WOMEN OF NAVY LEAGUE
LEARN ABOUT CHICKENS

fcraeiai Star Bulletin Cor-Hspondencsl
COLLEGE OF HAWAII. April 81 -
Prof Clark's third animal husbandry
lecture TO the Navy League women
was entitled The Care of the Chick.
He said. In most cases the care Of
the chick is more difficult than hatch
ing. If proper food and shelter and
protection from enemies are provided.
hen-hatched chicks require no further
attention on your part. The hen does
the rest. However, incubator chicks
must be fed, exercised and warmed.
The first two requirements are more
readily provided than the last. In most
parts of the territory no artificial heat
is required. Small chicks should never
re allowed out when the grass is wet.
Il disease is to be prevented, they
should never be allowed to run over
foul ground; all things: breeders,
hoyers, feed, must be kept clean.
Concerning their food, chickens are
emnivorous, and do best If FED grain,
green food Vegetables, and animal
food. VIII live without animal food
hut do best with II. In regard to
heating their food, we should not aim
to improve nature, but rather aid ma
ture in every way possible It may be
best to cook meat or animal foods for
the sake of sterilization, but Il Is
doubtful. When eggs are given as
food, they need not be cooked. for
cooking lessons food value OF most
feeds. An ideal mash to be given
about three times week is composed
Of one part bran, one part ground oats,
'cne-Quarter part ground corn (not corn
meal), one-quarter part meat scraps.
and one-quarter part dried milk-if
fresh or sour milk is not available. A
little fresh meat scraps fed daily,
chopped or ground by meat grinder,
is good, unless plentiful supply of
insects is available to the chicks. II
you have garden or growing crops
of any sort, give the chicks access to
them. Crops grow insects, and in.
sects grow chicks. Small chicks can
never damage the crops" ~
The first lecture next week to the
Navy League will be given by Dr. II
lingworth, the college entomologist.
