CHEAPER POULTRY
RATI0NS

prepared by the United States Depa
ment of Agriculture.)

ment of Agriculture)
The demand for wheat for human
consumption necessitates that 1t be
used as economically and sparingly
as possible for feeding animals and
chickens. Some lust as good" ra-
tons which contain no wheat have
been tried out in egg laying tests by
the United States department of ag-
riculture, and excellent results have
been secured. Thirty laying hens, to
which wheatless rations were fed,
produced in the two years covered
by the test on an average Of 1913
eggs for the pullet year, and 12l eggs
during the second year. This COM
pares favorably with egg yields Sc
cured on other ratiOns containing
wheat, and therefore more expensive.
The wheatless ration is also being
tried on q pen of Buff Orpington pull
lets and during the past ten month";
they have laid on an average Of 11l.'
eggs, a very good yield for this pc
riod.
The wheatless ration used was as
follows:
Scratch mixture Two pounds OF
cracked corn, one pound Of oats.
Dry Mash-Three pounds Of corn
meal, one pound Of beef scrap.
The scratch mixture was fed spar
ingly, the hens being permitted to eat
about as much of it as of the dry
mash. During the two-year test the
hens were provided with free range
where they could pick variety OF
green feed. Leghorn pullets were
used and it was found that 1t took
4.6 pounds Of feed to produce dozen
eggs. Fifty-two pounds Of grain was
consumed by each pullet annually
and Of this amount twenty-six pounds
was from the scratch mixture. When
wheat Is omitted from the ration 1t Is
advisable to feed more beef scrap
Laying hens should have a good sup
NV of protein, and the additional beet
scrap supplies this essential in one OF
the cheapest forms.
Cotton seed meal used to replace
half the beef scrap in the mash has
given good results on the government
poultry farm and has had no bad eft.
feet on the quality of the eggs. Where
cotton seed meal replaced all the beei
scrap the results were unsatisfactory
both in number and quality of eggs
Mussel meal has not proven as good
substitute for beef scrap as fish
meal, which, to the amount of % pei
cent of the mash, has affected the
flavor or the taste of the eggs.

Use More Hominy
Several Kind. Of This Real
American Food

Americans! Have we forgotten some
of the best foods we once knew? Are
you using hominy? Why not follow
the example of our forefathers and use
much of this good corn product? The
first settlers of America learned from
the Indians how to prepare the Indian
corn for use. They removed the hulls
from the dry grain by pounding it In
q mortar with a pestle. The cracked
corn they called by the Indian name
':hominy." Hominy became one OF
their staple foods without which they
would often have gone hungry. They
cooked 1t in huge iron kettles hung
over the blazing logs in the open fire
place.
They also learned to remove the
germ and hull from the corn by boiling
the grain with I've and then washing
thoroughly. They sometimes called
this product "hulled corn" but it is now
more often called "lye hominy."
There are several kinds of hominy
on the market. If you do not know
how good they are, try them and hnd
out, advises the United STATES depart
ment Of agriculture.
The coarse hominy, samp, or pearl
hominy.-This Is much like the hominy
the pioneers used. The grain Is spit
to remove the germ, hulled and pol
ished by machinery. 1t is much used
particularly in the central and eastern
states. 1t is worth using everywhere.
The fine hominy or hominy grits.-
This is made by grinding the coarse
hominy. Grits are excellent served as
a vegetable much as rice is used. Grits
are also used in many parts OF the
country as breakfast food.
I've hominy.-Lye hominy Is maze
at home by many and also made com
mercially by boiling the grain in I've OF
potash until the germ Will come ou'
and then washing out the lye. ln
many places it may be bought in bulk
and Is also sold canned. 1t may DC
dried for future use or canned al
home. .a
All varieties Of hominy are gooo
nourishing food. Like wheat, rice anC
other cereals they give both body rue
and bodybuilding material at COIN
paratively low price. Let them nave
a larger place in your diet.

Cravath's Grudge Justified

Jerusalem Blooming Again
Like a Rose, Says Writer
In Letter to London Times

The Rose Of Jericho, writes a Jeru'
salem correspondent TO the LOnd0E
Times, when one buys it in the shops
is a queer little withered ball Of shriV
eled fbers, which the ineZperienced
think fit oaly fer the rubbish heap
But put it in water and the thing re-
wives, turns freshly green, and begins
to sprout anew with life that has beer
always dormant but never dead. This
strange plant IS sylnbOlical Of Jerusa'
lem. The more rapid recovery from
conditions IF misery was delayed by
the maneuvers of certain Spectators
whose object was to hinder the British
advance Into Palestine, bringing with
it vivifying tide OF honest Egyptian
notes and silver.
Seeming profit, rascally spectators
went about among the more ignorant,
cunningly representing Egyptian notes
to be only worth in gold the value OF
diScrcdited Turkish paper, and they
thus succeeded in buying up guam
THY at the average price of IS. Cd.
Such chicanery caused great distress
to the mass of the people and Consid-
cradle Inconvenience to the military
administration by shaking public con-
fdence in the Egyptian bank notes.
But the good names of Britain and
of Egypt are helping things to right
themselves, and trade is now being
done in goods coming from Egypt
daily. Jerusalem had become like the
Rose of Jericho, which had withered
and was seemingly dead. To US is II
given to watch the Holy City revive
and renew her youth.

Bathing Is a Luxury, Not a

Arctic Explorers Theory

Stefansson aggerts bathing IS purely
an esthetic principle and that the
value Of cleanliness to health has not
been established by the medical prac-
titioners.
Mr.. StetanssOn's announcement
will be greeted with jubilation by the
elements which possess an ingrown
dislike for hydrogen and oxygen In
proportions Of two to one. II has been
accepted as dogmatic by the Mexican
pelados for years, who as a religious
function, battle only on st. Johns

much of what the ordinary practf-
toner tells you about bathing for
health Is either not yet demonstrated
as true or else is demonstrably I'M
true." declares Mr.. Stefansson. 1.-The
fact is that. according to the point Of
view, cleanliness Is matter OF esthet-
les or else of taboo observance rather
than of health"
The explorer makes en- apology in
the article for his attack on medical
orthodoxy by declaring he has been
divorced from medical books and jour-
nails for more than ten years. MIR.
Stefansson wrote the treatise while
in the arctic region In 1916. He was
reported as dangerously Ill from ty-
phoid fever on Herschel island.
