CHICKS on A GRAIN RATION
Superior Method for Forcing Growth

Mixture for Mash.

Chicks do well on a grain ration.
but they do a great deal better when
once they are started on a wet-mash
ration and are fed alternately two
feeds of wet mash per day with three
feeds Of grain. the latter being given
morning, noon and night and the wet
mash being given about ten in the
morning and three in the afternoon.
For forcing growth and maturing
the cockerels for market as quickly
as possible such a method Of feeding
is far superior to the ordinary straight
grain ration method. The following
mixture makes very palatable mash:

CONSTANT SUPPLY OF WATER

Fresh clean water is kept before the
chicks constantly, and is kept clean
by using tin can from which the
top has been melted with an opening
made in the open end three-fourths
inch long (high) and one-half inch
wide. The can is filed and inverted
in a common earthen flower-pot sau-
Ger (open end downward), making an
automatic fountain which is raised one

the brooder or coop. II the fountain Is
used with hens. some way must be pro-
vided to keep the hens from knocking

have been growing In favor ever since.
They are good foragers. excellent lay
ers, and the hens are docile and make
the best of settlers and mothers though
they are not persistently broody. The
chicks are very hardy, mature early
and begin laying younger than many
others. They lay as good all winter
when eggs bring high prices.
The standard weight of the cock Is
S1k pounds, the cockerel ~ pounds,
the hen 6h and the pullet 5 pounds.
They have long, deep chests, meaty
bodies, yellow skins and are free from
black pin-feathers, making them good
fowls for market or table use. Their
meat has a fine sweet taste. Their
beautiful color and fine carriage make
them a good fancier's fowl.

FATAL DISEASE OF TURKEYS
and Close Confinement Are
Causes Of eIaekhead.

Some authorities claim that over
feeding and close combining cause the
fatal disease Of blackhead. and when
poults are crowded In their feeding
liver soon enlarges, becomes diseased
and death Is the only result.
Various other sources are given as
the causes Of the blackhead in tur-

the youngsters be kept on new ground,
away from the other domestic fowls,
free from wet and dampness, and fed
carefully so as not to weaken or strain
their digestive organs.

DRIED EGGS TO
u. S. FROM CHINA

Imports of eggs products this year have amount
ed to about 100000 pounds, valued on the aver
age at about Is cents pound. These products
are imported chiefly from Japan and China and
include eggs that have been dried frozen or DOW
dered They are used In this country principally
by bakers In the manufacture of various kinds of
pastry.
The consumption of Asiatc egg products in this
country has greatly increased in recent years. and
therefore the conditions under which they are
prepared become of greater interest to the public.
The operation Of a model plant at Shanghai Is de-
scribed follows
THE eggs received at the door Of the fac
tory in baskets containing approximately 1000
eggs, and as the factory offers better prices for
choice eggs 1t is securing the highest class Of egg
produced within a circle Of probably a 1OOmile
radius. The eggs are brought into the examining
over and all cracked otherwise damaged eggs
are separated. The eggs then candled by
Chinese, who pass them before the Gambling lamps
at the rate of 500 hour. The handling rooms
are kept in temperature not exceeding So degrees
Fahrenheit the range Of temperature in the build
ing, used both for freezing and for drying eggs
being from zero to upward of 100 degrees Fahren-
heit In the freezing and drying rooms respectively
From the Gambling rooms the fresh eggs with
unbrOken shells are taken to the breaking room
which In point Of sanitary appliances and atten-
ton to details Of personal hygiene scarcely Is sur
passed by the operating room Of a hospital In
fact the general effect of the ROOM aside from ts
low temperature, Is that of a well-ordered hos.

nurses where the ordinary hospital would have but
one. The factory now employs 100 GIRLS each of

which is the rule of the cotton mills and silk fla
lures of Shanghai 1t can pick and choose in its
labor that the type of girl employed in the egg
breaking room is far above the standard Of any
other Chinese factory, and Q composite picture Of
them all probably would come nearer the Chinese
Idea of feminine beauty than any other 100 girls
that can be found In Shanghai
AS the workers enter In the morning they are
dressed in freshly sterized clothing furnished BY
the factory, and after their nails are manicured
they are allowed to proceed to the workroom.
The breaking room Is solid concrete and is
sterized each day as carefully as the operating
room Of q hospital. The girls seated on metal
stools at low zinc tables Before each of them II
curious appliance which mechanically separates
the white Of the egg from the yolk. The girl takes
egg from the can into which they have been
counted by the Gamblers, and with the right hand
cracks 1t on the bar Of the separating machine
The breaking is then finished by dexterous move
ment of the fingers, which permits the egg to drop
into a shallow cup, where the yolk Is caught and
the white allowed to drain of the sides.
The drying room is described embodying all
the latest features in the sanitary handling Of this
product. The air used In the drying process II

egg yoks whites come out Of the dryer In f1ake9
which allowed to cool to temperature slightly

to the packing room. where 1t Is placed In boxes
made ready for shipment.
For the freezing Of eggs the separation and
