The Food for Poultry in Winter

Much time and money have beer

ecdeavor to make hens produce eggs
in cold Gather. 1t requires but little
experience with poultry to learn the
fact that under ordinary circumstan-
ces, hens cannot produce as many
eggs in winter as in summer. Sum
mer is the natural time for the laying
Of eggs, and in order-to increase win
ter production there must be reproduc-
ed for the fowls as nearly as posi-
bio the conditions that exist in sum
mer. Mrs. John ]. Layzell of Bran
don, VT, has evidently succeeded in
doing this with her flock. She says:

In the course of an article on the
governorship campaign the Rutland
Herald says:
The Fleetwood factor is interest
ing, and the pleasant-mannered ex-
secretary of state is entitled to felici-
tation on the score of his many
friendships and the number of his
well-wishers. If he carries out his pro-
gram of a direct appeal to the voter
by way of public speeches, he may
make a dent in the situation that
will be amply visible.
The Banner is inclined to believe
that the Herald and some others Of
the state papers are not taking Mr..
Fleetwood's candidacy as seriously as
the facts warrant. The editor Of the
Banner few days ago, out of curl
ousity mostly, interviewed fourteen
men who usually take an interest in
state politics as to their choice for
governor or the men seen ten live
in Bennington, two in Pownal, one in
SALISBURY and one in Manchester.
Six of the fourteen said they had no
choice, or had not made up their
mind. Seven of the other eight said
they would like to support o NJ Bar
Der of Bennington if he would be a
candidate, but with him eliminated
five of the eight preferred Fleetwood,
-, Nro,d ono Merrill and ono Cafac
The Gates man was for him anyway
regardless of Barber or anybody else.
This of course is only straw and a
very small one at that, but we think
there appears tendency especially
among the younger men, toward
Fleetwood. Anybody who figures
that Fleetwood has no strength is de-
ceiying himself
