SHIPPING EGGS IN WINTER
Careful Packing Is Required to Avoid
Freezing During Intense Cold
Objection TO Wadlne.

Shipping eggs in winter require
careful packing. Eggs are liable to
become frozen in the crates when the
cold is intense. although the crates
may be made tight and the eggs in
closed in paper partitions. There is
no remedy for the drawback. and the
only safe plan is to keep the eggs un-
I'll the weather moderates. Sawdust
is sometimes used in the crates to fill
up the spaces and prevent the ingress
OF cool air. but 1t only adds to the
weight. II one has the time to bestow,
the eggs may be wrapped in waddlug,
and placed IN the paper partitions;
but the merchants who receive then
may object to the extra labor imposed
upon them OF removing the covering
from the eggs after arrival.

GARBAGE NOT GOOD FOR HENS
Anything Average Restaurant Cannot
Use Is Questionable Food for
Fowls or Swine.
CRY NJ. K. ROYER.l


A poultry book recommends that
those living near hotels should ar
range for the garbage, stating that in
II there is such variety of food that
1t will be of untold value to hens.
The fact is that anything the aver
age restaurant will refuse to tumble
up for their customers is questionable
food for either fowls or hogs.
In the summer this refuse, when re-
moved once a day. is unspeakably foul,
and the one who removes or handles it
needs the nose of scavenger.
Fermented and decaying refuse from
such places is dangerous, even to
handle. In this garbage" is often
found pickles, sour cabbage, tainted
meat and other stuffs-even including
coffee grounds-fit only for the ma.
nure pile.
We cannot be too careful about what
we feed out to stock. Fowls should
have perfectly sound fcod or they will
not enjoy perfectly sound health.

USING THE BALANCED RATION
Tests Conducted at Illinois Expert.
rent Station Show Increased
Production Of Butterfat.

A balanced ration Is "one in which
each OF the different food materials
or nutrients is present in just the
right proportion and amount to meet
the needs of the animals" says bul.
letin lee OF the Illinois agricultural
experiment station. Tests indicated
that cows fed balanced rations
yielded a pound of butterfat for each
II pounds OF total nutrients consumed,
while 81 pounds were consumed to a
pound OF butterfat when an unbalanced
ration was fed. The use of the bal
anced ration thus save four pounds OF
digestible nutrients for each pound OF
butterfat produced. or pound and a
quarter OF butterfat was produced by
the same number OF pounds OF digest
ible nutrients in balanced ration as
was required for a pound OF butterfat
when the unbalanced ration was fed.
Not only was the butterfat more
economically produced, but the COWS
given balanced ration finished the
test with better appetites and in much
better flesh and general physical con
dition than the others.

INDIGESTION IN DAIRY cows
Possibly tuberculosis Is Present, and
When Suspected Animal Should
Be Removed and Examined.

There are several things TO look for
in a case of chronic indigestion in a
COW. Possibly tuberculosis is present,
and II II is SUSPECTED the COW should
be removed from among the other ami
mails and be closely examined by an
expert veterinarian. Then there may
be some organic disease of the stom'
lach or there may be some foreign sub
stance in the second stomach. When
ia COW suffers from chronic indiges'
tion II is wise TO call a veterinarian
in order 10 ascertain how serious the
trouble is.

hanaIna Pictures.

A great deal OF the harmony of tt,
finished room depends on the way the
pictures are hung. Round frames and
square frames should not be all hung
together in one grand ensemble. 1t
is far more effective to hang the
square frames together in one group
and the oval in another. Then, too,
It will be found much better to place
a number of small pictures together
instead OF having them scattered, one
here. one there. This hanging prob.
lem must be studied carefully so that
the effect may be symmetrical and not
disturbing to the eye.

HENS DURING EARLY WINTER
Fowls on Range All Summer Should
Be Turned Out In Yards for Elk
ercise on Pleasant Days.

Consider that the birds which have
been on the range all summer will
miss the abundance of fresh air
during the first weeks of confinement,
and turn them out in the yards for
exercise every pleasant day, allowing
them to stay there as long as they
wish, and while they are out take the
opportunity to throw open all the
doors and windows, to obtain thor
ough ventilation and to purify the
house. II there is no scratching shed
arrange some plan whereby the house
can be made as light as possible
during the day. and especially so that
plenty OF sunlight will scatter itself
over the floor.
Above all things see that the floor
Is dry at all times, particularly If 1t
is an earthen floor. II 1t gets too
damp this will Invariably mean a bad
cold. Then see that the food consists
OF as great a variety as possible.
