Feeding Fowls Frozen Vegetables.

Vegetables which have been frozen
can be thawed out and fed to the
fowls, but as a rule such blemished
materials must be used quicki~~a
they do not keep we'll after thawing.
Clover and alfalfa may be fed as hay
cut into One-quarter or one-half inch
lengths, or they may be purchased and
fed in the form of meal.
Oats for sprouting are soaked over
night in warm water and then are
spread out from one-half to one inch
thick on specially arranged trays hav-
ing perforated bottoms. the trays then
being put into an Oat SprOuter. The
oats should be watered thoroughly and
the trays should be turned around
once daily in order To assure even
sprOuting During cold weather arti-
fetal heat should be supplied by the
lar means. 1t is essential TO use a
good grade Of oats and to allow daily
square inch of SprOuted oat surface
to hen, feeding the sprOuted oats
on the floor of the poultry house or
in the yard. Al any time after the
sprouts are well started-usually from
five to seven days after the gra n is
placed in the SprOuter-thiS green ma
terial 10 available for feeding TO the
flock. 1t is necessary to keep the oat
SprOuter clean and to spray il occa-
sionally with a disinfectant to prevent
the growth of molds.
Potatoes and turnips are also sat
isfactory az a winter feed for the
these root crops before they are suit
able for flock use Clover may also
be cut into short lengths, from one
fourth to One-half an inch. and placed
in bucket. Then boiling water should
be poured over the clover and the ma
terial should be allowed 10 stand for
two or three hours or over night.
When the pOultryman is ready to feed
this material To the flock he should
first drain off the water and then mix
the hay into the mash, allowing the
hay TO constitute about one-half the
bulk of the feed. Although clover hay
is best adapted for serving in this
manner, almost any kind of hay is
valuable. The feeder must be careful
not to supply too much bulky feed to
the hens. as these fowls have small
crops and cannot handle a great
amount of roughage as can cows and
other animals which ruminate their
feed.
Grit Furnishes False Teeth.
Grit is essential to the health of the
fowls and to economy in feeding. as
It takes the place of teeth in prepar-
ing the feed for further digestion, and
It is required for the proper manipu-
lation OF the feed in the gizzard. A
box of grit should be provided In every
pen or yard, as this material is an es-
sential part of the menu. 1t supplies
the fowls with strong bone and bright
plumage. Similarly. the accessibility
to oyster shells or old mortar and fine
gravel are also desirable. as these ma

Winter greens for the flock is one
Of thd most profitable additions 10
the polltry bill of fare which the av-

of green feed from rustling about on

Jack Frost, The pasturage is exhaust
ed and it becomes necessary for the
pOultryman To provide his hens with
some juicy. succulent and nutritious
substitute for grass.
The variety of green feeds avail
able for winter use is enough Ia avoid
monOtony. For instance, Sprouted
oats may be used prOtilably, although
the preparation of this material usual
ly involves some extra care and eX-
ertion. Alfalfa meal, which now is
available on the market, may be had
at prices consistent with the ultimate
value of the egg crop. while chopped
alfalfa and clover hay also furnish
nOuriShmCnt and Succulence at moder-
ate cost. Cabba@eS are used by many
hen owners as bulky and sappy feeds
to satisfy appetiteS craving for green
stuff, while mangel-WurzclS-WhI
usually have to be grown by the Hook
owner in his home garden, as 1t is
difficult to secure these beets on the
general market-alSo are keenly rel
ished by the fowls and are well quail
flied for place in the winter ration.
As a rule cabbages are suspended in
the poultry house with pieces or
Irvine which are fastened 10 nails ov-
erhead. The mangel-wurZels are US
ually split and stuck on nails OH the
side walls Of the pen about foot
above the floor, the plan being To pro-
vide the hens with just as much OF
this juicy feed as they will clean up
with a relish and without waste.

Knox, Not Sproul
 is Given Support
 of BOies PenrOse

Philadelphia. April 3O.-Unitec States Senator Boies Penrose, who is convalescing at his home here af. ter long illness, told callers today that United States Senator P. C. Knox is the "best equipped, all around international statesmen, to be the next presidential candidate of the republican party"
 In view of the fact that the repub- lican organization of Pennsylvania was expected to support Governor Sproul of Pennsylvania as first choice, Senator Penrose's statement to newspaper reporters was received in political circles with much inter- est.
 My own personal opinion, after considerable reflection, without con- sulting the presidential party con- cerned and without knowledge whether he would take the place, has persuaded me that Senator Knox is the best equipped, all-around in- ternational statesman to meet the re- quirements of the situation" he said.
 Governor Sproul later made a statement to the effect that he agreed with Senator Penrose. The gover- nor said the friendship between Senator Knox and Senator Hiram Johnson of California, has aided in turning attention to Senator Knox's availability.
 "Close observers" said Governor Sproul, "are of the opinion that much of the unexpected strength shown by Senator Johnson was due to his stand on the league of nations and the peace treaty. Senator Knox represents the same point of view and I agree with Senator Penrose that he probably is our best equip ped international statesman and ranks with Senator Lodge in his po- sition in the senate"

Former Consul at Vera Cruz Tells of Disclosures in
 1914

Washington, April SOW. w Canada, American consul at Vera Cruz for 20 years, told the senate Mexican Investigating committee to- day that Luis Cabrera, finance min lster in Carranza's cabinet, had an- nounced in 1914 that the present president of Mexico, in launching his successful revolution against Huer- ta, had as one of his ultimate ob- jects the driving of Americans out of Mexico and the taking of their property for Mexicans"
 MT. Canada said Cabrera's state ment was made to foreign consuls who had assembled at Vera Cruz at his invitation at time when President Wilson was insisting that Carranza should triumph.
 MT. Canada said when American refugees came to John Lind, Presi- dent Wilson's personal envoy in Mexico, they were told "that such things as they were complaining of always happened in times of war, and that Yankee soldiers had done much worse down south during the civil war"
 The witness said he resigned in 1918 because it was only a question of time until Carranza trapped me-"
 Canada told the committee that two per cent of the MeXicans, those in the army and other places, were running the country and they could never bring peace or prosperity.
 Armed intervention is the on- ly thing that would do any good now," said he.
