notified of the faculty's action in the

Some. Hen Pecks For Amateurs.


Raw meat. chopped fine, aud fed
moderately, say alb ,ut three times
week, will greatly stimulate egg pro-
duction. Feed about a pound to IA
hens.
d. not allow any water to accumu'
late in the poultry house. DAmpness
can not b. tolerated by any healthy
flock.
Fowls. like pigs are fond of milk !,
sweet or sour, but many on the farm
feed it all to the pigs. Try dividing
with the poultry; they will soon show
you whether they appreciate it or not.
Corn is good weather feed for
fowls, but would not advise much of
it in warm weather, for it produces
too much heat, and is too fattening
for layers.
Keep pure bred poultry; the cost
of feed is no greater, aud they are a
source of more pleasure and profit
A good farm and good poultry yard
both demand good stock.
Have svstem in the man agement of
poultry. L Know OF no DuslAess Where
method is more needed. The flock
that gets it's food at ''sundry times
and divers places seldom pays good
profit. A part OF the system of poul-
try raising should be to have a settled
order of feeding, list of foods, and
time for giving those foods, regulat-
ing them as the season or develop.
ment of the fowl shall demand.
From this time forth, be on the
alert for vermin of all kinds. Better
thoroughly disinfect the house. Use
whitewash, carbolic acid, and burr
sulphur to destroy lice and mites.

cleaning in connection with our poul-
try as with our family and 6nd il

recommendation: To a quart of
cornmeal dough or bread, put fifteen
or twenty drops of the oil; give once
a DIV for several days or until the
chicks are clear of insects; then feed
once a week as a preventative You
can get this oil at any drug store.
