I am pretty well oonvinoed that In the space of a few years they will destroy grain enough to nay for a good granary. When I moved to my present place, I found Just snoh arrangements for stor ing grain namely, a corner op stairs in the horse barn shnt off for oats and an old fashioned crib outdoors. Mice had free swing in both of these and de stroyed many dollars' .worth- of grain every year. As soon as I could get to it I built a plaoe for grain whioh pleases me very much. , , The timbers are 8 by 8, of hard wood throughout. The posts rest on largo stones. Four feet from the ground the sills are framed into the posts. Af one end the tenon of the sill enters the post, while on the other end the poet and sill are "halved" together, allowing the sill to ran by the post 18inohea.Tbe plates project on the end . last delorihed feet.

The entire interior is ceiled with three-eighths pine. Overhead boards may be pat down for surplus corn it needed.

Those varieties which grow with a large part of the root above ground - can be- easily polled by hand. Other kinds can be lifted with machines made especial ly for this purpose, if the crops are grown on a large sosle. These imple ments are provided with two, shoes which ran several inches beneath the surface of the ground and loosen the roots so that they can be pulled out with but little effort. If It is not advis able to get a lifter, plow a deep farrow along one aide of the row oloae to the roots. They oan then be removed easily and plaoed in piles. Topping may 4m don before digging, nsing a sharp ho for the purpose, bait there Is some dan ger of injuring the upper 'part of the root and hastening decay.

If your market oalls for yellow poul try, yon must not select stock that does not produce chickens having yellow skin and legs. The pin feathers of the dark plumaged birds are also objection able. Some dark breeds when mated with white breeds produce white or very light ohiokens. White' and buff fowls are to bo preferred. If you are to raise brown eggs, yon must not keep pure breeds of the nonsitting voriotlea You may cross them- with the breeds that lay brown eggs and got excellent stock that produce brown eggs. If yon aro to keep your stock pure, yon have from whioh to choose White and Buff Wyandottes and White Plymouth Books, whioh have no feathers on their legs, and Light Brsbmas . and Buff Cochins, which do have feathers on their legs. Tbey also make exoellent yellow poultry. If yon cross for brown eggs, mate White Leghorns or Buff Cochins rather tban with Wyandottes or Plymouth Bocks, as the results will be better. . If you cross for flesh production, mate oompaot, yellow logged gamos, white or light colored bird- preferred, with any of tbe foregoing, or stocky Wyandottes or Plymouth Rooks with the Light Brahmas or Buff Cochins. Both Cornish and Indian games, which are slow grower, and Uoudans, whioh are quick growers; have full flesh development, but dark plumage, and may bo mated with Light Brahmas and Buff Cochins and Wyandottes with good results, Tbe best purer breds for white eggs where yellow poultry is a consideration are White Leghorns (large strain) and White . Plymouth ' Books (white egg strain). If yon cross for white eggs, try the White Minorca-White Leghorn cross. When dark legs and white skin are not objected to, keep Black Minorca for large, white eggs, and Black Lang shans, which are hardy, for doep brown eggs. A Black Minoroa-Langsban cross Is probably the best cross for egg pro- id notion if size and number of eggs and hardiness only ar oonsidorod. Boa- dans are for flesh. Indian games and Dorking cocks may be crossed on Lang- shans with good result if your market does not require yellow poultry. Sam Mi jOnshman. - - - - -- Chlakaa Cbolara. - . So called chicken cholera investiga tion will often prove is but an extensive development of .vermin. The healthy ben is free from vermin. Almost invari ably other ailments, except, of oourse, i ooJds and case of roup, are mainly dna. to vermin. The bens that are Infested with vermin are so debilitated that they readily succumb to diseases, and are also more apt to get colds and roup than ben not Infested. It Is during warm weather that eternal vigilance becomes necessary to keep down insect pests that abound whore neglect allows them to one get a foothold. Every known device must be utilised during summer to keep the vermin pest of tbe poultry yard in ebeck. Tbe first and most important consideration will al ways be cleanliness of the most thoo ough nature. Wild fowl rarely ever become idiattod with vermin to any great degree because tbey are not con fined to restricted Quarters in lare oolo- nles, like domestic Yowl. Under oondl- a- M tlon snoh a it I neoeaaary to resort to in keeping domastio fowls tha vermin nest take advantage of every neglect When the summer season arrive, which Is so propitious for tha increase of ver min In tbe poultry yards and bouses, extra exertion and all known methods must become tbe order of tb day. Finely pulverised soil kept voder oover will afford the fowl a cbano to in dulge In dost baths nature's plan for ridding birds of vermin.
