CHICKENS AT HOME

A yard surrounded by a FIVE
foot fence will, under most con-
ditions. keep chickens at home.
If the hens show a tendency to
fly over such a fence, the flight
feathers of one wing should be
clipped. A fence made of woven
wire is preferable to a fence
made of board or other material.
A board should not be used ut
the top Of a wire fence, as this
gives the hens visible place to
alight and tends to teach them
to fly over. The larger the yard
which can be provided the more
cOntented the hens will be. It
not only gives them greater OPP
portunity to exercise, but often
makes it possible to maintain a
sod on the yard, which is advis-
able.

SAYS SNAKES ARE PATRIOTIC
Truthful Fisherman Can Prove His
Assertion by Incident in Which
He Figured.

1t seems that prominent nimrod of
Ftttsffeld was fishing the famous Kon-
kapcr pool in Mill river, and the fish
were not biting good. He threw his
bait into the water. rested his pole on
the ground and sat down to rest. While
% doing he took IN Ocarina from his
pocket and began playing. Presently

This is desirable not only for the pur-
pose of eliminating noise, but also to
save the feed that would be eaten by
the male and for the reason that the
eggs produced after the male is dis

eggs are incapable of chick develop

times and became convinced and is

Grass clippings are an excellent
green feed for chickens.
Even as few hens as six or eight
should produce eggs enough, where
used economically, for family Of
four or five persons throughout the en-
tire year, except during the melting
period Of the fall and early winter.

Rural Clubs Helm.

,Women's rural clubs have done much
to further the employment of trained
workers for the counties, such as home
demonstration agents, county nurses
and county social service workers.
The state leader of home demonstra-
ton agents in Mississippi has said that
the women's clubs in that state have
been constant and earnest supporters
OF county extension work in home
economics. They have given financial
aid, used their influence to secure apr
preparations, bought canning club
products and given the work a promi-
nent place on their programs.

soon as enough eggs have been OBJ
tanned for Matching.
Remember that eggs produced by
the backyard flock cost very little, as
the fowls are fed largely upon waste
materials.
For the farmer who does not keep
geese, ducks and turkeys, the chicken
hen is a source Of profit in the way Of
egg production and the sale of market
fowls.
