which necessitated an extra session to discuss

BRAD for Chicken Food.

The following method of making
bread gives complete food and will
keep for several days: Mix equal parts
of bran, shipstuff. oat meal. corn meal,
buckwheat meal, and half rs much
bone meal, intimately together, says q
writer in Minnesota Farmers Institute
Bulletin. Place in a pot a quart of
beans and a quart Of rice, with enough
water to cook it we'll. Add quart of
milk, two tablespoonfuls of salt, .
teaspoonful of red pepper, and tea
spoonful of tincture of IRON. When
the rice and beans are thoroughly
cooked add q pound of crude tallow
and slowly thicken with the grain
mixture until thick enough to easily
crumble when cold. When adding
the grain throw in little fine char
coal or parched bran. twill be best to
make the mixture into cakes and bake
in an oven. 1t can be improved If q
piece of beef or . little fresh bul1ock's
blood be added to the beans and rice
while cooking. The bread, being we'll
cooked, can be easily digested, and
will supply all the requisites of bodily
growth. Three times week few
pinches of sulphur may be given AZ
any one of the meals to a brood.
