WINTER LAYERS
The REAL LAYERS
By J. H. McFAUL, Jr.
an Rights Reserved

I given, instead of being driven away BY
the bolder ones.
But the grain food is not sufficient to
make eggs. These are produced only
! from the excess material. that which is
not used to develop and keep in condition
the various organisms which compose the
body of the fowl Thus, in addition TO
the food necessary to sustain the body of
the bird, it is also necessary to supply
food for eggs, and this must be strong in
protein.
Along with the proper housing, which
is essential to egg production, goes feed
ing. Every poultryman should carefully
guard against feeding any food that is
not clean and wholesome. Musty and
mouldy grain, tainted meat scraps or de-
cayed fruits or vegetables should always
be avoided. Then too, the surroundings
should always be sanitary, and the drink
ing water pure.
In addition to the balanced-grain ration,
supply the birds with a liberal amount of
mash food for production. One of the
most important points to consider in the
feeding for eggs, however, is the feeding
of green food on the range, but during |
the winter. when it is impossible for them |
to obtain this class of food, it must be |
supplied. This can best be done at & very |
small cost to the breeder, in the form of
green sprouted oats. Cabbage and man.
gels also make good forms of green food,
but my preference is for oats.
You may have your own methods of
feeding for winter eggs, one which might
be productive of good results if properly
and do not wish to insist,
nevertheless, that you give the fowls
your best efforts during the winter, in
,rder that you might be able to show a
profit, because, unless this is your aim,
md if you are unwilling to devote con-
of your time to the hens, you
lad better sell out before sinking more
money in a business that will prove un-
,roftable.

If your focks contain any dead tim
ber," that is non-producers, get rid of
them at once, while there is still time.
Fowl meat is bringing a good price at
the present time, and these will be worth
more to you on a market stall than about
the plant where all they do is consume

In answer to a question concerning the
use of mustard in stimulating egg pro-
duction, would say, that it is used by
some persons with good results, as are
other condiments, but if used at all, it
should be done with the utmost care lest
more harm than good result. Personally,
would advise that it be left alone.

It is well during extremely cold weather
that the chill be taken off the drinking
water before it is given to the fowls.
This, however, does not mean that they
should be given hot water to drink.
Merely prevent chilling their bodies.

Ell PASO, April Olive hundred Carranza sol
diers, withdrawn from the chase after Villa, were
brought into Jaurez under cover of darkness mast

Latest reports from the south indicate that Villa
is understanding his American pursuers. Wednes-

southeast of Chihuahua City, according to Mex
lean advices. The reports stated that Villa and a
small band Of picked followers were riding hard on
selected mounts. Behind him two troops Of
the Seventh cavalry, who endeavoring to keep
up with the bandit but the jaded horses of the
Americans not equal to the task.
The pursuit has carried the Americans 800 miles
as the flies, from the base at Columbus, New
Mexico. Every mile of the American advance
adds to the danger owing to the long thin line Of
communication.
