length the stack or rick Is to be built.
These posts are strongly secured by
guy ropes or wire to posts set in the
ground. as shown in illustration, also
a wire connects the two posts. When
these are all drawn tight the posts
are rigid and will stand an even heav-
Ter load than it will be possible to
place on them.
At the top of each post pulley is
placed, and at the bottom of post,
where the wagon is to drive, a third
pulley is fastened Above the hay

The result is that the load is drawn
upward to nearly a level and then
runs along the rope until you trip or

land the load upon any portion of the

The method shown in Fig. 2 is more
simple and for a small stack works

FEED FOR lITfLE CHICKENS.

Almost any wholesome feed will do

chicken raiser know is my neighbours
wife. who raises her chicks with prae-
tieally no losses and feed nothing but
cornmeal dough until the chicks are
big enough 10 eat wheat and cracked
corn At the other extreme some sue
cessful poultrymen must have special
feedstuffs and grain mixture that
carries about every known seed that
chicks will eat before they feel that
they have deserve dsueeess. All Of
which shows that it isn't the kind of
feed used at all. but the way it is fed,
that counts for most
Still a ration OF cornmeal dough Is
extreme. and While some are very sue,
ceasful with It. there are other feeds
that are safer. Bread soaked in milk
or rolled oats rubbed up with hard
boiled egg are better starters, ana
chick feed is certainly better than
whole wheat or cracked corn alone.
Dry feeding means feeding whole
grains (chick feed and dry mash, and
is a very good way if 1t is necessary
To save time, but the chicks are not
likely to grow as fast as with judi
cfous use of wet mash There is moth
ing dangerous about the wet mash if
it is not too wet and the surplus is
removed after the chicks are through.
Young chicks need four meals day
until four or five weeks old. After
that 1t is safe to give them selffeeders
and let them have all they will eat.

1t Is much less work when the hand
Separator is used, and the calves are
assured of a more uniform feed. The
calves are usually fed Immediately
after separating, while the milk is
still warm and sweet. This uniformity
of condition and freedom from outside

important, and the hand separator de.
serves much credit for making this
possible and practicable.
