FEEDING THE HENS.
Good Judgment Is Necessary for Best
Results, Both as to Eggs and
Health of Fowls.

Feeding regulates the number of eggs
produced and also the health of the
fowls. More harm is done by overfeed-
ing than by undertaking Never feed
soft food If it can be avoided. The giz-
card is intended for grinding the food,
and to deprive it of that function is to
induce disease. There are some foods,
however, that must be moistened, but
the hard foods should be preferred, CIV
ing soft foods not oftener than once
every other day.
If poultry must be fattened for market
there is no better food than corn, but
for laying hens corn is too heating in
summer, contains an insufficient supply
of mineral matter. and is not well sup
piled with protein. Corn and wheat
should be portion of the winter ration,
as the bodies of the fowls must then
be kept warm. In the summer season
less concentrated ration is more suita-
BILE S,He of the best hard foods that
may ,igen daily with corn are cow
peas soy beans. or cheap white beans,
the former being quickly, easily, and
seasons. A morning food of equal parts
of wheat and cOw-peas, with corn and
cow-peas at night. will prove satisfac-
tory. The next day. for the morning
meal use one-half pound of clover hay
but fine, and scalded the night before
To this add one-half pound of bran, one
half pound of ground meat, and one-half
M ri TN
enough corn meal to make the mess
somewhat dry. At night give mixed
corn and wheat. Keep box of mica grit.
and also of coarse ground bone. always
within reach.
How much to feed Is a problem. No
two hens. says the Prairie Farmer, eat
the same quantity. nor will flock eat
the same amount every day. No fixed
quantity can be suggested, as only OBJ
servation can guide the poultryman.
Always scatter the whole food. feeding
the soft food in a trough. carefully re-
moving all that Is not eaten. Do not
leave food constantly before fowls. The
liability is that overlooking will make
the laying hens too fat. Between meals

will keep them busy. It is estimated that
one quart of corn per day. for dozen
fowls or its equivalent, is the proper av-
erage allowance
To know when hen is too fat weigh

the hens al least once week If they
have lost in weight give more food; if

shell eggs, abnormally large eggs. very
small eggs, double yolk eggs and then
begin to cease laying. Fat hens are
usually also inclined to sit. Even non
sitter will become broody when fat
Another plan is to weigh the food and
give the hens all they will eat. or until
they walk away from The trough.
Weigh that left over, and the difference
between the weight of all the food and
that left over is the amount eaten. You
will then know how much your hens
will eat at meal, but it does not imply
that all hens will eat that quantity. and
the same hens may consume less the
next day. After learning the maximum
quantity they will consume reduce it
one-half for the morning meal. but give
as much as they will eat at night.
In summer, as the wants of the fowls
will be fewer, less grain and even less
food is necessary. Fowls that FORAGE.
and have abundant opportunities for
securing food. may not require any as
sistance al all, no food being necessary
Very young rye, grass, or clover. may
be laxative at first, and fowls should
not be compelled to subsist on Green
food too oc ~ in the spring
The fact is. that hen is somewhat
like hog; she will eat almost anything.
and may therefore be fed on large va
riety of foods, even hay (cut fine and
scalded) being accepted, while cooked
potatoes, carrots, turnips and table ref
use Will be relished. The main point is
not what to feed, but how NOT to feed too
much. always giving suitable allow
ance OF animal food, such as ground
meat or ground blood.

MIR. Burt replied:

preparation it would be another thing,
but it is not. everything it contains is
named on the label.
Ninol is simply the upto-date form of
administering cod liver oil, which for
centuries has been recognized as the
grandest of all bodybuilding agents for
wasted human strength and vitality, and
during the last five years we have seen
it produce such grand results that we
are now willing TO back it with any kind
of a guarantee.
In NinOl we have simply done away
with the useless, system-clogging oil
and have given to the people all the

liver oil in highly concentrated and
deliciously palatable form, and we have
never sold in our store Il medicine of

HIS LOUD CLOTHES


Henry Wrieden, driver for the Ma
tional Express Company. was unloading
a number of trunks from an express
wagon in front of the Jersey City branch
office of the company. No. 100 Hudson
street, at noon. when one of the trunks
landed somewhat heavily on the side
walk. Instantly there was muffled
roar, followed quickly by loud exTIlo
sion that shook the pavement. The
trunk, which was built on the lines of
a Saratoga and braced with stout oak
slabs, bounded up from the pavement,
the bottom and sides protruded, the oak
slabs swapping like chowder crackers.
around first one way and then the other
and then lay still. Driver Wrieden
didn't stop to watch its antics. He beat
it down the street crying, 'MurdeI',"
dynamite etc. The several drivers
and helpers in front of the branch Of
fee followed Wrieden's example. The
clerks came running Sout of the office
with scared faces. Pedestrians who
heard the explosion and seeing men run

There were numerous pieces of copper
