A method which has given very sat
isfactory results for the American
breeds has been worked out by Prof
J. G. Graham OF the Massachusetts
Agricultural college. A dry mash Is
kept in .hoppers before the hens at
all times and a scratch feed is fed
night and morning. Tho dry mash is
composed of equal parts bran, wheat
middlings, corn meal. finely ground
oats. ground alfalfa and beef scraps,
and the scratch feed Of two parts
cracked corn. one part wheat and one
part oats, says the Farm and Home.
The scratch feed is varied, depend
ing somewhat upon the condition Of
the hens. II on examination they are
found too fat more oats and wheat
and less corn are fed. Sometimes we
feed three parts Of corn to two parts
OF wheat at night and oats In the
morning. 81! n Il 3etfts
/ AT certain seasons Of the year more
grain Is fed at night In the litter than
the hens win eat, so there will be some
left for them to work on early the
next morning. This as found to be. a
very satisfactory method. At times
oats are fed alone. for when the three
Are mixed together the wheat and
corn are picked up hrst and the hens
that eat the fastest get very little OF
the oats. ;3$ s.5s ss;. n

Ground Feeds Best.

Poultry will fatten faster on ground
and cooked feeds. Ground corn and
oats soaked in milk for twelve hours
makes an excellent ration. Other
things, such AZ unused, cooked vege-I
tables may be given, but they are not
necessary. Good grit should be given
once or twice week. Any grains
raised on the farm may be used, so
long as corn makes up at least half
Of the ration; but they should be
ground to get the quickest results.
AS rule, it doesn't pay to feed
matured poultry longer than three
weeks to fatten.

Hens that lay but few eggs are AMI
NAL weeds. II we breed from them
they are more than likely to yield
daughters that will be weeds also.
Farmers and small poultrymen who

The pullets that commence laying
