WHEN THE FOWLS WON'T LAY
Complaint Is Heard at All Seasons
Of Year-Ample Supply Of Water
Is Essential for Eggs.

Every month or so I hear some
chicken grower complaining that his
or her hens won't lay, in spite Of the
fact that they have plenty of fresh
water and that the ration is so bal
anccj that II ought to make the hens
lay in spite OF themselves.
This complaint is heard at all sea
sons OF the year and from the farm
hen owner as we'll as the man who is
trying to make success Of CONNER
cial poultry growing. It is serious,
too; for the steady, daily. production
OF eggs is the thing that we depend
upon to make hen keeping pay. In
some fiocks 1t is well-nigh chronic
complaint, but the owners seem never
to be able TO discover just why the
hens will lay for a month or two at
one season and go on a strike for the
rest OF the year, says a writer in Farm
Progress.
Any one of a hundred reasons may
be back OF the failure Of the hens to
lay when they should and as they
should Take the one reason OF old
age. for instance. A lot of us manage
our birds in such a hap-hazard way
that we are never very sure Of just
how old all our hens are.
Some people. too, will feed all man.
ner OF proper foods and feed them
regularly and neglect proper watering.
AS a hen egg is about two-thirds water
II is very evident that plenty Of water
of the right kind is one Of the mater
ials necessary to produce eggs. Then,
too. we sometimes neglect the ques-
ton OF grit, of charcoal, OF egg-laying
materials that have to do with shell
making and bone Strengthening.
In one or two cases that have no.
ticed the cause of the lack of egg was
caused by the dampness and clammi-
ness Of the henhouse. Hens neither
can nor will lay in a house that is
damp and depressing as a cellar.
Overcrowding is another reason why
hens fail to lay. II there are not
enough nesting boxes or II the floor
space or the roosting places seem
there will be certain fall
ing OF in egg production that may be
very serious. There is. Of course, but
one way to remedy this. There must
be more room provided or the flock
will have to be cut down to At Its
quarters without being crowded.
Vermin is another reason and big
one. Lousy hens will not lay. The
is being sucked out OF them
and the energy that ought to go into
is being taken to nourish
q few hundred mites per hen. The
Irritation that hens suffer when carry
Ing these mites and lice is bad enough
TO keep them from laying even II the

abundant, unless their numbers are

verse climatic conditions.
White grubs and May beetles. are
preyed upon by numerous birds,
mammals and insects, all of which are
useful in reducing their numbers. The
most important of these enemies are
the birds, especially crows and crow
blackbirds. Domestic fowls may
properly be classed as natural enc
mics OF white grubs. All farm poultry
are fond of these insects, and where
possible should be- given the run Of
infested fields at blowing time. Tur
keys are especially valuable in this
capacity. Among the mammals which
feed on the grubs the skunk is most
valuable, and, indeed, some farmers

An infested field may be cleared of

are fond of the insects and will root
to a depth of foot or more in search
OF them.
Where is is impracticable to pasture
hogs In an infested field much good
can be accomplished by fall blowing.

The best way to get eggs is to look

a green feed during the winter, when
there is no green feed. The way to

boards. Cover over with another sack,
and spread on another layer of oats
and then another sack and so on until
all the oats are spread. Then wet the

water, and keep in a warm place,
where II will not freeze, until the oats
sprout. When the sprouts get two or
three inches long begin to feed them

To keep mites out of the hen house,
use whitewash and sprinkle ashes all
around under the roosts. The ashes

WHITE GRUBS IN 19f6
Among the Most Serious Pests
to Farm Crops.
Conservative Estimate Of Damage TO
Corn, Timothy and Potatoes Placid
at Over 100000 In Three
Infested States.
CBy J. DAvIs)


The common white grubs or grub
worms, as they are often called, have
for years been recognized as among
the most serious pests TO farm crops,
notably corn and timothy, while
strawberries, potatoes and nursery
paintings have all been frequently and
seriously affected. Probably the most
serious outbreak of white grubs oc-
cured in 1912, following an abundance
OF beetles In 1911. In the worst infest-,
ed districts IL was not unusual TO End
from 40 to 60 grubs in a single hill OF
corn. Indeed, in a corn field in Iowa,
devoted to timothy in 1911, the writer

really represented less than a single
hill OF corn, for the hills in this field
we're 3h feet apart. From a personal
survey OF the infested territory made

FIRE PROTECTION FOR FARMS

In the current issue of Farm and
Preside a contributor tells how the
tall, towerlike silos in which up
to-date farmers store their grain
provide an excellent opportunity for
placing water tanks high in the air
that will be useful in case of fire.
Following is an extract from the ar
ticle:
"When building a thick-walled
silo you have an excellent oppor-
tunity TO install a complete system
OF water works for the house and
farm buildings. And with but little
additional expense fire hydrants can
be placed near or in each building
of any considerable size or impor-
lance. The addition of a portable
reel OF hose makes a complete sys-
TEN for fighting fire. II the silo is
built OF brick, concrete, or tile, a
water tank can be placed on top OF
il, with the supply pipe from the
well leading up through the center
OF il. The silage will prevent the
pipe from freezing in the winter.
The silo is generally the tallest of
all the farm buildings, so with a
water tank on top of ii you have
sufficient pressure to throw a stream
OF water TO the top of all other
buildings"
