Sprout; c, Oats Well Sprouted.

When the wheat, oats, and cracked
corn are given, the birds are always
ready and anxious for them, and they
scratch in the litter for the last kerr
mel before going to the trough where
an abundance of feed is In store. The
hens like the broken and whole grains
better than the mixture of the fine,
dry materials. Yet they help them
selves to it, mouthful or two at a
time, whenever they seem to need it.
There is a general unanimity of
opinion among poultrymen that the
fowls do best when some form OF
green or succulent food is given them
during the winter months.
In fact, it is an absolute necessity,
IL best results are to be obtained. The
function OF green food is largely in
the nature of digestive stimulant
Green sprouted oats have been
widely used in recent years as a
green food for poultry and it is a
most excellent thing. The oats are
fed when they are from four to six
inches in height, and are fed at the
rate of piece Of the matted oats and
attached green stalks about six by
eight inches square for each 100 birds
per day.

There are hundreds OF makers OF
switches and wigs and dozens OF manu-
Eacturers OF shampoos There they use
no makeshifts but preparations made for
shampoolng only and inquiry as to the
most popular shampoo brings the reply
that canthrox is best. A perfect, eco
nomical, invigorating shampoo can be
cheaply made at home by dissolving a
teaspoonful oanthrox, which every good
druggist has. In a cup hot water This
mixture cleanses thoroughly, and gives
to the scalp the vlgor that insures hair
beauty. Canthrox shampoos make the
head feel good and are very beneficial
where hair is faded and brittle. Their
use will greatly enrich the color OF the
hair and give 10 It a beautiful gloss and
