FEEDING HENS FOR
EGG PRODUCTION

For profitable egg production, it is
necessary that hens have all they will
eat of a well balanced egg-producing
ration. The heavy laying hen is good
feeder; the under fed hen is always Il
bill of expense, say specialists Of the
Division of Extension, University Of
Tennessee
Hens often become too fat because
the ration is deficient in protein and
ash. The protein can best be supplied
by sour sllimmilk, meat scrap and
tankage and the ash by oyster shell.
The hen cannot change the compost
ton of the egg to suit the kind of feed
which she is supplied; she win not lay
at all unless she has the right mater
ials for making a perfect product. 1t
is better economy to buy, if need be,
such feeds as are necessary to make
a balanced ration than use home feeds
and get no eggs. Ask your county
agent or write to the Division Of Ex-
tension, University of Tennessee, for
free bulletins on poultry and rations
for reproduction.

Discovered Coal
At Tracy City

Thomas B Wooten, father of
Mrs. n J. Bunter and grandfather
of B. H. Finch, both of this city, who
died in Tracy City at the ripe age of
81 wears, was one of the oldest AMI
best known citizens of that place.
He had been identified with the PEG.
pie of the Tracy City section long
before the establishment of the
town. In fact, almost his entire
life was spent there. He was born
IN Warren county on May i, 1880.
Before the whistle of steam en-
CINE or the rattle of hand-car was
ever heard upon the summit of the
Cum berlands, what now constitutes
the streets of Tracy City served as
a playground for him in the happy,
care-free days of childhood. Wild
game was abundant in those days
ana Mr.. Wooten spent large por-
ton of his early lite hunting, He
was the man who first discovered
coal at Tracy City. Mr.. Finch,
grandson of the deceased, is man
ager of the American Clothing com
pany here.-News, Chattanooga.
