BALANCED RATION FOR HENS
In Experiment Conducted by Ohio Sta
tion Fowls Gained in Weight and
Produced More Eggs.

Feeders of horses, cattle, sheep and
hogs have claimed for years that these
animals must be fed balanced
ration. Special attention has been
given to balanced ratiOns for dairy
cows. By this is meant that one feed
constituent should not be fed In eX-
cess, while another is lacking for the
upkeep of the animals body The pro-
tein must be in a certain proportion
to the sugars, starches and fat in the
feed. Now the hen comes in for her
share in this scientific feeding.
Ten times as many eggs were pro-
duced by hens fed a well-balanced
ration as by those given only corn,
wheat and oats in an experiment con-
Quoted by the Ohio experiment sta

of three parts by weight of corn and

FRUIT AND VEGETABLE CROPS
Problems in Marketing Perishable
Products Begin With Produc-
tion-Important Factors.

The problems Ia the marketing OF
the vast amount of perishable food
products begin, as do most marketing
problems, with production. The vari-
ETY. of the fruit 'or vegetable grown
and the amount of this variety avail
able, often are important factors in
shaping market demand and prices.
The quality of the product, as influ-
enced by choice of soils, fertilizers
and cultural methods, is another i'm
portant consideration affecting mar
keting success.
Since the growing of perishable
fruits and vegetables is on a rela-
lively small-scale basis, while the
large aggregate demands of the great
market centers have brought about
the existence OF dealers who handle
such produce only in large lots, the
questions Of production which later
influence marketing can be dealt with
satisfactorily in most cases only on a
community basis. This fact and the
recognition that many other problems
could be met satisfactorily only by CO.
operating groups of producers, has
led TO the organization Of cooperative
marketing associations in many Sec
tons devoted more or less extensively
TO the production of such perishable
crops.

SPRAY OUTFIT is ESSENTIAL
Many Places on Farm Where 1t Is
Needed-VaIuabIe in Orchard,
Garden and Henhouse.

No farm should be without a good
spraying outfit. There are so many
places where it is valuable. The or
chard, the garden and the henhouse
all need it. The little bucket spray
ers are just an aggravation for any
use where pressure and speed are
needed, though they are fully as USE
full as one could expect them to be.
For spraying one or two trees, or for
the henhOuse, they will do very we'll,
but in large field of potatoes, q large
orchard of large trees, or where force
enough is needed to throw the spray
into dense foliage, they cannot be ex-
pected to dO the work as we'll as a
more powerful pump. The lever ac-
ton of the barrel pump handle adds to
the power exerted, and the larger CYL
inder gives faster flowing stream and
a greater pressure can be maintained
with the same nozzle. A barrel spray
err that takes barrel without a head
and is attached to the rim of the bar
rel, will give good service.

SEE FAILURE IN THE HOME
Growing Laxity in Discipline There
Declared a Crime Cause by
Prison Directors.

Growing laXity in mental and moral
training and discipline in the home is
responsible in a large measure for the
unprecedented growth Of population at
CALIFORNIA; prison and reformatories
during the last two years, the Sacra-

by the state board of prison directors
in the biennial report filed with Gov
ernOr Johnson.
There appears TO be an increasing
disposition among parents to place
pleasure above duty and to place much
Of the responsibility Of parenthood on

Farmers who wish to put their or

Trees in heavy-bearing Condition will

done during late winter and early
spring. Pruning during June and July
will slightly check the rank growth on
trees that are making too much wood
growth and tend to throw them into
bearing for the following year. DR.. j.

healthy wood on all sides of the wound
to get rid of the disease. Then paint
the wound with common white lead

TO secure low, broad-spreading
branching system, with open center, to
admit sunlight and air from above. Do
not remove strong lower limbs If they
can be given sufficient light from above.
Aim TO secure bearing branches
throughout the main body of the tree.
If the tree is shaded by too much
twigS will weaken and die instead of
bearing fruit.
Cut back the strong, upward-grOw-
ing central limbs to outward-growing
side branches. This induces the tree
to spread laterally instead of growing
too high. 1t admits light through the
center to fruiting branches below. If
limbs cross each other or crowd badly,
thin them out enough to admit filtered
sunlight to all parts Of the tree.
In pruning cut limbs close, so as to
leave no stub or knot. A protruding
knot will not heal. A wound cut close
will allow the growing layer to close
over the wound.
Paint all wounds over one-half inch
in diameter with the disinfecting paint.

The Good Gamblers. :"

The Senate is on solid ground in
assailing those who are gambling in
the necessaries of life in this hour of
the nations peril.
Short shrift in peace times should
be given those who speculate in
food. In war times there are few
drastic remedies-the lamp post"
as one Senator suggested yesterday.
In this particular phase of domestic
integration we should be as auto
cratic as is Germany.
Perhaps the Senate is barking up
the wrong tree in suggesting that all
boards of trade, stock exchanges or
chambers of commerce which permit
speculation in food futures should be
suspended for the duration of the
war. There is doubtless a more eff
fective way of going about this bust
ness.
But by some method the end of
prohibiting all food gambling should
be accomplished Penal sentences
should be provided for those who try
to raise the prices of foodstuffs at
the present time. They are far too
high now The public has an in
grained suspicion that manipulation
is to blame. Certainly the farmer is
not getting the benefit of the in
creased prices. Nor is the nation, in
higher taxation. Extra money is 60
ing to somebody, nobody has ascer-
tanned just whom, although it has
been proved that the dislocation OF
transportation due to increased traf-
fic demands has something to do
with it.
The services of experts should be
called for the framing of the legisla-
tion the Senate proposes. 1t should
not be left to caprice or to chance. 1t
is bound to become one of the most
vital elements in the war, for the
food speculator will not hesitate to
ply his trade if the law does not re-
strain him. There is no man for
whom more drastic punishment
should be provided, not even the
man discovered giving "aid and COM
fort" to the enemy.
