SUPPLY GREEN FEED
FOR POULTRY FLOCK
For Best Results 1t Must Be Fur

sirable Varieties.

prepared by the United States Depart
nent of Agriculture.)
If the best results are to be obtained
with poultry they must be furnished
with a plentiful supply of green feed
Where fowls have unlimited range on
a farm they will secure green feed
during the spring, but during the win.
ter 1t must be supplied for them. The
question of how to supply the best
feed at the least cost is one that each
poultry keeper must decide largely for
himself. 1t will probably make but
little difference what kind of green
feed is supplied. provided it is rel
ished by the fowls. Cabbages, turnips,
beets, potatoes. etc, are suitable for
this purpose. The larger roots and the
cabbages may be suspended by means
of wire or string, or they may be
placed on the floor, in which case it
would be well to split the turnips or
beets lengthwise with large knife.
Potatoes and turnips should be fed
cooked. The mangel is an excellent
root for feeding raw. Cut clover
soaked In boiling water fed alone or
with the mash is good. Glover meal
and ground alfalfa make very good
feeds for this purpose. Where the
fowls are yarded and not enough green
feed Is furnished by the yard, small
patch of clover, alfalfa or rape may be
sown. Any one of these, if frequently
moved, will furnish a great quantity
of green feed in form which is rel
fshed by the fowls. Canada field peas
may also be sown for this purpose,
and when fed in a tender, crisp con-
dition are eaten readily.

Associations Help Marketing.
The Poultry Shippers association is
fertile source of better egg and poul-

give each man broader view of his

profits by aiding in the prevention Of
his losses. Through such organiza.

licity to the poultry end of the indus

ton on the part of the farmer that
poultry is more than a mere side line
on the farm, and to increase his out
put, thereby aiding the consumer to
secure a larger quantity and better
quality OF nutritious food on the basis
of the prices he pays.

A pair of scales was bought by Mr..

only one applied. A slot of varying
