To Make Chickens Grow Fast.

Nothing will enlarge the capacity OF a chicken
quicker than a varied oil of fare and q good sup
ply of green food. To chickens in confinement,
onion tops are especially acceptable. and the
tops are relished more than are the bulbs them
selves. Beet and turnip tops will be creedily
deyoured. That they may not be wasted, lay
them with the tops all one way and weight them
down with a stone. Bran and shorts, wheat
and oats, table scraps aud meat, with a very lit
tie corn, a few sunflower seeds and a small
amount OF buckwheat make an irresistible com
binarion, a combination that will make q chicken
grow and thrive In spite of itself.
To make pullets trot along toward maturity
with a wonderfully accelerated pace, give them
every morning q warm feed OF bran and shorts
and ground oats mixed up with milk, or meat
stock in which there is q little salt. At noon
give q feed Of meat. and at night all the wheat
they will eat and q little left to scratch for the
next day. In addition to this, provide green
food, crushed bones and pure water. and give
each day one heavy feed of broken dishes; they
will be eaten with avidity.
Feeding pepper often to fowls as a regular ap-
petizer is a bad practice. Although a very little
will do no harm, yet the continued use or the
condiment is liable to cause liver complaint.
Warm feed tends to have the same stimulating
effect without possessing the injurious qualities
of the cayenne.
The only way to make q chicken house is to
build it with a board floor. Where the drop
pings nightly fall on the ground the soil will be-
come foul and damp, even though it be cleaned
out every day of the year.
The ouors that then arise are unwholesome in
the extreme, will cause roup, and. in fact, near
ly all the ills that poultry flesh is heir to. The
board floor should then be kept covered with
two or three inches OF dry soil, which should be
repeatedly renewed.
The only way to make roosts is to make them
on a movable frame that may be taken out of
doors. there to be ecalded with boiling hot wa
ter, in which is a little crude carbolic acid.
Make the roosts all on q level and not more than
two feet high, thereby preventing much quar-
reling and the humble foot.
