Rations For Poultry.

Even the novice in poultry raising
who has tried feeding considerable va.
riety during the winter admits that the
egg production is thereby materially
increased. The one danger in feeding
a variety of grains is having too many
of them of a fattening nature. In this
grade come corn, oats and buckwheat,
hence when corn must compose the
main portion of the ration it is best
that oats OF buckwheat be fed only
once or twice week, using wheat and
millet to extend the ration. This, of
course, refers TO laying hens. Taking
the grains named as basis OF feeding,
a good course would be something like
this: Monday, mash in the morning,
millet in the litter at noon, crushed
oats at night; Wednesday, mash in the
morning, buckwheat in the litter at
noon, corn at night: Thursday, mash
in the morning, millet 1T noon. wheat
at night; Friday, morning mash, noon
wheat, night corn; Saturday, morning
mash, corn at noon. wheat at night
Sunday, morning mash. wheat at noon,
corn at night. If one is in the habit OF
feeding the warm mash at night, then
the morning and night foods are simply
reversed. 1t will be noticed that corn
is fed at night four times during the
week, and this is done because corn
will keep the fowls warmer on cold
night than any other grain, IL will pay
to experiment somewhat in feeding a
variety of grains and see what combl-
nations give the best results.-Indian-
apolis News.

Paints For Farm Buildings.

Few things are more pleasing to see
in any section of country than well
painted farm buildings. They are indi-
cative of content and thrift and, even
though not always up to date, testify
that the owners are in love with their
surroundings. But not every farmer
can afford TO buy patent paints, much
less oil and lead. for their barns and
outbulldings. This, of course, Is la
mentable, for any structure should be
painted before showing that II needs il
badly, one coat of paint then doing bet
ter and being far more economical than
two coats later, when the surface has
become very dry and porous. 1t is
claimed, in fact. that single coat OF
boiled linseed oil applied TO the paint
when 1t first begins TO fade will suffice
at that period, and this, astorlng both
color and texture, make the surface as
good as ever According, under such
system of treatment, 1t is advisable
TO put on, in the first place, three coats
of the best paint obtainable, 1t should
be done, moreover, in cold weather. un-
der which conditions 1t will wear a
third longer than when put on in warm
or hot weather. 1t is generally a waste
of money to purchase cheap patent
paints for any purpose whatever. II
first-class ones are not to be bad there
fore, simply don't bny any but try the
following mixture: Fill n tub two-thirds
full of skim sweet milk and stir in
water lime until 1t is partly thickened.
Color it with Venetian red chrome vel
low or the like. as desired. and put II
on with wide brush, rubbing II In
some. Keeping Ii well stirred both In
the pail and tub to prevent the lime
from settling and leaving the milk too
thin; the object is TO have 1t OF snch
consistency that the grain Of the wood
will show through when putting 1t on.
1t should be more Of stain than q
thick paint, In which case one can go
over a large building with 1t In day,
hence the cost of II is SO small that II a
new coat were required every year II
would still be less expensive than the
application OF oil and lead. Happily.
however, 1t will last several years. and

There is more or less objection en- the
part of some poultry keepers to remov.
ing the droppings from the poultry
houses daily, although this is undoubt-
edly the best way Of keeping this por-
tion of the house clean. If the roosts
are located as they should be there will
be dropping board under them, which
will receive al the droppings. so that
it is easy to remove them with hoe.
In cold weather it may not he neces-
sary TO remove them daily unless one
has large number of fowls. but they
should be sprinkled either with land
plaster or with dirt to keep down the
Odor, as well as TO retain their fertiliz.
ing value. DO not use lime. for this re-
leases the ammonia in the manure. its
most valuable fertilizer. Covered as
described each day. the droppings may
be removed once or twice week and
the board then sprinkled lightly with
lime or with Il solution OF carbolic acid.

AGRICULTURAL.


Prof. Kennedy says about economi-
cal hog feeding: Where the hogs have
liberal ration of clover pasture and
blue grass, with ration of corn, wheat
and oats mixed, of about two parts
corn, two parts wheat and two parts
oats with eight per cent. oil meal, fed
in the form of thick slop, 1t will give
most excellent results. This will give
extra heavy gains, but will not be MS
economical as ration which will make
heavy gains and is at the same time
economical, of four parts cornmeal and
one part tankage, fed in the form of a
thick slop. This is considered one of
the best by him.--Tribune Farmer.

Draining.

The work of draining and ditching
land needing this should now receive
attention. In putting in drains see
that they are put in deep enough. No
drain should be less than three feet
deep, and three feet six inches or -four
feet is often better. 1t is not the water
that falls OH the surface that needs to
be gotten away, but that which is stag
nant below the surface. Make provis-
ions for this and that which falls on
the surface will do no harm. See that
drains have sufficient fall TO clear
themselves quickly, and that e. good
open outfall is secured. In draining Il
hillside do not run the drains around
the hill. Put in this way they will
draw the water from both sides of the
drain, whilst drain run around hill
will only take water from one side.
