FEEDING CHICKENS,

In the feeding of chickens for whatever
purpose, as in the feeding of all other
I'VE stock. science plays an important
part and the poultry man should have at
least working knowledge OF the princi-
pies involved /; he should know something
OF the chemical composition Of the body
of the fowl and something of the conf
position and character of the various food
materials which are required to meet the
needs of the birds. Chemical analysis
shows that the body. including the feath-
ers and the horny paIts. is composed Of
certain well defined substances known as
proteins, fats, ash or mineral matter and
water. The proteins are chemical COM
pounds Of such elements as carbon. hydro
gen. sulphur and NITROGEN. The last
named element is found in all proteins
enter largely into the composition OF the
muscles, skin. blood, feathers and al
internal organs. The white OF the egg.
Is an example Of almost pure protein
The fats are composed of carbon. hydro
gen and oxygen. They are stored in tn,

Probably there are not birds enough in
the country to clean IN a full-stretch in
vasion Of grasshoppers such as the west
ern farmers have come to dread. 1t is
said. but the birds assist materially in the
efforts made by man to control the pest
Specialists say that poisoning cam
paigns are among the best weapons used
against the grasshopper. From time TO
time reports are sent in saying that many
birds have fallen victim to the poisoned
mixtures placed for the insects. Such
charges were associated with the gypsy
moth spraying campaign in New England
and with the laying of poisoned mashes
for cutworms and other meets. Careful
observation made by experts Slows that
the bird losses from such Gauss IRE in
significant. Some birds, it is sad. are
not harmed at all by the presence Of
poison placed for insects or vermin: the
quail in California were not harmed by
the bats that were set out to kill ground
squirrels-though the. campaign was A
general one and was conducted with much
| intensity. In the Dakotas a few birds
.succumbed to the arsenic mashes placed
| for grasshoppers, but the number killed
was so slight as to be of no consequences,
| it is said.
BY killing stray cats and chasing off
INSCRIPTIONS hunters the farmer can be-
come marty to a sort of defensive al
lance with his birds, so. that when his
crops need protection against insect enc
mics the will have a squadron of aerial
cavalry to help him re9ulse the raid
