RIGHT FEED FOR BROOD sow

ton and distribution of the various
feeds and is relished by the animals.
The corn may be fed on the ear and
the alfalfa need not be cut, and the
rest of the ration should be given as
thick slop.
Brood sows, weighing from 800 to
$50 pounds, usually can be kept on
one of the above rations for about
$3.50 month.
If you live in a section where these
can be grown, sugar beets or giant

The sugar beets or mangels can be

SHOULD PROTECT THE CARS
Buffalo Judge Criticizes Railroads For
What He Considers Their
Lax Methods.

George Il. Judge, judge of the Jul
venile court in Buffalo, contributes 20
the American City. Magazine a paper
on the unprotected condition of rail
road yards as contributory cause of
juvenile delinquency. Thirty per cent
of the boys appearing in this court last
year were charged with offenses
against railroad property. They were
duly punished, but the judge wants to
know why the railroad should not be
punished also for allowing their yards
to remain open with practically free
access to a multitude of freight cars,
thus placing temptation in the way of
children. In Buffalo the railroads run
through the poorer part OF the city
There are 725 miles of railroad yard
tracks. They are generally full of
freight cars loaded with all sorts of
merchandise. Cars of coal, and such
things as fiat cars haul, are open. The
box cars are protected by strip of
tin an inch wide, which a child of
eight years can break.
All are guarded by few night
watchmen. One hundred thousand
Polish people live where these rail
road yards are. They are mostly poor
and all have large families q2 to 14).
The father is generally a laborer, max
ing two dollars day. Can you i'm
agine,' says the judge, what such
families would do to a car loaded with
shoes standing just outside it's back
yard in winter?" What they do do
constitutes 80 per cent of the cases in
the judges court. He demands that
the railroads remove this potent cause
of temptation which unprotected cars
of freight produce. From coal to mer-
chandise of all kinds the pilfering goes
on and breeds criminals The Judge
wants the railroads to fence their
yards and thus do their part to re-
move temptation which it is not diff
cult to feel is unjust to poor people
driven by hard necessity.

The grain should be given at least
an hour before the time for them to

given them to hunt. If thus fed in a

OF late dry feeding is becoming
quite popular, although it is not a
new idea in the poultry ranks. Fully
rs years ago the matter was agitated
and adopted by some poultrymen, but
as a general thing it was not favor
ably received.
The argument used today in favor
Of dry mash and whole grain diets
are: First, after fowls become used
to it, they will prefer the ground grain
dry to that which is either cooked or
steamed; second, it is a labor-saving
method; third, it keeps fowls in a
more healthy condition; and fourth,
better fertility to the eggs.
At first the fowls will not take very
kindly to the dry feed. AS meat scrap
is mixed with 1t, they will pick out all
such, then probably the corn meal, or
some may prefer the bran, but all of
1t is seldom consumed until the
fowls become accustomed to it.
Gradually they will eat more and
more Of it, finally cleaning up the
trough
Another benefit is that after eating
a few mouthfuls they will repair to
the drinking vessel and secure sew
eral swallows of water, then back
again to the trough and so on during
the entire meal.
1t is claimed that more water is
NnnCIIn1nH Nv Iryy 70
water enters largely into the compo-
sition of eggs, increased egg-produc-
tion should be the result.
The method is great labor saver
1t is possible to both feed and water
the stock in the same time it takes to
prepare the wet mash and feed it.
The writer prefers feeding the dry
mash in troughs instead of hoppers,
unless a hopper is used that will be
proof against rats and mice. Such a
hopper must be made of galvanized
iron, and should be made to close at
night and be opened in the morning.
If large enough to hold sufficient
material for several days feeding, still
more labor can be saved
There is also a decided advantage
In the system from a health stand
point. There is not so much danger of
overfat hens, and consequently there
will be fewer soft-shelled and de-
formed or illshaped eggs
There will be fewer cases of bowel
troubles and less trouble with indi-
gestion. Wet mash allowed to re-
main in troughs any length of time
during the hot weather will sour,
which is the cause Of many cases of
sickness.
For growing chicks it is recommend
ed. They eat few mouthfuls and
then take swallow of water and
scamper off for run. In few mo-
ments they return and repeat the
dose.
They never gorge themselves, and
when they feel little hungry a little
food helps them out.
At night an extra allowance of food
Is placed in small boxes in their
houses, so that the youngsters can
help themselves at break of day.
Nothing gives a chick worse set
back than pining for food
But we like only the mash to be
fed fowls in that way. The whole
grain should be strewn along some
light litter, like leaves or cut straw,
