Fire

On Friday of last week the house of
James Duncan in the town of Grove
together with most of the contents,
were br:rned. The fire occurred at 5
o'clock III the afternoon when a strong
wind was blowing, and when first dis
covered the flames were bursting
through the roof. Most of the furni-
ture on the ground floor and the con-
tents of the cellar were saved, but
nothing could be removed from the
upper part of the house. Fortunately
the wind was blowing in the opposite
direction from the granary and sta
bles, or they too would have been de-
voured by the flames. We are really
sorry to hear of this misfortune to
our friend Duncan. He is an honest,
hard working man, and deserves. bet
ter luck.

PROPER FEED FOR CHICKENS
Successful Pouitryman Evolves .
Scheme to Allow His Hens to
Balance Their Own Rations.

One Of the most successful farmer
poultrymen in the country says that
he allows his laying hens to balance
their own rations. That is, he fur
nishes them with the different kinds
of grains. cut bone. grit and animal
food in the proper quantities. each
separated from the othef, and permits
them to eat as they will In this way,
1t is claimed, each fowls instinct will
teach 1t to eat of the grain that its
system demands.
There may be good objections to
this plan, but it is advocated here as
= compromise for those who are not
inclined to go to the trouble Of bal
ancing the rations for the hens. The
main point in this method is not to
give the hens. in the several ingre
.dients composing the rations, more, in
all. than they will likely eat clean.
The plan is well worth trying. for it
can do no harm il care is taken not to
permit the birds to overfeed.
