THE SUMMER FEEDING OF
POULTRY
More Succulent Food and Less Fat Form
ing Food Is Best
A. r. HUNTER

| The summer feeding of poultry
should be different from cold weather
| feeding, and when the feeding is rightly
done our poultry may be decidedly prof
liable in summer 1t is too frequently
an Improbable part of the farm. The
most important change in the ration is
q lessening Of the fat-forming food,
which will effect a lowering of the ami
NAL heat and increase the bodily COM
fort, and we should increase the proper
ton of succulent Tor green food.
On most farms the hens are kept
closely confined in summer to prevent
raids upon the garden and in growing
crops. This confinement in henhouse
and yard cuts them off from needed
exercise and equally needed green feed.
To balance these defects there should be
widening of the grain ration and green
food should be literally supplied. There
should be an increase Of wheat bran and
middlings in the mash mixture and a
cutting down of the proportion of whole
Tor crackedl corn that is fed. In ex-
tremely hot weather no corn whatever
should be fed the whole grains fed be-
ing wheat, oats and little barley.
Provide Plenty of Shade.
The hens should be as cool as possible
in summer, and to that end the houses
should be very much open in front, so
they will be comfortably cool at night.
And there should be shady loafing places
in which the birds may pass the hotter
hours of the day. If there is no natural
shade, as of fruit trees, shed roof
six by eight feet in size, two feet high
at the back and three feet high in front,
the roof sloping TO the south, should be
put up for the birds to take refuge un.
der. A simple shelter of this type will
pay. for itself over and over again.
Abundant green food must be fed. This
may be vegetable tops or weeds from
garden, lawn mower clippings, etc. /
There is wide range OF choice, as al. |
most everything that is fresh and suceu-
lent will be relished by fowls that are
confined.
And abundant drink must be supplied. |
They should have all the fresh. clean
water they will drink and may also be
given all the skimmilk they will drink.
Milk is best fed sour, but should be al
ways sweet or always sour. Milk is |
good for fowls at all times and is espe- i
eially good in warm weather, but water
they must have. IL is best to have two
thinking pans or fountains, one for fresh
water and the other for milk, and they
must be kept clean. Then the birds can
rink from either, as they prefer.

Two Things That Prevent Matrimonial
Wrecks

In the July American Magazine man
who has had twenty-five years matri-
monial experience says that he and his
wife We're growing farther apart and
constantly quarreling. The family
would have been wrecked had it not
been for two things which he describes
as follows:
First was the baby, healthy, charm
ing child to whom we were intensely de-
voted, for months the baby was about
the only subject we could agree upon;
the other safeguard was our sense of
humor. have since thought that no
two persons should marry unless one or
the other has sense of humor. With
us the sense of humor usually came to
the rescue at the most trying times
One or the other of us would be struck
with the ludicrous feature of our quar-.
rel and laugh, and pretty soon we made

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
HAVING TIME
Eight Tons an Acre
JOHN ASHLEY

| IL is said the average crop OF hay pei
acre is one ton for the first moving, anc
| il the weather is favorable half a tor
for the second. The selling price fol
this amounts to about S27, the cost q
producing and harvesting IL.
In contrast to this, there is the case
Of man who had small village farm
devoted to garden, a bit OF lawn, an
acre of grass land and an acre reserved
for crops for his horse and COW. From
the grass land he averaged between
eight and ten tons of hay, and as his
methods of seeding and care were very
simple and easy to initiate it may be of
interest to know something of them IN
detail When the property was first
purchased the new owner started in to
improve it, going over the grass land
with double eutaway harrow twice the
first week in half laps and the second
time at right angles to the fist. He
continued to do this until August, when
the foul roots remaining were raked out
and burned. An eight-foot smoothing
harrow with leyeling board attached
was next used until the surface was
true. The land was then plowed with
twenty four inch cutaway pillow to a
depth OF six inches, the disk being set at
considerable angle. Then the surface
was again trued as before. Finally the
field was narrowed weekly until the
first of September.
Final Preparation.
The land being level, it was left bare
until spring and then was narrowed
again and sowed to oats to be cut for
hay. When this had been harvested the
field was gone over twice in half laps
with a double action harrow, the second
time at right angles to the first. The
second week it was plowed and har-
rowed and after that narrowed weekly
for four weeks, followed by one more
blowing. On Sept. /, fourteen quarts
each of timothy and recleaned redtop
were sown, and before narrowing in the
seed 600 pounds of the following mix
ture of commercial fertilizer were care
fully and evenly broadcasted: Nitrate
Of soda, so pounds; muriate OF potash,
240 pounds; bonemeal, 800 pounds. The
piece was then narrowed in four direc
tions with smoothing harrow. The
April the land was rolled and
$50 pounds of the following fertilizer |
spread: Bone, $50 pounds; potash, 100
nitrate of soda, $50 pounds. |
The result of this thorough preparation |
and care is evidenced in the splendid |
appearance OF the grass, although it has
been seeded six years Soon after the
irst crop had been cut, 200 pounds Of
.he spring fertilizer were broadcasted
md these two applications Of fertilizer
