| egg production, the proper feeds
should be given in sufficient Quanti-
ties to induce this production.
In feeding poultry a valuable lesson
may be learned from nature. In the.
spring the. production of eggs is an
easy matter. Fowls at liberty to roam
find an abundance of green and animal
feed Oh their range, which, with grain,
provides a perfect ration for laying
hens. In addition to this they get
plenty OF exercise and fresh air. So.
far as possible. then, the feeder should
try to make these winter conditions.
springlike.
Two systems are used in feeding
folws-the dry-mash and the moist
mash, although in the dry-mash sys-
tenn ight-moist mash often is fed. By
the term mash" poultrymen mean a,
mixture of ground feed, either moist
or dry. The greatest advantages to
be derived from the dry-feed system
are the saving of labor and the less
ened danger of bowel trouble result
ing from sloppy or soured mashes. In
the dry-feed system for laying hens,
as practiced successfully on a New
York poultry farm, the grains fed are
as follows, in tie proportions Indicated
This mixture is scattered in the lit
ter early in the morning, and again at
about II 80 a. M. and this induces
abundant exercise. A hopper con-
tanning dry mash is hung against the
wall. The mash is made of these in
(by meaSure):
200 pounds cracked 1870 pounds wheat.
corn. 100 pounds oats.
30 parts bran. 10 parts ground al
30 parts middlings. falfa.
81 parts corn meal. parts oyster shell.
30 parts meal (ani- part grit.
maD l part charcoal.
The hopper containing this mash is
kept before the fowls all of the time.
Corn is the most popular of all the
grain feeds for farm poultry, probably |
because of its abundance and compare
tive cheapness, and because it is rel
ished over all other grains. 1t should
be balanced with meat, bone lnseed
meal, gluten meal, and such feeds as
are rich in protein, ror corn is def
Gent in this constituent. When corn
is fed to hens that have plenty of ex.
erciSe. and a chance to get insects
and green feed, more satisfactory re
suits are likely to be recorded thar
when fed to the same fowls closely
1t may be fed quite literally
to your poultry during the winter in
cold climates, but should be fed spar
ngly in summer
Wheat usually is considered the
safest grain to feed alone but is too
expensive to be fed much to fowls
This grain should be supplemented

Kisses His Wife
Then Ends Life

MORRISVILLE, Jan. so. H.
Mudgett, one of MorriStown's prom
inent farmers, and a highly respected
citizen, shot and killed himself early
yesterday morning because of i'll
health. He had been in poor health
for a year, suffering from nervous
trouble, and on Friday had been
worrying about a decision in farm
deal. He arose at five, kissed his
wife, and then went into the shed and
shot himself. His father committed
suicide by hanging some years ago.
Nj. Mudgett was member and
past master Of Lamoille Grange; sec
rotary OF the Lamoillc County Farm
Bureau; a member of the Congrega-
tional church and Sunday school,
where he was regular attendant
and active worker.
Funeral services were held Monday
at two O'Clock at his late home, the
Rev. George +. GoodlitIe of the Con-
grcgational church officiating. Inter
ment was in the family lot in Noun
tain View cemetery, MorristoWn
Corners.

and fell and the pair were stopped by
a passing team. The horses were not
injured but Mr. Berkwitz estimates
the damage at 500.
H. c. Griffin of Derby Center driE-
ing to town later in the afternoon,
stopped his horse at the Blake market
and had just stepped out of the sleigh
when the horse took fright and dash
ed off. Mr.. Griffin had hold OF one
rein but it broke and the horse ran,
breaking the thills from the sleigh
He tried to attend the movies, but
was a little early for the show, passed
under the entrance, and back up the
street. Mr.. Griffin was able to stop
him as he neared the market and the
horse received only slight cuts and
bruises.

Elks Grand Ball to Be
Enjoyable Social Affair

in vehicles will be assured that no
damage will be done their gowns as
they will be protected by the canopy
ip going from the curbing to the hall.
Another novelty will be individual
service in serving the luncheon at in
PERMISSION which will be under the
personal supervision Of c. A. Erich
the chef at the Elks Home.
The tickets for the ball are So q
couple and 81 for extra ladies who
are under escort. 1t should be re-
membered that this cost covers every
thing. 1t includes the checking Of
clothes, the luncheon, or in fact ev-
erythlng in connection with the ball
even to the war tax. This total cost
Is but 30 cents more than the price
last year when tickets were sold at SO
without war tax, luncheon and check
ing.
While no expense has been spared
in arranging the affair the spirit Of
Elkdom will prevail. 1t will be night
of good fellowship, Many Brother
Elks Will not wear evening clothes
nor will their lady friends be sump-
tuously gowned. The committee wish
es it distinctly understood that there
will be no spirit of snobbishness at
this affair. The object is entirely to
provide the best music, the best dec
orations, the best luncheon that can
be provided but with the object of
giving Elks and their friends an
evening OF supreme enjoyment and
not TO stage an Exclusive function"
The object in limiting the tickets
to POO is to assure those who buy
tickets that they will have an enjoy
able time.
The capacity of the A,mory is
about 200 couples for pleasurable
dancing. To provide exquisite music
and elaborate decorations and then
pack the dancers in so that they
could not dance would be to defeat
the entire object of the affair. Con-
Scquently the committee is making an
effort to have large enough party to
comfortably fill the hall and no more.
Those who delay in buying their
tickets if they find later that they
have waited too long, will have no
one but theyselves to blame.
The affair is under the direction Of
the following general committee:
Ball, Robert Nichols, chairman;
tickets, Fred W. Kelley; decorations,
Roy c. Calderwood; floor director,
Samuel Moore; music, Dr.. F. O.
Moore; publicity, Frank f. Harris;
refreshments, Charles f. Erich.
Tickets will be found on sale at
the Caledonian- Record office for
those who have not been solicited by
members of the ticket committee.

DEMPSEY BACKED BY

Pendleton Fight Fans Put Cash
on Heroic Jack But Will
be Happy to See Him Lose.

If the expressions of sentiment mean
anything Pendleton today was hoping
that Carpenter would win the fight
and expecting that It would be easy for
Dempsey. OF course, there were some
who wanted oven man OF Dempsey's
type to win just because he is a citizen
of these United States, but most OF the
fitns were strong for the Frenchman.
Most OF the betting was not on who
would win but on how long Carpenter
could stay There were very few
francs to be placed that Georges
could win, but most of the small bets
that were made were that Dempsey
would score n Knockout BY n certain
round. About -four rounds seemed to
be the opinion OF Pendletonians a<he |
probable length of the go. so with To-
cal men, for Carpenter TO stay |
throughout the fight means the loss
OF us much money as for him to hand
tho shipyard hero the sleep potion.

NORTH PARK WANTS DAILY MAIL
Big Territory is Worse Off for Mail
Service Than 1t Was Thirty to
Forty Years Ago.

A petition is being circulated in and
about Walden. Colo. asking for the
establishment of II daily mail stage
route between that town and Laramie
and it is said that every resident of
Jackson county is expected to sign it.
For nearly forty years that great
territory known as North Park has en-
joyed daily mail service. but on ac-
count of difficulties encountered by the
Colorado, Wyoming & Eastern Rail
road, the Laramie Plains Line but
two trains Il week have been running
over the line lately between Laramie
and Walden. Dissatisfied with the
plan of getting their mail but twice
Il week, and often only once a week. the
residents of the Park are now going
after a star route mail line that will
give them "A daily service.
Advices from Walden are to the eff
feet that the volume of the parcel post
business has increased to such an ex-
tent that the railroad company is
hauling mail matter at a loss. and does
not care whether it hauls mail or not.
The company receives about S125 Il
month for hauling the mail along the
whole line. II because the postof-
flee department is able to get the mail
hauled for that insignificant sum. il
has been willing to put up with the
poor service the road has been giving.
The stage mail route will probably
cost the government about eight times
as mush as is being paid the railroad
company for service over the whole
line of the road.
