PROVISION
FOR INDIAN
PAYMENTS

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE general
Indian appropriation bin reported 70

gides payment Of siOO per capita %

among Indians; 100000 to attorneys
TO protect Indian minor estates.
Although the house struck out the
provision on a point Of order, there
was not a murmur Of dissent in the
senate Indian affairs committee when
Senators Owen and Gore jointly urged
the insertion Of the regular appropria.
tion OF 100000 for the maintenance
OF the schools in the eastern section
OF the state Both senators pointed
out that the tax decision OF last spring
made it necessary that the government
should come to the assistance Of the

lands in that section that it was i'm
possible for county and municipal gov
ernmenta TO maintain adequate edu
cational facilities without boosting the
tax rate to point far beyond what
the people could stand
1t is not believed that the house
win raise further objection to the item
as the federal government is largely
responsible for the tax situation which
reigns in the eastern side.

to believe thar the house had acted

GUINEA FOWL is
MOST DELICIOUS
Cross Of Pearl and White viii
Produce Carcass ReSem-
bling English Grouse.
CBy MICHAEL X. BoYERJ

The Guinea hen is good layer but
on account of the wild, gamey favor,
the eggs have never had an extensive
sale for table use. However, by turn
ing the eggs into broilers or roasters
a considerable profit will be derived,
The flesh is the nearest substitute we
have for the wild game.
The Guinea is of rowing disposi-
ton, and one of the best known de-
stroyers of insects.
The laying season starts in early
April and continues until October, the
hen laying as many as 100 eggs in a
season. In the early part Of the sea-
son 1t Is not advisable to let the
Guinea hen hatch a brood, as she Is
of too restless nature, and will not
give her young the proper attention.
But after the first Of July, on account
of the warm weather she will be
more quiet, and can be safely entrust-
ed with a brood.
It requires four weeks to hatch out
Guineas. The hen always hides her
nest, and that, too, in some very OBJ
scure place. AS 1t comes of the nest
it gives a shrill cry, and in that way
the hiding place can be detected. All
the hens of flock are apt to lay in
the same nest, and in taking away
the eggs they should not be touched
with the hands, for II the hen discov.
ers that the nest has been touched
she will desert it and hunt another
place, But if the eggs are removed
with a stick she will not leave the
nest, even though the eggs are taken
out nearly every day.
1t is claimed that cross Of the
Pearl and White Guineas,will produce
a carcass closely resembling that Of
the English grouse. If rightly cooked
the meat of even an old bird will be
tender and delicious, while that of the
young bird is unsurpassed as broil

ing and two o'clock in the afternoon
Until well feathered, the young
Guineas are delicate and tender. 1t
is not advisable to hatch before June.
The Guinea cock bird cares as much
for the young as does the hen, guard
ing them during the day and hover
ing them at night.
The male bird is larger than the fe,
male, is more aggressive, and has a
different call. The hen makes a
noise sounding like Come back,
come back" while the male gives
Tick, &ck!" The cry of the Guinea
is one Of warning to the rest of the
poultry, and they at once hide until
the alarm ceases.
Guineas do not scratch like other
fowls, and therefore are safe to have
in the garden They should be given
their freedom, as they do not thriv,
in confinement.

From the early part OF August until
the end Of October the year-old stock
is going through a period Of prepare
ton for the coming winter by getting
rid of the worn and old covering and
acquiring a beautiful new one. A
slight mott is also experienced by
some young pullets that have been
Matched very early in the year. The
only time we have ever had chance
to observe this, however, was In the
case OF six Plymouth Rock pullets
that we're Matched in February. These
began to lay In the latter part of Au-
gust, and while they went through a
slight molt in the last part Of DC
tober, this mott was 80 gradual that
It did not seem to affect the egg yield
TO any noticeable extent. Other ex-
periences that we have heard Of diner
from this and the above is probably
the exception rather than the rule
Generally speaking, 1t appears that
pullets Matched earlier than the first
part of March will go through the mott
in October and November and may
not resume laying until late in Jan
uary. Therefore, 1t would seem that
old hens or April and early May
Matched pullets are the most desired
for early winter laying and for breed
ing purposes.
Regarding the heavy mott which
happens after the pullet year, several
tests have been made from time to
time to see II this mott could be
forced" 80 that the hens would re-
sumo laying at least In November. In
forcing the molt, the general plan Is
to starve the flock for a period of
from four to six weeks and then feed
heavily during the remainder Of the
period. 1t has generally been found,
however, that the fowls will molt al
most as quickly under normal condi.
lions as they will II forced.
1t is not generally known that the
time for fowl to complete its mott
extends from about 80 days Tin the
pullet year, to over 100 days flor the
older birds). Therefore, If yearling
begins Noting in the middle of All,
gust she will not have her full plum
age until about the middle Of Novem
Der. This, however, is the earliest
date for the mott to commence and in

We have reached the time when the
tariff has got to come down. The
beneficiaries might as well make up
their minds to that. Nobody is go
ing to rob them as they have been
robbing the people for years. But they
are no longer to be the sole judges

Lawrence democrat. (Lawrenceburg, Tenn.) 1884-1925, 1913-09-24

some cases the hens do not begin till
the last part OF October or early in
November. When such a late molt
takes place the time for the complete
mott is generally not much more than
two months.
Since 1t has practically been proven
that forcing Of the mott ia not effect
i've, except In a few individual cases,
It would seem that the only thing to
do in this period is to take as good
care as is possible with the flock so
that the fowls may finish their mott
in the best health. II will be under
stood by anyone that the shedding Of
feathers and the building up Of the
new covering is a strain on any fowl
and while the owner Is getting al.
most no returns from his flock this is
the time when their feeding should
be most carefully watched The usual
habit is, however to neglect the flock
during this period simply because they
are not giving good results.
One of the best recommended mix
lures to be fed the flock during the
melting period is given below. This
does not vary much from the feed
given during the rest of the year ex
cept that cracked corn is used in
stead Of whole corn and not as much
corn is fed during the warmer months
as during winter.
Scratch mixture-Wheat 10 lbs, oats
10 lbs, cracked corn 16 lbs.
Hopper mixture-Corn meal lbs.
wheat bran lbs, wheat middlings
lbs, oil meal 1 h., alfalfa meal l Id.
meat scraps / ID.
This latter mixture was used by tbs
Cornell experimental station in test
along these lines.
Our general opinion is that more
thought should be given this question
of melting, and that careful attention
should be given focks at this time
The days when 30 eggs per year pc

have passed and 1t is remembers
that we now throw out the hen witt

Look After the Fences.

Don't forget to fix the fences. A
trip around the pasture and field
fences now and then will often save
trouble, strength and the time of
having to drive the cattle back into
the pasture. Animals are almost hui
man when it comes to going where
some one does not want them. Re
move the suggestion, therefore, by
not allowing any says in the wire or
any loose or decayed posts in the line.
A well-kept fence is an indication Of
a good farmer.
