ANY Season For Hatchinr.

IL you use incubators and brooders
you can commence Matching and rails
Ing chicks at any season, early or late.
II you have the eggs with which to do
business. If you confine yourself to
the use OF hens, you must wait her
convenience as to time of Matching
and perhaps have to market or eat
your early eggs. Eggs during the
winter season command high prices.
and perhaps pay better by selling
them than taking chances on raising
early chicks, whatever price you may
get for them. One thing is certain.
you do get a paying price for your
eggs, but you have an uncertain pron-
osition in raising a paying lot of
early chicks.-Farmers' Home Jour-

coarse Food,

There is no reason why hens should
be fed almost exclusively on concen-
trated food any more than the other
stock on the farm should. says Mirror
and Farmer. Hens should be fed as
cows, on varied diet, and largely
upon bulky foods. Hay, grain, en-
silage, cooked roots and also ground
meat and bone all are important in
the food OF the flock. Concentrated
food is expensive and is also Injurious
TO the fowls If they are fed too largely
upon 1t. COW that is fed exclusively
on grain will not thrive and give the
same amount of milk as ono that has
peen fed on grain with all the above
mentioned foods and in good propor-
tion. Green food, and that is the
most bulky of any. is what the fowls
need as we'll as the cows. Hens will
eat grass In summer and will also
consume a large quantity of IL in
winter provided It is chopped fine
for them. 1t is also good IL steeped
In a little warm water and mixed
with bran. or some other soft food.
Hens on the farms, where they have
access to the fields. should not be fed
more than once a day at the most.
for they will secure a quantity of
available material that is much bet
ter for them than the food from the
granary. 1t pays to SOW rye In the
fall and oats in the spring, for the
hens will derive great benefits from
such foods and 1t will also be
cheap investment for the farmer.
The gizzard can do its best work
when the hens have variety of food
and better digestion results. and

The Hen That s!wims.

When we lived in Jeffries, Wis. we
had a peculiar Plymouth Rock hen.
She had very funny eyes and We call
ed her "Cross-eye."
One rainy day the little pond near
our house was pretty well filed up
with water, which covered the soaked
legs and left the floating ones quite
far apart.
l was very much surprised when l
saw the hen wade out into the water
and swim to log which was floating
She had no difficulty in getting to
shore or out on any log
She had very small wings and a
short tail, which made it very hard for
her to fly, and wherever she couldn't
fly or wade from place TO place in
the pond she would swim.
She was not a thoroughbred, al
though she was marked like Barred
Plymouth Rock. She was an excel
lent lay er and every now and then
she would lay large eggs with two
yolks.-June P. Culver.
