Words of Advice from . Woman Who
Knows Whereof She Speaks.
In paper contributed to the Wis
consin farm Institutes, Mrs Ida E.
Tlson said: There is no safer food for
little chicks than milk curd and bread
and milk. Hard boiled eggs perhaps
once every other day is good, but the
cheaper corn meal must gradually re-
place these. Soon, one-third of bran,
ground oats, rye or beans, and two
thirds corn meal will be relished. To
neither chickens nor hens give any
sort of meal without scalding it. Salt,
pepper and other spices, when used.
are mixed dry sparingIy in the meal
before wetting. Wheat is a safe food
to be given as soon as it can be swal-
lowed, and meat can be given with
care that it does not prove laxative.
Corn is preeminently the fattening
food. Wheat, buckwheat, rye, vege-
tables and meat are bone-foI ming and
producing. Barley is a favorite in
England, because standing midway be-
tween wheat and corn, contributing
somewhat to both eggs and flesh.
feed little chicks FIVE times a day,
larger ones three times, and grown
fowls twice. A quart of grain per day
for every ten hens has been found a
satisfactory winter ration. To this
add, one day in each three, chopped
vegetables and fine charcoal, cooked
meat and gravel, meal pudding
and bone meal. Oat hulls are
so dry and harsh, they are rather
indigestible. Whole oats, though an
excellent summer food, cannot there
fore be recommended during winters
trying confinement Raw bone is bone,
with its phosphates. Burned bone is a
good but expensive form of lime and
charcoal A half ration of grain will
suffice for summer with its insects and
grass, but particular at tention must be
given food in moulting time. Then l
feed more pudding than usual, as it
is easily digested, and add sun-fower
seed and corn for fat forming foods.
Milk, if sweet, is perfect food and
model drink. A fermented sour is not
identical with natural acid, like
fruit juice, hence sour milk freely
used needs little soda added or a
slight scalding, else it may prove too
laxative. Lime water can be given in
excess, but, tried for day or so at a
time, is an excellent regulator of the
bowels. 1 give poultry warm water in
winter, because digestion is helped
thereby. When hen-houses are opened
mornings, their thirsty, hungry in.
mates rush in all directions, eating and
drinking where they can, unless water
dishes and feed-troughs are previously
filed and conveniently placed. The
Douglass mixture is i h. sulphate Of
iron and l OF. sulphuric acid, dissolved
in gallons of water. A teaspoonful
of this mixture to every pint of drink
ing water was formerly very popular
as tonic. Decapitating rather than
doctoring sick fowls seems to be the
modern tendency, since SO worth of
time and medicine are generally re.
quired for curing each 25-cent bird.
Decapitation applies also to scaly.
legged, gg-eating, roaming fowls and
all morbid conditions. If eggs are
gathered often, and glass nest-eggs
are used, the egg-eating habit probably
will never be learned. The Japanese
egg gourd, when grown to proper
size, is cheap and good nest-egg.

sides the grating hook, are a fine
toethed saw to cut off the stock, a
sharp knife to smooth the cut and fit
the scions and small mallet A little
tallow used occasionally will prevent
the wax from sticking to the oper-
ator's fingers. In crown-grafting no
cleft is made across the stump. A
small stiletto or bodkin is generally
inserted between the bark and the sap
wood of the tree and when it is with
drawn the scion is pushed down in its
place. The scion is cut very thin and
sloping, the cut beginning opposite a
bud where a shoulder is left to allow
it to rest more firmly upon the stock.
1t is not profitable to graft very large
branches, as it takes too long for the
wounds to heal over, and too much of
the tree ought not to be cut away at
one time. The cuts should be kept
waxed over for year or two and all
suckers removed Crown-grafting may
be done later in the season, when the
bark might be stripped from the stock
by the other method. Another ad.
vantage is that no wound is made
across the stock, as in cleft-grafting.-
