ALL ABOUT HENS


If there's any grass clip it into lit
tie bits of pieces with scissors.
Don't mix charcoal and grit with
your food The chickens know how
much they want Put food in one
corner, and water in the other cor
ner. They'll get so much more ex-
ercise.
One of the most dangerous things
is the spilling of water into alfalfa,
and letting it get dry and mouldy. If
they get brooder pneumonia all your
chicks will die.
Good Remedy For White Plague.
Rice boiled in sweet milk is
good remedy for the white plague.
Put it on the stove, and let it simmer
slowly. When it is thoroughly cook
ed dry it's good for the chickens.
Change of diet is often a goods
thing. Medicine is of no avail. l
am as sure that medicine is of no
avail as that l am that | live or that
Johnny cake is good. AS long as
you don't give them sloppy food
you're alright.
Lots of little chicks die from head
lice. Dip your little finger in olive
oil and rub it over the top of the
head of every little chick. If there's
any there, it'll kill them. Treat the
throat the same way.
Setting Hens Right.
Persian insect powder is good
| When you make a nest for a setting
| hen, make the box big enough. Have
it at least 6 or IS inches each way.
Cover the bottom with earth, and put
slaked lime over it. Take hay and
pack it down to make a good solid
nest. Don't make it too deep. Just
make it so deep that the eggs will
stay in.
Red mites come up at night and
poster the life out of a setting hen.
Air-slacked lime is pretty good pre-
ventitive.
First of all paint your nest-box in
side and out with one of the coal tar
products, as carbolic acid crosote
carbolic stain, etc, and you won't
be worried by mites.
If you keep your coops cleanly
the floors dry, and lice and mites out
the boxes you are not liable to gel
diseases among your hens.
Cure For Roup.
Roup is caused by bad ventilation

StocIser Asks Questions.
Following the lecture an oppor
tunity was given to ask questions
Rhamanthus Mortimer Stocker, edi
tor of the Wayne County Herald ask
: ed several. One of them was:
: How old do you keep hens?"
: In reply Prof. McGrew told of hav
ing selected 500 hens four years ag,
on his place. Last winter was thei
third winter. This is their fourtl

eggs to pay for their keep. Leg
