BALANCED RArIoN FOR HENS.
An Expert Sets out the Particulars and
Asks Nerification.

What shall l feed my hens to make
them lay in cold weather? This is the
| question we are all asking, and how shall
It be answered? The hen is a peculiar
thing and will not always shell out the
eggs even when we think we are furnish
ing her with all that is required 10 meet
her needs: but we may as well acknOwl-
edge at the start that we are ignorant
and do not fully understand the needs Of
a laying hen. When a pullet has reached
maturity and has a warm pen with plenty
Of exercise and yet fails to produce eggs,
we may be sure that We are net supplying
her with all the egg-forming food that
she needs We may feed an abundance
Of good food yet if 1t IS lacking in any
ingredient that is needed 10 form the egg
we may look for eggs in vain.
We hear a great deal about the bal
anced rationed theory for dairy cows and
other farm stock but the same principles
have not as yet been practically applied
to the feeding OF poultry. Now and then
may be found a poultry man who has
studied the needs of his fOcks and who Is
able TO obtain satisfactory returns even
at this time of year, yet 1t is seldom that
such an one can tell why he fe eds as he
does-except to give as a reason that 1t
pays. This is reason enough, 20 be sure,
when looked at from the standpoint OF
results alone; but one ration may prove
to be a profitable feed. while another
which may differ but slightly proves to be
nearly worthless. What makes the differ
ence? The one is a balanced ration. the
other is not-in other words, one contains
all the different ingredients needed TO
support the hen and form the egg, while
the other Is deficient in some way.
What is a balanced ration for laying
hens? As far as / have learned, answers
r. c. Dow in the Maine Farmer, there is
no scientific standard by which we may
be guided. but nay conclusion is that
grain ration that supplies digestible al
buminoids and carbohydrates in the pro-
portion Of one to five with cooked pota-
toes, or their equivalent. 10 the amount
Of one quart daily for every twenty hens,
to which should be added a supply OF
bone or shell and "a limited quantity Of
lean meat daily, comes as near a bal
anced ration as we need to have for profit
able results. II my conclusions are
wrong shall be glad 10 be corrected by
those whose greater knowledge and ex-
perience enable them to speai, with more
certainty.

This morning about the time that Judge Miller
resumed the hearing Of the case Of Policeman
Hayhurst. charged with clubbing Mr.. Samuel
Gregory in the first precinct station, Judge
Kimball was hearing a case Of citizen who
was arrested at the same police station yester-
day and charged with disorderly conduct.
The citizen was Mr.. Lewis Kray. He wit
messed an attempted assault on Pennsylvania
avenue and be also saw the arrest Of the man
who came resr being assaulted.
Mr.. kray thinking an injustice might be done
suggested the arrest Of the party responsible
for the trouble and then he went to the police
station to enter his complaint.
He had no business there" said Policeman
Donovan. land when ordered out by the ser
geant he refused TO 60"
Was he disorderly?" the court asked
'.Yes, YOUR honor" was the officer reply.
''W hat was the disorder?''
he refused to so out when ordered to do SO
by the sergeant"
Was he profane?'
NO. SIR"
Judge kimball said that Mr. Kray had acted
the part OF good citizen Instead Of troubling
the oficer on the street he went to the station,
and very properly 50. 10 make q complaint
The case was dismissed.

A Sound That Appeals to All but the Deaf
From the Chicago Daily Inter-Ocean.
He had tried to work the Palmer. He had
registered as J. c. Moberly Of New York, and
the only thing he had about him that was out
Of the ordinary was an extreme deafness
Clerk Cunningham had made himself hoarse
in trying to convince the man that he was not
acceptable to the house. and nearly everybody
about the Office had done the same thing.
The man put on an indignant air and refused
to hear or understand what it was the intention
Of the people to crowd into his head.
Finally Cunningham gave up his place at the
desk to the gentleman who writes figures upside
down on the register in turn with himself, and
then, putting on an overcoat and hat and an air
Of nonchalance. he wandered to the rotunda,
where Mr.. Moberly was trying to read q note
from the manager and still acting very deaf
Cunningham gradually worked himself around
until he got within ten feet of the very deaf
man from New York, and then he took some
silver money from his pocket. While counting
the money and lingering it, Cunningham acct
dentally CD dropped silver dollar.
With u quick start the deaf Mr.. Moberly
turned as if to deliver pivot blow, and looked
In the direction from which the sound came.
No more was necessary. Mr.. Moberly, deaf
ness and all, was elected.
II heard about that once" said Cunning
ham. Somebody told me that if a man was
feignIng deafness a coin dropped near him
would throw him Of his guard, and he would,
without thinking, turn quickly. Thought that
would try it on this fakir, and you see that it
will work like charm"
