most desirable. 1t can be bought and

loupe rinds and grass clippings. Bread
and cake crumbs make desirable filling
food for the hens. The suburban
Housewife whose neighbOrs do not
maintain fiocks should request them to
save their cake and bread crumbs as
well as their table scraps for her hens.
In the main, the small flock can be
maintained In this manner at slight
expense while the fowl will be pro.
vided with plenty Of essential food.
Meat scraps from the table, with
such bugs and worms as the range pro-
vides. supply plenty Of animal food.
1t is preferable to run the meat scraps
through meat grinder and then to
mix them with three parts Of corn
meal and one part OF wheat bran. This
mixture should be fed at midday,
while the grain supply, consisting Of
cracked or whole corn or oats-about
one-half pint to ten hens-should be
fed in the litter during the morning
so that the birds will scratch for II.
II table scraps are not available In
plenty, grain should also be fed at
night. In case the hens show a tend
ency to get too fat 1t is advisable to
reduce the amount Of grain.
Buy Beef Scraps.
In case the meat left-overs from the
family table are not sufficient to pro-
vide scraps for the hens, 1t is desir-
able to purchase and feed beef scraps.
Furthermore, the hens should be given
constant access to grit or small stones
which the fowl can readily swallow,
and they should also be supplied with
crushed oyster or clam shells. Laying

Hen obesity and hen languor are op-
posed to profitable poultry production
because excessively fat hens, as well
as languid, lazy hens, lay few eggs
and devote their energies to storing
up surplus avoirdupois instead Of con-
centrating on the manufacture Of an
egg every other day. Hustle yourself,

ennui to the extent that you become
portly and ambitionless. Remember
that all the consumers love fat hen

Early molting hens may lay well
during the spring season, but when the
summer is on in all its glory they
slump and decline in production to the
extent that 1t is extravagant to keep
them longer In the flock. Good spring
layers often are not good summer lay
ers.
No hen should be sold while she con-
tinues to lay. Occasionally hen that
has become brOody may again resume
laying after brief period and con-
finue profitable production throughout
the summer. Generally speaking. all
hens that begin to 'molt in June or

In extremely hot weather special
care is necessary to prevent chicks
from being Overheated by exposure TO

the number of chicks should not be
greater than 1t will accommodate COM

Skim milk, either sweet or sour,
and buttermilk are especially valuable
feeds In hot weather, making the diet
lighter without reducing its nutritive
value. The milk should be fed In a
drinking fountain or In a dish cover
ed with wire netting so that the
chicks can not get into 1t and become
soiled with milk. The use Of milk
does not do away with the use of
water, which should be given as usual.
Unless the premises where chicks
are kept and all appliances used are
known to be absolutely free from
lice and mites, and 1t is certain that
chicks have never been exposed to
them. 1t is wise precaution to paint
