USE CRATES FOR FATTENlNG
That They Will Get as Little
Exercise as Possible.

The first essential in fattening
fowls of any kind is to keep them con.
fined so that they can get as little
exercise as possible. For this purpose
crates or regular fattening pens are
best. These pens should be so ar.
ranged that they can be easily cleaned.
In many cases the bottom is left slat.
ted so that the soft droppings caused
by the fattening ration will drop
feathers.
The following method of fattening,
in which milk is used. will give salts
factory results: A mash consisting of
four parts of cornmeal, two parts
wheat middlings and one part beef
scraps should be wetted with skim
milk until II is thin enough to run
from spoon. should be fed to the
chickens in troughs. They should be
allowed to eat as much of this mash
as they will. In addition to this they
should be given all the water they
will drink, and a plentiful supply OF
green food. This method produces a
very fine, soft, sweet meat.
In commercial milk.fattening plants
buttermilk is used in combination with
ground feed similar to the above
method but the farmer will generally
find 1t more convenient to use skim
milk.
In following this method of fatten-
ing, on account OF the soft mash
foods liability to contamination. care
should be taken to keep everything
clean and sanitary. The troughs and
dishes should be scalded after each
feeding. and the pens should also be
kept well cleaned.

PEACH DAlNTIEs OF MERIT
Many Ways Of Preparing Fruit Which
All Appreciate for Its Per
feet Flavor.

For peach cobbler, prepare plain
pastry from three pints OF flour aud
three-fourths of pound of mixed lard
and butter. Line the baking dish with
this and pour in two quarts of freshly
stewed peaches, covering the dish with
pastry lid, pierced here and there to
let out steam. Bake until brown and
then cover thickly with powdered
sugar and serve steaming hot with rich
cream.
Here is another peach pie recipe:
Bake a rich pastry crust until brown
and crisp and then cool. Just at serv-
ing time heap IL high with sliced
peaches, sprinkle with sugar and pile
whipped cream on top. A variation
of this recipe is this: Cut short pastry
into squares and fold the four corners
to the center. Moisten them with
milk, press them down so that they
will remain in place, prick the pastry
with fork and bake one square for
each person. Brown in the oven, chill
and serve piled high with peaches cut
into large pieces, stewed Just until
tender and sweetened to taste. Top
with big spoonful of whipped cream.
Still another peach pie. the favorite
of very good cook, is this: Sift to-
gether cupful and half of flour, a
quarter OF cupful of sugar, two tea
spoonfuls of baking powder and a
pinch of salt. Into this cut half cup
full of butter and add enough milk to
make a stiff batter. Use as little milk
as possible Roll into a thick sheet,
line deep pie pan with it and slice
peaches into it, Sweeten them well
and cover them with sour or sweet
milk, then bake until done in mod.
crate oven.
A tempting dessert is peach whip.
To make 1t press ripe peaches through
a vegetable press, sweeten to taste
and mix Immediately with whipped
cream or whipped egg whites. Pile in
tall glasses and serve very cold.
Another tempting dessert is peach
sandwich, one for each person Slice q
stale sponge cake and dip the slices
quickly in milk. Then brown in but
ter. Between each two slices pile
freshly sliced. sweetened peaches ant
pile on whipped cream.

BREEDING HENS FOR LAYERS

In breeding for layers you will start

they should be of a laying breed and

must keep the record closely for that
season, and even IL purebred and you
are breeding for a 150-egg record for
the year. you may possibly come out
with three or four only of the twelve
that come up to the number Of eggs
wanted, and unless you have marked
the eggs from each one of the trap
nested hens you are likely to not
know one chick hatched from these
hens that are to form the start for the
laying strain, but il you do know the
chicks from these hens eggs-a diff

CALVES INTENDED FOR BEEF
Necessary to Give Young Animals
Grain While on Milk piet-Flrst
Winter Of Importance.

When you are feeding calves in
tended for beef animals you have two
methods which may be followed. You
can let the calf run with the COW or
you can remove the calf and feed him
skim milk and grains instead Of giving
him the whole milk. writes l.. Hunt of
Kansas in Farm Progress. In these
days of dairying the calf that is not
vealed is likely to become a skim milk
calf. Tho youngster that runs with his
mother usually ends his first summer
in excellent flesh, while the skim milk
calf is not plump, but usually has a
larger frame.
II you are going to make beef out OF
either of these calves 1t is necessary to
give them grain while on a milk diet,
if It is plain that they need this extra
ration. In handling the skim milk calf
give him a little oil meal while the
change from the whole to the skim
milk is under way and keep 1t up as he
grows older and bigger. Keep him on
the pasture and at the same time keep
up the feed of skim milk and oil meal

Such calves refuse TO drink milk or

Although not fully developed and
matured until the twelfth or fifteenth
month, a chick reaches nearly full
size in six to eight months. Birds are
the most active. maintain the highest
bodily temperature, and perform the
most rapid digestion OF food of all the
domestic animals. Their bodily proc
esses are rapid also. and it follows
that results of wrong care or feeding
are more quickly disastrous. and the
disaster is more likely to be lasting
than with any other animals.

and skillful care to a flock of brooder

their lives and then by three hours
