GETTING RID OF
FEATHER EATING

Two things we have found to be
more aggravating than feather-pull
ing hens. One is q COW that sucks
herself, and the other is a hen that
deposits an egg in the nest and then
deliberately devours 1t. Extermina.
ton is the only cure worth while for
the last two, but by good manage
ment the former may, for the most
part, be remedied.
Rarely do we find hen ON the
~anGe that troubles the plumage OF
her mates. Neither are such cases
plentiful with stock housed under
good conditions. The mischief al.
most invariably begins with flock
that is housed in crowded, ofttimes
unsanitary quarters, with no accom-
modations for exercise, and in the
absence of anything better-or worse
to ODDLY picks at the loose feather
of q fellow chicken, and the basis of
a lot of trouble is laid.
One feather eater in flock and
the others quickly follow suit. With
In few weeks you may think your
hens are in second mott" so bare
have become their backs. 1t seems
so much easier for bad habit to get
sown broadcast than good ones.
The best plan Of all is to watch
the hens, find the ring leader and
rule, the hen that robs her mate of
her covering or lays in wait for the
scraps that others drop in their
leaps for suspended cabbages or
rabbits, is little more than a doubt
full ornament any way-and "orna-
ments" are not Sin 1t" these days.
No doubt several flocks are fairly
suffering for meat in their ration,
and a plentiful supply would satisfy
this craving and to some extent
check the vice. Then, too, they
should be kept busy. Unless they
have been accustomed to budding in
a corner so long that they are alb
solutely Indifferent, chickens would
rather scratch than not. Even the
mite of a chick, when given its first
feed, digs its ridiculous little toes
into paper that hasn't a speck of
scratching material in it. 1t is ma
ture, and while this state has been
improved. we may we'll take our cue
from that which Is instructive in
fowls.
One very successful poultryman
applied an ointment to the plumage
of his fowls that was composed of
vaseline mixed with quinine or aloes.
Another says that to boil tobacco
and apply the liquid Is successful
for hens. A hen soon discontinues
such unsavory doses in disgust. This
would be a pretty good sized job in a
large flock but 100 chickens are
worth twice as much as 50-and
there you are!

KEEP IMPLEMENTS ALL INSIDE

One of the best ways known for
conserving national resources is to
take better care of farm machinery
and see that as much Of it as posi-
BILE Is kept under shelter this win
ter, say the agricultural engineering
men at the Iowa experiment station.
Scattered over the state of Iowa
there are perhaps millions Of dollars
worth of farm machinery standing
out in the weather. This used to be
bad enough but 1t is worse now. Last
year the cost of farm implements in
creased 80 per cent. The prices for
1918 are easily 80 per cent higher
than 1917.
Two representatives from Iowa
State college recently drove for a
day through one of Iowas most
prosperous counties. On every farm
passed during the day there was at
least one farm machine rusting
away. On many farms almost the
whole equipment from the tractor
down to small cultivator would be
without any shelter.
On one farm of $40 acres these
men found by actual count about
$4,000 worth of machinery rusting
away. Implement dealers say that
$3.50 will be conservative price for
what reapers will sell next year. Yet
this man had four-representing an
investment of 81, 0O0--standing in
his barnyard in various stages of
dilapidation.
1t really would be a patriotic en-
terprise, in the light of the steel de-
mand, say the experiment station
men, for some one to gather up and
sell all the old iron now rusting
away on the farms. There are lit
orally thousands of tons of it that
is not fit any more to be used in
farming.
