PlNHATHERS,

Whole corn is the best grain to give
at night.
Sweet milk is rellshed by young
chickens and is good for them. but it
should not take the place Of water.
Too many ROSTERS with the hens will
usually result in large number of un-
fertile eggs and weakened chickens.
If the hens a.e allowed to make
nests in the stables. they may not OILY
create filth therein. but will also carry
lice in with them.
If a fowl seems droopy or stands off
by itself all drawn up in a bunch and
yet eats when food is given it, examine
closely for vermin.
Fresh earth in the hennery for
scratching and busting is indispensa-
BILE. 1t will cleanse the feathers and
skin of impurities and lice.
Young pullets Matched late will not
lay in winter if they do not mature by
November, but will begin to lay early
in the spring if fed through the winter.
