GROW A SMALL PATCH OF. .5
# MANGELS FOR THE CHICKENS

According to G. E., Brown, poultry
specialist at the Crookston Experiment
Station, very few poultrynen nowadays
fail to realize the Importance of sup
plying green food to their flocks during
the winter months. BY far too many
fail to make any preparation for grow
ing this very important food item and
not until winter appears do they real
ize their mistake. April and May
should not be allowed to pass by with
out some effort at planting some roots
OF some sort to keep the poultry we'll
supplied all winter.
He states that at the station practic~
ally all varieties Of stock roots have
been fed to chickens for a good many
years and that it is his belief that
mangels. or stock beets, furnish the
very best green food that can be grown.
Chickens, geese and ducks all prefer
them to rutabagas, carrots, cabbage or
sugar beets. They are easily and cheap
" grown and some varieties have Weld
ed, this station, as high as 80 tons per
acre.
MangelS are grown very similarly to
garden beets with the exception that
they should be thinned to about -
inches in the row and the rows should
be about 30 inches apart. If the plants
are grown much closer than this the
roots do not grow to such convenient
size for feeding. If the roots are har-
vested before frost touches them and
they are stored in good cellar or pit
they will keep until late spring.

BOND ISSUE OF 100000

troit board of commerce will stand
back of the Detroit Housing Corpora
TONS proposal to float a bond issue OF
5000, 1000 for building additional homes
for workers in the city. This was
made clear when 95 per cent of the
boards membership endorsed the idea.
Virtual pledges on the part of the en-
tire membership of the board were
made to subscribe most of the fun.
The commercial organization has
Just completed a survey tending to
show that the growth of Detroit, both
in population and industry, is being
retarded by the house shortage. 1t was
revealed that workers are paying from
$40 to 500 per month for places in
which to live and that many workmen
either are leaving Detroit for other
cities or are threatening to do so.
The bonds that the members of the
board are asked TO buy are in de-
nominations of 800, $500 and 81 900,
maturing semi-annually. They are to
be secured by mortgages.
