There is no article that will aid digestion
so much as will good. hard. sharp grit
Llnseed meal and charcoal are the
agencies for purifying the blood; pure
blood is important in the manufacture of
eggs.
GREEN STUFFS NECESSARY.
We pass on to green stuff. The fowls
must have it in some way or other. the
entire year. Green clover leads. closely
followed by alfalfa. Gras is also close
competitor. Then we have the green veg
etable leaves, and the vegetables them
selves. The winter substitute for green
food is cut clover nay ana roots chopped
up to about the size Of whole corn.
Sprouted oats is used In nearly all the
large poultry farms-but In this care must
be taken that the oats are properly sprout-
ed, or the mess may turn sour, producing
! bad results.

The proper food for egg production is
that Of n heterogeneous order. In this group
wheat stands at the head. But the man
who would feed nothing hut wheat would
soon flavor his eggs with fumes especial

decayed eggs. heterogeneous foods must be
balanced with carhonaceous foods.
|. Wheat and corn, in mixture, is a better
egg grain ration than IS wheat alone.
Corn Is no egg food.
Egg farmers have learned the fact that
wet mash is more productive than a
dry mash. They have also learned that
every day the hen must have some animal
food and green stuff.
Green cut bone is the best form of ami
| NAL food that can be given provided It is
| judiciousy fed the day it is cut. An
ounce per head of stock, every other day
| is the proper allowance. If fed too heav-
| lily, green cut bone will produce worms in
stock The commercial beef scrap Is an
excellent substitute. Some poultrymen
keep it constantly within reach Of the
hens: others add about % to % per cent
daily, to the mash.
There is lime in the grains, but not suf'
| hcient to manufacture the egg shells
| fast enough in heavy egg production
Lime must, therefore, be included in the
bill of fare, and | know of no better form

can partake of it as required,

MINCED MUTTON.

The often maligned picked up dinner
is in reality friend of every woman who
does her own homework. Not only that,
but | believe the ability to get up a good
meal from the "left-overs" is one that
should merit the highest praise. There
are dozens of good dishes, and from the
number I select the following:
For instance, some day when you have
some cold mutton, slowly brown one
chopped onion in two tablespoons of but
ter; add one heaping tablespoon flour and
when brown, one cup Of stock and salt
and pepper to taste, together with one
quarter of teaspoon of nutmeg and rive
tablespoons of walnut catsup. WheI
smooth and simmering add one pint OF
the minced mutton and cook gently fol
10 minutes. Turn out on a platter ant
sprinkle with chopped parsley.

attendance OF any meeting yet held by
the society Nearly 500 people were pres
ent during the day and they represented
almost every county in the state, al
though the majority of them came from
Lamoille and Chittenden counties.
All kinds of vehicles were brought into
requisition as means of conveyance,
many coming by train, still more by autos
while horse vehicles and bicycles made
up the remainder. The day was ideal In
every way and the time vas most pleas
antly passed in a way that vas both
entertaining and instructive.
Music was furnished by the Westford
Cornet band. Mr.. Putnam led the visi-
tors on a tour of his orchards, explaining
! the numerous varieties of fruits, the in
sects from which trees have to be pro-
| tectsd, orchard diseases, culture. etc.
after which there was more music by
the band and people inspected the place
at their own leisure until noon.
Picnic lunch was served at noon, fol-
lowed by a delightful program by the
Cambridge Grange and the State officers
of the society. The program was as fol-
lows: Recitation, Mrs. Chase lecture

vironmsnt, too, calls for the proper loca-
ton of the house 1t must be so situated
that there will be no exposure to the
hens, and, above all, the location must
not be a damp one.
There will be no moisture showing it
self in a well-ventilated house. and in this
particular the cratching-shed house has
been a revelation. For both summer and
winter l find this plan the most correct,
and in no other style of house can there

A fowl will not suffer from the cold so

BEST FOOD TO PRODUCE EGGS.
Everything being congenial, the next
| important factor in egg production Is
| food. Food builds up the waste tissues,
it produces heat, fat. meat and eggs. We
can feed for just what We want. For
eggs material must be given that will

tened as Is one that is not laying. A
hen that has accumulated some fat is a
better egg producer than one thin In
