PROPER CARE FOR
THE LITTLE CHICK
Expert of Wisconsin Agricultural
College Tells How to Feed
the Youngsters.
Ry. PROF. ]. F. HALPIN, Wisconsin
Agricultural College

(By. PROF. ]. F. HALPIN. Wisconsin
Agricultural College)
For the first ten to fourteen days
we fed the chicks at the university
farm a little commercial chick feed,
which is thrown into a fairly deep
litter of hay chaff three or four times
a day.
In the middle of the forenoon and
the afternoon we feed little mash
made up of equal parts of coarse
ground corn, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings and rolled oats. Once a day
we mix a raw egg in with this mash.
one egg for about each 60 chicks.
AS they get older, we gradually in
crease the amount of raw egg, adding
enough water or, better still, milk to
keep the mash from being sticky and
soggy.
AS fast as they learn to eat it,
we mix more and more wheat and
cracked corn into the chick feed, SO
that by the time they are three weeks
Did they are eating cracked corn and
wheat entirely. From the start we
give access to dry mash made up at
first like the wet mash, except that
the rolled oats is omitted after the
second week

His feet will stand the hard road

Prepotency is a fixed characteristic
in all pure bred sires. The grade sire

Of
No one point in the horse is more
essential than we'll shaped hoofs and
sound h&ofs. The value of horse
depends to a large extent upon his
feet.
The fact that horse is imported
does not add one cent to his intrinsic
value for breeding purposes.
The horse that is afraid of the auto
mobile never can be taught to pass il
quietly by whipping.
A very young colt should have
plenty of sleep and rest.
A mules age cuts little figure in a
sale. No one seems to care how old
mule may be. However, he will
bring from $3.50 to 5000 when he is
full grown if he is big, smooth and

CULLING OUT THE
UNDESIRABLE HENS
All Fowls That Have Passed
Term of Usefulness Should
Be Sent to Market.

1t is always seasonable to Gull out
the undesirable birds from a flock
All hens that have passed their term
of usefulness should be marketed
While culling should be continued
throughout the entire year. the most
heroic work should be done in the
fall
What are called yearlings in poultry
are those which were hatched the year
before the pullets. They are nearer
two years old than one, and make ex'
cellent breeders. After breeding pick
out of this flock those that are con.
sidered Improbable.
What we call the two-year- -okss
are the ones that are going into their
second molt. Very often some excel.
lenth layers are found among these
and it pays to keep them, but at that
age the closer we Gull the better will
be our profits. This culling, however,
can only be successful by close watch.
ing.
No matter how valuable a hen may
be, if she proves to be feather pull
er or an egg eater, she, too, should be
sent with the culIs to market

PROPER MANNER OF
FEEDING THE CALF
Young Animal Should Be Taken
From Cow After Fourth Day
and Placed in Pen.

The calf may be left with the COW
for three or four days, or until the
milk is fit for use. The calf should
then be taken away and placed in a
separate stable, if 1t is possible, as
the COW will give less trouble if she
cannot see her calf.
By missing one feed the calf will
usually be hungry enough to start to
drink readily and will usually give
little trouble when it finds the bucket
contains milk. Four pounds of milk
per feed three times a day for the
first ten days will give the calf a
good start, when a small amount of
skim milk may be substituted for a
part of the whole milk, the amount
of the skim milk being increased, SO
that when, the calf is a month old
it is getting skim milk entirely. When
the calf is two weeks old the feeds
may be changed to two per day, with
the amount of milk increased as the
calf shows ability to handle it. After
three weeks the calf will begin to eat
little grain. An excellent grain mix
ture for calves is made of corn meal,
oats and wheat bran in equal parts,
with little linseed meal added
To grow calves well they should
have just what they will clean up
readily at each feed. Plenty of green
grass is good for them.
Calves should have milk until they
are five or six months old for best
lfc i1%
on coarse feeds and grain too young
they will be stunted as their diges
tive system is not developed enough
to handle such food exclusively at an
early age.

They commenced at his neck and
gradually spread to the top of his
head. The eruption was like ulcerat-

him awfully, especially at night, when
he would scratch and dig his head.
I had hard work to keep him from
scratching them. His hair fell out

D|Zzi, HEADACHY
Sick, 'CASCARETS'
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 1O-cent box.


Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath--always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out ali
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep-a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv

FATTENING SHEEP
IN A C0RNFIELD
BY Growing Rape and Pasturing
1t Intelligent Flock Owner
Can Make Money.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ.)

AS feeding proposition there is
none that affords better profits, con-
siderinG the amount of capital in
vested, than fattening sheep in the
corn field where rape has been sowed
at the last cultivation of corn. The
rape should be sowed at the last time
the corn is cultivated.
The sheep may be bought early and
pastured or fed earlier soiling crops
until the rape is ready for them to be
turned into the corn field. The Dwarf
Essex rape is the variety best adapted
for sheep pasture About five or six
pounds of seed will afford an excellent
stand If sowed broadcast after the
final cultivation of the corn field, pro-
viding that the moisture conditions
are favorable for an early termination
of the seed.
Practically no damage will result to
the corn crop, the sheep will con-
sumo large percentage of the lower
leaves and lodged stalks. Old breed
ing ewes that have passed their ma
ternity usefulness can always be
bought at prices which make them
profitable to turn into a rape and
corn field.
Yearling wethers may be fattened
in the same way. No grain foods will
be required. Rape alone will pro-
duce a sufficient increase in weight to
insure a good profit. By growing
rape in the corn field and pasturing
1t with sheep an intelligent flock
owner may greatly increase his in
come from his corn fields alone.
