meat should be used to supply the
place of the worms and insects.
Fine birds can be raised in the
southwest in May and June by giving
them this extra attention and unusual
war is made upon lice. We believe
there are more lice in May than any
month in the year. If we had failed
to hatch as many chicks as we would
need for breeding stock or as many as
we could house without crowding
them, would certainly hatch them in
May and June and by giving them the
proper attention raise good ones. But
one should be careful not to over do
it, When we undertake to give eX-
ira attention if not careful will over
feed.
Grit and plenty of it should be sup
piled chicks. We use ground oyster
shells, but pounded glass, finty rocks
or broken crockery is good. We keep
water before them at all times. Our
fountains are common tin oyster cans
which we pick up at the stores or
corn and tomato cans. Two or three
through me, when [ should be your
small holes are punched in about a
half inch of the edge of the open end,
the can is filled with water, a saucer
is then placed over the open end and
when turned over quick the water
will run out until the hoIes in the can
are covered and just that amount Of
water will be in the saucer until the
can is emptied.- Southern Poultry

How to Feed and Raise Chicks.

People living on farms, or often
suburban lots, where chicks have
practically free range, have no trouble
in supplying food that will make large
and vigorous birds. But the people
living in cities Or towns whose range
is limited, often times to bare yard,
must give more attention to feeding.
and this holds good when breeder is
raising a large number. Where large
numbers are raised the range will not
supply the food that a small number
would get on the same ground. In
the first place roosting place which
will protect the chicks from rain must
be provided and ready for each clutch
before they are Matched, in which
they are placed. In front of this coop
we have run made of 10 inch wide
plank in which we keep the chicks for
two or three days. After that time
they are turned out as soon as fhe
dew is off. When we raised large
numbers we had a covered run the
width of the roosting coop and three
feet long in which the hen was con6n-
ed and the chicks could run out. We
say covered, it was a common Slated
coop. Our feed for them at the start
was egg bread made of corn meal,
eggs, soda and milk, also millet seed.
e
corn meal, bran and rolled oats or
oats we have ground at the mill, also
use millett seed and grits made of
corn. This is food we use when the

Selecting Good Layers.

The poultry breeder who is around
about his flock very much of the tine
soon learns to know which are the
best layers among his hens, for no
matter how large the flock, he knows
each one of them. There is as much
difference in the appearance OF hens
as in men, and the man who takes
proper care of his flock soon gets per-
sonally acquainted with each individ-
ual
AS a rule it is the hen which is ca
pable of doing the most damage that
is the best layer, because sluggish
hen never makes frst-class egg pro-
Queer. The hen that comes out of the
house first and goes in last is the one
to select as being among the best in
the flock
In a flock of the same variety the
ones with the largest combs almost
invariably will be the best layers, and
if to this is added wide back and
deep breast there is not much danger
of making a mistake by selecting her
as layer.
1t must be remembered that the gen
eral shape of the breed must be TAX
en- into consideration when selecting
the best type for a layer. A very lank
Cochin hen would look very chunky
if dressed in the plumage of a game
fowl, and unless you have fixed in
your mind the ideal shape of the
breed it will be slow work trying to
pick layer.
This is matter of greater imports
ance than is usually accorded to it,
for the main profit from a large MAJ
ljority of the focks of the country
must come from the production of
eggs. If care is taken in selecting
the breeding pens to take only such as
have the typical marks of good lay
er it will be but year or two until
the production of the flock is consid-
erably ncreased.-Exchange

but we have no market house in our
town. though l very often put some
lard or tallow in the scalded feed.
Now that we do not raise more than
200 chicks and have for them unlim-
tied range, we give them the first day
egg bread, after that scalded stuff,
such as we have mentioned, millet
and grits. We would use wheat if it
was not too expensive, also kaffir
corn, sorghum seed and barley. We
are careful not to feed too much, and
until they can get over IL inches
wide plank we keep them out of the
dew. However we want our chicks
on the range as early as possible, for
it's early in the morning that they
find the greatest number of worms
and insects. In April and May they
catch SO many, they will eat very lit
tie at the Z o'clock feed. About that
hour is when we feed them on a free
range. When the hens are confined
the chicks get their morning meal as
soon as we are out of bed We feed
three times a day.
Now fhis is the way we manage our
chicks, but you may have greater
variety of food. If so, use it by all
means. If your chicks have not free
range you should supply what ours
get on the range. When we can get
it we make up our dough with milk
instead Of scalding it. When we have
it we keep butter milk before them
all the time. Scalding the meal, bran
and ground oats cuts very little figure
and if we haven't hot water, never
wait for it but use cold water The
dough or mash made up with cold
water never brings on bowel trouble
but it's feeding too much of it made
with cold or with hot water. There is
lots of space wasted in papers about
sloppy food, if our chicks liked sloppy
food best or if it was the most econom-
ical way to feed, we would give it
to them but not enough to kill them.
However when we have variety of
grain and our chicks have free range
we do not feed them dough or mashes,
after they are three or four weeks old.
We believe it. is best to feed grain to
them and when they have bowel trou-
BILE we feed exclusively grain and
keep pounded glass before them. A
chick right out of the shell will pick
up INLET seed and "a hours old will
fine grits made out Of corn. We once
raised two clutches of chicks that
never had a crumb of bread or dough,
when grown was just as large and the
equal in every way of those that had
regular ton meals. They had rubbed
up rolle1 oats for two days, after that
mi4let seed, grits and wheat. We
never had healthier or better birds
than they were and we believe it is
the besl way to raise them when they
nave sufficient range.
TO raise fine and standard weight
birds Matched in the latter part of
May and June in this climate, they
must be fed better and greater vari-
ETY. than those Matched earlier. Usual
ly from the middle of May on through
the summer, insects and worms are
