Cheap feeds, such as straw and corn
slower, have a place in the horse ra-
ton. For growing colts and for horses
doing hard work these rougrdges may
be fed in limited quantities, supple
mentary to II more nutritious ration.
A caution Is timely in regard to feed
ing bulky roughages low in nutrients.
Horses have comparatively small
=, stomachs and their digestive anatomy
is in no way suited to handle a great
bulk of feed. Little nourishment is
derived from "a pound of such rough
age. and in maintaining a hard-work-
ing animal too great n bulk of feed
would necessarily be taken into the
body. 1t is therefore desirable to COM
bine with a limited quantity of slower
or straw sufficient legume hay, grain,
or other nutritious feed to meet the in
dividual requirements of the horse.
A small portion of some laxative feed,
such as silage, roots, bran, or alfalfa,
may well be included in a ration on
timing a large proportion of corn
slower or straw.
Cottonseed meal has met with con-
siderable disfavor among horse feed
ers, but 1t may be fed In limited guam

AS a supplement to cornmeal for
growing and fattening pigs the Wis
consin station found that ground soy
beans proved about 10 per cent supe-
rior to wheat middlings, figuring the
cost of the feeds as the same. The In
diana station compared rations of two
parts Of cornmeal and one part of
soy-bean meal with cOrnmeal and
wheat middlings in equal proportions
and with five parts of cornmeal and
one part of tankage for pork produc-
ton. The soy-bean ration produced
the largest daily gains, and this with
the smallest quantity of feed consumed

The advantage of culling the poul-
try discriminating the Improbable
layers-is shown by a number of re-
ports being received by the United
States department of agriculture from
county agents who have conducted
culling demonstrations. In many in
stances the culled birds were retained
and fed for a few weeks in order to
demonstrate to the farmers the advan-
tage of proper culling. "Culling drives"
supervised by county agents were con-
Quoted by poultry raisers in many To-
calities. In one community in Mis-
souri, the nonproducers in more than
300 farm flocks were taken out in one
day and sent to market. In making a
report to the department of agricul-
ture on the culling work in Missouri,
FL. e. Cosby, state extension poultry
husbandman, says:
Saving in Grain.
"Miss Nellie McGhee, emergency
home demonstration agent of Green
county, together with County Agent
e. A. Cockefein, report that 16,607
birds were culled out of 40, 169-about
40 per cent. These 16,607 were sold,
making a saving in grain in the form
of $%9,64O.S0." The interest on the
money received for the sale of the
culls would bring the total saving to
about $4,000. Mr.. Cosby further says:
ITO show the efficiency and accuracy
Of local leaders the following will
suffice: From one flock of rs chick
ems, % were culled out. Only one egg
was laid in the culled pen in four days.
From another flock of 200 chickens, go
were culled. The pen of culls pro-
duced only two eggs in three days.
Fifty-two birds were culled from a
flock of So hens, leaving only six good
ones. In four days only n egg was
laid in the pen of go culls."
One county agent reports on two
Hocks. There were 142 hens in the
first flock, 105 of which were selected
to make up the winter pen of layers,
while 81 were put in the Gull pen and
fed the same ration as the others for
two weeks. During this period the
hens that were selected for winter lay
ers laid $40 eggs, OF an average of
about 6 eggs each, while Is eggs were
produced in the other pen; less than
one egg for every two hens.
In the second flock there were 90
hens, 81 of which were retained and
25 put in the culled class. In one
week the 81 good birds produced 1877
eggs, while In the pen of % discarded
hens only eight were produced.
Cooperative Marketing.
A "cull the flock" campaign was
held In nine Mississippi counties this
fall, and as a result 10. 1872 birds weigh
Ing 25,900 pounds were marketed.
These birds came from 1,349 fiocks. If
they had been retained throughout the
winter, they would have been fed at a
loss. Through the help of county
agents these birds were sold by a CO.
operative plan and brought $5.69S. If
they had been sold by the individual
owners they would have brought $4,-

their superior strength and vitality,
qualities so essential to layers If they
are to stand up under the severe strain
of heavy laying. Under war conditions
it is imperative that the poor produc-
ers be welded out; the Stacker hen
must GO. Wedding out the poor hens
gives those left more room and a bet
ter chance. Where trap nesting Is
practiced, culling is a comparatively
simple process.
Culling should be continuous
throughout the year. This continuous
culling should consist of wedding out,
when discovered, any hen which is
sick, which is very thin or emaciated,
or which shows evidences of nenpro-
duction, weakness, or poor vitality.
The whole flock should also be given
a careful and systematic culling at
some one time. The hens should be
handled individually and gone over
carefully with the object of dividing
them into two lots, one the better pro-
ducers and the other the poorer pro-
ducers. From the better producers it
is also desirable to- pick out as many

breeders. Band or otherwise mark
these hens so that eggs from them
only will be saved for Matching. Mar
ket those selected as the poor pro-
ducers. Save for laying and breeding
those selected as the better producers.
When a single systematic culling is
made, the best time to do this is in
August or September. At this time it
is easier to form a fairly close esti-
mate of the relative value of a hen as
an egg producer and to weed out the
/ nonproducers. Hens which show indi-
cations of laying at this time are those
which on the average have been the
better producers for the year. 1t must
be remembered, too, that the better
producers during the first laying year
are those which will be the better pro-
ducers in subsequent years. Hens
showing Indications of having been
good producers throughout the year
should be retained for the next year
regardless of their age, but relatively

their third laying ear if of the lighter
l. eeds such "a the Leghorn. Addi-
tional culling during July is also de-
sirable in order to eliminate hens
which have started to mott and have
stopped laying.
In going over the entire flock for
the purpose of culling there are a
number of points or characteristics
which should be given special atten-
ton in selecting the layers from the
n%onlayers. Where the different char
acteristics, or several of them in the
case of any Individual, agree as indi-
eating good production or poor pro-
duction, selection is comparatively ac-
curate. Where they do not agree,
judgment must be used in deciding
which should be given the greatest
weight. The following are the main
| points to consider:
Sickness and lack of vigor are
usually indicated by listlessness, mac.
tivity, tendency to stay on or under
the roost during the day, poor appe-
tite, dull eye, dark Dr. blush color of
comb, long toe nails, snaky or crow
head, and the tendency to go to roost
early in the evening and to be one of
the last to leave the roost in the
morning.
