Skim Milk for Poultry.

SKINNED milk makes an excellent
poultry feed, and may be used to
moisten a mixture of ground grains, or
the milk may be given to hens to
drink. When skinned milk is abun-
dant 1t may be heated until the curd
forms, and this curd fed to the flock.
On many farms the supply of meat
and milk Will be ample to meet the
needs Of the flock, while on Others, the
supply will be limited, and beef scraps
or fresh ground green bone should be
purchased. Green bone or other meat
may form about eight per cent. of the

that Mrs. McMahon was suffering from
