Some Things which Many Poultry Kespa
srs Do Not Understand.
When q variety Of food is given, the
quantity should not be increased to q
greater amount than when grain ID
given. Those who feed grain make the
mistake of not diminishing the grain
in proportion to the clover or meat
added. For a laying hen that is pro.
ducing eggs regularly, the estimate OF
food allowed per day is four ounces,
but 1t does not require any explanation
from us to convince those who keep
poultry that four ounces of grain is q
very different thing from four ounces
Of cabbage or potatoes, as the one is q
concentrated food, while the others
consist largely of water. A gill Of
corn is about three ounces, and by
using the gill as mode of measure.
ment the feeding may be easily regu.
lated. No quantity of grain, whether
OF wheat or corn, given to fowl
should exceed one gill q tny, and this
also depends upon the breed to q great
extent, and even upon individual hens
OF the breeds, as some eat more, and
require more than others.
Finely-cut, fresh bone with adher.
ing meat is also concentrated food
more so than grain-hence, in feeding
the hens one ounce Of bone and meat
daily (Which is ample), the gill of grain
must be reduced to one-half, as the
bone and meat compensate for the
grain. It would be expensive feeding
If this equalization Of foods was not
given attention, and the hens would
soon become overfat and worthless.
Allowing four ounces of food per day
(three of grain and one Of bulky food),
and estimating gill as three ounces,
the gill should be reduced in accord.
ance with the quality Of the food. II
an ounce Of the bone and meat is given,
it should equal one and half ounces
Of grain. If finely-cut clover is given,
one ounce Of the clover should equal
only half an ounce of grain, because
the grain is more concentrated than
the clover. We donot claim that these
proportions are correct. but they en-.
able the poultryman to roughly esti.
mate how to feed. The hen that does
not lay should be fed only one-half al
much as the laying hen. owing to the
fact that one is producer and the

How . Texas Farmer Killed the Destruc,

For many years in succession I have
had my corn in the bin more or less
ruined by the weevils. From my own
experience in this line I should Judge
that there is an annual loss Of over q
million of dollars from weevils In
Texas alone. Could the weevil ba

it is now, there is great deal of truth
in the saying that Kansas feeds Texas,

Ihave experimental with different
insecticides to prevent the ravages Of
this insect, but as it is hard to kill my
experiments failed until last year.
Last fall in putting up my corn
placed two open bottles Of bisulphre,
carbon, four feet apart, on the floor Of
the bin. The mouths Of these bottles
were covered with layer Of cheese
cloth, and each bottle covered with an
old broken box. The corn was thrown
on these boxes, and the bin filed to its
utmost capacity.
The result of this experiment was
highly successful; what weevils were
admitted from the field were destroyed
and none further appeared. Thus, al
a cost of fifty cents, with very little
trouble. effectually protected about
five hundred bushels of corn against
weevils Another feature about this
experiment is that I have noticed
neither mouse nor rat in the bin, nor
any traces of them, which was not the
case before, for in previous years
they. too, had done great damage to
the corn. ,i It
