GOOD RATION FOR FATTENIMG
" Fowls Have Their Liberty and Are
Free From Lice Cracked Corn
Will Make Rapid Gains.

From the many fattening rations
and the articles on crate fattening,
pen fattening and examining, the
farmer might get the impression that
fattening is a different proposition.
Such, however, is not the case,
says the Farmer. Some Of the best
poultry we ever saw fattened was
fattened by simply giving them all
the cracked corn they would eat for
three weeks, while they we're on free
range of the farm. Usually farm
fowls are healthy, and, If they have
their liberty and are free from lice,
plenty Of cracked corn will make them
gain rapidly, and when dressed for
market they get plump and of a bright
red color.
Where 1t Is desired to fatten some
of the flock and not all of it, that
which Is not to be fattened can be al
lowed to run at liberty, and that to
be fattened can be put into yards, or
even kept In the houses. In that case
a different ration is needed. There
should be plenty of grit and charcoal
within reach, and green food should be
supplied every day. In the morning
a mash made of three parts cornmeal.
one part wheat bran and one part
high-grade beef scraps, mixed crum-
bly, with water or milk, should be
given. all they will eat up in Is min
utes, and no more. At noon some
green food and cracked corn may be
given, and at night they should have
all the cracked corn they will eat II
they are free from vermin they will
fatten rapidly under this treatment.
II they do not eat heartily, they
must be put out on the range again
until they recover their appetites.

Louis Braille, the inventor OF the
wonderful system, which has made the
blind to see," was born near Paris
in January, 1909. and lost his sight
through an accident at the age Of
three. He was admitted to the famous
institution Rationale des Jeunes Az
eugles," founded by Valentin Hauy
in 1884. and displayed such intelH-
gence that at seventeen he was elect
ed a professor Before he was twenty
he had set himself TO invent means
whereby the blind should be able not
only to read but to write, and the re-
suit OF years OF patient labor was
the beautiful system which bears his
name.

[By j. W. KELLAR. Copyright. tel4)
The broodfng period embraces that
portion Of chicks life from the time

most important and vital period, for
then is laid the foundation OF the fu-

artificial. In the natural brooding all

Then, given proper feed. the hen will

Artificial breeders have two parts

orooder select one that Is well built,
