Overlooking of Fowl.

Irregular feeding usually means over
feeding. The fowl, like other animals
that are not fed at proper intervals. is
liable to eat too much at one time, and
suffer from Indigestion. But such slIf-
fering means ceasing of egg produc-
ton for the fowl as surely as it does
of MIX production in the COW. There
is but one way to prevent this. and that
is the feeding at regular hours, and if
any cause as an enforced absence from
home. delays the feeding hour, give
less rather than more to the flock and
see that the larger and more greedy
ones do not obtain more than heir

because there is no longer a frontier to

there is no longer a wilderness to con-

But, though we are the same race,
with the same impulses, the same

Don't Use Nrilk Preserrat;res.

Several so-calied milk preservatives

very Injurious to health, and laws

enforced Unfortunately, the farmer
cannot control the milk after il leaves

Rentedr For Scale Lee.

The disease, sealy leg, is well known

is considered that the presence Of this
trouble does not affect the health of
the fowl, It is an Objectionable trouble
and ought to be removed. There is
good reason to believe that the com
fort II not the health Of the fowl is
affected, for the scaly leg is due to
parasite and the working Of the mite
must be more or less annoying to the
birds.
The illustration shows how the scaly
leg looks, and :: win be seen that 1t
differs from the other leg trouble
known as tuberculosis leg. The pene-
trating of the mites beneath the scales
causes them to protrude so that to
reach the mites and remove the cause
of the trouble the scales must be re-
moved. Soak the legs in warm, soapy
