The commissioners to locate the college commended their selection of site in the following words:
 "The secluded position of the col lege seems in no small degree to sanc- ton the hope that the enticements to dissipation and idleness, which are too frequently observed to assemble them- selves in the vicinity of institutions of this kind, will not dare to exhibit themselves here.''

SKIM MILK FOR LAYERS.
Tests Which Indicate That It Greatly
Increases Egg Production.

Tests Which Indicate That 1t Greatly
increases Egg Production.
The department of agriculture has
received report from the West Vir-
ginia experiment station of test
made to determine the value Of skim
milk as against water for wetting a
feed mash, says American Poultry
Journal.
In the first test, which covered 122
days, twenty-five hens fed skim milk
laid l244 eggs as compared with 996
eggs laid by the twenty-five hens fed
mash wet with water.
In the first period of the second test
sixty hens fed the skim milk ration
laid S62 eggs in thirty-seven days as
compared with 632 eggs laid by sim
liar lot fed no skim milk. In the sec
ond period the rations were reversed.
The chickens fed skim milk laid 1920
eggs In tifty-six days as compared with
9TS in the case of the lot fed no skim
milk. In both experiments more eggs
were produced when skim milk was
for water for moistening
the mash.
Under the conditions prevailing in
these experiments and with eggs sell
ing for 20 or 25 cents per dozen the
skim milk used for moistening the
mash had a feeding value of from IL
to 2 cents per quart. In these trials
902 quarts of skim milk were fed, re
,ulting In an increase in the egg pro
luctiOn of 702 eggs.

Chicken Chatter.

Increase the profits by decreasing the
number Of old hens.
Well managed poultry is preferable
to farm crops in that poultry will pro-
duce an income at all times of the
year.
Do not despise well bred poultry No
territory has ever been noted for Its
poultry products unless well bred
fowls were the rule.
Get rid of some of the many ROSTERS
that are now worrying the hens to no
good purpose. They are deadheads
and eat up the profit of the flock.
By raising standard bred poultry one
will be able to sell stock and eggs for
breeding purposes and get much better
prices than when selling eggs and
fowls for food only.
Hunt up private customers and agree
to sell them strictly fresh eggs; then
do 1t. A good price should be secured,
and the payment will be made in cash
instead of groceries.
