gully, and
that tho message must come from tho
person behind the grating, she being a
widow. Ho the message ran then: "A
widow, in the gully in which is the head
of bhusa, desires yon to come at 11
o'clock."
8o bo went that very night at 11 into
Amir Nath's gully, clad in a boorka,
which clonks a man as well as a wom
an. Directly tho gongs in the city made
the hour tho little voice behind the
grating took up "The Lovo Hong of liar
Dyal" at tho verse where tho Paythan
girl calls upon Hnr Dyal to return. The
song is really pretty in tho vernacular.
In tho English you miss tho wail of it
It runs something liko this:
Alono upon tho house tops, to tho north
I turn and watch the lightning In tho sky?
The glamour .f thy footstopa In the north.
Come buck to mo, beloved, or I diol
Below my foet tho Btill bazaar Is laid;
Far, far beloW tho weary camels Ho?
Tho camels and the captives of thy raid.
Conio buck to me, beloved, or I diet
My father's wlfo Is old and harsh with yonro,
1 And drudge of all my father's house am I.
fiiy bread Is sorrow, nnd my drink is tears.
* Comu buck to mo, beloved, or I diet
' As tho pong stopped Trejago stepped I
up under tho grating and whisp'jvud.
"I am here."
1 Blsesa was good to look-upon.
Piatnight, 7/tia the beginning of
Hp**.Vigo things and of a donblo
do wild that Trejago today somo
uxnes wonders if it wore not all a
dream. Bisesa or her old handmaiden
who had thrown tho object letter had
detached tho heavy grnting from the
brickwork of tho wall, so that tho
window slid inside, leaving only a
squnro of raw masonry into which an
active man might climb.
In tho daytime Trejago drovo
through his routine of office work or
put on his calling clothes nnd culled on
the ladies of tin station, wondering how
long they would know him if they
knew of poor little Bisesa. At night,
when all the city was still, camo tho
walk nnder the evil smelling boorka,
tho patrol through Jithn Megji's bnsteo,
the quick turn into Amir Nath's gully
between tho sleeping cnttlo and tho
dead walls, and then, -last of all, Bl
sesa and tho deep, even breathing of
the old womnu who slept outside the
door of tho baro littlo room that Dnrga
Cbaran allotted to his sistor's daughter.
Who or what Durga Cbaran was Tre
jago nevor inquired. And why In tho
world ho was not discovered and knifed
never ocenrrod to him till ids madness
was over, and Bisesa? But this comes
later.
Blsesa was an endless delight to Tro
Jago. Sho was as ignorant ns a bird,
and her distorted versions of tho rnmors
from tho outside world that had reached !
her in hor room amused Trojngo almost
as mnch as her lisping attempts to pro- !
nonnce his namo?Christopher. The
first syllable was always more than she
conin manage, nml she made funny lit
tlu gestures with her row leaf bauds, us
ono throwing tho name away, and then,
kneeling boforu Trejago, asked biro, ox- :
actly an mi English woman would do/
if hu weite sure ho loved her. Trejojgo
swore that ho loved her more than utny
ODS else in the World, which was yruo.
After a month.of this folly U>o cxi
gencies of inn other life compelled Tro
jago to hu ospeeiully attentive to a lady
of hin acquaintance. The dews How In
the usual mysterious faishion from
month to month till Bisresa's duenna
b< urd <<f it and told BWsa. Tho child
was so troubled that did tbe house
hold work evilly ud/ w?? beaten by
Durga Cbaran'a wiwi* in consequence.
A week litter ly/sc-ia taxed Trejago
with the flirtation. Sho understood no
gradations andApoke openly. Trejago
laug' ed, and ^isesa stamped her littlo
feet littlo ft/ot, light as marigold flow
ers, that y mid lie in tho palm of a
man's on/ band.
Mucbi that Is writton about "oriental
passion) and Impulsiveness" is exagger
a ted/and compiled at secondhand, but
a liMtle nf it is true, and when an Eng- '
li/shman tlnds that littlo it is quite us!
/f tat tling as any passion in hie own
proper life. Bisesa raged and stormed
ami dually threatened to kill herself if
Trejago did not at once drop tho alien
meiusnhib who had come between them.
I Trejago tried to explain and to show
I her that ehe did liot understand these
I things from a western standpoint. Bi
Besu drew herself up and said simply.
"1 do not. 1 know only this?it is
not good that I should have mado you
dearer than my own heart to me, sahib.
You are an Englishman. I am only a
black girl"?she was fairer than bur
gold in the mint?"and tho widow of
a black man. "
Then she sobbed and said -. "But, on
my soul and my mother's soul. I lovo
you There shall no harm come to yon
whatever happens to mo."
Trejago argued witL tho child and
tried to soothe her, but she seemed
quite unreasonably disturbed. Nothing
would satisfy her savu that ull relations
between them should end. Ho was to
go away at one". And he went. As he
dropped out at tho window sho kissed
his forehead twice, and ho walked homo
wondering.
A week, and then three weeks, passed
without a Bign from Bisesa. Trojugo,
thinking that tho rupture had lusted
quite long enough, went down to Amir
Nath's gully for tho fifth time in the
three weeks, hoping that his rap at the
sill of the shitting grating would be an
Bwered. Ho was not disappointed.
There was a young moon, and ona
stream of light fell down into Amir
Nath's gully and struck tho grating,
which wits drawn away as ho knocked.
From the black dark Bisesa held out
her anus into tho moonlight. Both
hands hud been cut off at the wrists,
anil the stumps were nearly healed.
Then, as Bisesa bowed her head bo
tweon her anus and sobbed, some ono in
the room grunted like a wild beaat, und
something sharp ?knife, sword or epeaf
? thrust at Trejago in his boorka. Thfl
Btroko missed his body, but cut into one
of the muscles of tho groin, and hi
limpid slightly from tho wound for the
rest of his days.
The grating went into its place.
There was no sign whatever from in
side the house, nothing but tho moon
light strip on the high wall und the
blackness of Amir Nath's gully behind.
The next thing Trejago remembers,
after raging and shouting like a mad
man between those pitiless walls, if
that ho found himself near tho river ui
tho dawn was breaking, throw uwny
his bnorka and went homo bureheuded.
? ????? ?
What tho tragedy was?wbethar Bi
sesii hud in a tit of causeless despair told
everything or the intrigue had been
discovered and she tortured to toll,
whether Durga Chilian know hia name
and what became of Bisesa?Trojugo
does not know to this day. Something
horrible had happened, and the thought
of what it must havo been comes upon
Trejago in tho night now and aguin
and keens him company till tho morn
ing. Ono special feature of the case is
that he does not know wbero lies the
front of Durga Charan'a house. It may
open on to n courtyard common to two
or more houses or it muy lio behind
any ono of the gutes o.' Jitha Megji's
bustee. Trejago cannot tell. Ho cannot

There is nothing peculiar about him,

Stock HnlnliiK For Yothir Farmern.
Young men who are Just starting In
tho business of farming should make
up their minds as to what kind of stock
they will bandlo und should secure tho
best of the kind that can be obtained,
for hy so doing they are laying tho
foundation for a fortune inter on.
There Is no money to be made lu rais
ing scrub stock, says a correspondent
of The rrairlo Farmer. Suppose one
man feeds a bunch of common steers
and another a bunch of high grades.
It will take the same amount of feed
nnd perhaps more for the scrub lot to
prepare the animals for market^fheli
when they art! sold ih'* Vilar'ket will be
I from SOjCeatS to $1 higher In favor of
tlreliigh grade cattle, and the owner of
the scrub lot has lost just that much,
for tho ' 'bor nnd expense of raising
tho f S have been the same. Nor
Is th. . The man who is satisfied
to bann., poor stock never has any
thing that will induce a buyer to offer
n fancy price for from tho fact that his
cattle never attract any attention. The
cattle I would advise the j'oung farmer
to batldlo wotdd bo tho Shorthorns.
flPhoy are not only beef cattle, but they
are fair milke.s and average butter
makers. Their fine form and beauty
aro attractive to the eyes of buyers.
But they must he well taken care of.
They must bo provided with good shel
ter and not allowed to run out In the
stalkfields all winter. They must be
fed well so as to keep them In good
condition.
Sheep In the Northweit.
Of the sheep In the northwest tho
Washington I'ost-Intelllgencer says:
"In eastern Washington, where sheep
raising Is one of tho important Indus
tries, tho sheep owners have found
woolgrowing to bo profitable again,
nnd tho flocks have increased both in
number and In value. It is reported
that many of the sheepmen hnvo seen
their property virtually double in value
during the past four years. In Oregon,
which Is even more of a sheep state
than Washington, tho samo gratifying
ehnng is to bo noticed. Something
like ,>,.)00,000 sheep aro now owned in
that state. In 1800, according to tho
government reports, Oregon's flocks
numbered 2,680,040. Recent Investiga
tions demonstrate that in Oregon at
least there in no other Industry which
has been stimulated and made more
noticeably prosperous than that of
S&Oc'BBS AND TIME TO ENJO\'
j I-111.
Senator Clreety, ol South Dakota,
Maid at an Institute last winter thatnianj
farmers might well have Ibis inscrip
tion on their tombstones: "Stopped
doing chorea Oil BUCll It date," instead
of saying thoy died. This Isa rather
startling way of putting a groat truth.
Bui IhO tlOUblO is that those to whom
our text carries a lesson will not hoed
any ordinary message. They are doing
a certain way, have done it for a long
time, and it Is no easy task to make
them think there is a better way. Now,
my good friends, throw aside for a
few minutes your inherited notions,
your prejudices, and listen to me and
sec if there is not sound sense in what
1 ?i\y. Thousands of you have so
many thlup" to <lo well ?nu simply can
not do all ol them Well, You have so
many chores and little jobs outside of
the r< gular large ones that the hours of
uaylighl, even in summer, are hardly
long enough to enable you to gel
through. As Henry Vau Dieser, of
N. V.. says: "You go to bed tired out
and then have to gel up hi fore you are
rested." Von have little lime for re
creation and Hoctal intercourse. Of
course there is an excu-e for such
persistent work when one is in debt
and tr.vitig to pay for his home. But
even then thorn is a question about its
paying. I believe one can usually so
manage as to get along just as fast and
not be so much tied up to this work.
Anil then he can got more out of life
as he goes along. When the best of
one's life is spent in working early and
late and almost constant!) to get ahead,
the habit is likely to become so tixed
that one will not be able to take
comfort in later 3ears when be be
comes abundantly able to. Can not
you think of many who are in just this
llx do-day? Do you nol know many
men and women who will work and
drudge and save lo the very end, never
fully enjoying the fruits of their in
dustry, only to leave much property,
that will usually be a curse to the
children who were thus brought up?
'?As the twig is bent so the nee in
clines." Work, and work hard and
persistently, dear friends, for a reason
able nmouut of the comforts and luxur
ies of tins life, but do it within bounds.
Take lime for rest and recreation as
regularly as you work.
There is no longer any money in
half doing any thing. A few things
thoroughly well done will actually pay
you bettor than more things a part of
which have to be slighted. By working
this line you may really be able lo put
on in less hours thai) you do now and
slill make more. And many of you can
now puroluiSO some things you produce
and be the gainers. Von can thus get
rid of little cares and worries and make
as much by simply doing a iiltle more
in some big line, where you will nol
notice the difference. The writer has
Worked this all out ye.ns ago, on
his farm. Beginning when he was
badly in debt lie worked his way out
on this plan. The regular work in
summet began at 7 a. 111. ami ended
at b p. m., as a rule, with an hour out
for dinner. In order lo have as lew
chores ami odd jobs as possible lor
morning and night, we dispensed with
all pigs ami chickens ami many other
things. We did not make our own
bullerat all Two men were kept, as
a rule, and they only had to feed and
Clean the horses ami milk one cow in
the morning, and the same chores
after U at night. Thus we wcie able
to have breakfast and supper at 0.210,
with little work before llie one and
none aller llie hitler. Our crops were
so planned thai there was no great
rush necessary at any time. Wo found
that good men, such as we kept, would
do as much in lU hours as men or
dinarily did who worked from sun lo
sun. The truth is. I believe we made
more money working this way. 1
rarely did anything myself boforo 7
O'clock or aller f.. Wife ami 1 wore
on en out driving when some farmers
were, still working, and I think we got
ahead about as last as any of them.
Now don't say we were favorably
situated. We were not at first. We
have, worked from daylight in the
morning until dark at night began that
way, and then we determined to make
the situation change.
Tor nearly a quarter of a century we
kept no pigs or chickens, had no gar
den to speak of, made no butter, but
just raised clover, potatoes and wheat.
One cow was kept to give us milk and
cream. We dispensed with calves,
colls, oals, corn and lots of oilier things.
We. bought what we ncodsd that we
did not raise, ami paid on our debts or
laid up a nice sum of money yearly,
and had considerable tune to en joy life.
Some live jears ago I wished to get
out of potato growing and the hard
work connected with it. We, had
made enough, so it was not necessary
to look to ibe financial part as closely.
So we began a gradual change, am!
our son has been wot king into dairying
instead of potato growing. Some
thought we were going to add to our
sources of income, but they were mis
taken. All that is done on the farm
now is to care for tin; dairy andjffl'OW
hay lor theni and wheat. Th^Harc
no chickens, no pigs, practicaD^^Mh
ing else only thai must :
or four calves in order Joj?e?^rm7niest
.C9Wfc" -K?rJerl, of COUl'SC, cannot bring
his work quite as nearly within the 1(1
hours as we did; he must milk before
breakfast, but on Hie other hand he is
not crowded as much during work
hours a part of the season as we used
to be. Now, I am not telling of these
tilings expecting that you can do just
as wo have, but rather lo show you the
principle that will biing you success
and give you time teen joy it. In a re
cent article you were told how Air.
Grcely accomplished llie sonic thing
way off in Dakota on a sheep farm,
under very different conditions. Of
course there are some I realities in the
newer Bottled parts of the country
where oik; might have lo do quite dif
ferently. The conditions there are
something as I hey were here 60 01
more years ago. Wo have been able
to buy anything we wanted handily,
and usually could truthfully say, as
Mr. (iro.ely did, that by so doing we
made more money than the friend who
sold to us. This came from doing throe
things on a comparatively large scale
and jus s well as we could. We
could reduce the cost of product ion on
them and make a good profit.
Now, dear friends, I have told you
the truth just as clearly as I can, as it
seems to me. In many cases the prin
ciples brought out will bring a more
genuine success on your farm if prop
erly put into practice, it does the
writer more good than you can think,
perhaps, to lind that such matters are
remembered and made helpful to Prac
tical Fanner readers, as numerous let
ters testify. lie has on his desk now a
letter irom A. W. Grnndon, Steubcn,
O., which says: "I am satisfied that
some farmers could accomplish as much
as they do now by following the advico
giveniu one of your letters years ago,
to work sharper, but fewer hours; to
work more intelligently." And by the
way, friend Grandon, this is the way 1
got time to -lick up :i litOo after my
<la\ s work wasdouo. You think that
advice in a rccoul article was good for
well-to-do farmers hut uurfht mislead

wile was better ploascd. A shirt unu
pantaloons were kept icady to tuakc
this cluing,., it was more like living
than to sit around dirty ami in dirty
clothes. And still, perhaps, I would
no! have done as well in '.his line if

I used to try her patience goiug to lOWU

as it did me. We Ought 10 rOSpeclOUr

other business men when we are awav

The above is mostly for the men, but

COW IT.A HAY UUCP.
in a bulletin on cow peas and corn
lor silage and fodder, just issued by
the 1 lopartiuonl of Agriculture, and
prepared by W. Goltys, of Tennessee,
ai the request of Secretary of Agiicul
ture Wilson, much attention is given
to cow pea hay from stubble land. The
following i8n report of Stich a crop.
The wheat was taken oil as eaily as
posssblc after harvest, and in June Ihe
land was turned and well ImiTOWCd
and rolled, the season heilig favorable
for such work. Whippoorwill peas, a
bushel to the acre, were sown with an
01'diuary wheat drill. The seed being
defective, the stand was not good, but
tbe growth was rapid and promised a
rich crop of grain. As harvest time
approached the thoughl occurred to
the writer (hat, while. IheiO might be a
mcdium-si/.cd crop Of good hay secured
from the land, cut and put away in Iho
usual manner, there should be more of
the grain saved and utilized than is
possible when the crop is handled as
ordinary hay, knowing from past ob
servation that much, if not most, of
ihe grain is scattered ami lost by Un
tune the hay reaches Ihe feed mailgcr.
The crop was permitted to stand bc?
' fore cutting a few days longer than it
1 wi uld have been for unking hay, so as
to give a greater proportion of tho
[ pods time to ripen. It was then cut
! with a mower and let lie in the hot sun
thirly-six hours, when it was thrown in
to light windrows with a hay rake, the
I raking being done after sunset, some
times by moonlight, when the plant
I was lough, lo avoid shattering the
! leaves and grain. After remaining in
the windrows twenty-four hours, it was
thrown into small cocks and left ex
posed to the sun and air forjlnrly-six
hours louger, when it was loaded on
wagons and taken to Ihe. barn. No
thresher suitable I'm the work being
available, tho crop was run through
the silage culler. The cutler had a
shredder attachment, but this, requir
ing too speed, was removed and the
cutter kn.'e used as with silage. To
save, tile threshed peas separately from
Iho stover was the next problem en
countered.
For this purpOSO a section S foot
long was cut. out of the bottom of (lie
carrier, and a suitable wire screen
tacked in place of Ihe solid bottom,
which allowed the peas to drop through
into a wagon lied on tho ground under
neath, while the pea BtOVCr WHS carried
on up .'5<i foot into a bai'U loft, where it
was well scattered and mixed with
other dry feed.
TIlO peas were damaged but little iu
tbe piocess, and after being run
through a band pen cleaner were spread
out on a granary floor lo dry a few
days before sacking. The bay was not
so good as it would have been if cut
oavlior, but this was more than count
erbalanced by Ihe money value of the
peas 8ccurod, which was gwMiUu lhaji,
r>TMr^irW~?t tUe^jYJu>?.'. crop just re
moved. The land was much benefllod
by the growth of the peas, and re
quired only tbi! doubling of the disk
bat row to prepare an excellent seed
bed for the wheat that was to immedi
ately follow. Of course, tho harvesting
and housing of theemp in this manner
required favorable ivoatlior, but not
more so (ban would have been requir
ed to put away successfully the crop in
the ordinary way.

Tha peat hogs of Ireland and other
countries aro likely to have much
greater, value, in tho future than they
have, had iu the past. The possibilities
of peat have been a subject of study
for twelve years by Horr /.schemer, of
Vienna, and he has found thai, while
the grasses and rcods composing it have
become chemically changed, the, ilbres
have not decayed, but that they are
elastic, durable, non-conductors of heat
and nun combustible. These propor#
ties adapt tins material for many uses.
It has been made into a great variety
of fabrics, including blankets for horses
and cuttle, carpets, window curtains,
and paper of various kinds. The
fabrics have the strength of linen with
warmth of wool. The unSpilQ liber is

dears the sf "in miiu tuu naw always
The expression "Don't know en
ough lo sot a bout," though used in !
derision, points to it task that is not
fully uutiorslood. l^Por yours we hutl
our journals full iof Iho (plOSllon of
moisture for our intoubalors too much
moisture or too lit/tie moisture; then the
umistuic gauge to- grade the supply; un
til some wise head discovered thai the
hen whic h hid her\i.esl in the hay-mow
brought forth quita as niauy chickens
as her sister that laid her nest on the
ground under the \nc> n. So it was con- !
eluded that the moisture must come {
from the air, and to-day we have the j
most successful non-inoistmo machine.
There is one other fact tOt be learned
from the hidden nest: Usually the
hen will lay nol to exceed foNur eggs
per week; she hides her liest ni.vd lays
out her litter or supply as may- be,
from twelve to sixteen eggs, i have
seen the bidden nest produce seveiiioe<n
chicks, allowing four eggs per week?(
some of these eggs were four weeks N
old when incubation began, showing !
how the vitality will last under natural j
treatment of the hen. But, under the i
liest, some of them were lull three
weeks old when incubation began.
Here is a lesson as to how long the
vitality will last prior to incubation.
To test this fact, I last season had a
basket of 18 Leghorn eggs sent nil-;
without unpacking I placed them in
the cellar, where they stayed not dis
turbed or turned for four weeks; they
were placed under a hot! ami produced
eight or ten chicks.
i hesc questions cannot be theorized
on; prior to this test I held to the
opinion that eggs three weeks old
would be absolutely certain not to
hatch The question of the hidden
nest led to the other test, the result of
which will prompt mo to go farlbei
j with the experiment this season, it
may be that another trial will prove
less successful; then again, 1 will be
uncertain. At this lime 1 believe there
is difference in the length of the vilali.
ty of the eggs from different lloeks
Strong, vigorous fowls will give more
lasling vitality than over-kept and
pampered ones.
When the hen selects her nest to
hide away tier eggs, she invariable
chooses one with solid foundation so
that the eggs may he guaranteed from
beneath from climate changes. The
turkey or guinea hen, wilder by nature,
usually selects some secluded spot on
the ground that has son.e natural pro
tection. In thus selecting, tboy have
help from the natural BUri'OUUdlngS lo
hold the regular heat from their bodies
within the nest. Some tell us that the
natural moisture from the ground helps
in the progress of incubation. This 1
do not deny. But, if true, why should
the hen in the top of a hay mow do
equally well ? Pigeon eggs hatch well
in the very warmes;, weather in the dry,
hoi upper loft id' a barn If the
ground is necessaiy for success, why
these two differences, as we see them ?
The question evidently has not yet
been settled,
We know thai good results come
from our incubators, il a regular and
even heat of the proper temperature is
maintained. We also know that if al
lowed lo chill, the result is bad. The
incubator, we know, will batch every
good fertile or hatolutblc egg, providing
the proper degree, of heal is maintain
ed. We also know that at limes the
hen does nol hatch all of the so-called
hntchablc eggs, clucks dead in the
shell are quite a common occurrence
with Hie hen. There must be some
good reason for this.
Providing we cccopl the l henry of
the hidden nest, we feel assured thai
; eggs three Weeks old should hatch
reasonably well. The moisture or no
moisture qUC8lion being settled as lo
the incubator, we should nol hesitate
to accept the proposition that the
nest hidden away ill I he mow must
gain its moisture from llie air, which
docs away with the necessity of making
the nest on the ground. After due
consideration of these facts, I am led
to hoUoVO that we must find some
other reason why e.'gs that should
hatch under u hen, do not hatch. We
must try some new explanation that
may lead US to discover (he cause of
the dead-in-the-sbeli chicks under Hu
ben.
BENEFIT OP THE Hl IM)S.
The war which has been made
against the P.nglisb sparrows in De
troit, with the very agreeable result of
nearly exterminating the pests in that
community, so thai song birds are said
to be returning, calls attention to the
ill-advised lights which nro frequently
made upon buds which are sometimes
supposed lo bo great enemies lo the
farm, whereas they may in reality bo
just the opposite. For instance, the
various species of American sparrows,
since they are sometimes seen eating
grain and are found at times in con
siderable lloeks are thought by some
fanners to be an injury rather than a
benefit to the farm. As a matter of
fact they eat but slight amounts of
grain, ye! nil investigation of a huge
number of their slomachs show tU^',
they are indefnllgahlo weedi seatf" do
'StTOy^rV?;i?teg~ttio ialo fall and winter
months. It is estimated on a very
conservative basis that thousands of
tons of weed seeds are eaten every year
by these, tiny foiagers. Oil bright sunny
days during the winter they can bo seen
in swarms in almost every briar
patch and hedge tow busily engaged in
picking around for went seeds, and
were il not for them it is impossible lo
estimate what the natural increase of
many hurtful weeds would be. A
French scientist has staled that with
out birds to eat insects ami wood Seeds,
the earth would in a few years become
Uninhabitable for man. When if is
considered that the almost ontiie food
of the majority of lords consists of
seeds of some sort and insects or
worms, the statement is not improba
ble.

THE REARING OF HEIFER
CJALVfcS.
GoriQSUOUd6nC6 of ProKressivo Farmer. J
Female calves are our dairy reei nils,
and on then proper rearing largely de
pends their future usefulness.
Some dairymen of scan I experience,
imagine that when a calf develops in
to the proportions of meow, no matter
what vieb Hudes >he encounters dining
her growth, that she is then ready to
become a paying animal. Dairymen
should banish such false notions from
their beads if they desire to possess
cows of any merit, llcinember, that
calves cannot be raised too well. It
pays to force their growth all that yon
can. Dono! slop them much with sour
whey or old buttermilk. Feedh both to
them in a fresh state.
They should have the fico run of a
partially shaded pasture, in which
(here is a good growth of mixed grasses
containing some clover. Offensive
surroundings, like proximity to a
Jiarnyard or stable is inimical to the
wealthy development of growing calves.
I Sweet skimmed milk as it comes
?'roni 1 lie separator or creamery will
intake bone and sinew for calves, 08
[Bccially if a little oil meal is added toil.
\ Never try to raise a calf that lacks
good natural vitality. There arc
phbuly enough animals born that can
bet grown into profitable healthy cows,
Without trying to rutSQ the puny ones.
I (inco knew a farmer so economical i
lInfi he. put his calves and pigs in the
saipe enclosure. What was the re
sult, ? Why, in a short lime the poor
cal'ves were in such a sprawny slate,
that although speedily transferred to a
frosih pasture, they never fully recover
ed vrom the effects of swine companion
shi|* in n i summer. The. troughs or
buckets out of which calves are fed
thehl' milk or Whoy should be washed
and (scalded at least OUCC daily. Ncglcv.1 :
in til is direction is of frequent occur- ]
eucel and is one cause for failure in
rearixig good calves.
Anlolher thing that I consider not
a blt\ sentimental, and when put in
practiye of great practical value, is to
make Jpets of the calves. These young
animaus are very amenable to kind
gently Iroatmont, and if daily fondled
ut fceUiug tune, will grow up to be
docile] cows, which adds lo their com
