auii Poultry.
Watch for Roup.
Much of the ill-success with poultry
arises from lack of observation of the
people having the care of them. They
allow diseases to get into the flocks
and spread, when, by proper observa-
tion, the trouble would be stopped ere
it had obtained a good start. A few
days ago the writer of this had oc-
casion to purchase a dozen laying
hens from a farmer. The latter was
asked if he had roup in his flock. He
was at once very indignant and re-
plied that when a fowl in his yards
fell sick the axe was the remedy. None
of his fowls had the roup or any other
disease. So tho would-be purchaser
thought he would be safe in purchas-
ing a few fowls "unsight and unseen."
But he will never do that again.
The fowls were promptly delivered.
At night the purchaser went out to
take a look at his fowls for the first
ime. What a sound greeted his ad-
Vent in the poultry house. He recog-
nized its cause at once. The fowls
were all safely ranked on the roosts,
•but (rom their midst came mingled
snorings, sneezings, coughings and
half-crowings.
Roup, roup, roup, spoke from every
corner. He examined two of the
worst ones. They were old hens, but
mere skin and bones. They both had
apparently had the roup for months
and become cmaciated by it, for the
roup affects the digestive organs more
often than the head. Not one of the
fowls was worth keeping. Not one
of them would lay an egg all winter,
and it is doubtful if they would ever
lay. They were returned to the farm-
er, who was duly indignant that his
fowls were considered sick, but insist-
ed that they were in perfect health.
He evidently thought his fowls were
not sick because they did not have the
swelled head. The mere fact of their
mouths being full of stringy mucus
told him nothing. The fact that they
ate but little should have convinced
him that something was wrong. This
is one of the worst features of fowls
troubled with roup; they eat but lit-
tle, as their digestion is slow, due to
the inflamed condition of the mucous
membrane. A healthy fowl will pack
the crop full of grain. Feel of their
crops when they have retired to rest
after a full supper and it will be found
distended by the food. But a fowl
that is only slightly affected by roup
is not so. If the crop be felt of at
that time it will be found only a quar-
ter or half full, and frequently the
pressure of the hand induces the bird
to stretch its neck and gasp as if for
air. This probably is due to the in-
flamed condition of the air tube.
The farmer that had these fowls
made a big show of producing eggs for
Bale at fancy prices. It was supposed
that he was getting many eggs, as he
kept a large number of hens. Acci-
dentally it was learned that he was
getting about one egg per day. The
reason his flock did not lay was doubt-
less the fact that roup was widely
prevalent among them. He said that
he had left the care of his fowls to the
hired man, to whom he had given in-
structions to notify him when any-
thing was the matter with the hons.
It is altogether probable that the hired
man did not know. If he noticed them
at all he merely said to himself that
the birds had a slight cold, not worth
reporting, of course. The roup will
eat up the profits from the best flock
of fowls that ever lived. It must be
watched for and fought. When it ap-
pears it must be eradicated. It is ex-
tremely contagious and we do not be-
lieve there is any cure for it. This
year it seems to be more than usually
prevalent. Probably it is more to be
feared than any other disease. It may
be considered more dangerous to the
profits of the poultry raiser than even
cholera. When the latter disease
comes its makes its presence knows
by its work of death. The keeper at
once takes measures to combat it. But
it is not so with the roup. It creeps
into the flock and develops very grad-
ually. Most farmers do not suspect its
presence. It does not swell the head
except in some cases. The fowls run
about and often their combs remain
bright and healthy looking for months.
We have seen fowls that had It so bad
that canker sores formed in their
mouths and yet they did not appear
sick, their combs showing all the in-
dications of health. So the farmer sus-
pects nothing, while the disease is
spreading from fowl to fowl till all are
infected. After awhile one or two fall
suddenly sick with diarrhea or their
heads swell up. The farmer inquires
and is told that the trouble is roup
and that he can cure it by using such
and such means. He goes to work
and very likely reduces the swelled
heads, and thinks he has cured his
bird. Very likely he writes to the farm
paper telling of his success in curing
roup. But he has not cured it. He
may have separated the bird from the
rest to prevent further infection, but
lie did not prevent further infection for
the reason that the flock has been al-
ready infected. His battle with roup
will have only begun, as fowl after
•owl will ultimately fall sick. It is
probable that some fowls have enough
vitality to resist the disease, but of
:his we are not certain. Closer obser-
vation must be followed if the trouble
s to be avoided.
Warming; Water for Stock.
In these times it is necessary that
he farmer should watch every item of
Expenditure and husband every re-
source. There is an old saying that
"the ljftle foxes spoil the vines." This
meaps that little things if unnoticed
cause great losses and often result In
fln&nclal ruin. There are on the farm
many leaka through which go out the
hard earnings of the farmer. More
than any other, the loss from lust heat
should be guarded against. Heat costs
money. Every unit of heat coats some-
thing, according to the food from
which it is made. We may say then
that heat is money. To save the loss
of this heat Is to save money, for it
will save food. Some farmers feed the
winds as well as their stock. Every
loose board on a barn is a means by
which the farmer feeds the wind. That
is, the cold filches away the heat from
the bodies of his animals. More farm-
ers feed the waters. There are farmers
that are very careful to keep from
feeding the winds, and keep their barns
tight. But they Jo not hesitate twice
a day to give their cattle icecold water.
It Is not an uncommon sight to see a
cow drink three pailfuls of water at a
single time. When such water is at a
temperature of about 32 degrees it
means that the water so consumed
must be raised to a temperature of over
90 degrees. In fact, we are told by
doctors that the digestive process stops
till the water has been raised to blood
heat. Think of the heat necessary to
raise water in a cow's stomach to 60
degrees. Remember that that heat has
been made by feeding the cow food that
costs a great deal of money.
It Is certainly much cheaper to raise
the temperature by means of the loose
wood lying around the farm that costs
nothing but the effort to gather it. To
build a fire for the heating of water on
a cold day Is a pleasing operation. If
the heat from the lire reaches the cows
and other stock it will prove a pleas-
ing operation to them as well as to the
farmer. The only cost Is therefore the
first cost for a boiler. But these may
be purchased at almost any price. The
well-to-do farmer that can afford to
purchase to suit his convenience and
fancy can pay a high price if he wants
to. If not, he can do as the humbler
farmer will most likely do—purchase
a good boiler at a moderate price. The
saving in cost of feed will prove a big
interest on the investment. Remem-
ber this, that whereas a farmer may
lose feed on account of cold winds, yet
(hero ar« many warm, sunny days in
winter, when he will lose little in this
way. But the man that loses feed on
account of icy water must expect that
loss every day in the winter season,
for the water supply does not change
Its temperature as often as the air, nor
does it respond quickly to the change
in temperature. It is hidden away In
the ground, locked up with the frost,
or waiting in ice caves. When the
warm days in winter come the ice and
snow melt and make still colder these
waters. All of these are to be drank
by the stock. If we were to figure on
the matter, we would say that a full-
sized cow would lose several cents per
day if allowed to drink ice cold water.
When we consider that many farmers
have all the way from twenty to a hun-
dred cows we can see what a great loss
he must face during an entire winter
season. Dairymen especially should
see that their cows have, for drinking
purposes, only water that has been
raised to a suitable temperature.
Improved Fruits.
The limit of improvements is not
found in producing fruits of great size,
beauty and sweetness. There are other
desirable qualities that the horticul-
turist is anxious to obtain, and toward
this end he is devoting his energies,
says a writer in Lippincott's. One of
! the most notlccable trends of the sci-
ence of fruit culture is toward the elim-
ination of undersirable organs. The
thorns of some of the citrus fruit
trees, and the prickles of such small
berry bushes as the gooseberry, black-
berry and raspberry, are protuberances
that have outlived their usefulness and
are highly unpleasant. They not only
puncture the ripening fruits, but they
often make harvesting exc dingly in-
convenient. Gardeners have long
wished to do away with these thorns
and prickles, but it is only within a
few years that systematic efforts have
been made to eliminate them. The
thorns are conspicuous organs of our
cultivated plants that have ceased to
be of any value, for their original pur-
pose of protecting the plants from ani-
mals has no force to-day in the gar-
dens and fields. They should have
been exterminated long ago. Through
the careful selection of plants that
happen to be thornless, stocks are ob-
tained for a new race of thornless
plants. Others are noted for a few
thorns that grow on them, and by ju-
dicious selection of seeds and grafts
from these the same work is continued.
Already gardeners have cultivated
raspberry and blackberry canes that
ar entirely thornless, and by grafting
improved varieties on these the desir-
ed end will soon be reached. The wild
orange trees have many more thorns
on them than the budded stock, and
the wild Florida lemons are thickly
studded with thorn, while the grafted
La France have none.
Teeth of Sheep.—There is a peculiar-
ity in the mechanism of a sheep's jaw
and grinders that helps one to under-
stand the reason why sheep are able to
get so much nutriment from their food.
In noticing a sheep chewing its cud it
cannot be observed that the jaw, has a
peculiar motion from side to side. The
branches of the lower jaw are closer
together than the molars are in the
upper. Then in the molars their edges
have different slopes. In the upper row
the face of the molar slopes very de-
cidedly from the higher inner edge to
the lower outer, while in molars of the
lower jaw the faces slope from the out-
er edge to the higher inner. These
things, together with the rough sur-
face of the molars, give a sheep the
power to thoroughly grind its food.
Tattle Halving In Colorado.
Bulletin 34, Colorado Experiment
Station: The bane of the cattle bual
ness in Colorado, as elsewhere, is the
! cattle ihlef. or "rustler." If It were
not for the danger of loss from this
! source, the cattle could be left to them-
selves most of the time through the
summer, and. by the use of fences
around the winter range, but little time
I would necessarily be devoted to them
the rest of the year. But the rustler
j is omnipresent, and if it were known
t that nobody was looking out for any
given herd, it would rapidly disappear.
This necessity for riding the range
| nearly all the year largely increases
the cost of running cattle, especially
considering the small sizes of the
bunches. All degrees of winter feed-
ing exist. There are few winter ranges
so good that the animals will gain in
weight during cold weather. The first
frosts come in September, and from
then until the new grass starts the
next May, animals on the range do
well if they hold their weight. This
leaves but five months in the year for
the animal to grow and seven months
for it to stand still or even go back-
ward.
It is evident that, if winter feed
were good enough to keep the animal
growing all the time it would bring the
animal to marketable size in a much
shorter time. The present tendency of
cattle raising is in this direction. A
large number of cattle in the state are
wintered on range feed mostly in the ,
bottom land. A still larger number
are fed through part of the winter on
native hay cut along the streams. A JHH„
smaller number are wintered on tame Am| we reproduce the oath bore. For any

cipal reason for wintering cattle in the
irrigated regions. All this good feed
material would otherwise be a total j
loss. Grain stubble and the straw that |
goes with it sells for winter feeding at J
from $70 to $100 per quarter section, j
The cattle get considerable grain from j
the stubble and from the chaff at the i
straw stacks. It is not expected that
cattle wintered in this way will gain
in weight, but It is a rather cheap way
of carrying stock through the winter.
In whatever way stock are wintered,
there are few feeders in the state who
do not make some arrangement for
giving their stock extra feed in cases
of unusually severe storms. Th«y thus
reduce the risk of running cattle, and
in the course of years greatly reduce
the winter losses. When cattle were
allowed to rustle for themselves, there
was a profit in the business, on the
average, because beef was high and
summer feed cost nothing. But when
the severe storms did come many a
herd was almost wiped out of exist-
ence, and the owners ruined finan-
cially. Stock raising under such a sys- j
tem was gambling on the weather of
the next winter. As the price of beef [
fell, the business could not stand such
a heavy drain on its profits and the
cr'tlemen either went out of the bus-
iness or made provision for a more cer-
tain winter feed. The most trying
time of tho year for stock is the
months of March, April and May, when j
the stock, already weakened by winter- [
ing on scant rations, are turned off the
stubble fields onto the summer ranges.

supply their wants, and late storms
often do enormous damage. A 6tack ]
or two of hay carried over until this
time is often the most profitable crop
of the year. Many farmers carry hay J
to the range, and the cattle soon learn j
where to so for fodder during storms.
The most economical winter feeding
is that where the summer range is
near the winter range, so that the cat-
tle can be left as long as possible on
the summer range and, when brought
to the winter range, they are then near
the place where the hay was cut. Un-
der these conditions they can gather
their own living, except in case of
storms or deep snows. Hay is then fed
without moving them from the range.
The usual amount is ten pounds of
hay per head per day. They may need
to be fed but a coupie of days, before
the weather moderates, or this feeding
may in extreme cases last continuous-
ly for months, as it did in the winter
of 1894-95 on some ranges. The hay
is fed scattered on the ground, cattle-
men having found by experience that
but little is thus wasted and there is
a saving of the cost of racks and the
considerable danger of accidents that
come from the crowding and pushing
of rackfed cattle.
Straw can be profitably used as a
large part of the food for cattle that
are being fed through the winter.
West of the main range in Colorado,
where the number of cattle is large as
compared with the land sown to grain,
nearly all the straw is so used.

Stock Growing.—Usually it is no good
for farmers to change from one kind
of stock growing to another. Generally
it is the man who keeps right on grow-
ing the same kind of stock who makes
the most money in the end. To every
rule there are exceptions, and where
hog cholera or other diseases manifest
themselves, they furnish the excep-
tions. The question then becomes one
of a choice of growing live stock under
conditions of extreme hazard, and
growing it under conditions of but lit-
tle hazard. It is plain as day therefore
where the choice should lay.—Ex.
