The first ration consists Of a mixture
of six parts by weight of corn meal
and four parts Of low-grade wheat

is one part by weight of shorts or mid,

three parts Of corn meal; while the
third feeding mixture is composed of
equal parts by weight Of corn meal,
wheat -four or middings, and oat flour.

able, the farmer should add 10 per
cent of chopped vegetables and per
cent of meat meal to the above rations.
If water is used for mixing the feed,
enough should be used TO make a Crum-
bly,, moist mixture. Water may also
be given to the fowls for drinking pur-
poses where this feeding combination
is used, but in the case where milk is
used in the ration it is not advisable
to supply any additional water.
Feed Light Rations at First
When the birds are first confined for
fattening purposes they should be fed
lightly for two to three days, after
which they may be furnished all that
they will clean up in 80 minutes, two
or three times a day. Their heaviest
meal for the day should always be the
last one. Comprehensive experiments
by the United States department Of
agriculture show that it takes 81
pounds Of grain to produce one pound
Of gain on fattening poultry. Usually
1t costs considerably more TO fatten
mature hens than it does to flesh up
cockerels and younger stock. Accord
ing ia the experience Of the depart.
ment specialists, the general purpose
birds are the most desirable for fatten-
ing purposes.
As rule the fattening period usu-
ally lasts from seven to seventeen
days, during which time the fowls are
confined in cOops. The younger or
smaller birds give good results where
they are fed for the longer period.
What has been said in the foregoing
paragraphs applies with equal force to
the fattening Of all poultry.
The accompanying Illustration shows

terry in which the moist rations may
be fed in troughs, so that the birds can
eat cafeteria fashion.

Swallow Is Enemy of MOSQUITO.

If you want TO free the neighbor-
hood of mosquitoes encourage swal-
lows to make themselves at home, SAYS
the American Forestry association.
These birds feed almost entirely upon
obnoxious insects and they will do
much toward protecting orchards and
other trees from insect pests. No bet
ter investment can be made, therefore,
than some houses set out for martins
or other swallows. OF the blue swal-
lows the purple martin is the largest,
the male being entirely blue above with
gray breast. Swallows are highly
migratory, most of them spending the
winter in South America.

Because their room is more desirable
than their company, the cOckerels in
the flock during the late spring and
early summer are about as popular as
the appearance of Jack Frost during
peach-budding season. That is why It
pays the average pouItryman to start
cleanup campaign in his yards which
will result in selling all the surplus
cockerels as soon as they reach mar
ketable size. This disposition of the
male birds will provide more commodi-
Gus quarters for the pullets which are
to be raised to maturity. Furthermore,
as a general proposition, the earlier
the cOckerels are marketed, after they
reach suitable size, the higher are
the prices they will bring, other cOndi-
tons being equal, while on the other
hand, the longer the cockerels are kept
in the flock the smaller will be the
net profit they will yield when finally
sold.
1t is desirable that each poultryman
retain the choicest, most vigorous and
beSt-grOwn cockerels in his flock for
subsequent breeding operations, while
1t may also pay him to hold back and
grow to larger size such birds as he
desires to use for the family table. The
common practice to be recommended
is to sell the cOckerels as soon as they
attain marketable size. In sections
orI-
available, cOckerels of the lighter
breeds, such as the Leghorn, may be
sold as squad broilerS when weighing
from three-quarters Of n pound TO one
pound apiece. On the more general
markets where frying chickens are de
sired and with the larger breeds espe-
cially, the cockerels may be fattened
to weigh from one and one-half to two
and one-half pounds apiece before be-
ing sold.
Coventry for the CockereIs.
The cockerels which are retained for
breeding purposes should be kept apart
from the rest Of the flock. In the case
of the male birds designed for market
it often is possible and practicable to
fatten them for few days before SELL
Ing them. This extra attention gets
the birds into the best condition, and
even means the difference between
marketing them with the fancy trade,
which is willing to pay premium
prices, and selling to consumers who
desire goods Of mediocre quality be-
cause they are cheap.

PRICE OF PRODUCTS
AND FARM LAB0RERS
Bureau of Crop Estimates Makes
Interesting Comparison
Wage Rates Have Not Kept Pace With
Advance of Farm Products During
War-Beean to Converge Dur
inQ Year of 1918.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
A composite crop and live stock
price has been provided by the bureau
of crop estimates, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, and the ad-
vance of this price since 1914, or the
beginning of the war, may be COM
pared with the advance in the wage
rates paid for farm labor. From 1914
to 1915 wage rates gained / per cent
and the price Of crops fell 3 per cent,
but since 1915 wage rates have not
gained on 1914 as much as the price
of crops and live stock has. The adj
vance in wages In 1916 was 10 per
cent above 1914, while the price of
crops and live stock advanced IL per
cent. In the next year, 1917, wages
rose % per cent above 1914. while the
price of crops and live stock rose "A
per cent, but in 1918 the disparity be-
tween the two in the advance was
slightly reduced and the gain of wages
over 1914 was G5 per cent and Of price
of crops and live stock 90 per cent.
1t is well known that wage rates are
more stable than prices, as a general
fact, and 1t is according to rule that
the wage rates of farm labor have not
kept pace with the advance Of prices
of farm products during the war, even
though much labor was drawn from
the farm by higher wage rates else
where. The two movements began to
converge in 1918 and their places with
regard to each other in more normal
times to follow remain for the future
to determine.

ENDLESS CHAIN NOT MYSTICAL
Doctor Fighting Influenza Explains
How Curative Serum Went From

The prevalence of influenza and

their blood streams. AS soon as the
patients condition permits, therefore.
they are bled as much and as frequent
