an egg producer or a grower of fine table
would not always prefer a wet mash. Mr..
Whitman says:
Wet mashes went out because. first they
were an old thing second they were more
trouble; third, they required more cleanli-
ness, more thoroughness, more intelligence
fourth. many would not or could not feed
them at the proper time. late afternoons or
evenings; NTH, many could not be satisfied
dlings, ground oats, cornmeai, plus beef
scrap or milk. but had to add such unpal-
atable or harmful things as cottonseed meal,
soy bean meal. llnseed oil meal, alfalfa meal,
cayenne pepper. etc
Wet mashes were adhered to by some
or the biggest and oldest poultry or egg
FARMERS In the State. These people are
stiil feeding the same. and incidentally,
these parties are getting more eggs out of
their pullets yearly than any one else
Wet mashes offer, too, a splendid me-
dium to use TO advantage boiled small or
waste potatoes, turnips. pumpkins, etc. A
variation or substitute for n wet mash Is
oats soaked twenty-four hours or more In
cold water boiled until all water has dis
appeared. Tho addition OF n little salt and
the poultry is crazy for this feed.
WET mashes must not be fed TO adult
hens inclined to take on fat; must not be
led before noon In any case must be fed
fairly wet and only so much as will be
eaten quickly; must be simple In combi-
nation and must be palatabie; must be
clean and fed clean and must be fed regu-

and not down. The brushing should be
continued for five OF ten minutes.
II the hair Is thin the scalp will have to
be nourished and massaged. The rubbing
with the finger tips increases the circulation
OF the blood through the scalp and also pro-
yides the hair with proper nourishment
Five or ten minutes a day is sufficient to

castor oil or vaseline every day, rubbing in
well into the roots OF the hair Constant

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Three Delicious Meat Extras" for
Luncheon

"A HOT meat dish in the middle of the day
~ is most welcome during cold weather
when the body demands heating food. And
yet very often the housekeeper objects
70 having a meat dish both at noon and In
the evening, partly because an excess of
meat is unwholesome and partly because
Il is expensive. Here is where the meat
"extras" are solution, as they provide
the basis for an appetizing meat-iavored
dish minus the expense or heavy protein
value OF steak or roast.
Meat extras, so-called, are the liver,
heart kidneys. tongue and also sausages,
and while all of these items are not cheap,
they are used In smaller quantities than
meat and hence their total cost for a
meal Is less. The best liver is calf liver,
and can serve for several meals in an
average family. However, usually the
butcher is willing to cut the liver and sell
Il by the pound in any quantity desired
Beef liver is larger than calf liver,
has stronger flavor and is not quite so
tender, but it's costs less, and pig liver is
cheapest OF all.
The veal kidneys are best. but beef,
veal mutton. lamb and pork kidneys are
also used and cost very little Hearts can
be purchased for about fifteen cents, and are
havorful but not very digestble Here are
some simple inexpensive recipes for using
meat-favored dishes
4tQl ffWt LIVER CURRY

saucepan and when hot add liver cut in
small thin pieces. cooking for five min

Cook two minutes, then add one cupful
OF stock. allow to boil, and then pour over
toast.
BAKED KIDNEYS
Chop the kidneys. then mix with the
following ingredients: one-halt cupful of
chopped suet, one cupful of milk, two cup
fuls OF breadcrumbs, two beaten eggs Pep
per, salt, paprika and chopped parsley 10
season
Pour into buttered baking dish and
bake about fifty minutes. II can be served
with sliced lemon and parsley garnlsh or

 This service will remain in effect until Xmas, at which tune one of the large steamers will be taken off for overhauling and the Prince A. bert will take her run, and after this is completed theo Albert will take the run of the other boat.
