carried to them. Thus water supply had a greater weight in determining the location of the buildings than ease of reaching the fields or the highway. 1t is not uncommon to find the best fields distant from the farm buildings, or to find the build ings far removed from the highway, which depreciates very materially the value of the farm.
 Again the arrangement of the buildings themselves, as regards ease in doing chores or other work about them, is important. Often the build ings were planned for one type of farming, and that having been dis continued and another taken up, they 1 are not suited to the particular kind of farming now practiced. Frequent | ly, however, alterations can be made that will improve the arrangement in many respects, but then, again, con ditions may be such that this cannot be done.

that is liable to corrupt the rest of the flock with her uneconOmic mo- tions regarding rations. She should be removed to a place where her example will have no effect on her sisters, or she should have her head cut off, for the habit is practically incurable. Poultrymen of the Uni ted States Department of Agriculture say it can be prevented by taking proper precautions.
 Eating eggs begins usualyl when an egg has been broken in the nest, or when it has been cracked by freez- ing and then thawed out. Keeping the nests we'll supplied with straw or other nesting material will reduce the danger of breakage, and darken- ing them will reduce the chances of broken eggs being found by the hens. It is a good idea to gather the eggs twice a day in cold weather so that none will be frozen.
 Hens that are not properly fed will have a ravenous appetite for eggs, both the shells and the con- tents, so that providing a well-bal- anced ration is some insurance against the development of the habit. In winter there is particular danger that some lack in the feed will develop an abnormal appetite, so plenty of animal matter, such as meat scraps, and lime in the form of

Ducks should be sold, usu- ally,after they are years old, al- though the best breeders or layers may be kept over their third year. say poultry specialists in the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
 In handling ducks pick thom up ty their necks, as their legs are very easily broken. Ducks lay their eggs early in the morning, and should be confined to the house or pen until 9:3O or 10 o'clock in the morning. If allowed to roam early in the morn ing they may lay in a pond or stream and the eggs may be lost.

The Arrangement of Farm
 Buildings a Labor Factor


 In choosing a farm, an ideal ar rangement of buildings and fields IS seldom found, and farm that may be very desirable in many other par ticulars may be undesirable in this respect. In the Eastern States the buildings and fields were laid out and arranged in the days when labor was comparatively cheap and there was little thought of saving it. At present, however, the saving of labor is an important factor, and the ar rangement of a farm may be such that much labor expense is entailed because of irregularity in the shape of fields, or because important fields are far from the buildings.
 In the Eastern States three factors have determined, more Or less, the location of the buildings, i. e., the water supply, the roads, and the area of good arabic land near by. In regions where spring water is gener- ally used the buildings were placed so that the water could be piped CT

Alfalfa Tea Not Recommended
 For Feeding Young Animals

Alfalfa tea, made by pouring bell ing water on hay and allowing it to steep for few hours, or by stirring alfalfa meal into cool water and straining the mixture after several hours, has been highly recommended from time to time for feeding young animals, but the evidence reviewed by the United States Department of Agriculture does not show any great advantage to be gained through the use of this liquor. Some experiment stations have found that pigs made better gains when corn meal and mid dlings were mixed with alfalfa tea rather than water, but the additional gains were hardly enough to pay for the increased expense. Calves fed alfalfa tea made poor gains and suffered much from SCOUTS. On the whole, the practice of making this tea for live stock should be discour- aged, says the department.

Breeding Ducks Should Be
 The Pick of the Flock

Ducks are usually mated in fiocks of about 30 females with 5 or males, as the drakes do not fight one another. The number of males may be reduced to 1 for every females about the first of March, and again changed a month later to 1 male for 8 to 10 females.
 Active, healthy females of medium size should be used for breeding that is, weighing about 8 pounds when mature. Only mature birds should be used as breeders. Select ducks with short necks, medium long bodies, flat backs, and of good depth to the keel bones. Watery eyes usu-

Proper Care of Paint or
 Xarnish Brukhen Important


 Brushes for applying stain, var nish, paint, and oil are manufactured in various sizes and qualities. In general, a wide brush of good quality will be found most convenient and economical and if properly cared for can be used over and over again, it is pointed out in Farmers Bulletin 1919, Floors and Floor Coverings, recently issued by the United States Department of Agriculture.
 A varnish brush may be kept in the varnish in which it is used, or, in case of shellac varnish, in alcohol; {; but brushes used in oil paint and oil stain, unless they are to be used again within a few days, should be thoroughly washed in turpentine or kerosene, rinsed in gasoline or ben zine, washed again in warm soapsuds, thoroughly shaken, and hung up to dry with the bristles down. Paint brushes that are to be used again the next day may simply be wrapped in several thicknesses of paper, or they may be kept for several days with the bristles submerged in turpentine or kerosene. If kerosene is used, the brush must be shaken and rinsed in turpentine before it is put into paint again. Brushes used in water stain may be washed and rinsed in clear water.

Meat scrap or some other animal feed high in protein is the one essen tial constituent of the mash which can not we'll be omitted. The Uni ted States Department of Agriculture found that a pen of bullets, on free range, which did not get meat scrap or any other animal-protein feed laid only 90 eggs each in a year, com pared with yields of from 125 to 15e eggs from pens fed rations contain ing meat scrap. The eggs from the pen where no meat scrap was fed cost 2.2 cents more a dozen for feed than when the meat scrap was included in the ration. Fish meal or fish scrap can be used to replace the meat scrap and compares favorably with a good grade of meat scrap containing the same per cent of protein.
 Skim milk or buttermilk, either sweet or sour, is excellent for replac- ing part or all of the meat scrap. The milk may be used in mixing the mash if a moist mash is fed, or it can be kept before the fowls as a drink. If clabbered and fed thick or like cheese, hens will eat enough of it to replace all of the meat scrap needed. A little bone meal makes an excel lent addition to the mash or it can be used to replace a part of the meat scrap. Green cut bone, if fresh and sweet, will also take the place of meat scrap if fed at the rate of one third to one-half ounce daily per hen.

oyster shels or bone, should be taken to provide it.
 Another bad habit enjoyed by these dietetic bolshevists is feather plucking from themselves or from other members of the flock. Improper feeding, insect pests, and too close confinement are the usual causes for starting this habit But it is not so hard to cure as egg eating. A plen- tiful supply of animal and green feed and good range or plenty of exercise by feeding in a deep litter, and freedom from insect pests will usu- ally bring the fowls back to normal appetite.

Feed Cost of Producing Eggs
 Variea Greatly With Breed

Careful poultrymen like to know what it costs them to produce dozen eggs, but it is not possible for any one to tell them. With certain infor- nation obtained through experiment tai feeding to start with, they must figure it out for themselves. Since the feed constitutes the principal cost, it is possible to get some idea of the real cost if the amount of grain used in making a dozen eggs is kown. The United States Depart ment of Agriculture has kept records ! that show about what amounts are used by general-purpose fowls and Leghorns, and by using the local price for grain in connection with these figures the feed cost of a dozen eggs can be obtained with fair accur- acy.
 The grain consumed to produce a dozen eggs will vary a great deal, depending upon the skill of the poul- tryman, but it is assumed that he knows how to feed economically. The general-purpose fowls and Leghorns used in this feeding work were kept on the test while bullets and yearl- ings. AS bullets the general-purpcse fowls produced 1905 eggs a year and 88.1 as yearlings. The Leghorns produced an average of 1887 eggs as bullets and 1249 as yearlings.
 The general purpose bullets ate in a year an average of 6.7 pounds of feed per dozen eggs produced, and the yearlings ate 9.6 pounds. The Leghorn bullets ate 4.S pounds and the yearlings 5.5 pounds. The gen eral-purpose bullets ate 1.9 pounds more feed in producing a dozen eggs than the Leghorn bullets, and the difference increases very rapidly with the age of the stock, the general purpose yearlings consuming i.1 pounds more feed per dozen eggs than the Leghorn yearlings; there fore the Leghorn yearlings produced eggs upon much less feed than the general-purpose breeds.
 The value of the general-purpose breeds for market, or for matching and breeding, makes them usually the most desirable breeds for the general farmer and the backyard poultry raiser, while the Leghorns are especially adapted for the corl- mercial egg farms, say the poultry men of the department.

Adiutant General Backs Move
to Keep Down Expenses.

The adjustment Of State drill pay
to members of the Indiana National
Guard. at an average of $4,000 a
year, Is proposed in bill to be intro
duced IN the coming session of the
Legislature. Adjutant General Smith
IS behind the proposal.
The proposed bill sets out that the
$4,000 will be used to provide club
rooms and recreation being demanded
by members of the Guard.
General Smith has taken the matter
up with Governor AIcCray. who is wait
ing for a copy of the bill before he ex-
presses himself.
Other changes also are being in
cluded in the bill. which would enable
the National Guard TO function on its
$4,000 appropriation. which will not
be increased this year. although the
Guard has increased from 5000 to
5000.
The State pay averaged 20 cents per
drill night. The Federal Government
pays a 81 additional for drill work.
