TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN'. This is to certify that I have examined the black Stallion “Urfe,” owned by Rich & Sunderland, in charge of W. A. Ervin, and find him In good health and perfectly fertile, and should be a good foal getter. Signed H. J. KANNAL, M. D. C. RAISE MULES. O. J. Kenton’s, of near Surrey, reputation for keeping the best individual and collective lot of stallions and jacks is well known. The best evidence of this is the get. Mr. Kenton has the best lot of colts and young mules to be seen in Jasper county. One pair of mules, coming four years old, which had never been harnessed, sold for $425 last winter and 10 less than a year brought SI,OOO. A few more choice mares will be served this season From Kentucky Morgan 4717, a beautiful chestnut, and Richmond Squirrel, a stylish, rich brown Ken tucky roadster, Marcus, a dark brown 1800 pound Belgian, James Madison No. 287 and Henry Clay a 16-hand jack, make a combination that can not be equaled anywhere in northern Indiana. Nothing raised op the farm can show a profit equal to Mr. Kenton’s mules, sales of which are mentioneo above. Horsemen and farmers will profit by noting these facts.

PROFITABLE TURKEYS. How to Raisa Those Fowls to tiring Good Prices In the Market. “Success in turkey raising depends largely on the choice of stock, also on the care and attention given,” says one authority. “I have raised different kinds, but like White Hollands the best. I have often raised a large flock from three hens. They are very tame and bring more in the market on account of their line plumage. “In the early spring I- gather the eggs daily, for If left to accumulate In the nest they become chilled and so are worthless for hatching. Much labor and time may be saved if the
FINE WHITE TURKEYS.
hens are kept In an Inclosure during the egg producing season: Barrels laid on the side with straw placed in them make good nests. “After gathering them It Is not best to keep'tbe eggs very long, but if there Is no suitable place to put them with a hen they should be turned at legst twice a week. “I give seventeen eggs to a turkey hen. It is best if they can come off while sitting to eat and dust as they like. They may also be dusted with a good powder just before the young turkeys come out. I take them from the nest as soon as possible, all but one, to be left with the mother, so she will not be uneasy. I keep them in a box in the house until they learn to eat and walk. They soon learn to eat bread moistened with sweet milk. "The coops a>e then ready. These are made of boards eight feet long, about three feet high at the front and two and a half inches in the rear, being fitted with a good cover; also boards partly covering the bottom, with a door in each end. This, divided In the middle, will make two good coops, which will turn the rain. I keep them in the coop with the hen one day, then turn them In a pen made of boards a foot high. The pen is about twenty feet square. Around this two feet of poultry wire is placed to keep the mother in; also to keep the outside chickens from getting to scalp the little ones.
“The coop opening In this pen makes it easy to change them around. In this way they get plenty of exercise nml will flourish if given eornmeal and cheese made of sour milk four times a day with plenty of fresh water. Small oyster shell is necessary. A small bit of cayenne pepper mixed with the cheese is a good stimulant. “After keeping them In the pen about two weeks they are getting anxious to find larger fields. The White Hollands will wander and hunt, but nearly always come home In the evening. They soon learn to go in the coop. This must be kept very clean. After feeding they are shut in and kept till the grass is dry in the morning. Always keep them in when it rains. They cannot run iu the wet until larger. “When getting them ready for market a mixed feed of oats and corn Is good. Old com is much better than new.” A way of controlling turkeys to make them stay In a field Is very simple.
YOKED TURKEY.
around the wing or under the wing, bring It through the holes and tie securely. The turkey cftnnot fly with this on, for she cannot raise her wings, as she Is obliged to in flying. The cut gives an Idea of how It Is made and attached. The strings should not be tied so tightly as to injure the wing, but tight enough to stay on. The device cannot be used during the breeding season, as it will prevent the turkeys from mating.
Lame Pigs. Young pigs confined in a floored pen sometimes become lame. It Is advisable to turn the pigs out and let them have an opportunity to take proper exercise and enjoy natural conditions as nearly as possible. It Is the plank floor that causes soreness and lamepasture they may be fed on corn alone, but if confined In a small lot they should be supplied with food that contains more' bone making constituents than Is supplied by corn, such as wheat bran, oats, middlings, coliards, etc.
will give the trees good culture Vill find both pleasure and profljt in dwarfs. In a commercial way the apples on Paradise stocks have not been grown extensively enough to test them. It is generally considered that they require too' much care to be profitable when grown on a large scale. Some leading fruit growers believe, however, that the Doucin stock has great commercial possibilities. It mjdtes trees eighteen to twenty feet high. 'They can be set from a rod to twenty feet apart each way and can be given the best of attention owing to their moderate size. Th* Fruit Patch. The government horticulturist says many persons with small lots may plant what are known as dwarf fruit trees. In proportion to size dwarf trees are more fruitful than “standards.” They come into bearing sooner and are therefore of special value for use In limited inclosures or fruit gardens. Besides the advantage of dwarfing, grafting may be. turned to good account, enabling the owner of trees to increase his variety of fruits. Single trees have been made to bear as many as 130 varieties of apples. If you set out a fruit garden, take advantage of the space nnder and between the trees by planting strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, currants or some other small fruit Vegetables may also be planted about the trees.
Take a shingle or a thin piece of board about a foot long and bore with a small bit four holes, two on one side and two on the other, that will Just cover the wings. Take then a stout piece of soft cloth and put
Renewing Fenceposts. Do not throw away old fenceposts Just J>eeause the ends In the ground have rotted away. You can patch these out and the posts will last as long as new ones. Take a piece of an ordinary post two feet long and smooth down one end with an ax so as to fit on to the end of the post, which should likewise be smoothed down. Now get a half dozen spikes and nail the piece to the post. Reverse the post, leaving the patched end at the top. v On* Man Spraying. For an area of less than one acre a .small compressed air or knapsack sprayer will be very satisfactory. Where fruits as well as potatoes are to be sprayed the iJkrrel spray pump outfit will be most economical. By mounting the barrel on a one-horse twowheeled cart, at the rear of which a three-quarter inch pipe of sufficient length to cover four rows and provided with, nozzles Is attached, one loan can do the spraying unassisted.
HORSE SENSE.
Some Sensibls Ad vies In Regard te Collars and Their Use. The closely padded, 111 fitting, soft collar means suffering and shortens the life for the horse. “Years ago I gave up the hot, sticky pad,” said an intelligent farmef, “and have used only the close fitting, hard leather collar, which we have endeavored to keep clean. This clean collar, with a good washing of the shoulders noon and nights, has generally sufficed to keep them free from soreness. Still, during the constant use of the riding cultivator in our cornfields the necks sometimes get sore, caused by the weight and the moving of the collar across the skin at each step of the horse. We are all Inclined to" use collars too large for the horse. Much pains should be taken In the first fitting of the collar, and If It Is thoroughly soaked and placed on the horse while still wet It will usually shape Itself to the shoulders. Another thing, we try to avoid a too low draft. The way double harnesses are usually made all the weight comes on the horses’ necks, and there is a constant tendency to lower the draft even until it comes nearly to the point of the shoulder. This should be overcome as far as possible. The draft should be high enough to insure an even bearing the entire length of the shoulder, and nel : ther should the girth be buckled tight enough to cause any draft on the top of the neck. In fact, a girth is unnecessary and need never be used except where the traces are attached to the load above a right angle to the horse’s shoulders. Steel collars are In use near us, and I am going to try a pair this spring. I think the principle is right, and they strike me as being very convenient.”
DWARF APPLE TREES. They Are Useful to Owners of 8mal! Plots of Lands. The sketch was made from a Red Astrakhan tree set two years before. This was only one of a hundred simi lar trees of the same variety planted by George T. Powell of Columbia county, N. Y., who has taken up the culture of dwarf apples. These Astrakhans were propagated on Paradise stocks, which make trees that If pruned properly never grow more than eight to ten feet high. They can be planted ten feet apart each way and when a few years old will bear a bushel to a barrel each. The owner of a small lot who wishes to have several varieties of fruit and
