HOW MUCH GRAIN TO FEED

Specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture advise poul-
try keepers to feed about / quart OF
scratch grain and an equal weight OF
mash (about | y quarts) daily to IL
hens of the general purpose breeds,
such as the Plymouth Rocks, Rhode
Island Reds or Wyandottes, or about
l6 hens of the smaller or egg breeds.
This would be about y pounds each
of scratch grains and of mash daily
to 100 Leghorns and about 9fs
pounds of each to 100 general pur-
post fowls. If hens have free range
or large yards containing green feed
a general purpose hen will eat about
rs pounds of feed in year, while a
Leghern will consume about 90
pounds in addition to the green stuff
which she eats.

He said in part: Except for the
small store in an outlying district of
a large city, more people can be
reached oftener and at less expense

THE COST OF
MAKING MILK
Windham County Farm Bureau
Has Prepared Cost Sheet
And VIII Furnish Copies
Extension Service of the Hawaiian
Agricultural Experiment Station
Has Applied For One

What does it cost to produce a
quart Of milk? Most farmers know
in general way approximately what
their production is costing them but
they do not know precisely. They have
not the facts at hand to convince the
purchaser who contends that the price
is too high.
In order to enable Connecticut
farmers to figure accurately the cost
of milk production on their own
farms, the County Farm Bureau of
Windham. County has had worked out
summary sheet of milk production
costs. Henry DorraHee of Plainfield,
c. B. Pomeroy of Willimantic, Coun-
ty Agent 3. w. Ellis of Putnam, L.
H. Healey, secretary Of the state
board of agriculture, and w A. Rhea,
extension dairyman of the Connecti-
cut Agricultural College at Storrs,
worked out the cost sheets for the.
farm bureau.
Sample copies of this sheet can be
obtained from the various farm bu-
reaus of the state Farmers are
urged to keep records Of production
costs so that they may know whether
they are making or losing money on
their cows The New England Milk
Producers Association has recently
adopted a somewhat similar cost
sheet.
That such blanks are in demand is
evidenced by an application for one
received from the superintendent Of
the Extension Service of the Hawaii
Agricultural Experiment station.

SACRED DAY
OBSERVANCE
Day of Atonement Most Holy
Day

On Saturday. October 4th, Jews
win observe the most sacred day pre-
scribed By their religion. 1t bears the
name -.Yom Kippur," the Day Of
Atonement Coming as it does nine
days after the New Year, the interval
being regarded aa a period Of spiritu-
al preparation, the Day Of Atonement
has ever held a position of supreme
importance for members Of the Jew
ism faith.
One Of the distinctive features Of
the observance Of the Day Of Atone
ment is the practice Of fasting, or
dained in the Bible and followed by
practically all Jews. The reason for
fasting IS to be sought in the primary
religious significance of the occasion.
Atonement, by derivation, means at
one-ment; and the Day Of Atonement
has as its object to instill into wor-
shippers the realization that they
should be at one with God IN all their
deeds and thoughts. For the adequate
understanding Of this idea it is neces-
sary to escape the distractions of
daily occupation and desirable to alb
stain for the time being from food
and drink. Hence, the universal Gus
tom among Jews to close their places
of business on the Day of Atonement
and spend the entire day in the syna-
gogue without partaking of physical
nourishment.
The observance of the Day Of
Atonement centers about the con-
cepts of sin and repentance, winch
are fundamental to Jewish religious
thought. Sin, it rs held, means SIM
ply deviation from the right course
and can be atoned by sincere repent
ance, which is not a passing mood Of
emotional excitement, but an actual
return to the moral, spiritual life.
Mankind, far from being innatefy cor
rupt or depraved, can surmount the
frailties of flesh to the extent of con-
forming to the exalted ideas revealed
by God to the prophets. Man has
been created in the image of his Max
err, and is capable of the sublimest
of feelings. the deepest of thoughts,
the noblest of actions.
Man may communicate directly
with God; one may rise above mis-
takes and wrongs, committed in the
past, to the very loftiest spiritual
plane. True repentance, expressed
in deeds, is the key to human self-re-
alization, to human happiness. These
are the chief themes emphasized by
the ritual for the Day of Atonement.
The observance of the Day of
Atonement commences with shutdown
Friday, Oct Sd, and concludes at sun
down Saturday, Oct 4th. The latter
part of the service on Saturday, dedi-
Gated to the memory of deceased rel
atives and friends, is especially sol
emn and impressive.
