Rood for Young Chicks.

1t is useless to attempt to raise
young chicks on corn meal dough,
as such fopd is not sufficient. Very
young chicks should be fed three
times a day, and millet seed should
be scattered 80 as to induce them
to exercise in seeking the seeds. An
excellent food for young chic6s is
bread, made of the following sub
stances: Sifted ground oats, /
pound; corn meal, pound; bran, /
pound; niddlings, / pound; ground
meat, 1 pound; ground clover, 1
pound; salt, 2 ounces; bread soda, l
ounce. The bread should be crum-
bled, given dry, and on clean
boards, allowing no food to remain,
as it will become sour if uneaten.
