The old butternut a very rich and
fragrant nut OF the olden time, has al
most disappeared. Very few people of
the present generation have ever tast-

yet it is precious nut, full of good

of cracked walnuts, in the long win

that has never been surpassed. The
hickory nuts, especially the good old
shellbarks, figured prominently in
those nutty days, and the chestnuts,
too, including the hazel nuts and
beech nuts; but they are all growing
scarcer, and have sadly strayed away
from the human heart.

laying hens is equal parts Of cracked
corn, wheat and oats, which should
be scattered In the litter. Bran or
middlings and beef scraps should be
kept in receptacles to which the fowls
have access at all times.
Plenty Of exercise increases the egg
yield. Provide four or five feet of
good, clean litter In which to scatter
the grain.
Cabbages. mangels, potatoes, ETC.,
make excellent green feed.
When wet mashes are fed, be sure
they are crumbly and not sticky.
For the fret three days chicks may
be fed mixture of equal parts hard
boiled eggs and stale bread, or stale
bread soaked in milk. When bread
and milk are used, care should be
exercised to squeeze all milk out OF the
bread. From the third or fourth day
until the chicks can eat wheat and
cracked corn, commercial chick feed
is good ration.
Plenty Of pure, fresh water, grit,

clean in o. few minutes. except at
night, when they should receive all
