FEEDING MASH IN DRY FORM
More Equal Distribution Of Food 10
Obtained by Use Of Hopper
Feed Some Cut Bone.

Some of the most experienced poul-
try breeders claim that the best re-
suits can be obtained by feeding mash
in dry form in hoppers where fowls
have access to 1t at all times. This
allows a NOR. equal distribution OF
the food
A slight feed of moist mash about
three times week In addition to this
dry mash is good. 1t is essential in
preparing this mash that the mixing
process not be sighted, as a little
longer mixing will result in a much
better mash and prevent the using Of
an excess of water which tends 10
make the mixture pasty.
By mixing green cut bone with the
mash in the quantity hereinafter Civ,
en- food will be obtained that Is I'M
equaled for laying hens.
Probably the best way to feed this
ration is to give the flock a quantity
which they will consume entirely in
from eight to ten minutes.
This should be given them three
times week and the amount usually
runs SO that each fowl will receive on
an average of one ounce at each feed
ing or every two days. In other
words, about one-half ounce of green
cut bone per fowl per day is consid
cred the right amount.

THE DOCYOR'S WIFE

A trained nurse says: "In the prac-

palate Tan essential in food for the
sick) and can be adapted to all ages,
being softened with milk or cream for
babies or the aged when deficiency OF
teeth renders mastication impossible.
For fever patients or those on LIQUID
diet / find Grape-Nuts and albumen
water very nourishing and refreshing.
This recipe is my own idea and Ia
made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful
of GrapeNuts in glass of water for
an hour, strain and serve with the
beaten white of an egg and spoonful
of fruit juice for flavouring. This af-
fords a great deal OF nourishment that
even the weakest stomach can assimi-
late without any distress.
My husband is a physician and be
many times for his patients.
Personally regard a dish OF Grape
Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the
ideal breakfast for anyone-well or

Remark Hard to Explain.

Everyone had gathered in the draw

feeling contented with themselves as
well as at peace with the outside
world, when 1t was suggested as a pas
time that every lady should state the
gift she most coveted, and the posses
sion OF which she would most prize.
With prompt acquiescence each regis
tered her choice. Mrs. Wellman wished
for the most exquisite jewels extant,
Mrs. King desired to be the best
dressed woman in society, Mrs. Dray-
ton preferred to own the handsomest
turnouts, while Mrs. Smith craved
popularity. Robinson, springing from
his chair, exclaimed: Heavens, don't
