Old and New Siiagc.

Farmer o. w. Fighter of Indiana re-
ports that he placed well matured corn
in a concrete silo fourteen years ago
and emptied the bottom of the silo last
July. says the American Cultivator.
Mr.. RICHTER says that the only differ
ence that he was able to detect be-
tween the fourteen and the one-year-
old silage was that the former was
slightly more acid than the latter. but
that the cattle ate the old and new ST.
iage alike. A very important fact in
connection with the silage keeping so
well is that the corn was ripe when
1t was placed In the silo. incidentally
the silo was homemade one. the base
of which was five feet below the sur
face of the ground line. Such con-
struction with mature corn well pack
ed would almost always preserve good
sllage for several years.

PROPER FOODS FOR HENS.

Layers Must Have Right Materials For
Production Of Eggs.
Prepared by the United States depart
ment Of agricultural
In order to obtain eggs 1t Is neces-
sary to have healthy, vigorous stock
and to supply proper food materials.
These are heterogeneous material or pro-
tein, Neutrality-suspicious. matter, succu-
Tents, mineral matter and water. Ma
ture provides the first In the form Of
worms and bugs and.when these are
absent or present in insufficient guam
tity, the poultryman supplies the same
sort Of food by giving eggs. meat
tgreen cut bone or beef scrap, milk or
cottage cheese. For the non-nitroge-
nous material nature furnishes seeds
and the farmer gives wheat, oats, corn
barley. etc. For succulents the fowls
In natural state find them In grass
and other green growing things. The
poultryman puts before his charges let
tuce. cabbage. kale. mangels, alfalfa,
clover. sprouted oats, etc. In their nat
ural state fowls find grit for themselves
and the cultivated varieties get grit
and oyster shells. Water. Of course,
must be pure.
A splendid mixture for laying hens
is equal parts of cracked corn. wheat
and oats. which should be scattered in
the litter.
Bran or middlings and beef scraps
should be kept in receptacles to which
the fowls have access at all times.
Plenty Of exercise increases the egg
yield.
Provide four or FIVE inches Of good.
clean litter IN which to scatter the
grain.
When wet mashes are fed be sure
they are crumbly and not sticky.
For the first three days chicks may
be fed mixture Of equal parts hard
boiled eggs and stale bread, or stale
bread soaked In milk. When bread
and milk are used care should be ex-
ercised to squeeze all milk out Of the
bread. From the third or fourth day
until the chicks can eat wheat and
cracked corn, commercial chick feed
Is good ration.
Plenty Of pure, fresh water. grit.
shell and green feed should be avail
able from the first day.
There is very little danger Of over
feeding young stock.
Feed the chickens about FIVE times
daily and only what they Will eat up
clean In few minutes. except at night,
when they should receive all they want.

er'er Fox and the Bunny.

Once upon time there was q hen
who, In order to be exclusive OF her
friends of the barnyard, built her nest
up the road In a thicket under the
fence and started in to raise brood
Of chicks.
Everything worked fine, but one
moonlight night there came sudden
stop. for down the road came fox,
nosing from side to side, till all of a
sudden he spied in the moonlight in the
grass the head of Mother Hen on her
eggs. Quick as flash he grabbed her
by the neck and dragged her off the
nest, and away up the lane he went.
Sooth to say. it looked bad for the eggs
in the nest. But up from the barn In
the lane came looping along, nosing
from side to side, little brown bunny,
when suddenly he lighted on the vacant
nest. Creeping closer, he took in the
situation, the warm nest and nobody
home. Instead of destroying them the
dear little fellow just placed his warm
body on the eggs and took the place
of the poor mother, kept them warm
all night. and the next morning. which
was Easter morn, he brought forth a
brood of chicks.

To tell old hens from young ones
note that the young ones are most apt
to have brighter eyes, redder combs
and smoother legs. They never have
spurs, while old ones do. and the old
hens move about more slowly.
Hens adapt their methods OF brood
ing to conditions such as temperature.

and the operator of brooder must meet
Shese conditions.
Any of our American breeds make
good setting hens, but there Is no

The Eaa and Easter.

A province of the ancients is that
Everything springs from the egg"
Many writer's assert that the custom
of exchanging eggs was borrowed from
the Jewish use of eggs during the feast
of the Passover.
Others say that it is traceable to the
fourth century. when the church pro-
hibited eggs during Lent. This gave
an abundance of eggs at Eastertide,
some of which parents gave to their
children, decorating them to make them
more attractive.
In Italy. it is believed that scarlet
Easter egg. carried about the person
during the year will bring good luck.
The farmers believed that the land
over which an egg had been rolled
yielded plentiful harvests.

Why ouassia Was So Called.

Quassia. that exceedingly bitter drug
so largely used for medicinal purposes.
owes its name to negro named Quas-
81, native of Surinam or Dutch Gui-
ana. who brought it into notice as a
medicine about the middle of the eight
eenth century. 1t was the wood of
the quassia amara, small branching
tree or shrub, all parts of which were
very bitter to the taste and which was
used for tonics. From Surinam it was
introduced into Stockholm in 1856 and
in quite short time became popu-
lar medicine all over Europe. At one
time so efficacious was it considered
that drinking cups were made OF 1t for
the use of invalids suffering from
dyspepsia or similar ailments.
