MAKE HENS WORK FOR LIVING
To Prevent Fowls From Becoming Too
Fat Ii Is Good Plan TO Make
Them Scratch for Food.

To prevent the hens from becoming
tat while consuming enough food for
their support and for production they
must be made to work for the larger
share Of the food received by scratch
ing in litter; If this fails to accom-
plish the desired result, then the food
is not balanced Too much grain may
be allowed, and the remedy is TO reduce
the proportion OF grain and give more
reproducing food The hens should
not be Overfed at any one meal Give
q moderate allowance in the morning
OF mixed grain; then let them out on
grass or rye pasture The allowance
OF green food. such as cabbage. turnIp
tops and roots, is not because OF the
nutritious material contained in such
foods, as they really are OF little value,
but they perform excellent service
from a dietary standpoint

MAINTAIN ROADS WITH DRAG
No Better or Cheaper Way of Keeping
Highways in Good Order Than
by Using implement

Road dragging is so simple an under
taking, providing the road to be drag
ged is first graded, drained and shaped
properly, that a summary of its bene-
fits cannot be presented too often.
writes George B. Harrison in Farmers
Mail and Breeze. Anyone can make a
drag and even boy can keep q piece
of road in good shape with the proper
instruction at the beginning. A 10
inch or Pinch log between 8 and Q
feet long or two by - planks with
2 by 6 reinforcing strips of the same
length. four cross sticks, a chain,
boards for the platform and a metal
wearing strip are certainly procurable
anywhere.
The theory in road dragging which
has proved practicable for road i'm
prOvement is to smooth and shape ,up
the puddled earth of a road to fill the
ruts and holes and force the water off
the roadway. ''Puddled" earth on a
road is the wet earth which has been
worked up by traffic so that it is dense
and when cOmpacted will not let the
water seep away. If this compacting
is done without any direction ruts and
holes appear and hold the water and
make bad road. But If the puddled
earth be spread smoothly over the sur
face of the road with somewhat of a
rounded effect it dries firm and hard,
