load. Where this straw is wet, of
course, the rack will not be needed.
New straw that will not be used for

wheat, and this will furnish q good
covering and make good fertilizer.
One farmer last winter reported that
the use of straw prevented winter

BEST FEED FOR LAYING HENS
Euus Cannot BE Obtained Where Fowls
Are Given Grain Alone-Mash
ls Needed.

Grain alone will not produce eggs.
They are made up largely of protein,
and grain contains on an average only
about 10 per cent protein. A good
mash feed is necessary in order to
produce enough whites to balance the
yolks.
The correct way to feed mash is
to keep it before the hens all the time.
Grain feeds should be fed sparingly.

Vegetable STORAGE.

The best place to store vegetables
for winter use Is in frost-proof stor-

Kill Next Years Bugs.


Raking up the garden and
burning stalks, vines and other
vegetable debris in the fall will
cause a shortage Of winter
homes for the bugs and fewer
insect pests to bother next sum-
mer, according to vegetable men
at Oklahoma A. and M. college.
Scores of vegetable diseases are
thus destroyed also. 1t is said.
No Gull vegetables should be
left lying around to tempt rab-
bits, which later may bark the
fruit trees. The garden has
earned Its winter rest. and it
will rest better If it Is thor
oughly cleaned up in the fall.

IMPROVEMENTS in
FISH HATCHERY in
DULUTH N

Duluth. Mimi, Feb. I2.-1mprovc-
ments contemplated for a half score
years will be made possible for the
Duluth Fish Hatchery should an
amendment to the sundry civil bill
providing $4,000 for the hatchery be
approved by congress-.
S. P. Wires, superintendent CT the
Duluth hatchery, said the last i'm
proyement of any consequence to the
local government institution. was -12
years old.
The amendment to the sundry civil
bill which will allow the funds to
the Duluth hatchery was made at the
request of Senator Knute Nelson of
Minnesota. The bill was reported to
the senate last Friday.
The Duluth Fish Hatchery was es-
tablished 35 years ago.. 1t is a fed
eral institution and supplies fish for
Minnesota, Michigan ard Wisconsin
waters of Lake Superior and small
lakes in Minnesota and North Dakota.
h hatchery property consists Of
seven acres. 1t has a frontage OF
about 500 feet on Lake Superior and
to the east is bounded by the Lester
river, a small stream. The location
of the plant is considered one Of the
most favorable in the states.
First attention to improving the
gravity water system of the hatchery
and the construction Of a cottage for
the foreman, will be given, should
the appropriation be allowed. At pres
ent the foreman occupies quarters
in the main plant. In case special
quarters are built this space will be
devoted to furthering the hatchery
work. Twelve years g a residence
was built. for Superintendent Wires.
n At the present time there are H.
10000 eggs, hardly as large as u
good sized pin head, in the process
of Matching out as many minnows at
the fish factory" OF this large 'set-
ting" Of eggs 10000, 600 are white
fish. 1000. 600 lake trout and $50, 0O0
brook trout.
The Matching season will open
about April Is and continue through
to May /, Superintendent Wires said.
F., After the small fish are large enough
to stand the trip, they viii be placed
in cans of water. put aboard spcclaIt
equipped railway cars operated by the
state game and fish commission and
shipped to planting places.
The white fish eggs. Mr.. Wires said,
were gathered along the shores OF
Lake Erie. The minnows they pro-
duce viii! be planted in Minnesota
and Michigan waters Of Lake Super
ior. The large trout eggs came from,
/, Lake Superior. These minnows will
be placed in lakes of Minnesota and
Michigan. The brook trout egg were
| gathered along the streams of Maine,
The minnows they produce will be

Preparing Links For
Amateur Golf Meet

ST. Louis. Feb. 12.-Diggers OF pit
falls for the unwary golfer began
! work today on the picturesque links
of the St. Louis Country club. which
will be the scene of the amateur golf
championship Of the United States
Golf association. TO add a few touches
! to the severe test already provided by
the sourse for every hot from driver
to putter.
The links. occupying $50 acres for
merly known as the Farm of the Sew
en- Hills, has the distinction of being
the only course in the world that is
entirely panoramic. A paved road
winds around n through the proper
ty in such a way as to afford a view
| of the play on every hole from a car.
Even the long 18th hole. which lies
two fair ways from the road, tits to-
ward the highway so that the play on
the greensward IAN be seen. The drive
winds in sue a way that one need
not eve turn around to keep pace
with the golfers, but may follow them
stroke by stroke from the first tee to
the 18th green.
While Stewart Maiden, the club pro-
! fessional, has a bevy of men at work
already. due to the open winter, the
course has need of only a few small
| pits to make extra. hazardous a couple
of green's that had been we'll protect
ed by natural lie of the land. But these
greens could be won by a vicious top
up a hillside. and it was to compel a
cut pitch shot that the work was I'M
dertaken.
Perhaps no golf links in tho country
has SO much individuality in all is
holes or possesses is holes with no
: two alike. An infinite variety of play
is furnished. Even the drives are never
the sa me if the player aims to AXE adj
vantage of the topography to aid him
in getting his second shot home by
skill. A golfer who plays the course
once can readily remember each hole
! for the rare sport it furnishes on ac-
count of some unique feature.
The links was laid out 5 years ago
under the direction of c. E. McDon-
aid. now a broker in New York. who
with Douglas Tweedie planned the

Michigan n Wisconsin. Watl-eyed
pike. white fish and lake and brook
trout minnows are produced at the
local hatchery.
Pike spawn is not gathered until
the latter part Of April, Mr.. Wires
said. AS pike eggs do not require
the same length of time for Matching
as other species, it is not necessary
to collect the spawn until spring.
The late spring months are the bus
lest times of the year at the hatchery.
according to Mr.. Wires. and arrange
ments are now being made to care for
the millions of minnows when they
begin emerging from the spawn.
