A Breeding Chart. 
I was quite taken with the chart by 
Mr. Felch describing line-breeding in 
chickens on page 241. It could be used 
to demonstrate how we could drive scrubs 
of all kinds off the farms in a few years, 
by changing his figures a little, and sub¬ 
stituting the words purebred for male 
and scrub for female. I don’t know how 
he would produce one having fifteen-six- 
teentlis, twenty-one-thirty-seconds, or 
twenty-seven-tliirty-seconds. In cross¬ 
ing purebred, and scrub stock, of 
any kind we use the terms, breeding up, 
aud breeding down; you breed up by al¬ 
ways using a purebred sire, you breed 
up or towards purebred stock, and by us¬ 
ing a grade or scrub sire, you breed 
down or towards scrubs, and the removes 
are: one-half, three-fourths, seven- 
eighths, fifteen-eighteenths, thirty-one- 
thirty-seconds, sixty-three-sixty-fourths, 
which is practically purebred, but not 
all the herd books will admit them for 
registration. You could not do the live 
stock interests a better service than to 
get up such a chart and the explanation, 
and keep it in a conspicuous place in 
Tiie R. N.-Y. I have heard for years 
about making two blades of grass, and 
two grains of corn grow, where one grew 
before. It is not the number of blades 
or grains you raise that counts, but what 
you do with thorn after you have raised 
them. There is many an old scrub in 
this State, and I expect in others, eating 
blades and grains that would not sell 
for the value of the feed they have eaten; 
in fact they could not be sold at all but 
farmers still continue to raise them. 
UNCLE JIM. 
Lame Turkey. 
I received one tom and two hen tur¬ 
keys last month, and apparently they 
were all right. The next day the tom 
appeared lame, but next day after that 
he seemed to be all right again. Since 
that time he has grown worse, and at 
this writing he is unable to stand at all. 
He lies on his breast with one leg ex¬ 
tended out. The hens are doing well and 
seem to be at home in their new quarters. 
I wrote to the. people that I purchased 
them from, but got no satisfaction. The 
birds have a run 15x35 to exercise in, 
but the tom does not move from his 
night quarters. F. J. s. 
Connecticut. 
If you can find no evidence of injury 
to this turkey’s leg, it is very possible 
that rheumatism is the cause of the dis¬ 
ability. I should place the tom by him¬ 
self in warm dry quarters and feed him 
mederately upon soft, easily digested 
food, and if at hand would, give what 
skim-milk he would drink. As medicine, 
dissolve three grains of sodium salicylate 
in as much water as you can induce the 
turkey to take, and administer once or 
twice daily. M. B. D. 
A Rice Incubator. —We have heard 
it claimed for the “natural method” of 
incubation that you can hatch with the 
hen and then eat up the incubator. The 
Chinese near Amoy have another scheme, 
as described by Consul Brissel: 
“The breeder first takes a quantity of 
unhusked rice and roasts it, cooling it 
down by fanning or by allowing the 
wind to blow through until it is luke¬ 
warm. lie then spreads a three-inch lay¬ 
er of the rice in a wooden tub and places 
about 100 eggs thereon; another layer 
of rice, this second and subsequent lay¬ 
ers being but two inches in thickness, is 
spread over the eggs. Each tub will have 
six layers of rice and five layers of eggs, 
so that there will be 500 eggs in each tub. 
The rice should be heated once every 24 
hours, the eggs being taken out at such 
times. When the eggs are again put in 
the rice the bottom layer is placed on 
top and each of the other layers one row 
lower down, while the eggs pre¬ 
viously in the center of the tub are 
placed at the edge. The entire tub is 
covered with a cotton mattress. One of 
the great difficulties with this method is 
the inability to tell just when the eggs 
will hatch, which of course renders the 
smothering of the young very possible. 
The measure of success of the breeder 
depends largely upon his ability to care 
for the chicks at this time.”

some free advice out of the doctor. “Which
