The can is then inverted and made

FEED POULTRY BEEF SCRAPS
Hens Need Variety Of Food II They
Are 70 BE Kept In Healthy
Laying Condition.

Poultry need a variety of food If
they are to be kept in healthy laying
condition. There are too many hocks
OF poultry on our farms during the
winter that lack animal and green
food-in fact, are fed one-sided ra-
ton. Corn and oats are handy, and it
II something to eat for the hens.
But In order to produce eggs and be
profitable, hens must have some pro-
portion OF animal food. Beef scrap is
excellent IL it is properly prepared and
properly fed. This is q preparation
from scraps Of beef that are purified
and, through chemical process, are
preserved for future use. Care must
be taken that the scrap is pure and Of
good quality. If it is salty, musty,
lumpy, or has foul odor. it is not At
to feed; in fact, will cause indigestion
and bowel trouble when forced upon
the hens.
Where the hopper system of feeding
is followed, do not mix the beef scrap
with the grain, but supply it to the
fowls In an apartment by itself Fowls
should first become accustomed to it
by giving them little at time at
first. Overlooking OF this highly nu-
tritious food will cause bowel trouble,
says Wisconsin Farmer. After hens
have become accustomed to it, sup
ply can be kept before them at all
times, and that they will eat only
what they need. provided they are fed
literally of other foods and do not
partake of the scrap to satisfy their
hunger. II 1t is found that fowls are
eating too much of the beef scrap,
take 1t away altogether and only feed
it occasionally, giving it either in the
mash or feeding it dry, according to
the convenience of the poultry keeper.
Fowls should have only a small pro-
portion of-the beef scrapabout Is or
20 pounds to each 100 pounds or dry
grain, and even less than that will
give good results.
Farmers who are keeping a small
flock Of hens for winter eggs say
about fifty hens-will do well to buy
a couple of hundred pounds of beef
SCRAP. or any other prepared animal
food, and see what difference can
be made in the production Of eggs. A
little of scrap, together with variety
Of vegetables and what other animal
food that is usually obtainable on a
farm, will make eggs when the price
is high. Do not wait until the last
moment before laying in the proper
food for winter eggs.

slDE-HILL POULTRY HOUSE
Convenient Plan for Construction Of
DoubIe-story Affair With Scratch
Ing Pen Below.

A convenient way of building a
poultry house ON side hill is shown
in the drawing herewith. This is a
double-story affair, with scratching
room below. This room Is open to
the south and is partly below ground,
says the Orange Judd Farmer. Not
only does this afford q good scratching
room, but 1t aids in moderating the
temperature in the roosting room
above, which Is thus kept warm in
winter and cool In summer. II de-
sired, a part of this lower room may
be used as a dust bath, preferably with
glassed window In front to protect
1t from rain and snow and to keep the
dust well summed. Drinking water
should be kept on the second floor, SO
as to be away from the dust as much
as possible.
The upper floor is provided with
roosts, nests, a wire front, and can
vas screen, which may be opened or
closed at will. The rooets should be
all removable, and SO should the Drop
ping board and nests. A convenient
width for the house as whole is
about ten feet. In the drawing the
proportions are about 4 feet high for

Delightful southern Dishes.

A history Of some Of these old
southern dishes affording a glimpse
into old creole hospitality makes i'm
teresting reading. The following reci-
pes are few Of the many that make

The greatest difficulty in getting a
southern dish to taste natural Is the
fault Of the measurements. The old
cooks had no standard of measure
ment and in passing on recipe to
another the results were never very
uniform.

ole sausage and the incest and most
highly favored Of all sausages. Chop

Fine Eggs for Matching.

s. Too many people are afraid to pay
the price of fine stock for eggs for
Matching. Remember that the best
costs money and, while it is Just as
easy to raise thoroughbred fowls after
you get started, you must pay a good
price for good stun to start with. SO
many who are just starting in fancy
poultry keeping want to get fine birds
for too little money. Remember that
fine birds are in demand and the per-
SON who has them doesn't need to sell
them at give-away prices. Often those
who have not fine stock offer them as
fine at very low prices.
