Care Of Chickens.

bread soaked in sweet milk or hard
boiled eggs. The little fellows will In
a short time gain strength very rap

very fine and care should be taken not
20 oyerfeed as too much should not
be given al one time. Feed five or
six times a day for the first ten days
After the third day oatmeal will be
found a very excellent diet. Great
care should be taken also In feeding
this for the first few days. as II Is
very loosening. The meal should be
fed In dry form and can be alternated
with the bread or eggs. After they
become more used 70 the meal IL can
be kept before them at all times In
litter. such as very fine cut clover
or hay. Grit OF some sort should be
provided from the first. and should
be kept in a low dish that the chicks
may have free access 20 az all times.
Now as the chickens get older the
food should gradually be changed and
more uncoolied food should be given.

fine or cracked wheat will be found
