POULTRY
FATS
TURKEY EGGS FOR HATCHING
They Should Be Gathered Daily Where
There lie Danger Of Them
Being Destroyed.

When there is danger that turkey
eggs may be chilled or destroyed they
should be gathered every day, and q
nest egg left In each nest. Skunks,
opossums, rats, crows, and dogs are
the greatest destroyers of turkey eggs,
although occasionally minks, raccoons,
coyotes, wolves, foxes, cats, and certain
large snakes also eat eggs. When a
turkey hen has been disturbed by one
of these pests, she may change her
nest to some other place and abandon
the eggs.
Eggs for Matching should be kept at
a temperature of as near so degrees or
go degrees f. as possible, and should
hi turned over every day, say poultry
specialists in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. They should be
Jared as little as possible while han
dling and should be incubated while
fresh, never holding more than tive
weeks If 1t can be avoided. 1t Is an
excellent plan to mark the date on
each egg as 1t is gathered, in order to
be certain that no eggs are kept tor
long before they are incubated.

FACTS
HARVESTING SUPPLY OF ICE
Few Tools Are Required on Average
Farm and Il 10 One Of Real
Paying Crops.

prepared by the United States Department
of AgricultuIe.l
Cooling milk on the farm will reduce
milk losses. All that is required is a
supply of ice and little care. Natural
ice can be harvested on farms where
50 per cent of our milk is produced,
and 1t Is one of the real paying crops
Of the farm. Few tools are required,
and for the average farm two saws,
two pairs of tongs, two Ice hooks, one
pointed bar and one straight board for
marking, should be sufficient.
The first thing to do is to provide
q place to store the ice. If Ice Is scarce
and hard to put up, 1t would probably
be well to build an ice house, plans for
which may be obtained from the dairy
division, United States Department of
Agriculture. When Ice is abundant
and easily harvested it may be cheaper
to disregard the shrinkage factor and
store 1t in a pit, cellar shed or other
place, and insulate 1t with sawdust or
shavings. If this is done 20 to so per
cent additional Ice should be provided
to allow for shrlnkage.
Where cream only is to be cooled
allow at least One-half ton of Ice per
COW. For cooling milk, allow IN tons
per COW. These quantities should be
enough to leave margin for house
hold use; but it is better to have too
much than too little. Whenever prac-
ticable build the ice house In the form
Of cube, allowing As cubic feet Of
space for each ton Of ice.
The pond or stream selected for cut
ting ice should, of course, be free from
dirt or contamination from barnyards,
privies or refuse heaps. The ice should
be kept clear of snow, as snow retards
freezing. When it has frozen to suf-
ficient depth mark off the surface into
cakes Of the desired size, making sure
that the lines form rectangles. Cut out
a strip of Ice with the saw the width
Of the cake desired, and force this striT
under the ice. thus forming channe
to the landing and loading place. Large
strips may then be sawed Off and float
ed to the landing, where they may be
cut up into cakes. These cakes are
then hauled TO the storage place and
packed in as close together as possible
and all cracks and air spaces filled In
with sawdust. Cakes that are cut
squarely and are uniform in size ant
shape pack together with less air space
and are convenient to handle.
The cost of ice is small, and thu

years old, although the best breeders
or layers may be kept over their third
year, say poultry specialists in the
United States Department Of Agricul-

In handling ducks, pick them up by
their necks, as their legs are very cas-
fly broken. Ducks lay their eggs
early in the morning, and should be
confined to the house or pen until 8 30
or 10 o'clock in the morning. If al

they may lay in pond or stream and
the eggs may be lost.

cow TURNS FEED INTO FAT
Great Care Should Be Exercised In
Selecting Fats and Starches, Civ
ing Much Protein.

II dairy COW is inclined to lay on
fat, there Is very definite step to
be taken. First, use great care In
selecting her feed, limiting the fats
and starches, and feeding heavily on
proteins. If she still turns her feed
into fat instead of milk, let her have
her own way, and prepare her for the
fulfillment Of her destlny-the packing

Months and Suffer II House 10 Not
Cleaned often.

In the summertime the poultry keep
err is naturally inclined to slight clean
