NOTING
A Serious Problem for the Hen Man
BY j. w. KELLER

n CllUuS ftUDltiu lOI the IltU NldI
By J. W. KELLER
Practical Breeder and Poultry Expert
Surprising in the hottest part of sum
mer, after months of hard work, you
had to make an entire new outfit OF
clothes for the coming winter. You
would find it a pretty big job, and SC
does the hen. Forced to lay eggs all
winter, set for three weeks in spring
and then burdened with family for
many weeks more, she no sooner seems
to deserve rest than she is called upon
to grow an entirely new coat of feathers
for the coming winter.
Even wild birds become listless, lose
their song and often their power of
fight during melting and it is even
harder on the domestic fowl which does
much heavier work. Ordinarily the first
full molt comes at about sixteen months
old, but chicks molt continually until
matured, and sometimes early spring
pullets mott in the fall
Good nourishing food with plenty of
greens may be given during this trying
period, and. providing the birds are not
overfat at the start, beef scraps and oil
meal are valuable if used in moderation,
In addition, most successful poultrymen
use a good poultry regulator or tonic,
which is quite generally agreed to be an
absolute necessity for fowls kept under
present artificial conditions.
Even if the weather be warm, consid-
cradle corn may be fed, provided the
birds have cool runs. The importance
of giving all the run or range possible
during the molt cannot be overestimat-
ed, 1t affords valuable opportunity for
exercise and obtaining aids to the gen.
eral health
There are a number of methods to
hasten a molt. One sure and humane
way is to pluck from the birds body
such feathers as appear desd and still
cling, but if these feathers do not come
away easily or appear fresh or bloody
this should not be done.
While the above is written about hens,
remember that to the males, after long,
hard breeding season, melting is just as
serious. Male birds mott more slowly
when kept with females, so they should
be separated from them during this
time, but they may be fed and treated
like the hens. Remember, the male is
one-half of your flock, so keep him
strong and vigorous While birds are
weakened during melting they are easy
prey for disease, so keep everything
clean and disinfeet literally.
Perhaps you now realize what an inn
portant and trying a thing a molt is.
Care expended now viii pay you big re-
turns later, for your birds are not loaf
ing, but working ON big job.

THE NEW MAN

Its do the work, get a substitute,

nouneed Foreman Perkins of the
Midland Electric Light Company.
1t was in the Office of the Midland
plant that he said it, and the man he
addressed, Robert Cole, looked dis
maIly out across acres on acres of
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-05-23


Besides himself and the boss, there
was only one other occupant of the
little office He was a stranger to
both of them, outside of the fact that
he was the new man sent from head
quarters that day. Young, bronzed,
athletic, he was a vigorous contrast
in physical health to the poor fellow
who now saw his life chances fading
away from him, with no position to
guarantee comfort for the dear ones
at home. The stranger had been
registered as Dale Tyler, Inesman. "
He glanced twice at Cole after he
had made his plea. He seemed study
ing the situation. There were lines
in his face that showed hard contact
with the world, and these did not in
dicate any deep sympathy. His ac-
customed cynical expression chang
ed, however, as some good impulse
stirred him. He arose, went over to
Cole, placed his hand on his shoulder
and said tersely:
You go home-I'Il take care of the
job"
At the words the foreman turned
sharply upon him.
why, you're not scheduled for
work until tomorrow" he said
THAT'S so?" retorted Dale Tyler
nonchantly. "An right, III do it any
way, and you can credit it to this man
here, who faces death if he goes out
in such bowling blizzard as this"
The speaker resented the express
sions of deep gratitude attempted by
Cole, and went over to where the
foreman had opened the order book.
He reached into corner, took up
repairing outfit, and swung it care
lessly over his shoulder.
Its the line between here and
Hampton" announced the foreman.
Its down somewhere, the trans

was ready TO deliver a general tariff
speech. with the consent OF the
republicans, the reading of the bill,
line by line. was begun. Tests Of
strength came upon the number Of
relatively unimportant issues ON
braced in duties upon chemicals and

solidiy upon each vote. Upon the
first vote, when Senator smoot op-
posed a reduction Of oxaiic acid
