will break them into dust by their
continual scratching. l find oat straw
about as cheap in the long run, be-
cause 1t lasts quite while and furn-
ishes some feed if fed before thresh-
ing.
Some of my neighbors have tried
feeding buckwheat as q scratching
material and a feed combined. Buck
wheat is too fattening and should be
used only occasionally. Corn husks
make an excellent scratching material
Shredded or cut corn fodder does very
well If there is nothing else on hand.
do not like any form Of meadow
grass or swale for scratching ma
terial because it mats down too much
when cut and not enough Ehen not
cut.
