SIMPLE, HANDY RACK

The simple, handy rack for
sprouting oats shown In the illus
tration can be easily made at
home and Is suitable for sprout-
ing a sufficient quantity Of oats
for flock of 1S to 20 hens. The
trays are 18 by "a inches, and
are made of thin box material.
The material used In the frame
consists of four corner pieces 2
by A inches square and 40 inches
high; eight crosspieces "a inches
long, and four crosspieces %
inches long. -Four quarts Of oats
are put in each tray until they
begin to sprout, when they are
spread out In two trays. When
the sprouts are two inches high
feed a section Of the sprouted
oats about eight inches square,
roots and all, daily for a flock of
1S or 20 hens.

WINTER RATION
FOR HEN FLOCK
Poultrymen Should Have Supply
of Green Feed to Last
Through Cold Season.
spROUTED OATS ARE FAVORED
Provide SuceuIence and Bulk to Keep
Fowls In Good condition-cab-
bages, Mangel Wurzels, Glover
and Alfalfa Good.

Green feeds for poultry contain only
a small percentage of actual food nu-
trients, but are important because Of
their succulence and bulk, which
tighten the grain 'rations and assist In
keeping the birds in good condition.
The poultrymen should secure suffi-
cient supply Of such feeds to last
through the winter months in sections
where growing green feeds cannot be
obtained. When chickens are fattened
without the use of milk, green feed
helps to keep them in good condition.
Cabbage, mangel wurzels, clover, al
falfa and sprouted oats are the green
feeds commonly used during the win
ter. Cabbages do not keep as well In
ordinary cellars as mangel wurzels, so
where both of these feeds are avail
able the cabbages are fed first They
are often suspended, while the mangel
wurzels are split and stuck on nail
on the wall Of the pen. Clover and
alfalfa may be fed as hay, cut into
one-half to one-inch lengths, or may
be bought in the form of meal. Alfalfa
meal has a feeding analysis equal to
bran, but is not as digestible on ac-
count of its larger percentage of fiber.
Clover and alfalfa should be cut while
slightly immature If they are to be
cured and fed to poultry. The leaves
and chaff from such hay are especially
adapted for poultry feeding.
enro,,4sd Oate Beet
One of the best and most readily OBJ
tainable green feeds which Is now be-
ing used extensively as winter feed
Is sprouted oats. The oats can be
soaked for II hours In warm water
and spread out In layer of from one
half to one and one-half inches deep
on floor or in tray or tier of flats.
The trays should have openings in the
bottom or the bottoms should be made
Of three-sixteenth inch wire mesh, so
the water drains freely. Sprinkle the
oats twice daily and stir them every
other day until sprouts are well start
ed. Unless the oats are stirred mold
may set in, thus spelling the feed.
They are usually fed when the sprouts
are from 1 to IN inches long, although
some poultry men prefer allowing the
sprouts to grow to two or three inches
long.
Plan for Sprouting Oats.
Oats need moist, warm atmosphere
In which to sprout quickly, so that 1t
is necessary to furnish heat or to keep
them in warm room during the WIN
ter, while they may be sprouted out OF
doors during the rest of the year. 1t
takes from six to ten days to sprout
oats, depending upon the temperature
of the room. II the oats are inclined
to become moldy, Notwithstanding the
! fact that they are stirred during the
first part of the sprouting period, 1t is
advisable to treat them with formalin.
A solution made in the proportion of
one pint formalin to 30 gallons Of wa
ter should be sprinkled over and thor
oughly mixed with the oats. A guam
tity of oats can be treated at one
time in this way, then covered with a
blanket for "a hours, then dried by
airing and stirring, and placed In
sacks. Oats thus treated and dried
may be held for a long time for
sprouting.

j. II. Gregory Announces for
Sheriff.


Mr.. J. T. Gregory has authorized
the Weekly to announce him as a
candidate for sheriff of Monroe
county. He is now serving the first
district as supervisor, to which pO-
sition he was elected over several
competent contestants four years
ago. Before his election to the su-
pervisor's office, Mr.. Gregory served
his district one term as bailiff and
made a record which commended
his election to the higher place.
Mr.. Gregory was born and edu-
Gated in Monroe county; has always
lived in the county and his life as a
citizen and official is known to its
people. The record he has made
for himself in the private and public
walks of life will appeal to his fell
low citizens for favorable considera-
tion of his candidacy for the sheriff's
office. Mr. Gregory is qualified by
education and experience to make
the people an exceptionally good
sheriff and is endowed with quail
ties of accommodation and courtesy
that will make his presence in the
shcriff's office a pleasure to those
who 90 there to transact business.
Mr. Gregory instructs us to thank
the people for the fayors they have
shown him in the past and to say
that -hould they elect him to the
office he now seeks that he would
show his appreciation by serving
them faithfully and efficiently as
their sheriff.
