The first pen, the one that you
bend down, should be as tough and
springy a pen as you can find; the
others may be any old pens except
that the upright one must have hole
in it.
The board should be soft so that
you can stick the pens securely into
it-so please don't make use of the
dining or parlor table, or your school
desk! If you do so, you may be the
chief victim of your experiments in
gunnery. Also, look. out for your

times the pens fly as well as the bull

FEED FOR LAYING HENS.

An excellent feed for laying hens
IS sprouted oats or barley. Soak the
grain twenty-four hours in water,
pour off the water and put ina box
with holes in bottom for drainage.
Sprinkle with hot water night and
morning and when it begins to sprout
spread out to depth of about two
inches. This will be ready to feed
in about two weeks, when the "sod"
should be three or four incheS thick
and the green growth six to eight
inches high. Allow block of this
six or eight inches square to two
dozen hens.-Practical Farmer,
TREE-TRIMMING INFORMATION.
When removing branch from a
tree cut it close down at the shoulder
with a sharp saw, so as to leave no
stump. The adjoining cambium cells
will then be able to grow over the
wound and close it. In case the
limb is over two or three inches in
diameter, it should be cut off foot
or more FROM the base, to prevent it
from splitting or peeling off the bark;
then the stump should be cut off close
to the main trunk, leaving smooth
surface. AS soon as dry enough, all
large cuts should be painted. No
strict trees should be allowed to de-
velop branches within eight feet of
the ground, for the safety and con-
venience of pedestrians.-Wee
