FEEDING DAMAGED GRAIN A
POOR PRACTICE.
ROY Fl. WAITE,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

There Is always a temptation when
mouldy or spoiled grain Is around TO
give it to the chickens 50 As not to
waste it. While often no i'll effecIs
follow this practice, still there is con
siderable danger attached to the prac
tice. The argument is often advanced
that chickens running around natural
ly at large, eat feed In whatever state
they find it, and still keep perfectly
healthy. This may be true, but under
these conditions the birds probably do
not get an especially large dose" on
any one particular kind OF spoiled
grain and their digestive system is
able to handle it.
Where one feels he simply must
feed damaged grain to poultry some
precautions should be taken. II might
be fumigated to kill the mould spores
or it could be heated up to a high
temperature on the kitchen stove
small quantities being thus treated as
used. Another method might be to
scald the grain with boiling water a
short time before feeding. The safest
method If 1t il ut all bad. Is to use ths
feed for fuel.

The next bull used was HugorOtus,

was much higher, making an increase

Increased the average production 1410
lbs of milk and 66 lbs. Of fat. The
average production of his daughters
was 1863 lbs. of milk and 287 lbs. of

The next bull was Missouri Rioter,
Bird, a SON Of Missouri Rioter. His
mother was the best COW in the herd.
His daughters produced $3.50 lbs. of
milk and 146 lbs. fat more than their
dams.
Minette's Pedro was used after Mis-
souri, Rioter, 3rd. He was an animal
of fine breeding with many high-class
animals in his pedigree. Ten of his
daughters were superior to their dams,
and ten were inferior. There was an
increase of s. lbs. Of milk and lbs.
of fat This bull was holding the aver
age of the herd.
Brown Bessie's Registrar was the
last bull used with daughters old
enough to test. The data regarding this
bull are too limited to draw conclu-
sions, but it is evident his daughters
are inferior. The daughters produced
1874 lbs. milk and rs lbs. fat less than
their dams.
The records show the great care that
should be used In selecting bull; and
the desirability of keeping the bull in
the herd until the production of his
daughters is known. Missouri Rioter
was sold before his daughters began
to produce, and valuable bull was lost
to the breed.

house is lastly painted or white
washed, the lawn well laid out, and
sufficiently large to admit of flowers
and shrubbery that she can easily care
for herself; that the barns and other
necessary out-buildings are far enough
away from the house to insure good
sanitation. Then if we add water,
lights, and heat, much has been done
TO better social conditions, since our
thoughts and feelings In great
measure are IN keeping with our sur

but open to them larger possibilities.
A piano, a Victrola or some other
musical instruments should not be
lacking in adding to the refinement
and pleasures Of home life for the
