Breeder Should Remember, First of
All, Never to Overfeed and Never
Give Anything Spoiled.

In feeding small turkeys, remember
never to o%verfeed, and never to feed
anything the least spoiled. Feed often
but very little at a time. Provide grit
and charcoal. Feed plenty of soul
milk in addition to fresh drinking
water. Mix a little wheat bran and
middlings with the cornmeal, moisten
this a very little with soul milk and
feed sparingly in low rim pie tins. In
addition feed very sparingly of a little

of prohibition and prosperity are indi-

more might be cited):

men where the brewery employed rs.

structures), formerly occupied by
liquor firms, now house a ladies' and

FEEDING MILK TO CHICKENS
Has Most Favorable Influence on
Growth and Lessening of Mortal
ity Average Among FIocks.

The feeding of milk to young chicks
has a most favorable influence on the
growth, and on lessening the mortal
ity average.
Sweet and sour milk are of equal
value in chick feeding. The degree of
sourness does not affect the nutritive
value.
Chicks fed milk freely should have
abundant exercise. This applies par
ticularly to early Matched or brooder
chicks.
In no way is milk injurious, but
whether you feed sweet or sour milk,
the same should be fed continually
until the end of the milk feeding
period. Whichever is most convenient,
adhere to consistently.

kitchen stove, in the cellar, on dirt
or on burlap. The trick is to soak
the oats with water, spread them out
in the light and keep them a and
moist until the blades are from three
to six inches long.
A successful feeder soaks the oats
for "a hours, spreads them in a shall
low box and places it in the cellar.
Frequently an inch or more of sand is
placed in the bottom of the box upon
which the oats are spread.
