than the general purpose breeds. The
average weight of the eggs of pen
of Leghorns during the first laying
year was LAP pounds pc rdozen as
against 1.53 to 1.5S pounds for the
other pens. However. Leghorns lay
ing eggs weighing 1.5O pounds per
dozen or even more, the specialists
say, have been selected and bred by
many poultrymen. An examination in
May, 1915. Of 500 eggs from three Leg
horn pens showed that 81 per cent
weighed more than two ounces each,
or 1.50 pounds to the dozen.
The value per dozen of the eggs
produced by the Leghorn hens was
from 1 to 3 cents less each year
than the eggs of general purpose hens.
This difference is due to the fact that
the general purpose breeds are better
winter layers than the Leghorns. while
the latter give a higher production
in the spring and summer. Very few
Leghorns become broody, which prob
ably materially affects their egg yield,
as compared with the general purpose
breeds. Better fertility in the eggs,
especially with stack confined to the
yards, is more often secured with the
Leghorns than with the general pur-
pose or any Of the heavier breeds.

Poultry owners who wish to obtain
satisfactory production of eggs dur
ing the winter should plan to give
their birds plenty Of feed. Just what
kind Of feed that can be supplied most
economically and which will keep the
birds in healthful. laying condition
is one of the poultry keepers princi-
pal problems. The Poultry Division
OF the United States Department Of
Agriculture has for some years been
conducting tests on substitute feeds
with laying hens. The poultry spe-
cialtsts have found. for example, that
by feeding q wheatless ration there is
q considerable saving in the cost OF
feed and the hens will produce as
many eggs as when wheat Is included.
Thirty Leghorn pullets to which this
wheatless ration was fed for " years
produced an average of 147.3 eggs a
hen for the pullet year. This COM
pares favorably with egg yields Sc
cured with other rations containing
wheat and, therefore, more expensive.
During the Is weeks of the second
| year the hens which were fed the
wheatless ration averaged 2S.5 eggs
per hen, us eggs per hen being pro-
duced in March. The same wheatless
ration fed to a pen of Buff Orping-
| ton pullets produced from the first
of November to the last Of March, SO
eggs a hen for the 20 weeks, making
the highest egg record for any one
of the large feeding pens of pullets in
the test. Two other pens, however,
were less than one egg behind this
| pen. The wheatless ration which was
used was as follows:
Scratch Mixture.
| 2 pounds cracked corn. l pound oats.
Dry Mash.
pounds corn meal. l pound beef
scrap.
! The scratch mixture was fed spar
! ingly, so that the hens ate about equal
parts of the mixture and of the dry
mash. The total grain consumption
of feed for the year was so pounds,
of which 26 pounds was scratch mix.
ture. Throughout the year it took as
/ pounds of feed to produce a dozen
eggs.
Substitutes for Wheat.
If the wheat is omitted from the
ration it is very essential to feed a
considerable proportion of beef scrap
or fish scrap in the mash. While
these feeds may seem high in price.
considering their value in egg produc-
ton. they are cheap poultry feeds. In
other experiments conducted by the
| Poultry Division if was found that
| for the first four months pullets fed
| a ration containing beef scrap pro-
duced an average of AS eggs, while
| those fed the same ration, with the
exception that the beef scrap was
omitted produced 1877 eggs.
These experiments, the poultry spe-
cialists say, prove that wheat is not
| essential to an egg-laying ration and
that excellent results can be secured
by using corn and oats as a scratch
mixture, provided this is fed with a
good mash containing % per cent
of beef or fish scrap.
While the birds should have plenty
to eat, they should always be eager
for each meal. If one-third of the
scratch grain furnished them is fed
in the morning and two-thirds at night

LEGHORNS9 PRODUCE EGGS
CAEApER

Leghorns produce eggs cheaper than
hens of the general-purpose breed
Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode
Island Reds, and Orpingtons. This
fact, which confirms the belief and
experience Of commercial poultry
farmers, was one of the results OBJ
tanned in a rather extensive feeding
test conducted by poultrymen of the
United Steates Department of Agri-
culture. Because they lay as many or
more eggs, eat only about 55 opunds
OF feed per head, as compared with
20 to IS pounds eaten by the general
purpose breeds, and because their egg
yield very materially exceeds that of
general purpose breeds during their
second and thir dlaying years, Leg
horns, the specialists say, undoubted-
ly are more profitable to keep for the
production of eggs only.
The Leghorns produce smaller eggs

JOHN BARRETT TELLS
 AFEW TRUTHS AT JUNEAU

With the country facing an oil and coal shortage for the coming year crude oil at Katalla, after gasoline has been extracted from it, is allowed to run waste into the sea, because of the conservation regulations which have tied up the resources of Alaska " said John Barrett, the townsite owner miner and property owner of Nc Carthy, Alaska, while in Juneau re, gently.
 There is but one patented claim there" he continued which was To, cated and improved before the conser- vation craze hit Alaska, and today from this claim is being manufactured a high grade gasoline which is sold to dealers to the westward.
 What the government ought to do as a war emergency measure is to place drilling machinery in the Ka- talla oil fields and develop the oil fields there and make use of it, or else make the terms liberal enough for capital to take hold at once. Fuel oil is needed now to help win the war. If we run short of coal and oil and lose the war thereby the Alaska coal and oil fields will not be worth 30 cents to any future generation of Americans, but will be handed out as a contribution to German militarism.
 "The government needs all the boat tonnage, it needs all of th6 rail car rying capacity and other means which are now being used to bring coal and oil to Alaska, instead of allowing Alas kans to mine their own coal and de- velop their oil and thus save the ton mage and furnish a necessary war material Now is the time to act To- morrow it may be too late"
