INFLUENCE COLOR OF YoLKS
sprouted Oats Are One, Of Best Things
for That Purpose-They Also
Stimulate Egg Laying.

Color in the yolk of eggs is in
fluenced very largely by the green
food eaten, just as a yellow color in
butter is increased when the cows
have lots of grass. This is an item
In market requirements, for, while
some customers pay no attention to
the color of the yolk, others want it
quite golden or think that something
is wrong. In the fall. when green
feed is scarce and the yolks are nat
urally pale, 1t may be profitable to
give more green feed to bring the
color back, as well as to help the fowls.
Sprouted oats form one of the best
feeds for this purpose. as well as to
stimulate laying and the general
health of the hen, but most kinds of
green feeds will have the same effect.
One poultryman thought that rape
might be good green feed, hut found
that 1t made the yolks almost black,
so tried 1t no more. Kale, though re-
lated to rape, does not act this way.

able food value from which choice
may be made for late paintings in
e!Gae sweet corn, string beans, late
beets, turnips, tomatoes, squash,
and pumpkins. As far north as
northern New Jersey, southeastern
Indiana, northern Illinois, and CEN
trail Iowa, sweet potatoes also may be
depended on to mature from plant
ings made as late, ais June 10 on
sandy land.
Among the less nutritious vege-
tables which may be planted in soil
freed by early harvests are late
cabbage and cucumbers. Winter
onions, fall lettuce, and fall rad
ishes Also may be planted late in
the season.
1t is not essential, the specialists
point out, to wait until all radishes,
heads of lettuce, and other early
maturing plants are removed before
planting seeds or setting plants for
succeeding crops. Corn or beans,
for example, may be started in
spaces made in radish or lettuce
rows, or between the rows. The
radishes or lettuce will then be har-
vested before the late-planted crops
need all the ground. Equally salts
factory results can be obtained from
the combination of other early and
late vegetables.

FOWLS RELISH GREEN STUFF
Mangels, Cabbage and Turnips Are
Excellent for Hens-Potatoes
Good When Boiled.

Nearly all the common vegetables
are rellshed by fowls and they should
be fed at regular intervals. Mangels
are easy to raise and keep well. Cab
bage is a good food. the hens like II
and 1t does not flavor the egg. Tur-
nips are an excellent vegetable for
fowls when grown right, stored and
cooked. Rape is an excellent green
food to plant In the runs. Potatoes
are good only when holled. AS rule,
they are too expensive to feed to, pouI-
try. Onions, when they can be had,
are an excellent feed. and like lettuce
are excellent for chicks. Silage may
be used, provided that only a small
quantity is fed at first until the hens
become thoroughly accustomed to IT

NAVY POSTERS MADE BY
NOTED PAINTERS

The committee on public infor-
nation has issued the following:
Many noted painters and illustra-
tors have made posters for the
Navy and Marine Corps that have
proved an effective aid in the re-
cruiting campaign. Among them are
Charles Dana Gibson, James Mont
gomery Flagg, Howard Chandler

Some of these artists receive
$1,000 to $4,000 for a single paint
ing or sketch of the type which they
have prepared for the Navy. All of
them have volunteered their SER
vices, and their posters were offered
to the Government as expressions
of patriotic spirit.
Poster sketches are now being

(By II. L. KEMPSTER, Missouri College

If, for no apparent reason, there is
a lack of thrift among your young
chicks, perhaps the cause is lice, or
chicks about the head for head lice.
Lice are more likely to be present on
hen-raised chicks. If lice are found,
grease the heads of the chicks with
lard which is free from salt. Do not
use lard and sulphur. Apply the lard
with the Anger, rubbing the head,
neck. under the wings and around the
vent. The brooding hen should also
be treated. One of the best methods
of exterminating lice on the mature
fowls is to rub q piece Of blue ONT
ment, the size of pea, into the skin
just beneath the vent, and also under
each wing. Do not daub 1t on, but
rub il well into the skin, as blue ONT
ment is very poisonous and will kill
the hen If she gets some of it into her
mouth.
If no lice are found, carefully exam
inc the intestincs of a dead chick for
intestinal parasites. such as tape
worms or round worms. II worms of
any kind are found, the chicks should
be treated and removed to fresh
ground where there are no worms in
the soil. AS long as the chicks remain
on the old runs the danger of contain
nation is always present.
Treatment for Parasites.
To treat for intestinal parasites feed
should be withheld for II hours, and
one of the following remedies given:
Powdered areca nut, 80 to As grains
for an adult bird.
Powdered areca nut, Is grains for
Immature chicks.
This can be mixed in a wet mash
and fed so that each gets an equal
amount. 1t can be fed to older birds
in capsules which can be forced down
the gullet.
Turpentine, one to three teaspoon
fuls, depending upon the age of the
bird, Is also effective. 1t can be made
less severe by mixing with an equal
amount of cottonseed oil, but If inef-
fective, should be used full strength.

REPLANT GARDEN SPACE

Now that radishes, lettuce, and,
in some. sections. peas, spinach. and
0ther early crops are being harvest
ed, home gardeners should be max
ing their preparations to utilize the
freed space by planting other crops,
say specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
In planning for these paintings,
the specialists suggest, it is well at
all tmies, but especially this year,
. to concentrate efforts on the pro-
duetion Of vegetables that have con-
siderable food value and on those
which may be stored in their natu-
raj condition, dried, or canned for
winter use. One of the important
crops that can be grown on the
freed ground is late Irish potatoes.
Navy beans furnish substantial
food which is easily stored, and
the present market prices make it
worth while in sections where they
thrive to replant space from which
crops have been harvested with
this legume.
Other vegetables having consider

The best method Of giving turpentine
is by forcing It through small fiex-
ible catheter that has been oiled and
is passed through the throat into the
crop.
Good results have been reported also
with the use of tobacco dust, using five
to ten grains to bird. This can also
be fed in a wet mash.
The drOppings containing the worms
should be burned or buried deep to
prevent the chickens from picking
them up.
DoIIar-snd-a-Half Hen.
There is profit in keeping a good
poultry flock. This was shown by u
flock of White Leghorn pullets at the
University of Missouri. From so to GO
birds were housed in an open front
poultry house with a yard 100 feet
square which was sowed to wheat in
the fall. This furnished green food in
the late fall and early spring and was
not charged against their feed bill.
In a years time the fowls consumed
1858 pounds of grain and 962 pounds
of mash. The total cost of the feed
was $66.27. In estimating this cost
the following prices per 100 pounds
were used: Wheat, $1.66; corn, SLIGO;
bran, $1.20; cOrnmeal, $1.75; shorts,
S1.40; and beef scraps, 1925. These
prices are higher than the feed would
bring if sold by the farmer, but at
that the flock returned a good profit.
They produced a total of S,O57 eggs
ut food cost of 101A cents dozen.
At the prevailing prices the eggs sold
for Sicily, thus giving a total profit
of $1,000.
At an average price of 23.4 cents
dozen the hens returned a profit OF II
dollar and half apiece above the cost
Of feed. Even at an average price of
20 cents a dozen the hens doubled the
value of the feed.
They were fed as scratch food a
mixture of two parts cracked corn and
one part wheat. The mash consisted
of equal parts of bran, shorts, corn
meal and beef scrap. Grit, oyster shell
and water were kept before the birds
all the time.

FOWLS FOR EGG PRODUCTION
Fowls That Do Not Lay by Time Of
Freezing Weather Usually Wait
Until Spring.

Are your pullets laying? Pullets
that do not begin to lay by the time
freezing weather sets in will usually
wait until spring. This means a dead
pOultryman cannot afford this loss If
he Is raising poultry for egg prOduc-
ton.
Pullets of the Mediterranean breeds
Matched not later than May 1, and
that have been reasonably well cared
for during the growing period will be
laying before early winter.
1t sometimes happens that force
of circumstances necessitates late
Matching, and 1t Is these pullets that
must be pushed to get them ready
to lay in the fall.
Feed a ration of high protein con.
tent, including such feed as beef scrap,
bran, middlings and oil meal. If
skim milk or buttermilk is available, 1t
will be of value. Give the birds free
range whenever 1t is possible. If they
must be confined supplement their ra-
ton with some green feed, such as
sprouted oats, green alfalfa, beets.
cabbage, etc. Birds fed such feeds rs
above, kept free from disease, lice
and mites, and given plenty Of ex-
ercise will develop amazingly.
There Is still some time before Sc
we're winter weather. Try forcing your
late pullets and see the effect 1t will
have on the winter egg basket.

GOOD TREATMENT FOR COLDS
Put Small Quantity Of Potassium Per-

If any of the birds develop colds, put
as much potassium permanganate as
will remain on the surface of a dime
into gallon Of water and keep this
mixture in their drinking water for
several days, or until the symptoms Of
the colds have disappeared. Remove
any sick birds from the flock as soon
as they are noted, and treat them in
coops by themselves, or kill and bury
them II they are not worth treating.
