The authors have devised hopper
for use in the dry feeding of poultry
which has been tested at the New
York Cornell station. II consists OF
a galvanized iron box. having several
compartments, with hinged cover,
and on the front openings through
which the feed can be reached by the
poultry. A curved false bottom sep
arates the upper or storage chamber
of the hopper from the trough in the
lower part and is arranged so that
feed falls in small quantities into the
trough. Our large illustration and the
following quotation from the bulletin
referred to explain the construction OF
this hopper.
The feed hopper which is used for
feeding dry meals, meat scraps or
grain is made of No. 26 galvanized
iron, is SO inches long, "a inches tall,

three compartments IL inches wide,

hopper described above. except that It
is open above the trough instead Of

the cost Of the hopper, which is made
OF galvanized iron, should not exceed

the appearance of the hopper and its
method OF construction. The rounded
back and the overhanging lip in front
prevent waste. The slanting top is
also noticeable, az well as the eyes
at the back. by which the hopper
may be attached TO the wall. The hop

OF bills relating to each of these topics
have been presented. There is a bill

providing for the further establish

other provides for the revocation OF
land sold under failure to pay certain

immigration under restrictions, and
one to prove the insular waterways.

Good Hoppers for Poultry Feeding

Whether the same system Of feeding
will prove as satisfactory with old
fowls of the laying varieties or with
young fowls of the general purpose or
meat varieties, we have not yet de-
termined by actual comparative test.
Nor has 1t been proved that the sys-

breeding fowls. This is n vital con

will decide whether or not the hopper
