CHICKENS NEED SOME MEAT
Wisconsin Poultry Expert Believes
Protein Food Produces Greater
Results at Lower Cost.

That IL is poor policy for farmers
not to feed some kind of food to their
chickens which is high in protein val
ue, such as beef scraps, or sour milk,
is the opinion of II. l.. Kempster, as.
sociate professor Of poultry husbandry
at the University of Missouri.
Mr.. Kempster has recently conduct
ed an experiment which he believes
proves conclusively that protein food
produces greater results at lower
costs. In three separate pens the
same number of chickens were kept.
All were fed corn all of the time.
wheat part of the time, and in addi-
ton ground rations of bran, middlings
and cornmeal. Besides the regular
feed for the chickens in all three pens,
those In pen one were fed beef scraps,
and those in pen three were given all
the sour milk they wanted The hens
were about the same age. The expert
ment covered the time between No
vember / and June /.
Those hens in pen two, given only
the regular feed, produced only 500
eggs; those in pen one, given beef
scraps, produced 1913 eggs; and those
in pen three, fed sour milk, produced
LAPS eggs. The hens in pen one ate
923 pounds of grain, those in pen two
944 pounds and those In pen three S36
pounds.
The amount Of beef scraps fed to
the chickens in pen one was so pounds
costing $3.50. These hens produced
718 more eggs than those chickens fed
only the regular ration. In other
words, these chickens produced 71S
additional eggs on feed which cost
but $3.50 more than the regular ration.
Those hens fed sour milk produced
nearly as many eggs as those fed the
beef-scrap ration.

BREAKING EGG-EATING HABIT
Generally Confined to Hens Kept in
Small Yards and Results From
Lack of Animal Food.

The egg-eating habit when general
in a flock of hens is hard to break.
The habit Is generally confined to
hens kept in confinement or small
yards, and usually results from idle
ness or lack Of animal food in the ra-
tion. Or the habit may have it's be-
ginning in a flock from the accidental
breaking of eggs.
Hens kept in confinement should be
supplied the food elements that are
obtainable on range. Animal food
must be supplied, and provision must
be made to keep the hens busy by
compelling them to scratch in deep
litter for the grain portion OF their
ration. Shell.making material must
also be supplied, since the ordinary
grains are deficient in lime, and soft
shelled eggs will likely result unless
oyster-shell, or old plaster is kept be-
fore the hens all the time.
Egg eating can be prevented by pro-
yiding low-covered nests. The nests
should be so low that the hen barely
has room to creep on and off and
cannot stand erect in the nest. When
unable to stand erect, 1t is impossible
for the hen to break the eggs with
her beak. The nests should also be
darkened. This can be done by hav-
ing the nests along the rear wall. with
the opening to the nests facing the
wall. The eggs should be gathered
several times day.

USE OF CARBON BlSULPHlDE
Affords Rather Cheap and Simple
Treatment for Graduating Grain
Moths and Wecvils.

O3y r. J. TALBERT, Missouri College OF
Agriculture.)
A stitch In time saves nine, but even
the time may not remedy the damage
one would have prevented. Usually
late threshing has left the grain In
the stack or shock exposed TO tho
attacks OF the grain moth and the
weevil this year. Fortunately. n rath-
er simple. cheap treatment with car
bon bisulphide will destroy all tho
weevils and moths that infest stored
grains. This liquid looks very much
like water but when poured on rags
or into shallow pans on the top OF
grain, rapidly forms a gas so much
heavier than air that II goes down
among the kernels. destroying all
weevils and moths.
The temperature, size. shape. and
tightness OF bins or granaries are i'm.
portant factors. II is not worth
while TO fumigate when the tempera-
ture Is below 90 degrees +. More
bisulphide is required and even then
unsatisfactory results are obtained.
One pound OF liquid for every 80
bushels OF grain will be enough IL the
bin IL tight and the temperature
above 20 degrees. Another pound
should be used for every 200 cubic
feet OF space above the grain In the
bin
The liquid may be thrown directly
on the grain without injury. but bet
ter results will be secured by pour
Ing IL into shallow pans. scattered
over the surface. or II these are not
available, II may be poured upon old
rags or cotton waste. One-half pound
should be poured into each pan. The
liquid may be poured down through
q gas pipe I'm order to get IL near the
center and bottom OF very large bins.
Plug one end OF the pipe with cotton
or old rags. push IL down through the
grain and then remove the plug by
pushing rod down through the pipe.
The granary or bins should be
kept closed as tightly az possible for
36 hours. and II tho seed is not TO be
sowed. for 48 hours. The grain will
be Just as good for feed after treat
ment as before, but II IL IN TO be

be done In the daytime. Cost may
