NO COCKADOODLE8 IN WASH- < INGTON. ' Oh hear the news from Washington! Oh. list with bated breath! And break it gently to the race Lest many fall In death. Too august courts, so solemn, slow. Decree that roosters have to go No eockadoodle, high or low. May In tnat holy city crow. Oh. hear the reason for all this— Why Mrs. Hen must change to Miss. This law that takes those cocks away While poodle pups bark night and day. Tteun^^ilghbadls all nlghtf And. guided by. a copper's arm. They don't get home till light. Those pretty girls of fairy form. Who kick high Jinks like fair Salome | Are awful late returning home. | Those — who Indulge In bridge Until old Sol peeps o'er Blue Ridge. And late put on their nighty slipsThOW 'all have knocked at rooster's crow Because It irritates them so. And thus the cocks may crow no more Because "sassiety" must snore. Now without tariff hullabaloo. Cut off from cockadoodledoo. Oh. won't that old town be a bore With nothln' doin" but a snore? C. M. BARNIT'/. ! THE NEST EGG NO FAKE. Now! Everybody ready? Here's for i • gosd laugh at the cushion pressiug I poultry editor who calls the nest egg { •'grandmother's superstition." Our hens Just cackle for them. Why 7 1 Just because a hen sits plump down i on a nest egg and uses it to press out the new egg. She will lay almost every time where , there is an egg and. If not furnished, wfll often scratch a stone, corncob or green apple into the nest. Hens can carry an egg under the wing, as you have discovered to your sorrow when lifting a cluck hastily from the nest. We have been surprised at times to find most of the nest eggs in one nest and on watching have de- ' tec led a hen making the transfer. To cultivate the habit of laying in one place and to stop nest stealing, to prevent bens crowding Into one nest and also the dropping of eggs, to be broken and eaten, and to start your laying pallets to lay in the nests, fur nish nest eggs, and lots of theni. The patent louse killing nest egg soon evaporates and taints the eggs. The natural egg should not be used, as it get* stale. The white china egg is bast for the nest. FOR A QUICK. EARLY MOLT. Fido. Pussy and Old Fan shed their hair just like Bldd.v molts her feathers. Easy, cheap way to get a winter overcoat! But Biddy must hustle her molt to escape colds and roup and to lay early winter high priced eggs. Strong hens don't get bare, their new feathers quickly replacing the old. Molting begins about July 1 and should end 8ept. 1 at latest, and thin hens molt first, so thin them down by cutting the ration to one-half or a third the usual quantity, according to , condition, whether fat or thin. For this three weeks' anti-fat ration feed mostly wheat and oats and twice a week on clear days feed a mash in which put two tablespooofula of sulphur to every fifty fowls. Now feed heavily of good grains, cut bone ami sunflower seed. This will rush their new feathers and bring them to laying condition. VMn thom fr«> from lii-e In molt molt. 1

feed no egg force and protect them I from exposure. j t ' i i DONTS. j I Don't miss your town paper in ad- 1 ver Using stock to sell. It will bring 1 you boodle for eockadoodle. and you'll , • not be like the noodle who placed his ad. 500 miles away and never beard < from It until the judgment day. | < Don't forget that young show birds j should be well fed. well housed, well 1 petted, but not spoiled. Don't lock that door after toe chickens have been stolen nor hide the key ' Don't build a henhouse like a king's palace, and don't build a shack. To ; build just right, ae In anything else, yon must find the golden mean, and the golden mean leads to the gold Don't get mad at your nelghoor If he «hi» your cat that skinned his chick. IPs a skin game trick. Don't sigl for more worlds to con--quer before you conquer yourself. That wade Alexander a great failure. Don't go through the world with your eyes open to the other fallow's faults. Yon can't hide your own even M safety vaults j Don't count your show birds till they mature and don't count your cups till the show Is over. Don't neglect to mix charcoal with i the soft mash to ward off summer die- j

THE CORNI8H INDIAN GAME. If the lightweight Leghorn is the egg machine and the Brahma Is the 1 beef of ponltrydom. then the Cornish J Indian Game must be the draft horse. IPs the chunkiest chicken Incubated. But Is that big bird really a Game! * Sure. Its first father was a Lord 1 Derby Black Breasted Bed Game of I England and its mother an Aseel Game < from India. The progeny of this pair were mated . to a Black Sumatra Game, and if these I three varieties are placed beside a _ thorough bred Cornish iDdlan their relationship can be easUy traced. The Black Breasted Bed is seen in the color, the Aseel in the masslveness and the Sumatra in the beautiful metallic luster of tbe plumage of the Cornish Indian. But why should the Cornish club drop the name "Game" and call their favorite "Cornish Fowl." "Cornish." "Indlsnr Because the name "Game" handicaps its popularity, as that name la associated with crnal cockfigbtlng and

the ruffianism and outlawry of the I cockpit, while this magnificent fowl is I ! peaceable In disposition and built pri- | ' marily for meat, of which delicious ar- I * tide it carries much. I The White Is the other variety of ] i Indian Game, but Its lighter weight j I points to Malay origin or cross, while j tbe Cornish, the subject of our sketch, j j is more like the Aseel. The first true Cornish were brougnt j from England in 1887. They have many | friends. The hen is marked much like , ' tbe Partridge Cochin, but the palm for beauty must go to the male. He is n | ; picture with his red comb, face, wattles and ear lobes, pearl eyes, yellow ; beak and legs, greenish black hackle, , glossy black and red back and saddle. 1 ' beautirul red and black wing mark- 1 ' ings. rich glossy black breast and un- , ' derbody and low. lustrous black tall. I • For beauty and flesh we have found I them extra fine fowl. ' CORNISH INDIAN STANDARD WEIGHTS. Pounds. Pound* Cock h..i S Hen W Cockerel ......... 7H Pullet Mi [ FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS. A Quaker waa too religious to kill t a dog that caught his chickens, bo he , gave him a good kick and yelled. "Mad dog!" Everybody Joined in the chase, and the pup's career soon ended. Can't yon get up a mad dog scare in your town? A mad dog scare In Danville. Pa.. 't last year caused the canine populaI tlon to "kl-yl" over a hundred of their 0 departed relatives who were shot by j cope. Let the good work go on. j Coqcrete block poultry houses do r ' not appear to make good, as they are reported cold and chilly and not con,1 duclve to big egg records, n The offering of a bounty of 2 cents y a head for sparrows at Marquette, Mich . resulted in the slaughter ot o 1,084 In three menths. Poultrymen ,r I who are careless with feed encourage d the pest. A pigeon fancier caught 1G8 In his loft entry, where feed was scati, tered from the pigeon troughs. 1- ! There are at present 5.500.000 geese d in the United 8tates. 5.000,000 ducks ,1 and 6.500.000 turkeys. If these were If these i

served to 90,000.000 people those at the ■ second table would surely get left. Clucks may seem awful alow hatchto one who runs Incubators, but * their chicks are awful fast growers in | | comparison to incubator chicks. They j . ! stuff with feed until they resemble a j ( ; ward alderman right after he 1 1 polls a big majority, but such a quan- j tlty of feed kills an incubator chick j overnight. J The reason Incubator chicks come 1 j 1 out so much earlier than a ben's is be- | j cause we run the machine too hot. and j I when this is ndt the case we must re- j member that » ben Is ontBide and , j her hatch is apt to be retarded by the j weather, while an Incubator Is gener- j ! ally where a drop In temperature cau't ] affect it. For quality, quick growth and per feet maturity of chicks take the hen. but for quantity take the Incubator. No brooder can brood like Biddy. This Is not fossilism. for we use both. The Almighty made a good thing when he created the clock, and she can't be legislated out of existence by tbe Incubator manufacturers. At Peterboro, N. H~ eggs were dropped from a balloon, a mile In the air. to demonstrate that explosives could be dropped accurately. They hit the mark. Haymow hen fruit was forbidden. A turkey nen is a good breeder for four or fire years, but It Is good to have a new. strong, yonng gobblei every spring for a sure thing. •5s. JAsTv^-wevu^
