Sunday School Convention.
JOHN H. PAGE,
Com. of Agri.

Another District Sunday School Con.
vention was held at Omaha, August 5.
The Boone county officers attending
were, President c. H. Whitehead, f.
F. Wheeler, w. J. Moore and W. r.
Ruble, all from Harrison.
We found a good Sunday school,
though lacking in some organized ac-
tivities, but with excellent interest
and all due preparation had been made
for the convention. They rendered an
excellent and effective program. Ey
cry Sunday school in the district was
represented.
This being an all-day service the
generous housewives came with well
filled baskets and before the noon
hour had passed the Harrisonites were
feeling the hospitality of that commu-
nifty would never be forgotten. This
was the best convention we have at
tended in a long time.

TO great extent the poultrymen Of
the country have overlooked this sim
pie fact For one thing, birds Matched
later In the spring or summer are not
inclined to become broody until late
the following season. and thus an I'm

pullets mature too late to produce In
the fall and winter, and they sit too
late for their offspring to do any bet
ter The poultryman who wishes to
get really good returns from his flock
must break this circle.
The growing use Of incubators has
made this comparatively easier. There
Is no reason why incubators should not

the trouble and expense necessary to
obtain them is indicated by results at
the government poultry farm In Mary
land. There 1t Is not unusual to get a
daily average of one egg for every FIVE
hens throughout the fall and winter,
and In some pens the average has been
as high as one egg for three birds. If
anything like this percentage could be
obtained on farms the ordinary poul-
try farmer would derive real benefit
from the high prices which eggs In
variably bring for a period Of several
months.

FEEDING BROOD MARES
DUE TO FOAL IN SPRING

Mares due to foal during the spring
months need nourishing winter ra-
ton. A rapid development Of the young
colt is essential IL healthy yearling or
two-year-old is desired.
Proper feeding of the brood mare
during pregnancy determines In large
measure the strength Of the colt at
birth A grain ration of three parts
oats and one part corn by weight
serves very well. If timothy or mixed
hay is fed as roughage handful OF
oilmeaT should be given at each feed.
The digestive tract will be kept in bet
ter condition, and the hair coat will be
much sleeker If oilmeal is used. Oil
meal is unnecessary when clean clover
or alfalfa hay is fed.

After the comic pursuit. picture
movie directors were at their wits end

the custard pie. A custard pie bonn
bardment has two very strong elements
of humor concealed in its action. One
Is surprise, and the other is messiness.
There are lots of nice people who think
1t Is vulgar and outrageous to laugh at
such elemental humor, vet there is
something fundamentally funny in see

ten divides the two. If you make this
experiment you will learn that only a

and spoiled, but if you moon him. I

Dairy Cow Efficiency.


With good dairy cow the overhead
charges are less In proportion to the
work done than with poor one, says
@. FL. Eckles, dairy husbandry depart
ment, University of Missouri
With COW producing 100 pounds of
fat year more than half she consumes
is used to maintain the body The COW
that makes 450 pounds of fat a year
uses the same amount Of feed to main
tain her body. but 1t is only about IS
per cent of her total feed consumption.
The remaining IS per cent is used di-
rectly for milk making; hence much
larger proportion of her total ration is
available for milk production, and the
feed cost Of pound of fat or of milk
Is lower.

bran In connection with oats and corn
The present high price of mill feeds.
however, has led many feeders to re-
ject bran. There is no reason why
wheat bran should not be rejected In
the ration If oilmeal is given in the
amount recommended, said DR.. Hay-
ner. Although oilmeal costs more per
100 pounds than wheat bran, the cost
Of pound of protein in oilmeal is
much cheaper.
There is a tendency to feed horses
too much hay. During the winter
brood mares may be fed from one to
one ard fourth pounds Of hay per 100
pounds live weight daily. If clean
clover or alfalfa hay is used only one
pound per 100 pounds live weight daily
is necessary.
A combination of the grain and hay
ration recommended assures strong
colt and a good milk flow at foaling.
