In some respects he is far superior
to his civilized contemporary. Yet

The following Is the core given it
hen anil her chicks by a successful
Ioultry keeper: "My little 'sitting'
Louse has nests for sixteen hens nnd
I try to Net um many lit a time as I cau.
When the chicks aro hatched I take
lliein out of the nests and put thorn In a
big market Uiskct with a warm woolen
cloth to cover them. Then selecting the
hens that seem the most anxious about;
tlielr chicks I put the liens In little A'

lar tho hack hoarded up the upper
half of hack hinged to lower half and
held In place by button at top. Made

windy day the wind does not sweep
through the coop chllllnff the chickens
as it does when both ends of the coop
are slatted.
"I place two of these coops about ten
feet apart aud connect them by two
frames one covered with Inch mesh
wire nettlug for front and back frame
covered with half Inch matched boards
with a door at each end so as to get at
the frout of the coops with feed and
water. As the top part of the front
frame Is made of a board a foot wide
thus more than half of the runaway Is
kept dry and the chicks can run
around on a rainy day without get-
ting wet and are safe from hawks and
varmints.' As these frames are only
fastened to the coops by a nail or
screw they can be taken off and stored
away In a shed In the fall. When
chicks are hatched In cold weather
put only fifteen with each hen. In
May or the last of April I put twenty
to twenty-five with each hen.
'As the chicks are all the same color
and age the hens do not know their
own chicks ad will take any of them.
The chicks remain with the hen as long
as she will mother them." Business

AERATION OF MILK.
Prett? Dad to Perform Thla Opera
tion In the Barnyard.
liy aeration of milk we understand
the exposlug of milk to nlr of the fore-
lug of nlr luto milk. The theory of
the practice Is that the oxygon of the
nlr purifies or IiuproveH the milk nud
at the same time gases or volatile
oils which are In the milk lire enabled
to pass away. It is true that if the air
to which the milk Ih exposed or which
Is forced luto the milk is perfectly
pure the result undoubtedly In an Im-
provement la the flavor and physical
quality of the milk but In many cases
the air Is not pure and very often as
much harm as good Is done says Fro-
fessor II. II. Dean of Canada In Ameri
can Agriculturist.
The Benefit of Aeration.
Now to my mind for n uiun to areata
milk lu a barnyard Is one of the worst
things he could possibly do. I speak
from experience. We have milked our
cows In tue yard which. I think. Is
kept a good deal cleiiuer than the uv-
eruge barnyard. We have put the
aerator over the fence milked the
cows and nave let the milk ruu down
over the aerator. The result was that
we got some of the worst milk we
could possibly have.
Unless the air is pure I think It
would be best to cool the milk with
as little aeration as possible. The chief
benefit from aerutlou to my mind Is
the opportunity that Is given for any
bad flavors arising from undeslruble
feed or Indigestion on the pint of the
cow to puss away. There Is also u
certain amount of cooling which is ad
vantageous. '
Open Lot Steer Feeding;.
The Pennsylvania experiment sta
tion reports another experiment In
feeding cattle In barn and in lot with
access to open shed with the same
general results as heretofore. It "shows
that the gains made by fattenlug steers
are not lnc! eased by warm quarters
It is not possible to huve stables too
cold for fattening steers lu this climate
provided they are kept dry and well
bedded" which Is the experience of
commercial cattle feeders. Nor In this
Instance were gains made cheaper In
door! than lu the lot the outdoor steers
eating less per pound of grain than the
others. The table of gains does not
suggest that the steers were on full
feed the dally gain being 1.4 pounds
per day for a period of 125 days. It
i neems safe to assert that steers on full
feed require no stabling aud that steers
being fed so that they are putting on
flesh are not In nml of heat either.

ried on for a number of years Is the
Bujrjrostlon that two and one-half tons
of common lime slaked to a fine powder
and applied to nn acre of Infested noil
will usually result In securing a crop
reasonably free from this disease. It
Is uoted that the effect of the lime may
be more apparent on the second than
