Wants Bread Design.

Our treasury department keeps
changing the designs on our coins.
The latest change is in the dime.
On one side is the Goddess of Lib
erty which is very satisfactory.
But on the other side is Roman
design, the lictor's rod and axe
entwined with laurel. There
doesn't appear to be any good
reason for. going to Rome for a
design for an American coin.
In view of the high prices now
prevalent in this country, it
strikes us that a loaf of bread

HOW TO FEED

= With Prices as They Are
FAT POULTRY SELLS FOR MORE

With RuttermiIk and Skimmilk.

(By r. N. Crane, College of Agricul-
ture, University of Tennessee.)
When the farmer raises a fowl and
places it on the market without fat
tening it he loses an opportunity to
market much grain and waste milk at
two or three times the market value.
In order to feed hens properly the
farmer should make feeding crate,
the compartments OF which should be
Is inches high and 20 inches square.
The bottom should be made of lathes
set on edge to allow the droppings to
fall through and to keep the coop
clean. The coop should be enclosed
with lathes running from bottom to
top. The laths should be placed apart
sufficiently to allow the fowls to reach
their heads through without rubbing
when attempting to get food and
water. The food and water should be
placed in troughs fastened to the
front of the coop.
A food mixture of excellent value is:
IS pounds of ground wheat.
100 pounds of ground corn.
rs pounds of cottonseed meal.
rs pounds of ground oats.
This mixture to be used with butter
milk or skimmilk, mixed into thick
paste, allowing the fowls all they will
eat night and morning
The coop should be placed where
the fowls will be quiet, not subject to
fright or annoyance.
Best results are obtained when poul-
try is dressed at home, unless there
is a produce dealer in your neighbor-
hood who dresses and ships.
