Quires more food than flock passing

To insure maximum production at
the least cost n good plan is to fur

to 1t. and in the morning and evening
give two or three pounds of scratch
grains to each hundred birds. Feed the
grains in deep litter so as to encour-

solid food is required to sustain the
muscular action of the gizzard, and Ia
prevent compaction.
AS might be supposed. ground feed
passes through the Eizzard much quick :
er than whole grains, and this spares
the Gizzard considerable work. But
the point to remember is this: II the
Gizzard is spared too much it soon loses
it's efficiency. and thereafter the food
will not be thoroughly diEested, which
is both tax on the fowls health
and waSteful OF food. In short. fowls
must be fed enough hard grain to
maintain the giz.ard and all other
organs In their normal state.
The crushing and grinding process
in the Sizzard is not it's only function.
The food is partially dieested in this
organ. and to accomplish this dges-
ton the food must remain in this part
OF the digestive tract for a certain

This is mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating too
rapidly or two much, or of food not
suited to your digestive organs. If
you will eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for supper, you will
more than likely avoid the sour stom-
ach without taking any medicine
whatever. When you have sour
stomach take one of Chamberlain's

FORMER GERMAN
EMPRESS JOINS
HUSBAND IN EXILE
Augusta Victoria Endeavors
to Avoid Identification on
Trip to Holland; Ap-
pears in High Spirits.

London, Nov. 29.-The former
empress of Germany arrived by
train Thursday at Maarsbergen,
Holland, and went by automobile to
Amerongen, where the former EN-
peror is staying, according to a Rot
terdam dispatch to the Daily Mirror.
The former empress seemed in
high spirits. She was met at the
station by the wife of the German
minister at The Hague. The former
emperor was not at the station and
only a few villagers were about. An
automobile load of baggage was
taken to the castle, but 20 large
trunks were left at the station.
An Amsterdam dispatch says Au-
gusta Victoria used a certain
amount of ingenuity to escape iden-
tification, but the correspondent in
a tramp over the muddy roads from
Marine witnessed her departure
from the station. Notwithstanding
current reports of the serious illness
of the ex-empress, the correspon-
dent said she looked quite we'll.
She wore a black hat with a veil
and purple costume.
William Hohenzollern, her hus-
band, did not go to the station to
meet his wife, but Count Won Ben
timex was waiting at the station
with three motor cars. The former
empress left in the first of these,
accompanied by another woman,
presumably the Countess Kelles.
Then followed Count Won Ben
timex with Augusta Victoria's physi-
clan, this car flying the flag of
Utrecht, while the third car was &C.
cupied by two maids and a male ser
want.
At Zevenaar the former empress
was met by captain of the gendar-
merle, the inspector of the Dutch
state railways, the German vice
consul and his wife. All of them
travelled on the train to Maarsber-
gen, with Augusta Victoria.
