GREEN FEEDS FOR

Green feeds for poultry contain only
small per cent Of actual feed nutri-
ents. but are important because of
their succulence and bulk, which light
en- the grain rations and assist in keep
ing the birds in good condition. The
poutryman should secure a sufficient
supply of such feeds to last through
the winter months in sections where
growing green foods cannot be obtain

out the use Of milk green feed helps to
keep them in good condition.
Cabbases. mangel wurzels, clover,
alfalfa and sprouted oats are the green
feeds commonly used during the win
ter. Cabbages do not keep as well in
ordinary cellars as mangel wurzels, so
where both of these feeds are available
the cabbages are fed first. They are
often suspended, while the mangel
wurZe,s are split and stuck on a nail
on the wall Of the pen. Glover and
alfalfa may lie fed as hay cut into one
half and one inch lengths or may be
bought in the form of meal. Alfalfa
meal has feeding analysis equal to
bran. but is not as digestible on &C.

Feed For Winter Eous.

Hens must have grain to supply the
carbohydrates for the eggs and skim
milk or beef scrap for the protein.
Grit and shell aid digestion. and min.
eral matter builds up the eggshell
The pullet or hen must also have
green food in abundance at all times.
Don't feed the hens by measure, but
give them all they will eat up readily.
Feed the meat scrap and ground or
rolled grain in hoppers. This may be
before the hens at all times. or the
hoppers may be open during the after
noon only.-Orange Judd Farmer.

AS a rule, the average Belgian
horse will remain In good flesh un-
der conditions where the ordinary
horse would get thin. Belgians are
easy keepers because they are rath-
err short Of length and leg. 1t will
usually be noticed that horse Of
moderately short leg and body will
keep in better flesh on short rations
than will one of the loosely built,
