Many Valuable Suggestions

available for egg production. the
proper leeds should be fed in sutii
cient quantities. to induce this pro-
duction.
In supplying feed to fowls thele
are three kinds OF constituents which
we'll fixed proportions ii the desired
| results are TO be obtained most eco
inomically. These constituents are
mineral, nitrogenous. and carbona-
ceous, all OF which are contained IN
corn, wheat. oats and barley, Blu not
in the right proportions to give the
greatest egg yield. In addition to
this some animal and green iced

in feeding poultry a valuable les
son may be learned from nature. ii

the farm is an easy matter. rows
which are at liberty to roam find an
/ abundance OF green and animal iced

! nishes a perfect ration for laying
! hens. In addition to this they get
! plenty OF exercise and fresh air. 50
! far as lies within his power. then, the
| feeder should aim to make the winter
conditions springlike,"
! There are two systems OF teedlng,
the "dry-feed" and mash" methods.
| The first mentioned is the preferable
| one, in that it not only saves labor,
| but at the same. time keeps the poul-
try in better physical condition.
. Mash-ieed, ii given in a sloppy or
! soured condition. is very liable to be
followed by more or less bowel lrri-
tation. and attendant ill-health. Bell
considers wheat generally the safest
grain to be fed alone. but says that
it requires to be supplemented by
some meat iced or skinned milk to
increase the proportion of proteld,
Corn furnishes too much food, and
Excepting for fattening purposes is
not as good as wheat. During the
winter months those fowls which
range freely will pick up sufficient
animal. food in the shape OF bugs and
insects. During the winter months.
this sort OF food must be Supplied III

EGGS

The following is a continuation OF
a series OF articles which are being
published in the Gardnerville Rec
ord Courier, and re-published week
ly in the Appeal:
Having considered the grading OF
eggs, the subject OF producing now
III TO our attention. The sort OF
eggs 10 raise is based upon the de
mand. II shipments Were to be
made TO New York it would be uec-
e,sary that every egg be white
while If made to Boston the demand
would be for brown sort, The
Coast market demands a white egg.
as does the intermounta1n region.
and that the producer may receive
the best price for this product he
must. per force, possess hens which
lay only good-sized. white eggs. An
other matter OF interest to the ranch
err who would raise eggs for the mar
ket is to have hens which are good
layers, but poor s%itters. or breeders.
The egg breeds include the small
or medium-sized fowls which are
ducers OF white-shelled eggs. usu-
ally non-sitters or at best poor sit
tiers. and rather poor mothers. The
various variety OF Iegh0rns and
Manorcas are good representatives
OF this class. Because they are poor
|sitters some other breed. or a least
a lew other fowls. should be kept i
natural methods OF incubation are to
be employed. On ccoun OF their
early maturity it is not uncommon
for individuals 10 begin laying at the
age OF four and one-half months. ~
mentioned above. these breeds are
very active and do not fatten as
readily under ordinary conditions as
the larger and less active breeds

Proper feeding has much to do
With profitable production of eggs.
Again quoting from the sa1ne autho :
ity as above. we note the following
"For the largest profit a good pro
| portion of the eggs should be secur-
ed during the winter. II two eggs
ner week can be obtained from each
hen a good profit will be made. while
ii the product is increased only ono
egg per week in the winter. this ont
egg Will pay for all the feed the hen
eats. To obtain this greater pro-
duction. not only should the fowls
be young and OF a good laying breed
but the feeder should have a good
knowledge of the proper iced aud is
preparation.
"The nutrinent in the feed of lay
ing hens serves a two-fold purpose
TO repair waste and furnish heat to
the body and to supply the egg-mak-
ing materials. As only the surplus
