STIMULATING FOOD FOR HENS.

We do not believe in feeding hens
with stimulating food sc as to make
them lay through the cold weather
during the dead of winter. If you have
not got a warm h%enhouse, where they
will lay on a good reproducing ra-
ton. we would not use these means TO
make the hens productive. AS a rule
the natural results of any stimulant
are bad. Even if you do get eggs dur
ing cod weather. ext spring when
your hens ought to be giving plenty
of egg and your neighbors are reap

hens in an exhausted condition. 1t

Give them warm quarters. good feed,
and the hen will look after the rest.

Curtails Opium Smokjno.

Japan's official control of the use of
opium in FOrmOsa is a success. Its
import into that island fell from S769.-

crease of S115 900. The price is fixed
by the government. and selling agents
