CARING FOR
NOTING HENS
Require Large Amount of Feed
Containing Nitrogen, Such
as OIL Meal and
Protein Feeds.
(By J. BAILEY BRUCE)

Most people believe that IL they
can force their hens to mott early they
will lay more eggs during the season,
but this is not true. Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters.
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments, but the facts are
net generally known.
Melting hens require large amount
of feed containing nitrogen such as
oil meal, meat and other feeds rich
in protein. Melting can be forced by
cutting down the feed, of hens as it
has been shown by experiments that
scantily fed hens begin melting ear
lier than those ON full feed, but the
former do not finish molting much
earlier.
Starved hens mott more uniformly
than others and this is particularly
noticeable In hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station it was
found that on basis of 100 hens the
leu AOSh iO0uSSu CS6S " Tue value
OF 1927 more than by the starved
flock.
The total income from all the birds
was $27S for the starved flock and
$3.50 for the fed flock, a difference in
favor of natural melting for the year
of about $95.
A western poultryman of long ex-
perience gives his method Of controll-
ing melting as follows:
AS soon as the hens are through
laying he turns them out in alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran only, In addi-
ton. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration o. grains and meat, giving a
light feed in the morning and all they
win eat at noon and night. Under
this treatment they finish molting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. By October l
they are all in good laying condition
and make a profit through the faU
and winter.

MARvELS Of A FLYING BIRD
Vuitures Glide for Miles, Without
Slightest Deviation Of Course,
Without Wing Beat.

On the horizon in tropical coun-
tries there often appears a small
black point visible only to the prac-
teal eye. The point increases in size
as 1t approaches 1t is the sailing
bird par excellence, the vuiture. says
the Strand. returning to its hollow in
the rock a dozen miles away.
A glider, who sails magnificently
upon its outstretched wings, without
beat. without the slightest deviation
from its perfectly straight track. it
thus traverses the space from one
horizon to the other, again becomes
an tmperceptible point and disap-
pears, leaving the spectator marvel
ing at the simplicity with which ma
ture solves a problem of mechanics
which appeared impossible to man.
When one observes a sea eagle
perched upon a lofty cliff it may be
remarked that in order to quit it's
eyrie 1t waits until a gust of wind
arises, then it let's itself fall forward
with extended wings. gives g. beat OF
two as it turns, brings itself to face
the wind and thus mounts without a
wing beat hundreds of yards high.
A gliding bird so sets it's wings that
the air currents make an angle with
their plane The wind thus sustains
it's weight and gives it at the same
time a forward movement. If its
force Is stronger than is necessary 20
obtain these two effects 1t produces
a third effect-the bird mounts into
space without wing beat. If the air
suddenly becomes calm the bird
would fall, but the fall would be as
tonishingly slow
Professor Drzewiecki has calculated
that a gliding bird. at height of
1900 yards. at the moment when 1t
commences to descend with notion
less wings. can by setting them at the
most favorable angle touch the
ground at horizontal distance of
about Is miles. II the wind fall,
large birds can always, with a few
wing beats, attain an altitude where
they will find wind which will per-
NIT them to continue their journey
ION tie glide"
The gusts and eddies Of the wind
are of course great disturbers of
flight, and few birds attempt to
struggle with tempest. Even the
strongest fliers have not from this
point Of view so much boldness as
they generally get credit for. Thus

cause as soon as a storm threatens
it will often seek for refuge on a

tempest And If the albatross loves

the New York Sun.
The English alphabet has twenty

but Is represented by sign characters
Of which there are about fifty thous
and OF the great number of words
found in the English language only a
small proportion are used for the or
binary purposes of speech. and the
same is true of the characters used in
the Chinese language; but the mum
Der of Chinese characters commonly
employed Is still far greater than
could be put on any typewriter. So
this nation of 400.000000 people has
no typewriter in its own tongue.
But that doesn't mean that no type
writer's are sold In China. More and
more Chinese are learning other Ian
