POULTRY NOTES. 
The profits of the poultry yard depend 
largely on proper management. A well con¬ 
ducted poultry yard will pay yearly a large 
dividend on the invested capital—there is no 
doubt about it. The poultry house must be in 
a dry, healthy location, and warm in Winter. 
The apai tments should be kept clean and free 
from lice. Saturating the perches with kero¬ 
sene once a week will aid much in this. For 
a dust bath mix a little slaked lime and flour 
of sulphur with fine sand or road dust. Good 
wholesome food given regularly is a requisite 
to success. Burnt bones and oyster shells,bits 
of fresh meat, etc., thrown in with their corn 
will have a good effect on egg production. 
Fresh water is efsential. 
There are some breeds of hens that are not 
happy unless they are providing their owner 
with eggs. For farms where the range is 
large, and where eggs are desired more than 
flesh, the Black Spanish and Leghorns are, 
perhaps, the best varieties. An average of over 
two hundred eggs yearly has been obtained 
from a single hen. But with these things in 
their favor they are great foragers, and a 
garden fence needs to be a high one that they 
will not scale. 
For eggs alone, then, the Spanish and Leg¬ 
horns may be recommended ; for eggs and 
flesh,the Light Brahmas and Plymouth Rocks, 
and for ornamental use the Hamburgs, Black, 
Golden-spangled, Silver spangled and White, 
the Bearded Golden and Bearded Silver 
Polands. The Bantams should not be omitted 
from the fancy poultry yard, as their diminu¬ 
tive size makes a pleasing contrast. 
For sweet, finely’ flavored flesh, and richness 
of eggs the many varieties of the game fowl 
are excellent. They are hardy and strong, in 
this respect like the Cochins;the hens are good 
mothers and lay a moderate number of eggs, 
and the cocks are, of course, good fighters, if 
fighting proclivities are desirable. There is a 
large variety of these fowls, but the Black¬ 
breasted Reds and the Brown Reds are, per¬ 
haps, the best for ordinary uses. The charac¬ 
teristics of this fowl are close and glossy’ 
feathers, small head, toes long, body erect,and 
of active movement. They are great rangers 
and will thrive best when they have plenty’ of 
room. d.
