Platinum Wines Of Russia

FOR POULTRY
GROWERS

Don't forget that the hen is under
unnatural conditions during the win
ter, and that summer is ideal weather
for egg production. Try to initiate
this condition as nearly as possible.
| Do everything within your power to
make the bird comfortable. Don't
merely house her; give her a home and
care for her.
One reason why many poultry keep
crs fail to get eggs is because they
fail to interest their birds. BY that
is meant they fail to give them suffi-
cicnt litter on the floor and to feed
them their grain in this, so as to keep
them working for it all day. Keep
their minds as we'll as their bodies en-.
gagged, and the hens will he happy,
contented and will produce more eggs.
The ideal method for feeding is to give
them a little feed frequently in the
litter, to keep them constantly alert
and active. The feeding of a little
stimulant, such as onion tops or occa-
sionally a feed Of hot, wet mash, or a
change to some sprouted oats, fresh,
green-cut bone, or in fact anything
that the bird relishes, acts as an appe-
tizer, and not only is effective in pro-
ducing more eggs, but also actually
develops the interest of the caretaker
or feeder to the point that he will give
his birds other care. Know the indi.
viduals in your flock and try to satisfy
their needs. Remember, they are un.
der artificial conditions during the
winter.

War Has Given Women Chance

After u,any years spent in demand

Inns State of things is usually present

CROW IN CELLAR ALL CRAB LAND
Asparagus and Rhubarb Can Be
Planted Now.
They Do Not Have To Have
Sunlight To Mature.

Manhattan, Feb 9.-Garden prod
uce may be raised in the farmhouse
cellar to good advantage now, ac-
cording to NJ. f. Ahearn. professor of
landscape gardening in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
In raising rhubarb the rootss are
dug and subjected to freezing, rain,
and snow. Then they are planted in
mellow earth in a frost proof cellar
or removed to a shed where they are
covered to prevent thawing. The
average temperature of the cellar
should be 40 degrees, and the soil wet
and muddy.
The plants that grow in darkness
will have a stalk from IL to 20 inches
high. Most of this growth is stalk
with little leaf. The stalks are deli
cately colored and have good flavor.
The plants produced in darkness
grow much more swiftly than those
grown in light.
Grow Asparagus, Too.
When raising asparagus in the cell
lar it is best to use two-year old
crowns. After the crowns have been
frozen they should be placed on the
cellar floor in bedding of loose soil.
Cover the crowns to depth of one
inch. The soil should be moist all of
the time but never allowed to be-
come drenched.
For the first 10 days after the
crowns are placed for forcing the
temperature should be kept at from
As to SO degrees. After this period a
temperature of So to 60 degrees is
most satisfactory. A temperature of
rs to 80 degrees produces a rapid soft
growth, but gives shoots of good
quality.
In approximately six weeks after
bedding, cutting may be started, and
continued until the crowns are ex-
hauSted. As soon as the crowns are
exhausted they should be removed
and a new supply set in. In this way
a continuous supply can be had.
