No grains that we have for the feed
ing Of poultry are more valuable as an
egg producing food than wheat and
hulled oats These two grains, with
little cracked corn and some millet seed
mixed in, make an excellent scratching
grain food for the laying hens. 1t may
better be mixed in the proportion of
one third wheat, one-third hulled oats,
the other third one-half each Of
cracked corn and millet seed. This
mixture is right for poultry that are
comfortably housed and protected from
the cold weather and the elements.
Where they are not properly housed
the proportion Of corn should be In
creased, as corn is heating food and
furnishes warmth to the fowls

The thing to be desired IS TO make
the hens hunt and dig continually for
food so they may have plenty of exer-
else. 1t is exercise they need and must
have or they will not lay, says the
Feather. There must be dry floor to
your henhouse, and this floor, whether
ground or board, must be covered with
six or eight inches of loose dry earth
or sand. Cover this with dry straw
foot deep and throw all of the grain that
the fowls get during the winter months
into this and make them dig and hunt
for it. No matter if they do make
dust; all the better, for this fine dust
flying about will be a protection
against all insect life that may be in
the house, and when you see the dust
flying you can feel assured that the
floor is dry and the hens are busy.
Small grain, such as broken corn,
wheat, oats, barley, millet seed and
buckwheat, is the best for them, as it
keeps them working longer to get
enough.

1t would appear that alfalfa, which
has enjoyed quite boom the past few
years as a valuable stock food, is now
to become a keen rival of common, or
red, clover as green food for poultry.
So far as we remember, the superior
feeding value of alfalfa was not gen.
orally known until A. f. Coburn Of the
Kansas state experiment station rec
commended it very highly, and Kansas,
following his advice, began to grow al
falfa quite extensively. Matters have
now reached stage where poultrymen
are becoming interested in this plant as
a source of green food for winter use.

The increasing scarcity Of game has
increased the demand for various poul-
try products out Of the usual line.
Among these are turkey broilers,
squads, small chicken broilers and
guinea broilers. A New York dealer
who has had to pay top prices for
young guinea chickens writes as fol-
lows with regard to this speciality:
young guineas have been coming
into favor since the passage Of the
stringent game laws, which have pre-
vented dealers and restaurant men
from getting sufficient game to supply
their wants. The guineas are wanted
when weighing from three-quarters to
one and one-half pounds, delivered
dead, with feathers on, and selling at
81 per pair"-St. Louis Republic.

DISEASES OF FOWLS.
Treatment For the Various Ills That
Affect Poultry.

Affect Poultry.
For roup take tablespoonful of
clean lard, a half tablespoonful each
Of ginger cayenne pepper and mustard.
Mix well together and add -four till the
whole has the consistency Of dough.
Roll into slugs about the size Of the
top joint Of the little finger and put
one down the patients throat. Repeat
the dose in twelve or tWenty-four hours
If the case needs it.
For sweled head battle with a To-
ton made Of one part spirits Of turpen-
tine to six parts glycerin. If this does
not cure in three days, better kill and
bury the bird. Separate the sick from
the we'll birds.
The chief causes of liver disease are
Indigestion, impure air, dark and damp
quarters, want of agreeable exercise
unwholesome food, such as musty
grain, putrid meat, decomposed vege-
table matter, rich and highly concen-
trated food, overcrowding, picking up
food in dirty houses or runs to which
excrement is attached. Too heavy corn
feeding is also prime cause.
An ordinary family liver pill is excel
lent when the trouble is caused by in
digestion. When the liver is disorder
ed from other causes, give small doses
Of calomel every day for a week, fol-
lowed by a course Of nux vomica in
small doses. The food should be light
and nutritious.
There are several causes for leg
weakness in chicks-viz, too great heat
in the brooder, too heavy feeding of
meat and too much fat forming food
An excess Of meat, cornmeal and
starchy foods, like potatoes, give too
much weight for the muscular strength
Of the legs. Keep shallow pan of
water in the brooder This will make
the air more moist. Feed charcoal and
place piece Of rusty iron in the drink
ing water.-Farm Journal.
