KEEPING LAYING HENS BUSY
Giving Fowls Quantity of Green
Cut Bone Every Day.

Hens should be kept at work. They
should be fed twice day, morning
and night. Do not give them all they
want in the morning: rather let them
be little hungry during the day SO
they will work harder. At night give
them a full meal.
Great success has been attained in
feeding the laying hens by giving
them a quantity equal to one-half an
ounce of green cut bone per hen per
day. After the morning meal and at
once, if preferred, give a small quaa-
tity of millet seed, scattered tar ard
wide or in litter to make them scratch
and search for the small seeds to
which they are very partial.
In summer, for hens ON range, half
a pound of cut bone to 16 hens at
night is all the food they require
as they usually come up with full
crops.
Large hens, like Brahmas, eat more
than Leghorns, but the main point
is not to overfeed.
When feeding cut bone use the lean
meat adhering thereto, but remove
the fat whenever possible.

HAVE cow FREsHEa IN FALL
rites Do Not Bother Calf or Its
Mother at That Time of Year
Lactation Full and Free.

A great deal can be said in favor of
spring freshening of cows, but l pre-
fer that my cows come fresh in the
fall, says a writer in Farmers Mail
and Breeze. Early in October is a
time of year that suits me very well.
Ny cows always are in fine condition
then, because they have been on
summer pasture. The result is that
lactation is full and free at that time.
The flies do not bother at, chat time
of the year. 1t is worth a great deal
for the cow and calf not to be worried
by them. The calf that is born in Octo-
Der has time to get start before win
ter, and it is ready to make the best
possible use of pasture in the spring.
Cows that come fresh. in October
furnish their maximum yield of butter
fat at the time when the price is high
est, and when the cream is the easiest
to care for. Their slackened period
of milk flow comes in the summer
when butter fat is cheap, when other
work is pressing, and when flies make
the best of mixers produce less.

KEEPING cow RECORDS
Desirable to Keep Only Profitable
Animals.
With Well-Kept Accounts, Dairyman
Has Information Enabling Him to
Do Business in a Business
like Manner.
CBy C. II. FCKLES.)

1t is we'll known that there is vast
difference in the amount of milk off
ferent cows will produce One COW
may yield three Zines as much milk
and butter in ear as another on
third to a half IJore feed One COW
may be losing the dairyman as mucil
money as another in an adjoining stall
is making for him.,
Clearly, it is desirable to keep only
the profitable cows. To do this means
that systematic records must be kept.
No guesswork will do. No COW should
be retained in the herd unless her
milk and butterfat record shows she
is profitable. At the Missouri expert
ment station one Jersey COW pro-
duced three times as much milk and
butter per year for three years as
another COW that was her half sister.
The difference i i the cost of feed
eaten by the two cows was not great
and both received the same good care.
The Illinois experiment station
tested the herdss)f Is Illinois farmers
and found the same conditions to pre-
vail. The best ten cows averaged 289
pounds of butter in a year while the
poorest ten COWS averaged 109 pounds
cows in the ordinary herds to be un-
profitable. Many herds in other locali
ties have been Tasted with the same
results. 1t is the rule rather than the
execution for cows in the same herd tC

HINTS ON POULTRY FEEDING
Quantity and Quality of Food That
Would Suit One Fowl Might Do
Harm to Another.
By E. VAN BENTHuYsEN.,

(By E. VAN BENTHUYSEN)
There can be no set rules for feed
ing. Fowls, like human beings, vary
in appetite. The quantity and quality
of food that would keep one fowl in
good condition might overfatten an
other
We must approximate the amount.
The quality must be determined up
on according to the object in view
The plan adopted by the writer is to
give large spoonful of mash in the
morning for every two fowls in the
pen. The spoonful means about as
much as one would be able to pick up
in the hand.
At night, a full handful of mixed
grains for every fowl in the pen is
about all they can eat and that amount
will carry them over In comfort until
the next morning.
But when it is noticed that the fowls
do not readily clean up their allow
ance the next day the amount should
be cut down and continued so until
the appetite is fully, restored
Some fowls can not only exist but be
prolific on almost half what would be
needed for others. When this is no
ticed in pan it is advisable to cut
down their allowance to meet the de
mand
Sudden changes in the bill of fare
very often throw fowls off their appe
tite. We knew of little experience
in that line a short while ago A fel
low poultryman purchased a lot o
sweepings from the grain elevators
| These sweepings contained wheat
corn, ffaxseed, bran and middlings.
The fowls did not take kindly to tn,
mixture and the result was there wal
general decline in the egg crop. Jus
as soon as the old bill of fare was re
sumed the egg yield increased and il

The moral is, when your fowls ar
doing well on your present method o

SEEING THE LIGHT
Democrats Awake to Faults of
Administration.
Governor coIquitt's Arraignment Of
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan Shows the Temper of
the Country.

There has been a large amount OF
critical comment during the past
IL months upon the vagaries and IN
aptitudes of Democratic ideas as prac-
tically applied to the business of gov
ernment Such of these criticisms as
have emanated from Republican
sources, while they have always been
backed by citation of what is re-
garded as confrmatory evidence. and
though they have sometimes been
tinged with sarcasm, have almost
unexceptionally respected the person
ality of the president. There has GER
tainly never been any criticism from
a Republican source SO sweepingly
and uncompromisingly condemnatory
of the Wilson-Bryan administration as
the scathing arraignment by the Dem
ocratic governor of Texas.
In a talk for publication at Hous-
ton Governor Colquitt lays down these
several propositions as pertaining to
the presen. administrations: THE VIII
son administration has been the great
est failure in the history of the presi-
dency. The administrations
foreign policy has been imbecile
The administration repeal OF
the Panama canal tolls exemption Ian
in violation of the party's national
platform was another weak surrender

management of the Mexican affair has
been an egregious failure. - 4
am fully convinced the election OF
1916 will end the Democratic regime :
The Texas governor backs up every
one of these declarations with cita-
ton of the reasons upon which he
bases it.

ton gave the Democratic candidate
for the presidency plurality of over
$4,000. Colquitt, whoN ran for COVER

of 211,000. Texas apparently believes

What the COW owner needs to know
