of Strength.

The selection Of the b~eSt-laying hens
may be made in several ways. # O

egg producers and the pullets have the
same formation of the body it may be
reasonable to expect that the pulle1s
will also be fine egg producers. There
is, however, II almost certain sign
that may be used in selecting laying
hens. Look for a full, ~well-Geyel0ued
breast and crop. showing d large pock-
ct in which to carry the food sunpiy.
This gives assurance of strength and
vigor, and the ability to consume a
sufficient amount of food to sustain
the body and produce the eggs.

sumo Il large amount of food and the
body and abdominal proportions to
handle and transfer it into the general

To Prevent Food Remaining in Crop

The chickens must be starved q

WASTING

The following editorial recently ap-
peared in n of the leading dailies of
the middle West under the caption of
"Foodstuffs.'
The time is here when farm crops
u be used for food; when the prod
ucts of the land will not suffice to feed
the people of the world. To use for
making liquors the grain which is need
ed to FEED the people is an economic
crime and an offense against humanity.
This is the broad view of the beverage
liquor question. 1t is outrageous to
think of hundreds of thousands OF hu-
man beings being insufficiently nour-
lShed, scantily fed, while the crops are
being taken for the manufacture of
booze. If the people will think OF
the liquor question from this point of
view there will be small delay in bring
ing about the adjustments which shall
not only cut off the evils of the liquor
traffic, but also will stop the misappro-
priation of the foodstuffs of the people
to stock the saloons with poison

The Toulouse is the giant of the
goose family. 1t is a native of France.
Its ordinary weight is from 10 to 20
pounds, but it is not uncommon to
find specimens weighing from % to
80 pounds. This is the typical gray
goose, but beneath and behind these
are white areas in the plumage.
1t is said by those who have had
experience with this breed that young
geese during the first year lay from

lay from % to 40.
The Embden is IA popular breed in
some places. The body of the birds

formation. In size it is the same as
standard for the Toulouse. though it
is said a smaller number of Embden

FEEDING WILL DOUBLE EGGS
Average Hen in Missouri Lays Sixty
Three Eggs AnnuaIIy-Scantily
Fed Hen Is Poor Investment.
(By H. L. kempster. Missouri Colleg
Of Aprjr11t1rp

(By H. L. kempster. Missouri College
of Agriculture.)
According to the United States CEN
sus, Missouri's 21.000,000 hens lay ILL.,
100000 dozen eggs annually. If this
is true, the average hen lays about 63
Eggs a yea This is a poor record.
One reason why hens are not more
productive is because usually they are
half fed. 1t is false economy to ex-
pect them to pick their living from
the leavings of other stock. Many
farmers admit that they feed their
hens nothing during the summer In
so doing, they are saving feed but los
ing money.
A productive hen requires from 30
to so pounds of feed a veal. If she
gets only 40 to so pounds. she will
simply satisfy her body requirements.
She will not lay eggs. The ~scantily
fed hen is a poor investment. 1t is
only the literally fed hen that Yields
the profit.
Farmers should keep dry ground
feed, such as a mixture of bran. shorts
and cornmeal, in hoppers before the
lens at all times. Either sour milk or
butter milk should be given AS a drink.
Crushed limestone or oyster shell
should be before the hens all the time.
and the hens should go to rooSt with
full crops.
One correspondent wrote that after
feeding according to the directions of
the poultry department of the Uni
versity of Missouri his hens laid twice
as many eggs. These directions are
given in circular &c, entitled Feeding
for Egg Production which is diStrib-
uted free.

The PEOPLES Physiuue,

Some consideration should be given
to the effect that the change in loco
motion will make upon the physique of
the people; for wen the farmers are
10Y using the automobile, and the
horse is used for little but draft puE:-
poses. Will not the race become lax
and nerveless that Tolls upon soft cush-
ions, protected in every way from the
hard joltings of the road? More and
more, machinery is brought into serv-
ice, and less and less physical exertion
is required in the carrying on of open
air occupations. Man touches a but
ton, and a gas engine does the rest.
This makes things easier; but the
question is whether it confers an actual
benefit in the end.-Mobile Register.

one of them found a splendid place in
