TO DRAW OR
NOT TO DRAW

POultrymen still discuss the relative
merits Of drawn and undrawn poultry.
Practice varies in different communi.
les. Opening the body undoubtedly
exposes the internal surface to the
air which always contains microorgan.
sms, and thus may hasten decompo-
,itiOn; but 1t should be remembered
also that the viscera decompOse more
rapidly than other parts of the body,
and il left they may faint or infect
the rest of the bird.
In elaborate experiments with
drawn, partly drawn, and undrawn
poultry. it was found that undrawn
jirds spoil least quickly, and partly
lrawn ones less quickly than the fully
lrawn ones from which, not only the
5iscera, but also the heads and feet,

NO SMOKING DURING
fire DANGER PERIOD
Secretary Wallace Issues Order
for Protection of National
Forests.

Smoking, during periods Of fire dan
ger on National Forest lands within
the cyclone-swept AREA OF the Olympic
Peninsula, Wash. has been prohibited
on and after July l, by Secretary o.
Agriculture Wallace in amendment tt
the rules and regulations for the use
and protection of the National Forests
Exception to the smoking rule is made
on improved camping grounds desig

places of human habitation.
Area Covers s40 Square Miles.
The area covered by the no-smokine
order amounts to some $4,000 acres
and includes all of the Olympic Ma

The fire trap created by the cyclone
Of January 20, which swept the for

Curb the Fire Menace.
Realizing the menace of fire in this
great blow-down area, the state and
ederal governments are cooperating

An orange box makes a good nest.
Remove the top. put the box on its
side, and nail strip about three
inches wide along the bottom in front.
1t is preferable to fasten this box to
the wall, as it takes up too much room
on the floor. Each box, the middle
piece being left intact, makes two
nests. There ought to be one nest
for every four or five hens. Straw or
other material used for nests should
be kept clean and fresh. Be sure to
keep enough straw in the box to pre-
vent eggs striking the floor. II an
egg breaks, the hen may learn to eat
it, and this is a difficult habit to
break.

Racing Hard on Engine

The vicious practice of racing the
engine can not be too strongly con.
demned, as it tends to loosen the bear
ings and make the engine knock. II a
connecting rod cap comes off during
the process the engine will be wrench
ed. The only excuse for racing the en-
CINE is while setting the high.speed
adjustment OF the .carbureter. After
this is set there is no further use for
the practice.

One of the most notable features

fact that oils and rails showed tend

Economy in the direction OF food.
stuffs is always desirable. Cut bone
is a cheap food, and mixture Of equal
parts of bran. middlings. ground oats,
cornmeal and linseed meal, twice a
week, is an agreeable change for the
hens.
Glover is also one of the cheapest
and best foods, while sunflower seed.
millet Seed sorghum seed and cooked
turnips are excellent.
All of these foods are cheap. for
two reasons. First, they cost but little,
and provide the hens with a variety in
the ration; and next, because when
the hens are so fed, they will produce
a larger number of eggs. No food is
cheap if it does not promote egg pro-
duction.
