DRY FEED FED TOO HEAVILY
Quite Important That Poultry Be Civ
en- Plenty Of Green Food Along
With Grains.
By r. q. WEATHERsToNr,

By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
While we do not advocate the use
OF wet mashes in poultry feeding, we
believe that too often dry feed Is fed
too heavily and too continuously to
produce the best results. in fact, there
is no doubt that If great deal of dry
grain Is fed for a considerable period
the birds often become seriously af-
fected.
Some of the symptoms of continued
dry feeding is weak neck and often
birds appear to be paralyzed, losing
the use Of their legs. They become
sleepy and seem to lack strength to
eat although their appetites continue
good.
Where dry feeding is adopted there
should be plenty Of succulent food to
go with It, If the food contains too
large proportion Of meat scraps with
no green vegetables the troubles
above described are pretty sure to
follow.
Dry feeding generally results first
In increased egg production, the birds
appear to be in fine health and 1t Is
only after this kini of feed has been
continued for long time that the
bad results appear.
1t is fact, therefore, that II birds
seem to thrive at first on dry feeding
1t Is not to be taken as indlsputable
evidence that they are thriving and
can do without green food. 1t is much
more important to supply the birds
plenty of green food along with dry
grains and meat scraps, than when
wet mashes are fed.

WHY SOWS EAT THEIR PIGS
Sure Indication That Animal Graves
for Some Kind Of Food She 10
Unable to Obtain.

Whenever a SOW shows a disposi-
ton to eat her pigs it is a sure sign
that she possesses craving for some
form of food she is unable to obtain.
II she cannot get the material that Is
needed to balance her system she nat
urally will devour her own offspring.
Once she gets taste of flesh in this
way a tremendous appetite for nitro
genous feed Is developed, she be-
comes cross. irritable and often dam
gerous.
hog is composed Of blood, water,
gristle, flesh and bone, all albuminous
or nitrogenous and tho SOW must have
food to supply all these elements in
her makeup or she cannot thrive.
Sows usually develop the pig-eating
habit when they are born. Very often
she will devour pig during the pains
of parturition because she may think
they are caused by her offspring.
When a sow eats her pigs the best
way is to fatten her and senG her to
market as quickly as possible for 1t
is habit not easily broken. But she
should at first be fed ration that
will produce growth in muscle and
flesh, and not too much fat. Later,
when she obtains her normal condi-
ton she can be fattened the same as
any other hog.
For winter feeding. alfalfa or clo-
yer hay, oats or corn and shorts in
equal portions by weight will prove
excellent. If the weather Is very cold
she may be given little more corn
and she should have plenty of exer-
else all the time.
In summer, Of course, che should
have tho run of a good pasture and
the corn ration should be greatly re-
duced. If fed in this way SOW will.
In the course Of one season, regain
her normal condition, but even then
the habit of pig-eating may remain
with her and we would not regard her
as safe breeder.

bat. What right had a man of his
age to go and marry a woman 20
years his junior? OF course she only
married him for his money. Every
body knows that except he. People
laugh at him behind his back Instead
of enjoying a quiet, peaceful home in
the declining years of his life, he is
compelled to keep open house and en-.
tertain people who are personally OBJ
noxious to him. simply because that
sort of life pleases his young wife"
who was she, anyway, before their
marriage?" Interrupted Annie.
"Oh, a nobody" he replied. "She
was very attractive looking, dressed
well and was clever enough to get in
Productions to good people. She man
aged to make herself popular in the
smart set and she needed money to
carry out her social ambitions. Dad
wealthy widower-came along and she
caught him in her net, that's ALI"
Annie listened with interest. She
was human enough to feel a certain
sense of satisfaction in hearing that
this woman who treated her with such
contempt was herself something of an
intriguer.
How did your stepmother come to
know Robert Underworld" she asked
He was never in society,""
NO." replied Howard with a grin.
1T was my stepmother who gave him
the entree. You know she was once
engaged to him, but broke 1t off SO
she could marry dad. He felt very
sore over 1t at the time, but after
her marriage he was seemingly as
friendly with her as ever-to serve
his own ends, of course. 1t is simply
wonderful what influence he has with
her. He exercises over her the same
fascination that he did over me at
college. He has sort of hypnotized
her. l don't think it's a case of love
or anything like that, but he simply
holds her under his thumb and gets
her to do anything he wants. She
invites him to her house. introduces

Trimming Sheep's Feet.

A matter Of no little importance to
the sheep farmer is the trimming of
the Sleeps feet. In the course Of the
summer their feet grow long, turning
under when wet weather comes. In
these pockets filth accumulates, and
there foot rot starts. Any prevention
of foot rot Is worth looking after, and
so these rough feet must be straight
ened up before the long season of
winter housing comes.

Managing Market Ducks.

In managing ducks for market It
has been found highly desirable to
emphasize cleanliness, pure drinking
water, good ventilation and to provide
ample feed consisting of three parts
cornmeal, two Of bran and one of
meat meal or beef scrap. In two or
four weeks this ration and way of
managing has always proved satisfac-
,rv In fattening the birds.
