CHICK DRY MASH

Total .............. loo lbs.
Outdoor runs should he provided
adjacent to the hovers and should be
kept seeded to green growing crops as
clover, alfalfa, etc. The chicks should
be let out on such runs as much of
the time as possible after the first
week.
Where the cockerels are to be mar
keted at ten to twelve weeks as broil-
ers, it will be well TO separate the
sexes at about eight weeks of age,
feeding the cockerels a more forcing
ration. This can be accomplished by
giving them the same dry mash mixed
crumbly with sour skim milk and by
increasing the cornmeal and meat to
double the amount recommended
above. This special feeding should
not be started until about two weeks
before they are to be marketed. This
is important in order to get them into
the best condition at killing time.
When the cockerels are separated at
eight weeks they can be left in the
brooders, the pullets being put in the
colonyhouses on the range, where they
will be reared during the summer with
the idea of egg production in the Fall
and winter.
The special points are, then, care
TO get good chicks to begin with.

fected by frost as are the single
combs; therefore the posi- bility of a
more uniform production of eggs In
winter from the rose-combed hens is
assured.
In every way the Rose Combed
White Leghorn is like it's SINGLE
combed sister-in size, shape, color
and characteristics of large produc-
tion of eggs, fertility, hatchability,
quick growth and early maturity, so
that in ATTITUDES where severe frosts
are common this variety of the Leg
horn is the best to use
They were undoubtedly created by
crossing White Hamburgs with White
Leghorns, but nothing of the egg-lay-
ing Characteristic was lost in the
cross. as both parents are rated as ex-
ceptional layers.

The best-known fowl in America to-
day is the White Leghorn. 1t is the
egg machine of the poultry family,
and as such is highly esteemed. Many
individuals and fiocks of this variety
have established enviable records for
egg production for from one to three
years, and whenever any man starts a
poultry farm on a commercial basis
he invariably stocks up with White
Leghorns, especially If near the New
York market, where the product of
the White LeghOrn hen is In great
demand at an advanced price.
In certain sections, however, it is
difficult to prevent the large single
combs from freezing. and in these
northern parts Rose Combed White
Leghorn is valued and used. Its large,
thick rose comb is not SO easily af-

Best Month For
Hen Hatching

May has been proven by long
experience and tests to be the best
month for Matching by hens.
Brooding hens are most in evil
dence in May, and the weather
conditions are more conducive to
good results. The late Matching
is overcome by the rapid develop
ment of chicks Matched at this
time.
Problems of egg selection. the
proper kind of nesting. the atten-
ton TO the chicks welfare, how
ever. have to be watched.
Next weeks article will deal
with these subjects. Look for it

THE USE OF SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR

Soap should be used very spar
ingly, if at all. if you want to keep
your hair looking its best Most
soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp. makes the hair brittle,
and ruins il.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsifed cocoanut
oil (Which ia pure and greaseless), =,
is cheaper and better than soap or
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly Simply moisten tho hair
with water and rub it in. It makes
an abundance of rich. creamy lath-
er. which rinses out easily. remov-
ing every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruh and excessive oil The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and
It leaves the scalp soft. and the
hair fine and silky. bright. lus-
trous, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy, and a few
ounces will supply every member
of the family for months.

to see me. He cared for me at first

stayed here I saw him every day. Since
then we have been corresponding, and
now he wants me to come out there to
become engaged. 1 will not have to
go there alone. as his sister is now
visiting me, and she viii so back with
me. My mother, nevertheless. objects
to my going, for she says I don't know
him well enough. When his people
lived here 1 never had tho opportunity
to see him, as he used to work cveu-
ings. Worried.

Where Woman Is a Calamity

life is spent in the anderson, or

and sherbets, but if her parents are

The Persian women are so restricted,
even the boys and girls not Delng al
lowed to mingle, that their cnlel
amusement is to give parties to eacn
other so that hey can show heir clothes
and Jewels on which they spend all
the money they can coax from their
