GRAIN RATION FOR PIGEONS
Good Mixture May Be Made by Using
Corn, Wheat, Peas and Vetch-
Peanuts Are Good.

Many varieties of grains are used
in feeding pigeons. A good mixture
may be made of equal PARTS by weight
Of small whole corn. hard, dry wheat,
peas and vetch. with a small quantity
(about five per cent each) Of hemp
and millet seeds added during the mOlt-
ing period.
Other grains which may be subSti-
tuted for or added to these are pea
nuts, dried garden peas, cOwpeas,
clipped oats or hulled oats. buckwheat,
Egyptian corn, and milo maize, while
a small quantity Of stale bread. rice.
rape, millet. canary or sunfiOwer seed
may be fed for variety.
Peas are expensive. but seem to be
essential TO the best results, espe-
cIally during the breeding season.
Peanuts, cowpeas and dried garden
peas give quite good results and some
times are used in place of field peas
when the latter are high in price. Soy
beans do not seem TO be so wen liked
by pigeons.
Tender green feed. such as freshly
cut clover, alfalfa and chard, lettuce.
plantain leaves and chickweed may
be fed, but Is not essential.

executive officers of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau that the county boards
be compelled to appropriate money for

farm bureau appropriations. Repre-
sentative j. B. Hompe announced that

each county, but only $1,000 for each
county agent or home demonstration
agent. st. Louis county, under the pro-
posed law, may appropriate up to $685.

boards in all other counties shall ap-
propriate from $1,000 to $4,000
