GRIT NECESSARY FOR FOWLS
Hopper Feeding Saves Labor and Fur
nishes Desirable Supplementary
Feed for Hens.

Ground feeds are necessary for most
efficient digestion in poultry. Hopper
feeding saves labor and furnishes the
necessary supplementary feed at all
times. There is no danger of poultry
Overeating on ground feeds fed dry In
a hopper. The University of Missouri
college of agriculture is recommend
ing the hopper as Il labor saver In the
poultry yard.
Limestone grit or oyster shell is also
necessary for laying hens. A laying
hen requires large quantities of she'll
making material. Nearly all of this
must come from the grit and shell she
eats. 1t is poor economy not to keep
liberal supply accessible. One ex-
ira egg a year will pay the bill. II
returns the money invested hundred
fold.
Chickens raised on range can be pro-
duced much more economically than
those kept closely confined around the
farm buildings. Not only is less feed
required, but the danger from disease
is reduced. The edge of the cornfield
makes an ideal poultry range. Chick
ems grow best on plOwed ground and
the corn furnishes shade, which is es-
sental during the summer. Under
such conditions, a pound of chicken
can be produced from three to four
pounds Of grain.

Louisville, Ky.

Kentuckey's Governor issued
the following message of
encouragement and appreciation
of the moonlight school teachers
and those who are fighting to
wipe out Kentucky's illiteracy
before the census of 1920
is taken:
while the countries of Europe
rebuild their ruined cities and
rehabilitate their industries, it is
our privilege in the United
States to rehabilitate the lives
of our fellow citizens. One of the
most necessary and most noble
of reconstruction tasks is to
teach all these who are unable to
read and write. We must do this
before the Commonwealth and
the nation can make great
advancement.
The teachers and citizens of
Kentucky are pioneers in this
movement. which has now
become nationwide and has
even been adopted in other coun-
tries. The movement which they
have so unselfshly fostered,
demands the best that is in US
all at this time when the last
battle of this crusade against
illiteracy in Kentucky is being
waged.
| honor the moonlight school
teachers and set a high value
upon the service which they are
volunteering to render to human
ity and to the state. May that
service enrich their own lives as
much as it will bless their fellow
men and the great Commonwealth
of Kentucky.

TIME TO FEED YOUNG CHICKS

Young chicks may be fed any time
after they are thrty-six to forty-eight

good start. The mixture should be fed
in n crumbly mash and not in sloppy

the following ingredients in the pro-
portion named is a very good feed for
young chicks: One dozen infertile eggs
or one pound of sifted beef scraps
to ten pounds of cornmeal; add enough
milk to make a pasty mash and one
tablespoonful of baking soda and bake
until done. Dry bread crumbs may be
mixed with hard-boiled eggs, making
about One-fourth of the mixture eggs.
or rolled oats may be used in place of
bread crumbs.
1t is a good plan to give these feeds
about five times daily for the first
week, then gradually substitute for
one or two of these feeds q mixture
of finely cracked grains of equal parts
by weight of cracked wheat and finely
cracked corn and pinhead oatmeal or
hulled oats, to which about per cent

2 per cent of charcoal or millet or rape

the chicks are two weeks old, when
they should be placed on grain and q

Young chickens should be fed from
three to five times daily, but If care

ORGANIZE MOONLIGHT SCHOOLS

During the war we learned the
power derived from union of thought
purpose and action. This experience
has taught us that when we unite
our efforts we can do anything.
The greatest opportunity of our
work is before us now. Let us unite
for peace time activities and the
best organization to this end is com
munity organization for better farm
ing. better education, and better cit
izenship. Let us teach our good
citizens who missed their childhood
opportunity. Organize and teach a
moonlight school in your district
and then you will be able to reach
everyone with literature that will
help and encourage every individual.
II we embrace the opportunity
that is now before us, the work we
did during the war will be very in
significant compared with the last
ing effects of our work in the future.
l believe that IL person engages
in work, any work, for the sake Of
the work itself, losing sight of the
monetary return, and seeking only
to be truthful, conscientious and sin
eerely servicable, the problem Of
success will be solved.
Then let us as a body of teachers
unite our efforts to EDUCATE our
people for the health and well being
OF humanity.
