Time Neededto
Fatten Poultry

The question is often asked: How
long does 1t take to fatten poultry
properly?
The time required to fatten chickens
and other poultry for prime market
finish depends largely upon what kinds
Of feeds are given and the range Of
the birds during the fnttening period.
If the birds are allowed to run at
large and range freely the fattening
period Is much longer, and in some
cases with wide range the birds will
never become in prime market condi-
ton, no matter how literally fed. The
reason for this is thnt the birds in
walking and roaming over wide areas
take too much exercise, and feed that
under other conditions would 20 to
form flesh and fat goes to furnish
muscular energy, which is lost 30 far
as fattening is concerned.
In the case of turkeys, which are
semiwild birds, limited range for the
birds is necessary, especially in early
and late fall, when insects, wild seeds.
green clover and grasses are still to be
secured. Turkeys will grow and take
on flesh as long as these wild feeds on
the open range can be secured freely.
However, as cold weather comes on it
is best to supply turkeys with corn and
other feeds they will eat close to the
barn and poultry quarters, 80 that they
will roam as little as possible as the
marketing period approaches. They
will not bear confinement and forced
feeding like other kinds of poultry. In
very close confinement they will worry
of more flesh and fat than they will
put on, as a rule.
With chickens, ducks and geese 1t Is
economical to confine them closely and
feed heavily a few days before mar
keting. The confined birds should
have all they will possibly eat of ptxed
grain, or ground grains and water.
The best method is to feed a mixture
of ground grains and skim milk. Birds
fattened this way in close confinement
are known as "milk-fed" poultry, and
such when in prime condition COM
mand the highest market prices. The
time required for fattening is from one
week to ten days, after which time the
birds will not gain in weight and
should be sold Immediately.

DVNsK IS STRATEGIC POINT
One Of RussIa's Best Fortified cities.
Now Prominent on the Russo-osr-
man Firinn Line.

Dvinsk, one Of Russia's strongest
fortified cities, which is now prac-
tically on the Russo German firing
line, is described in a war geography
bulletin issued by the National Geo
graphic society, which says:
"With a population of 0,000, in
cluding 10000 Jews, Dvinsk is .
city Of prime Importance to Russia,
for it virtually controls the whole
valley of the River Dvina, upon
whose right bank it is situated, 11o
miles (135 miles by river) southeast
of Riga.
'eNot only is Dvinsk important as
strategic river point but as thriv-
ing railway center. It is the juno
ton point for the great arteries Of
commerce running from Riga to
Smolensk and from Petrograd to
Wilma. There is also an important
railroad to Libau. Dvinsk is 332
miles by rail southwest of Petrograd.
'Dvinsk is an important agricul-
tural center. 1t is also big timber
market, and its flourishing indus
tries before the war included flour
mills, breweries, match and tobacco
factories, tanneries, brick and tile
works.
During Napoleon's Russian cam
paign in 1912 Marshal Oudinot tried
in vain to capture the bridgehead at
Dvinsk, but the honor of taking the
city was reserved for Macdonald q
few weeks later"
