POSTUM FOR MOTHERS

My husband has been unable to
drink coffee for several years. so we
were very glad to give Postum a trial
and when we understood that long
boiling would bring out the delicious
favour, we have been highly pleased
with it.

Our five-year-old boy has been
very delicate since birth and has de-
veloped slowly. He was white and
bloodless. I5began to give him Post
UNI freely and you would be surprised
at the change. When any person
remarks about the great improve
ment, we never fail to tell them that
ye attribute his gain In strength and
general health to the free use Of
Postum and this has led many friends
to use it for themselves and chill

FEATHER NATNNn Z

A reader of the Farmer is having
trouble with his fowls eating lfeath.
sers, he says IN part: Il have my
hens yarded to prevent them from
running to the corn pens, and, they
eagerly eat the feathers from each
ether" 1t is fact that whether the
fowls are intended for the show, for
table purposes or for egg production.
the habit Of feather eating is most
unpleasant practice to contend with.
AS a rule feather eating is most Of.
ten found in small confined space
with insufficient amount OF animal
food. A most satisfactory plan to
check the nuisance Of feather eating
is to place daily supply of broken
up bones in the runs. Give employ
ment to the hens by feeding the grain
in straw or automatic feeders. This
will direct their attention elsewhere
and occupy the greater part OF their
time in obtaining suficient feed to
keep them satisfied Liberate the
fowls each evening, say an hour be-
fore shutdown. At this time of day
they will be kept busy in finding a
variety of wild foods, and will not
range far enough to get to grain pens
or other places where they are not
wanted. By liberating the fowls they
pick up foods that satisfy them suf-
,ficfently to prevent them from having
any desire, for feather plucking -

A feed OF finely-chopped onions.

to keep broilers lively and healthy.
The. small breeds are not the best
for broilers, because of the tendency
TO put too much strength and growth
into feathers.
If egg shells are fed to the hens.
they should be broken into small
pieces SO that they will not resemble
an egg; otherwise the hens are apt
to contract the egg-eating habit.
Spread lime on all floors and

If the boys and girls are to be kept
on the farm there must be some in
ducemeut about it that inspires their
love and affection for the country and
shows them the advantages instead
OF the disadvantages. They should
be taught, submits the Agricultural
Epitomist, that 1T is not necessary
that they become lawyers or doctors
in order that they may use their
brains. They can find plenty OF use
for them on the farm and their prop
er application will not be without its
reward. The idea of trying to make
lawyers and doctors out of the young
people is all wrong and the sooner
we introduce system of education
into our district schools that will in
terest the young folks in agriculture
the better class of farmers we will
have. in the future.
The history of the modern daily

that the East Indian English uabobs
