HINTS FOR THE POULTRY GROWERS

In addition to the grain and the table scraps in feeding chickens for meat and eggs, it is well to feed a dry mash. This dry mash is composed of various ground grains and is placed In a mash hopper or box from which the hens can help themselves. The advantage of feeding such a mash is that the hens always have access to feed, and this tends to make up for any faulty, inexperienced, or insuff1- cient feeding. The hens do not like the dry mash so we'll that they are likely to overeat, but it will supply source of feed in case they are not getting enough. The dry mash also provides a suitable medium for feeding beef scrap, a certain amount of which may or may not be necessary, depend ing upon the amount of meat ScraTs available in the table waste. If the hens show a tendency to become over fat it may be desirable to close the mash hopper during q part of the day and allow them access to it only dur ing a certain period, preferably the afternoon. A good dry mash is com posed of equal parts by weight of cornmeal, wheat bran, wheat mid dlings, and beef scrap. Another good mash is composed of three parts by weight of cornmeal and one part beef scrap. Still a third mash, which has given excellent results, is composed of one pound of wheat bran, one pound of wheat middings, 6.5 pounds of beef scraps, and 16.5 pounds of cornmeal. hn' in 6ru Is usually the most expensive ingred- tent, but it is a very essential part of the mash and very efficient for egg production. It should not be elimi- mated or reduced unless the quantity of meat in the table scraps is consid- erahle or unless some other product can be substituted for 1t. Fish scrap. when available, may replace the beef scrap, or cottonseed meal can be used to replace One-half the beef scrap in the mash. No attempt should be made to replace more than half the beef scrap with cottonseed meal, as the re suits in egg production and in the quality of the eggs will be unsatisfac- tory.
 Green cut bone can often be pur. chased from the butcher. This ma terial when procured fresh makes an excellent substitute for beef scrap. It should be purchased in small Quanti- ties, as it can not be kept fresh for any length of time and when spoiled may cause severe bowel trouble. It is best fed in a trough not eftener than every other day, allowing about one- half ounce per bird. Should severe or continued looseness of the bowels fol low the feeding of green cut bone it should be discontinued or the quanti- ty reduced. ~s~ -..4s- .es.z... .s. sEz.

"Buddeized Milk" Can Be
 Kept TWenty-0ne Days,
 Two Physicians Declare

There is way of preserving milk for 21 days without spelling it in any way. Health Commissioner John Dill Robertson and Dr. w. A. Evans. for mer commissioner, testified to this be- fore the Chicago milk commission.
 It's called "Buddeized milk" and it's treated to a 1 per cent solution of peroxide. ana then heated to 12O de- greas Fahrenheit.
 The use of this milk would not only bring down the price, Doctor Robin son testified, but it would certainly prevent any possibility of a milk fam inc when the railroads are storm bound.
 The use of the "Buddeized" milk, the two doctors said, permits wholesale buying by the housewife, and permits the bringing of milk from greater dis tances. It will permit a city to get a price that is determined on a butter fat and cheese factory basis-which is much less, they say, than the present prices.

Illinois Professor Says . Acres Must Yield Double
 Farmers to Win the War

"We must speed up the farm, mal1- ing every unproductive acre produc. tive and every productive acre more productive" says Prof. Ten Eyck of Illinois. ITO double the acre yield on many fields now being tiled" he says, "fs possible by giving the proper atten- tiOn to the simple Fundamentals of crop production, such as drainage, seed selection, more timely and thorough tillage, the proper rotation of crops and the fertilization of the soil.
 Fertilization of the soil means the use of any available plantfood such as manure, legumes and commercial fer tiliZers. All of these forms should be used this year. The same raw ma terials used in making fertilizers such as nitrate of soda, potash and sul- phuric acid are used in war munitions. It is also difficult to ship many farm supplies on account of the freight car shortage. For these reasons all spring supplies should be ordered now"
 Upon the farmer rests in large measure the final responsibility of win ming the war in which we are now in- volved," says the Birmingham (Ala.) Sentinel; therefore, the man who tills the soil and supports the soldier in the field and the family at home is render ing as noble and patriotic a service as the man who bears the brunt of bat tlp"

No Connection Between the
 Weather and Moons Changes

People who rely on the moon as a weather indicator (writes a core spondent) must have very short memo ries, for accurate comparisons prove conclusively that there Is no connec- tion whatever between the weather and the moons changes of phase.
 Professor Schuster analysed q whole century's weather records, and, as result, was unable to trace any lunar period in them. Several authorities are agreed, however, that there is a tendency for clouds to disperse as a full moon comes to the meridian of any place; but 1t is far cry from that to the definite belief that the weather changes with a change in the lunar phases.
 P, These changes, of course, can be pre- dicted for years in advance with per feet accuracy. and if the weather de pended on them. weather forecasting would be the simplest of all the Ecl- ences, instead of the most difficult.
