One advantage in keeping feed al ways before poultry Is that they do not have to hurry to get their meals. Fruit growing and poultry raising go well together. Anyone following either will do well to consider the other. Got a harness punch? It costs only a quarter and with a package of copper rivets breaks can be mended In a jiffy. The silo today furnishes the mnt economical, the safest and the best means of storing the corn crop for feeding purpose. Wheat bran is an excellent feed for dairy cows and calves, but at $30 per ton or more. It la a little rich for most feeders. Although certain pessimists claim that the dairy market will soon be overstocked, present prices give no In dication of the sign. As a result of the activities of the reclamation bureau, 14,000 farms are now being watered and a million acres are being put in crops. Cabbage will sometimes cure slob ber in horses caused by eating white clover; but It Is better to keep the clover away from the bosses.

The feed now in sight will give you a pretty good idea aa to -how much stock you can carry over winter. It is the best policy to have a little too much feed than to be a little short; it means all the difference between thin k stock and those in good condition. Repair the poultry houses now, if eggs are desired in winter. . The nrst cold weather should find all In good condition. New fowls should be pur chase!. New blood is necessary for the flocks no matter what the" breed is, and their purchase should not be delayed. ' ' Keep after the weed Prepare a plot for alfalfa. Prune grape vlnea In the tatt.

Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to touch, but never "sprinkle" roses when they need watering. Crops must be gathered in proper condition and sent to the market fresh and clean. Careful grading is essential. This is the month when most of the silos in the corn belt are filled. It costs money to do this now, but next winter the dividends will surely be collected It Is generally conceded that the best time to sell chickens la from the first of January to the first of November. The bright eye, red comb, smooth. bright, well-kept plumage, activity and a keen appetite, indicate the healthy fowl. Good aheep require good care to maintain their excellence. Poor sheep are always a burden upon the rest of the flock.
