White Mills.

MARCH 15th.-In continuation of my
communication on March 9th, on poul-
try raising, in which l stated that no
grain was proper exclusive food, let
me tell you what have found to be the
cheapest and best way to feed for eggs
in winter. Each morning, feed a mash
composed of four parts bran, two parts
middlings, and six parts cornmeal, with
the proper amountof meat-meal or beef
scrap, Unese prepared meats are sent
out with directions). Mix by taking
enough boiling water to make the re-
quired amount add teaspoonful of
salt for each thirty hens; then stir in the
bran first, afterwards the shorts and
meal. Let it stand till cool enough to
feed. Feed warm as the hens can eat it
without burning. Give about two-thirds
as much as the hens would eat if they
could get it which you can ascertain
by giving them one morning as much as
they will eat without leaving the feed
trough. Test them for amount few
mornings after beginning this feed. The
idea is to have them somewhat hungry
after eating the mash. Now scatter
wheat in litter for them 10 scratch out,
just enougho of wheat to keep them hunt
ing. At noon put little more wheat
in the litter, and thus keep them at
work all day. But be sure that your
hens do not get very hungry at any time;
it pays to feed literally. Then just be-
fore they are ready to go to roost, feed
whole corn on a clean, dry place, all
they will eat. Warm this corn well on
cold evenings. Cut green bone is good
feed, but not indispensable. 1t is queer
that nearly all the great results of feed

meal just as good and much cheaper
cost and labor both considered. The
"cracklings' left after pressing out lard
are the best meat-food l ever used ir
cold weather. They are great stimu
liant to egg production. Cut them fine
and feed warm noon or evening. Fowls
need some kind of animal food every
day to do their best. They are hal
carnivorous by nature and it pays vel
to pander to their natural desires. Greer
food is more essential than any othel
one kind. 1t is needed more in the earl,
, autumn than most poultrymen suppose
even WHEN fowls are still on the range
after hard frosts.
