BALANCED FEEDING FOR HENS
No One Grain Combines the Necessary
Proportions Of Ingredients
to Produce Eggs.
(By ". R. CELEBRITY


Balanced feeding is an attempt to
provide for all the wants Of fowls
bodies so as to enable them to yield
the best profits to their owners at a
minimum cost
No one grain, meal or vegetable by
itself combines the necessary proper
tons Of ingredients to produce eggs
in profitable quantities.
Scientific experiments have proved
that to keep alive an ordinary hen
weighing six pounds, two ounces Of
dry food per day is required, but these
two ounces are not enough to put on
flesh or to make eggs.
They are only enough to keep up
the wear and tear Of existence. More
food has to be supplied for egg making
and II this food is richly charged with
the component parts Of an egg the
greater and easier will be the produc.
ton.
The only chemical properties Of food
that we need trouble about are the
flesh and muscle-making principles
known as albumenoids and the heat
and fat-making principles known as
carbohydrates.
The ration that both science and ex.
periments have decreed to be the best
is AZ to parts Of fat or Matchmaking
foods to one part Of designating food
and the total amount Of food require.

Dy 2. VAN BENTHUYsENJ

(By 2. VAN BENTHUYsEN)
A young pigeon, unlike a young
chicken, cannot feed itself, but must
be fed by the old bird.
Very often squads do not leave the
nest until they are a month old and
ready for the market
Sometimes the old birds will favor
one Of their offspring and feed It con-
tinually, allowing the others to go
hungry much Of the time. It is not
unusual to see one large, plump bird
and a half-starved, puny one in the
same nest, both having been Matched
at the same time.
The male bird sits on the nest at
night and the female in the daytime
Some dealers say that this is the only
true test Of mating.
Vermin is a constant menace to
pigeons and must be always fought
Frequent withdrawing, absolute
cleanliness, and tobacco-stems placed
in the nests will generally keep the
birds reasonably clean.
Pigeons must have clean water for
bathing, once every day. It should
be given them early in the morning
The birds cannot live without 1t.
The bathing dishes should be emp
tied Immediately after the birds have
used It, as it quickly becomes foul and
should not be allowed to stand.
The pigeon that goes about with
dropping wings is a sick bird.
At the first sign Of sickness, the
bird should be taken out Of the pens
and placed by itself Unless it is very
valuable It should be killed at the
end of three days if it is not entirely
well.

mixed with about one-fourth their

casionally, and there will be little

Squads are pretty wen covered with
feathers when they are three weeks
old.
Before engaging in the pigeon bust
ness go and spend a week or two with
some successful pigeon breeder One
can learn more in this way than from
three months Of reading.
Nobody except a simpleton will buy
pigeons whose mating is not absolute
ly guaranteed. Even then one should
not buy except from a dealer with a
high reputation, because even If the
birds are guaranteed and they prove
to be minated much time win be lost
before they can be replaced.
The aim Of every pigeon dealer is to
produce the largest amount Of meat
in his bird. For this reason scrub
stock should never be used.
No artificial heat is required in
pigeon houses, but they must be alb
solutely tight as drafts are fatal.
Pigeons begin to lay two weeks aft
er mating They lay two eggs which
hatch in about eighteen days.
The old birds stop feeding the young
squads when the next pair hatch.
Each pair Of birds should be provid.
ed with two nests.
Pigeons cannot thrive unless they
have place in which to fly. Con.
fined in houses they will quickly con-
tract consumption and die. Even in
the coolest weather they should be
allowed to fly outdoors when they
please.
The breeding season is from March
to September, but extra good breed.

He died soon after. and after divid-

600 and gave the remaining 100000
to the widow and her children. The
widow, not satisfied with this amount,
complained to the rabbi (who always
appears in the role Of the widows
protector). The rabbi ordered the
brother to appear before him.

'He told me to give his widow as

HOlU TO Make and
Keep the Road Dru

Water, plus clay or ordinary earth.
when mixed, invariably forms mud.
On ordinary earth roads the rains
and melting snow furnish the water
and the passing traffic the mixing,
nd the result is muddy roads. Take
"dy the water or prevent it from
mixing with the clay or earth on the
road surface and little or no mud will
result. In other words, keep your
roads dry if you wish it to remain
hard, smooth and free from mud
Except in very sandy or arid reg
ions, good drainage is the cardinal
principle in the maintenance of earth
and gravel roads. Get the water away
from the road quickly and completely
as possible. Water naturally seeks
the lowest level You can not keep
the water from falling on the road,
but you can assist its natural inclina-
tion to get away to a lower level.
Keep the ruts filled and the road
crowned with a slope towards the
side bitches of from three-fOurth to
one inch to the foot. and the water
will not collect on the road to soak
in and be mixed to mud by passing
traffic. Keep the side bitches clean
and with frequent outlets to get the
water away from the road entirely.
DO not let the culverts clog up or
material accumulate in the bitches
and hold back pools of water to soak
into and soften the foundation of your
road. Water is an enemy that will
run away if you will give it a chance.
DO not neglect to give it every chance.
1t will pay and pay we'll
Like most other enemies, water is
not very destructive or dangerous I'M
til it collects in force. Therefore, get
the water away from your road at
every available opportunity and be-
fore it has time to collect in suf-
ficient volume to be dangerous to the
road, and do not invite certain dis
aster by making your culverts too

Make OWn Pictures
MOVING PICTURE MACHINES SOON
TO TAKE PLACE WITH THE
PHONOGRAPHS.

The motion picture camera and pro
jector are to have a place in the living
room beside the monograph When
a record of Tettrazini singing Lucia
is slipped into the machine for the
family's after-dinner concert, some one
of the sons and daughters will adjust
a reel of film showing the great soprano
in the opera and project it against the
wall. The family can have its opera
complete, then!
This seems to be more or less a
dream when one just reads over the
sentences in which it is stated. But
no less a person than Sigsmund Lu-
bin, head of the Lubin Film Company
is authority for the statement. Fur
Their than that, Mr.. Lubin has himself
invtented the machines and hopes
some day to find time to make plans
for their manufacture. At the present
he hasn't the time.
Mr.. Lubin, it must be remembered,
was in the business of making lenses
and spectacles and field glasses, etc,
before he was attracted to the motion
picture business. His establishment
in Philadelphia was one of the land
marks of the downtown section-a
small ship, with gilded figure outside
of it, proclaiming the trade.
1t is but natural, having made some
millions in the film business, that Mr.
Lubin should be enthusiastic over its
future. 1t is not usual. however, to
find a man who is making money from
film as it is now, inventing machines
