Poultrymen resort to every possible
means to get their hens to eat a great
deal of feed, especially in the winter
when the days are short. One way is
to cut the morning scratch feed to
about half. The hungry bird then
goes to the mash trough and gorges
on the dry mash. Then to increase
the consumption of mash some of it
is fed wet at noon and the hens will
eat it when they would take no more

HENS THAT DO NOT MOLT UNTIL
LATE ARE BEST EGG PRODUCERS

(Prepared by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Hens that devote too much attention
early in the season to the fall STYLES in
feathers are not the kind that please
the flock owner 1t costs too much to
support them and they demand too
long a vacation period. But the hen
that wears her old clothes until
autumn has almost passed is the best
OF the flock, for she has kept on lay
ing since the previous fall or winter
SO now when you see a bird that looks
shabbier than the others, do not con
clude that she is of the no-account
kind and that her sinartly dressed
sisters are the ones to keep.
Take Short Vacation.
Of course some of the hens that
molted earlier, say in August and Sep
tember, are profitable enough to keep,
but the cream of the. flock is made up
of hens that do not change their
feathers until October or November.
Their mOlting will require only a few
weeks and they will probably. be laying
uSulu DN the ISL VI y. lie
poor ones, the early-mOlting loafers,
will not begin until about this time,
even though they have been resting
since the middle of the summer. 1t
takes one about two months and the
other twice that long to get back into
production.
The poultry keeper who has an eye
for business win not neglect this worn
looking late layer, for she is the best
croft maker he has. She needs a
highly nutritious ration If she is to be
in the best condition to start on
another year of high production. When
she quits laying and starts to molt she
has as much need for ration strong
in protein as she has when she is
shelling out the eggs, as feathers are
highly nitrogenous in their makeup.
They use the materials supplied by
beef scrap, gluten feed, and oil meal
The oil meal is very effective in keep
ing the feathers in healthy condition.
Hens that lay eggs late in the fall
and in the winter are really producing

dozen eggs from 6.7 pounds Of feed,
and LeghOrn pullets laid the same
number from As pounds.
Simple mixtures are usually the
most desirable As the fall advances
and the days grow shorter the birds
should be encouraged TO put away as
much feed as possible during the day
so that their bodies will have plenty
TO work on for all of the "A hours.
A good handful of scratch grain for
each bird at night will fill the crop. 1t
is not de sirable that the hens be made
TO work very hard for this feed. Be
sure that the hens go to roost with a
full crop.
In making ur rations it is necessary
to adhere to standards within certain
limits. but some feeds may be sub
stituted for others, as barley, wheat,
and oats for corn. However, meat
scrap and other animal-prOtein feeds
can nofbe replaced by high-vegetable-
protein feeds. All changes should be
made gradually, as sudden changes
may decrease egg production.
A great many poultrymen and live
stock feeders now believe that If the
animal has free choice it will select
the ration that is most suitable. At
the government farm at Beltsville, Nd,
the following mash was made up by
keeping account of the amounts of
the different feeds a laying flock con-
sumed:
Samples of Balanced Rations.
Mash. Scratch Mixture.
16 lbs. corn meal l lb cracked corn
61a lbs. meat scrap l lb. wheat
] lb. bran l Id. oats
h. middlings
Here is simple ration that has
given very good results with Leghorns
but that has proved too fattening for
Rocks and Wyandottes. Meat scrap
it will be seen, makes up over 25 per
cent of the mash.
Mash. Scratch Mixture.
3 lbs. corn meal 2 lbs. cracked corn

the preceding ration, the following,

effect on the resulting OdOr than the
number of bulblets. Those full of
Juice contaminate flour more readily
than drier ones.
One of the serious results of the
presence Of garlic in wheat is the
clogging of the corrugations of the
rolls in the mills so that they cannot
function properly. Under such con
ditions it is sometimes necessary for
the mills to shut down two or three
times a day in order to scrape and
wash the rolls. This slows up the
work, reduces the output, and in
creases the cost of production per
unit. There is little demand for flour
made from garlicky wheat, therefore
mills have to discount it when it is
sold from % cents to 81 a barrel. 1t
is used chiefly for blending with sweet
flours.
The difficulties of removing garlic
bulblets from wheat suggest the i'm
pOrtance of its eradication from the
fields whenever this is possible. Wild
-soft-shelled and hard-shelled.
This fact has been used as a basis
for the recommendations of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture for its eradica-
ton. The sOft-shelled bulbs germinate
in the late summer or fall, while the
hard-shelled bulbs form new plants
the following season. Late fall plow-
ing is recommended to destroy the
plants from the sOft-shelled bulbs be-
fore they form new bulbs.
Should Be Eradicated From Fields.
The field should be planted to a
titled crop the following spring. ANY
crop so planted should be carefully
TILED, preferably with the knife or
sweep type of implement This will
destroy the plants arising from the
hard-shelled bulbs. As the hard bulbs
last two years it will be necessary TO
repeat fall plowing, followed by an
other titled crop. Rye may be sown
after the late fall plOwing and turned
under for green manure the following
spring.
Many farmers make practice of
throwing weeds of various sorts ont
of the bundles at the time of shock
ing wheat. 1t has been found that
if the entire product of the field is
removed from the land at harvest
time, great care taken in DIanttng
only seed that is free from garlic and
other weeds, and proper crop rotation
practiced considerable progress in gar
lie eradication can be made within Il
few years. 1t is believed by depart
ment officials that if this is done if
will be possible in time to eliminate
or at least greatly reduce, the garlic
in the fields.

CEMENT FLOOR FOR FEEDING
Farmer Should Remember to Give
Slope to One Side to Insure
Necessary Drainage.

Farmers who build cement feeding
floors should remember to give the
floor a good slope to one side. This
insures good drainage, facilitates
cleaning and makes it possible for the
feeding floor to completely fulfill its
function of providing a clean place to
feed hogs. Some farmers have so To-
Gated these floors as to get Il large
amount of rainwateT from roofs of
nearby buildings, which fushes the
floor after each rainstorm and helps
materially to keep them clean and
sanitary.

an out-of-season crop, for it is normal
for the hen to lay for a time in the
spring and early summer and rest for
the remainder of the year. Profitable
hens are really those that have the.
capacity to force their egg-making
machinery, but they must have the
right sort Of feed with which to do it.
That means feeding well-balanced ra-
tions designed for the particular class,
and sometimes for the particular
breed. A balanced ration is a combina-
tion of feeds which furnish just the
necessary amount of nutrients to pro-
duce the highest and most economical
egg yields. The amount of feed needed
TO produce dozen eggs varies with
the kind of birds. According to ex-
periments conducted by the United

Peace Brings Woe to Alley Dwellers

n ATIFICATION Of the treaty Of
X peace with Germany will be a
source Of relief Ia the national
government, but ii will automatically
bring before the District commission
ers the problem of providing for the
$500 persons living in alleys in the
city.
One year after peace is proclaimed
by the President all structures in
alleys must be abandoned for dwelling
purposes under law enacted by con-
gress back in 1914. The law was
slated 70 go into effect July /, 1918,
but because OF the housing congestion
which existed here at that time con-
gress continued the date to one year
after peace.
The treaty has been signed by Ger
many and may be ratified anu pro-
claimed before the end Of this year.
In that event the district would have
only II months in which to prepare for
enforcement of this legislation.
Although the present board Of com
missioners has not had occasion to
look into the alley law, the recent sign
ing of the peace treaty has brought it

in the near future they will take up the
question.
