THE GAME CHICKEN.
ke Late.tCa.dtaate Fer rare With

The game chicken at a farmer's fowl
Is among the new departures. Many
food things are told of the games. The
true games are very vigorous. They
are good foragers, pushing boldly out
In search of Insect food, and It Is even
aid that a mother hen has been known
to put up a flgut against a hawk in de
fense of her brood. All these qualities
adapt them to farm conditions.
The true old English game Is of me

Indian games, which ar amabA intn
I Cornish and White varieties, are popu-
tar iu .ngianu on account of their val
ue as market fowls and for the same
reason are finding favor on this side of

the Atlantic. They are extensively
nsea In England and In many Instances
in this country for crossing purposes.
The bens are reported fairly good lay
ers of an egg of medium size. Chlet
ens are fairly hardy and make satisfac
tory development.
Some authorities claim that, while
the Cornish are a variation on the orig
inal type in the direction of blocky
build and development of flesh, they
also mark a great departure from the
original hardiness and egg producing
merits of the type.
The Dnckwing Leghorns, which are
newcomers and comparatively little
known, are said to contain both game
and Dorking blood and to approximate
closely the good points In tbe typical
games.
BIG PROFIT IN CHERRIES.
Bark Varletle. the Meaer Makers,
With Wlad.or la the Lead,
The best sweet cherries I have
south of central New York are along
the fences where the cultivator has not
disturbed them. In northern Delaware
there are several famous sweet cher
ries In the fence rows and comers, but
early all of the orchards that I have
seen In which modern cultivation meth
ods are attempted have been failures.
... In central and eastern New York the
weet cherry has to be kept on medium
thin land. My father has a young or
chard that Is booming on land that
would be considered 'poor for farming
purposes; hut tbe trees ret pond there to
tillage.
The sour cherries will probably do
ft under high culture.' While they
grow well along the fences, they need
itnore moisture than the sweet varieties
and pay well under the best treatment.
;f The dark kinds are the money mak
ers. Black Tartarian, Black Eagle,
.Windsor and Dlkemaa are tbe leading
sorts at home. There Is big money in
Windsor, and If Dlkeman turns out aa
!are expect It there ought to be more in
It . . ' " '
U Sometimes the sweet cherry needs
time and dies for want of it. Some
kinds need it more than others. Tarta
rian i bdlcve. la one of them. Thus
writes Professor O. H. Powall to Bnral
New Yorker.

The chief object In the maintenance
of an earth road Is to get rid of the wa -
ter as quickly and as fully as possible.
In maintenance, as In construction, wa-
ter Is the great enemy of good roads,
The secret of success in maintenance
Is to keep tbe surface smooth and the
side ditches open, says Professor Ira
O. Baker In Illinois experiment station
bulletin.
There are several machines 05 devices
which are very effective in Oiling the
ruts and depressions and in keeping the
surface smooth. Different tools are
best under different conditions. The
writer has seen a heavy stick of tim
ber shod with a steel plate and drawn
by two horses used for this purpose
with great success. He has also seen
a railroad rail so. used. The rail Is usu
ally 14 or 16 feet long and Is drawn by
four horses. When tbe ground Is mel
low and loose after freezing and thaw
ing, the rail will smooth the road .down
nicely and do It more rapidly than the
road machine, since It cuts a wider
swath. One round trip Is sufficient for
any 'road. The time when tbe work Is
most advantageously done Is compara
tively limited, and therefore one rail
should not be expected to cover too
much road.
In the late spring, after the ground
has settled, the roads should be pre
pared for summer travel by being shap
ed up with the road machine or road
grader. When this work Is to be done,
the ground Is comparatively dry, and
consequently tbe heavier road scraper
is required and can be bandied on tbe
roads. It Is somewhat unfortunate
that this tool Is ordinarily called a road
grader, since the name has poaslbly
led to a misconception aa to an impor
tant use of tbe machine. As an Instru
ment of road construction this machine
Is nsed to give a crown to the road, but
as an instrument of maintenance It
FOUB BOBSB LOAD.
should be used only to smooth the sur
face and restore the original crown.
Apparently some operators assume that
the machine Is not to be nsed except to
Increase tbe crown of tbe road. Em
ployed In tbis way the crown is made
too great, and a big ridge of loose earth
la left In the middle of tbe road which
only slowly consolidates and wblcb Is
likely to be washed Into tbe side ditch
es to make trouble there. .Since the in
troduction of the road machine there
has developed a strong tendency to In
crease tbe crown of the road unduly.
Doubtless tbe object Is to secure better
drainage of the roadbed, but piling up
tbe earth Is an Inadequate substitute
for tile drainage. Side slopes steeper
than just enough to turn the water into
tbe side ditches are a detriment
' In smoothing tbe road tbe road ma
chine should be ran over tbe ground
lightly so as to smooth down the ridges
and All up the ruts. Only enough earth
should be moved toward tbe center of
the roadway to replace that washed
down by tbe rains. The blade should
stand nearly square acroee the road,
and considerable earth should be shov
ed along In. front of tbe blade so aa to
have enough loose earth to fill any oe-
pressions. Tbe surplus earth sbouio
be evenly distributed along on the sur
face. '
Tbis work should be done early, be
fore tbe ground becomes bard and diffi
cult to work and before traffic baa keen
compelled partially to do the work of
the road leveler and while tne anrrace
is In condition to unite with tbe loose
earth left by tbe machine. - unf orre
natel tbis work Is often postponed until
tbe ground Is so bard that It la Impos
sible to do a thoroughly good job- If
tbe ground ia a little too wet for agri
cultural tillage, It ia an tbe better for
roadmaking. tinea It will pack better
than though It were drier. ' During tbe
summer. If the road becomes very bad
ly rutted, tbe road machine should oe
run lightly over It -

Treee Need Steep.
"Insomnia dries trees up and kills
them after s while," remarks a tree
fancier. "Trees need sleep just aa
individual; and if powerful lights
art glaring apon in era au mgni iodk
the leaves will rradnally wither and
drop from Iht branch. This dead
ening of the tree is often plainly no

WIth tbe old method of testing toe
I cows with the churn mighty little test-
1 ng was done on the average dairy,
1 farm, and the seven day test was about
! the only one known of, and of course
' we took the seven best days when the

ty la National Stockman. What sood is
that to tbe practical business dairy
man? What does that cow do the other
858 days? In a few cases I know of she
tried her best to get over tbe effects of
the seven day test
What we want to know is how much
butter fat Is contained In the cow's
milk and bow many pounds of milk the
cow gives in one year, not a day or a
week when In flush on feed that possi
bly costs twice as much aa the product
Is worth.
The method I use for testing dairy
cows is not at all original with me, but
Is used by the foremost -dairymen of
the land, and from years of observation
and. experience I feel conscientious In
recommending It as practical for alt
dairymen and farmers who depend on
their cows for tbe main money crop.
I need three Implements via, tbe
scale, the Babcock test and the lead
pencil. Weigh every cow's milk from
year's end to year's end. Teat twice per
month and keep a strict account When
I purchase a sire to improve my stock,
I would not give a snap for progenitors
with a seven day test bnt If that sire
carries considerable blood of progeni
tors with good yearly testa I am quite
willing to part with a liberal amount of
filthy lucre, and I know quite a number
of dairymen who are of the same mind,
and their tribe Is Increasing,
Bua.lt Varua.
Bank barns are always damp and al
ways dusty. Owing to tbelr construc
tion they never admit sunlight in quan
tities sufficient to be of any use. Sun
light Is destructive to all forma of
harmful bacteria. Therefore a sta
ble properly constructed should admit
the direct rays of tun to every stall If
possible.

"Rations
If every dairy farmer win plan to
make an effort to establish a aeedtng
of alfalfa and will try soy beans,
eowpess, Canada peas, crimson clover
and any other nitrogenous plant suit
able to bis climate and farm opera
tions, we ehall see the beginning of the
solution of tbe protein problem and a
relaxation of tbe squeezing of tbe
trust controlling the protein of com
merce, says a Pennsylvania correspond
ent of Hoard' Dairyman.
Then the fanner who know It la
best and wisest to balance his ration
will do so from tbe fullness of his own
harvest With the experiment station
of New Jersey, where they do poaslbly
a little guessing on practical farm
matters a at any station in the coun
try, authority for tbe statement that
over six tons of alfalfa, almost equal
to a many tone of good wheat bran,
were produced last season per acre, no
progressive dairyman baa an excuse
for not having at least a trial patch of
alfalfa.
Three tons of cowpea bay can be
raised per sere on good ground, and If
one must nave meal to supplement tbe
silage tbe cowpea bay may be ground
Into meal and make as macb milk aa
Ito weight In beet wheat bran.
Ten too of soy beans can be cut
green to mis with tbe corn In toe silo
from sn acre or from 30 to 80 bnsbels
of seed harvested.. Tbis seed ground
to mesl will give about three times a
much digestible protein aa Is found In
tbe same weight of wheat bran and
three timee a much fat as In corn.
By devoting lees range of pasturage
to the cows and practicing summer
soiling, or, better, substituting tbe sum
mer silo, a fair proportion of the land
beret of ore nsed for pasture can be
utilized for tbe growing of some of
these protein crop and next winter's
ration not only be balanced, bat tb

due unbalancing of tbe fanner's bank

Professor T. L. Baecker Of the Min

years experience gives tb following
as to tbe best ration for dairy cows:
Ensilage Is toe foundation feed need,
and tbe grain feed consists of five part
bran, five parts com meal and two parts
of aew process gluten meal wblcb con

i lie auago about birds that can

ly applicable to public officials,
At least, that is the unanimous ver
dict of a joint committee from the
American Anti-Trust League and
the Knights of Labor, and most un
prejudiced men are likely to vote
aye. Thess gentlemen know that
the Attorney General of the U. 8.
can do his duty, by proceeding
against the big steel trust for having
violated tbe Sherman anti-trust law,
nnd they are determined lo make
him do it or know the reason why
They are proceeding in a buHiners-
like way ; have employed two law
yers ex-Attorney General Mooett,
of Ohio, and Mr. A. A. Lipscomb,
of Washington, to collect evidence
of the violation of tbe Sherman
anti-trust law and submit it to the
Attorney General with a demand
that be begin legal proceeding in
the name of the U, b. Mgainrt tbe
trust Sjteakingnif theirinU'ntiono,
Mr. H. 11. Martin, Chairman of the
joint committee, eaid : "In the
event ot the complaint being block
ed in the Attorney General'-' office,
or if he does not consider it advis
able to, act in the matter, we have
decided to ley -the papera in -the
ciine before the President of the U
S. In fact, ww are prepared to take
step for a mandamus proceeding if
we are pushed to extremes, but it is
doubtful if either of the 1 at two
named actions, will be necessary,
and we ate proceeding with tbe idea
that Ibere will be no hitches of any
description." They are preparing
lo bring: legal actions against the
steel trust under the laws of the
Bistre in which it carries on its bus
iness. The action ol the committee
is receiving endorsements from
every direction and some of them
have been , accompanied by . the
strongest evidence of genuineness
cash contributions to aid in paying
tbe necessary expends. t ;
. Strong pull is being brought to
bear on Secretary Root to save Capt
J. C. Read, a son of a rich iron
manufacturer of Pittsburg, who was
convicted by a court-martial of com
plicity in the commissary frauds at
Manila and sentenced to three
yean in tbe military prison, at that
place, to bo dishonestly discharged
from tho army. Road's lawyers
have secured a promise from Secre
tary Root to review tho case. One
of the claims of the lawyers is that
the court-martial was irregular be
cause nine of its members 'were of
ficers of tbo regular army; that
Read being a volunteer officer was
entitled to trial by a court compos
ed exclusively of volunteer officers.
But the strongest claim in Read's
behalf is that represented by hit
daddies dollars.
: If the story that Sampson might
not appear before tho Schley Court
of Inquiry was put out as a feel
by the , anti-Scbley , gang in
Navy Department to ascertain how
the public would take soma sort of
official juggling that would enable
Sampson to avoid the trial which
his cross-examination by "Jerry"
Wilson, Schley's chief counsel, is
certain to be, a many suspect they
must he thoroughly convinced by
the bowl it raised that tbo public
will not stand lor any such business
as that. , It was Sampson who was
Schley's first a censer and who was
mainly instrumental in tbo forma
tion of tb naval clique which has
so rsistently sought to ruin Schley,
snd it is Ssmpson who most either
clear himself or lorever condemn
himself. ' Although the clique pre
tends to talk as though Sampson
bad no more interest in tbo court
than any other officer who happens
to be a witnear, every mother' son
of them knows that as sooa aa that
court gets started it will bo plain to
all the world that it bSampsoo, and
not Schley, who is on trial, and it
is a great deal more likely that the
report and reoommondatioos of tho
court will bo against Sotnpsoa than
against Schley. In view of these
things it is absurd for anybody to
talk about Sampson not appearing
betbre the Court.

as been an increase in the number
stationed at Newport the last 12
months of from 700 to 1,100, which
gives the services the largest num

The converted cruiser Mayflower,

bugar planters of Hawaii , have
lately used, efforts to secure a modi
fication of the Japanese edict so that
men from that country may be al
lowed to go to Hawaii. Assistant
Secretary Taylor, of the Treasury,
recently told the Japanese Minister
that desirable Japanese persons will
be allowed to go to Hawaii freely,
provided that they do not go ; under
contract, either verbal or written, as
laborers. ,r; "... ).
The Alaska gold output this year
will probably be disapjtointing. Lett
year the receipts at Seattle, of gold
dust amounted to about 124,000,
000, the bulk of it coming in during
the summer and fall. The June
receipts last year were $1,129,154,
and the June receipts this year only
166,639. The July receipts last
year were 16,351,065, while the
July receipts in 1901 were only
$3,748,313.
The mail received by Admiral
Schley, who is now in Washington,
is described as something unpre
cedented in the history of the hotel
at which he is staying. Many .of
the letters are from . strangers, and
contain brief expressions of good
wiil and hope for success. Admiral
Schley sees few callers. He still
declines to make any statement re
garding his case. .;-.'"
A recent bulletin of the Census
Office shows a decrease in the death
rate ot nearly 10 per cent, or of 1.8
persons , per thousand per year.
This means an increase in average
longevity from 31.1 to 35.2 years.
Tbis increase is ascribed to medical
progress and Improved sanitary
conditions.
The report of the Pension Bureau
for the past fiscal year shows a net
increase of pensioners of 4,206. Of
these 3,849 were Spanish war suf
ferers, leaving a net increase due to
the Civil war of 857. Considering
that it is 30 years since the war was
over, this fact is little less than
marvellous. The total number now
on tbe rolls is 997,735 or about one
in 75 of tbe population of the whole
country. This percentage would, of
course, be mueh higher, it the
sooth, where4 comparatively few
pensions are granted, were eliminat
ed. It is unofficially estimated here that
at least $175,000,000 will bs realis
ed by the farmers and millers of the
United States from the sale of wheat
and wheat flour abroad during the
present fiscal year. Last year the
United 6 tales produced 552,000,000
bushels of wheat and exported 132,-
060,667 bushels of wheat valued at
$96,771,743, and 18,650,970 barrels
of wheat flour, valued at $69,450,
29ft. The Agricultural Depart
ment's reports show that the crop
will be largely in excess of that of
last year. ,
Tbe Treasury Depsrtnieit has de
cided adversely to the contention of
tho Porto Ricans that the proclama
tion of the President, declaring free
trade with their Island, did not ef
fect the impadtion of tho 5 cento im
port tax on coffee. Tbe Solicitor of
the Department thinks the case one
of inadvertence by Congress, but re
gret that he can see no way of evad
ing tbe plain statute of tbe case.
Coal ex porta t ions from the Unit
ed States during the fiscal year just
ended, as shown by the Treasury
Bureau of Statistics, amounted to
$22,317,496, against $19,502,813 in
the fiscal year 1900, $13,661,028 in
1899, $11,038,643 in 1897, $10,646,
062 in 1896, and $8,391,062 in
1891. Thus the value of coal ex
portation from the United 8 tales
bas doubled since 1897 and 'nearly
trebled in tbs decade. Measured
by quantity the increase has -been
even greater, the exports in 19.1 be
ing 7,676,149 tons, against 2,339,-
