upon the raising of poultry prontably,
has the following to say on the sub
ject: 1T has seemed in studying the
birds in the fall Of the year that the
change from the range to the laying
house, was an important one In the
life Of the bird, and that the results
during the subsequent winter with ref.
erence to egg production depended
much upon the way this transition
was made. It seemed advisable both
on general grounds and from observa-
ton OF the birds themselves to make
this change as gradual as possible.
With this Idea in mind the pulIets
have been brought into the houses
from the range much earlier during
the past few years than was the Gus.
tom beforehand the results have been
excellent. When the pullets are first
brought In 1t is not advisable to shut
them up entirely In ths houses at
once. On the contrary, our work is
planned in such way that there is
always a freshly-seeded yard full oil
green grass for the birds to run In
after they are brought into the house
until cold weather sets in. The fowls
are brought from free range into q
condition Of restricted range, but witt
better pasturage on the restricted
range than on the free range. The
yards are freshly seeded and have moi
been trampled down or burned Of
dried out by the sun, as is the gras.
on the open range from which thu
birds are taken. In this way the at
tempt is made to have the transition
from the range conditions to house
conditions as gradual as possible
After about two months Of restricted
range, the birds are finally shut up il
a curtain front house for the winter
The feed Of all adult birds, whethel
pullets or not, consists of two essen
tial parts: (a) The whole or cracked
grains scattered in the litter, and (b)
the mixture Of dry ground grains gen
orally known as dry mash. In add
tion to the grains and dry mash, oys
ter shell, dry cracked bone, grit anC
charcoal are kept in Slated troughs
and are accessible at all times. Plen
ty of clean water is furnished.
About five pounds Of clover hay Gu
into one-half inch lengths is fed dr.!

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 ker-
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 tine,
dry materials. Yet they help them
selves to 1t, a 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, 1t is an absolute necessity,
II best results are to be obtained. The
function Of green food is largely in
the nature of a digestive stimulant.
Green sprouted oats have been
widely used in recent years as a
green food for poultry and It is q
most excellent thing. The oats are
fed when they are from four to six
inches in height, and are fed at the
rHte OF 4 piece Of the matted oats and
attached green stalks about six BY
&h inches square for each 100 birds
per day.
