VALUE OF MILK AS
A FEED FOR CHICKS
Tends to Prevent Mortality From
All Causes-Exercise Is of
Much Importance.

The following are the conclusions of
Bulletin No. 80 of the Storrs Conn
agricultural experiment station, en-.
titled
Chickens. Milk Feeding and Its In
fuence on Growth and Mortality. Com
parative Study of the Value Of Sweet
Milk and Sour Milk"
The feeding Of milk to young chicks
has most favorable influence on the
growth and On the lessening Of NOR
tally of the chicks. It tends to pre-
vent mortality from all causes, and
II fed soon enough and for a sufficient
ly long period, greatly reduces the
death rate caused by bacillary white
diarrhea.
Sweet and sour milk are apparently
Of equal value in their relation to
growth and mortality. Furthermore,
different degrees Of souring do not
alter the results Of milk feeding.
The value Of milk as a feed for
chicks does not depend upon any acids
that may be present, nor upon any
particular types Of heterogeneous,
but upon one or more Of the natural
constituents Of the milk.
When milk is supplied freely to
chicks it becomes all the more impor-
tant that they have abundant exercise.
This applies more particularly to
early-hatched chicks that are brooded
wholly or for the most part indoors.
The feeding of sweet or sour milk
to young chicks has in no instance
been found to be in any way injurious
to the chicks employed in our numer-
Gus experiments

it is not easy to deny the request of four
such girls as no other sanatorium had ever
fered,-friendly girls, whose eyes danced
with life and fun.
HE went for his hat, stick, and overcoat,
and before he knew it he had walked
mile. First one and then another of his
new acquaintance walked beside him.
He found that he had known Ethel San
derson's brother in college, and that fact
brought them instantly to friendly
basis. Mabel Walling was the daughter
of a well known New York surgeon. Ger
aldine Hardness interested him in an ac-
count of camping trip she had taken the
previous year through the Maine woods.
He was in glow from his unwonted exer-
else, and the bronze-eyed Ethel was car
rying his overcoat when he realized that
he had covered two miles and knew the
first names of the trio. This would not
do! He stopped suddenly with sigh,
and clapped his hand to his heart
"Are you ill?' they cried solicitously.
"Oh no, nothing" he said, swallowing;
"that is, nothing unusual"
He sat on the stone wall beside the
road, and they gathered about him in a
protecting semcrcle. 1t was a new and
stimulating experience to be ministered
to by four such radiant young beings.
"My hearts jumping like a rabbit"
Ethel confessed. But of course a heart
always works harder when you're walk
ing.
Geraldine suggested that they all count
their heartbeats, write the figures on the
wall, and strike an average. This proved
to be seventy-nine, with Stuart's report
of eighty-two thrown in.

"What would be funny?' chimed the
Others.

pose a lot of girls were in love with MIR.
Lybrand, anyone,-and wrote their
pulses down like this, and he chose the
one whose heart thumped the fastest as
the one he cared most about
"Thats mean of you," said Geraldine
indignantly, "and almost underbred,
when you know you were three beats
higher than the rest of us!'
A competition for his affections based
on his stimulating effect upon their re-
spective pulses evoked the greatest merri-
ment, and he laughed himself into reck-
less humor. He jumped down, and they
made another mile in glow of good
spirits, Miss Crosby walking beside him
with the fine stride of woman used to
tramping. He caught her scrutinizing
him closely from time to time Once
when the trio sprang away for run she
asked whether they hadn't better turn
back He scorned the idea Indignantly.
The three raced back to say that they had
negotiated for milk and bread and butter
at a farmhouse He was ashamed of his
weakness in drinking two glasses of milk
and eating three slices of buttered bread,
assuring them that such thing had never
happened before.

Miss Crosby added her own plea that

already assigned, was beside Mrs Cor

meals she could hardly take offense if he
moved. Not only was the change effected,

"and I've seen the most heartbreaking

The three girls murmured their awe of
his wide experience of suffering mankind.
"But they promise the panacea here:
you have but to come to be cured!' said
Miss Crosby cheerfully. Then, seeing
that the hope of speedy restoration awak-
ened no response in him, she made haste
to add, But of course there are cases that
are quite hopeless, l suppose.
"Yes-yes!' he muttered lugubriously.
"Oh, we've been keeping you standing!

He included them all in the deliberate
bow of one who must be wary of undue
exertion. Miss Crosby observed, how
ever, that his step quickened as he crossed
the threshold.
At nine o'clock, as the quartet returned
caught glimpse of Stuart and Mrs. Cor
don, their heads close together, in dark
corner of the veranda.
THE next morning Stuart successfully
lodged bridge game and sent a box
of violets to Mrs. Gordon, imploring her
to brighten the world for him by appear
ing at once. He became bitter at learn
ing that she was having a massage and
would not be down until after lunch.
Verify the world was against him. To add
to his unhappiness the superintendent,
after studying his case for two days, as
sured him that all he needed was exercise
and fresh air to set him up again. His
heart was perfectly normal: the trouble
was all in his stomach.
This was discouraging, as was also the
cool fashion in which the unfeeling phys-
clan told him to discontinue the medicine
he had brought with him. If he would
walk ten miles a day, he could eat tripe
and cabbage and be a happy man. Stuart
hated cheerful doctors. He had known a
number, and they were all bad diagnosti-
clans. If it hadn't been for Mrs. Cor
don's propinquity, he would have packed
his trunk and left at once.
SUDDENLY, as he gazed gloomily out
upon the sunny hills, his name was spo-
ken in hopeful tones, and he turned fret
fully, to find Miss Crosby and her three con-
valescents ranged before him, clad in blue
sailor suits that enhanced their youthful
Hess. Even Miss Crosby seemed much
younger than on the previous evening.

one thing in all the world that would fill
their day with delight.

you, he began; "but--"

"Of course we don't want to be a

On the whole he was pleased, and his
face showed his pleasure. 1t might be

Ethel Sanderson said she did not care
much for it, a blasphemous utterance that
caused Stuart to frown. However, Miss
Crosby, after a careless glance at the re-
treating figure, remarked gently that one
couldn't always tell: that people with in
durable maladies often faced the world
bravely.
