Supplying Green Food For
The Fowls During Winter
By J. H. McFAUL, Jr.
(AH RiPhks Resetyen

hens, and each day refill the emptiec
tray, thus permitting you to feed the
sprOuted oats continually. This will
give the hens a daily allowance of green
food, so essential to a good egg produc-
tion.
The frame containing the trays, how
ever, should be placed in the sunlight
as far as possible, otherwise the sprouts
on the oats will be white instead of
green. The frame may be kept in any
good dry cellar and the oats sprouted
with but little trouble if the frame is
placed in position where the sunlight
may shine through a window on it.
Still there are quite a few persons
who claim that even this method is too
much trouble. l would have you re-
member, please. that anything worth
while will be found to be at least little
trouble. Don't expect the hens to do it
all. Your efforts along this line will be
greatly repaid for what little work is
required.
For the benefit of those who might
think this burden too great, however,
might say that oats can be successfully
sprouted without the frame and trays.
Secure eight boxes from a grocery
oboAO anu AAAto NiANsC BlhCE Tic oMGllCu
oats, the same as called for in the trays.
Place these boxes on a platform rugged
up by means of tressels and placed in
the sunlight. While, of course, it is not
possible to Overfeed hens with sprouted
oats, yet there is little advantage in
giving them a larger proportion than is
needed to accomplish the result desired.
In other words, ''wilful waste makes
woeful want" and for that reason a safe
allowance should be given and yet not
be wasteful.
Sprouted oats that have been sown to
a depth of One-and-a-half inches and fif-
teen inches square is a sufficient allow
ance for fifty fowls for one day.
If you have never before tested the
value of sprouted oats to a greater egg
production | would advise that you start
the coming winter right and adopt this
method. The outlay in real money is
but trifing, while the profits are greatly
enhanced by this method. MAKE hay
while the sun shines" is an old, but true
saying, and my advice to you is prepare
for the feeding of sprouted oats during
the coming winter by getting ready for
it now. Never wait until it is time to
to do anything before starting out, but
above all things, be prepared.

CHICKEN CHATS.

Don't harp" after glass in the poul-
try house. Many persons make the mis-
take of putting too many glass windows
in the hens quarters. Glass is alright
in its place, but that place is not in the
poultry house. Windows are alright,
but instead of being glazed, they should
be covered with fine wire and muslin or
some other light material. The presence
of glass makes the quarters extremely
warm and uncomfortable during the
day and cold and chilly at night. If
properly fed, the birds will be kept suf-
ficiently warm to Withstand the cold
weather.

See that the brood coops in which the
little chicks are housed are kept free of
lice. This is equally as important as
keeping them off the little fellows
themselves. You cannot grow lice and
flesh at the same time, and the former
invariably thrive while the latter suffer.

The penny wise and pound foolish
policy is often noticeable in the conduct
of many poultry plants. Such wishy,
washy methods will never bring satis-
factory results, but on the other hand,
will result in the heaping of unjust
criticism upon the business. Unless
you give the chickens a fair chance
don't blame them if they do not pro-
duee.
