Summer Calls for Care
Attic chicks may be Matched from
strong, vigorous stock and carefully
brooded, their growth will be retarded
unless they receive the proper atten-
tion during warm weather.
Growing chicks should be provided
with plenty of nutritious food, includ-
| ing green stuff, dry mash and grain.
As supplement to the. green food
which the chickens will rustic on the
free range, a grain mixture, consist
| ing of six parts cracked corn, three
parts wheat, two parts hullcd oats,
and one part Kaffir corn, should be fed
where possible. The ration may be
varied according to grains available,
providing the feeding value is main
tanned. As the chicks get older clip
ped oats may be used instead of the
hulled oats. In addition to the above
feed, a dry mash should be fed in
hopper to which the chicks can have
access at all times. A good mixture
for this purpose consists of two
pounds of corn neal, one pound of
middlings, four pounds of rolled oats,
two pounds of wheat bran and two
and one-half pounds of beef scrap.
Charcoal grit and ground oyster shell
should be available so that the chicks
can help themselves. If a continu-
Gus supply of skim milk is available
it may be fed separately in pan and
the. beef scrap in the above ration can
be reduced one-half.
Whenever it is possible growing
chicks should be allowed free range
so that they may obtain as much nat
ural green food, such as grass, alfal-
ia and clover as they need. Green
food is an excellent tonic for chicks
and when they cannot obtain it on
range, such substitutes as sprouted
oats, cut clover, alfalfa, mangel beets
or cabbage should be fed daily. !
,s Clean, Fresh Water Needed
The Importance Of clean, fresh wa
ter cannot be overastimated. In very
hot weather fresh water should be
provided twice daily, and whenever
possible the water should be placed
in the shade. The water pan should
be cleaned every day before fresh
water is added. On many farms where
both chicks and larger fowls have ac-
cess to the same range, wire-cov-
cred frame should be made to pro-
tect the feed intended for the growing
chicks. An opening of about four
inches is left at the bottom of the

 The location of mineral deposits at grass roots grow infrequently from year to year, pecially in those that have become the home hunting ground of intelligent Much virgin territory remains, and it will be many generations before the most distant has been prospected. But dustries mus depend. Manufacturing industries do not quickly follow to the source of supplies. Supplies be brought to the industrial centers. and the those supplies to the industrial centers already built the valuable do they be- Naturally, supplies close at hand will be the first to be exhausted, and gradually the manufac- turer draws from known sources farther and farther away, until the expense of transportation becomes great as to threaten industry at this stage that the prospector loses his importance, and the economic geologist has opportunity to exhibit hi skill. With all visible exhausted it is no longer question of following stringers and indications tC other veins bodies of mineral, searching witf small deposits guide to larger ones, but is 2 matter requiring an intimate knowledge of ore de posits and the formations in which they occur.
 The surface of the earth, that portion of it which prospector may examine with is very limited portion of the whole The surface of the earth as known to the geologist, that portion respecting from daylight to several miles in depth, certainly beyond human means of penetrating with shafts o boreholes.
