Progress and Profit in Poultry AF: H s' fgEss R1
FEEDING FOR EGGS HAS
REACHED HIGHER STATE

As the hen has Increased her produc-
tivity feeds have been more extensive
ly tested to find their suitability to the
hens requirements in egg making and
body maintenance.
Heretofore the only available data on
nutritive values or the several feeding
materials entering into the hens diet
ary has been taken from that compiled
in COW feeding ror milk.
Since the cows digestive organs and
her mastication function differ with
that of the hen it is not natural that
results will be proportionate in both
cases.
In the last five years nutr!tlve values,
so far as the hen is concerned. have as
sumed a very different attitude from
those ascribed to milk results is COW
feeding and this attitude is the result
of digestion experiments made with
the various cereals Tin whole, creeked,
cut and ground form) used in mills and
egg production.
Summed up, cereals in the making OF
eggs have a different value than when
used to produce milk, due to the diff
ference in the functions of the cows
and hens digestive tracts.
AS an illustration, the digestible nu-
triments in 100 pounds of cOrnmeal, fed
to livestock, is pounds of protein and
! 612 carbohydrates-in the case Of the
hen there are 6.93 pounds Of protein and
643 pounds of carbohydH' ties digested.
There is available to the hen in 100
/ pounds of oats 977 pounds of crude pro-
tein, 1.2S pounds of fiber and 1878 pounds
Of carbohydrates-on the other hand,
whole oats contain a total of 10.1 per
cent of fiber, 1888 per cent of protein
and 61.5 per cent of carbohydrates-the
hen digests but a small percentage Of
| fiber under the best conditions; her
digestive tract is not capable of han
ding fiber to the same extent as is that
Of the COW, horse, mule or hog.
Rolled oats offer a greater dgestible
portion than oats in any other form,
with practical absence of fiber.
Fiber is irritating to the hens intes-
tinal tract, causes liver upsets. bowel
disturbances and impacted crops, etc.
It is now generally accepted that
| fiber must be low, that protein must
be secured from animal sources in
i the main and that carbohydrates
must come from such grains as corn,
wheat, hulled oats, rye and Kaffir
corn.
Kaffir corn Is suggested as a result
Of the more recent nutritive determina-
tions, as the nearest substitute for
wheat Grains carrying heavy fiber con-
tents such as alfalfa meal, wheat bran
and wheat middlings, are not as digesti-
BILE and, therefore, ara lower in nu-
tritive value than cornmeal and
wheat flour.
Animal proteins, in the order given,
are best obtained by the hen, in the
order given, from meat, bonemeal,
fish "a very close second), digested
tankage, blood meal. fat extracted
soy beanmeal and last dried butter
milk.

There seems TO be an unusual inten-
hion on the part of the 500 egg layers
Engaged in the twelfth Philadelphia
North American egg laying competition
to outdo all previous efforts in the third
week of all years preceding the present
event. for the total output was 1892 eggs,
a clear gain of 214 eggs more than the
preceding week and a gain of 500 more
than any corresponding week in any
year.
Probably the more notable in weekly
performances is the score of 81 eggs
made by pen 13-for the fall Of the year
this is a rather high score and one that
will stand for while as a weekly yield,
especially if cold weather becomes
fixed and of several weeks duration.
Twenty-Five pens laid 20 or more eggs

a reliable recipe for detaching these
human sponges from, the easy marks
on which they have fastened them
selves. For few of US are so lucky
as not to be forced into doing the
sturdy oak stunt to some parasitic
about us, and that we lack the nerve
to cut away.
We all know what we ought to do.
We ought to slam our door in the

ought to put a Yale lock on our
pocketbooks, and refuse to hand out
to the social panhandIers, but we
haven't got the backbone to do it. We
go along letting the dead beats work
anu we OeSSTN0 68dCIly WHAT we
get for being the poor weaklings that
we are.
The chief of these grafters-the
really big sponge-Is the relative who
believes that a blood tie is a financial
bond. and that because you happen to
lions to support her. Nine-tenths of
the families you know are the prey of
this sort of a hanger-oIi.
A woman's husband dies, or her
parents die, and her home is broken
up She forthwith goes and settles
down upon her nearest kin, and if she
is poor she expects them to support
her the balance OF her days, no mat
ter how Strengthened in circumstances
her victims are, nor how husky and
ablebodied7 she is. Many a boy is kept
out of college, many a girl is deprived
of the pretty clothes that would give
her a chance to make a good marriage
because Aunt Fannie, or Cousin Sallie
is sponging on the family and soaking
up all the money that might go for
advantages for the children.
Very often people are spiritual par
asites as well as financial ones. The
happiness Of unnumbered families is
shattered by the presence in it of a
mOther-in-law who has come to live
with her son or daughter because she
was lonesome. She knows she is a
source of discord, and that she is en-
danRering the stability of the home
itself, but she stays on. Spongers
have no fine feelings that make them
sensitive to the good of others.
Apparently, it never occurs to the
parasitic woman that it is a disgrace
full thing for any woman who is not
old, or sick, to expect anyone else to
support her. Nor does it occur to the
parasitic mother that she is doing her
children a deadly wrong when she
takes her happiness at the expense of
theirs.

Kansas Democrats Make Few
Changes in Platform.
February Resolutions Are Re-
affirmed in Topeka Meeting.
ASK REPEAL |. R. COURT Law
Would Abolish Many State
Boards and Commissions.
Henderson s. Martin Is Elected
Council Chairman.

Democrats will go thru the cam
paign following the beaten paths laid
out by the national convention in San
Francisco two years ago and the Bour-
ruary. In q very few words the Demo-
Gratis defined their plans for new po-
iitical pioneering. February resolu-
lions were reaffirmed.
The Democrats went gingerly and
cautiously about their business. Their
workers secuted in the lobby of the
National hotel and emphasized the
rumors of war and disturbance in the
Republican camp. In fact so much
time was spent watching the Repub-
very little business on their own ac-
count.
For Repeal OF Court Law.
This fall the Democrats are bound
to a pledge to repeal the industrial
court law. In order to make every
one happy, tho, the platform declares
for a substitution. 1t calls for a sub
stitute board which will hear. and de-
termine any industrial dispute but
shall have no power to enforce it's
orders.
The Democrats favor repeal of the
highway commission act and would
abolish useless boards and commits
sionS. Republicans in control in the
state and nation were flayed for their
extravaganza and inefficiency and q
change in the business management
of the country in favor of the Demo-
Gratis was urged.
There is comparatively little new
material in the Bourbon platform. The
course which the party is to follow
had been marked in February and
their party council did not try to dis
turb the former declaration.
Martin Heads Council.
Henderson s. Martin. of Lawrence
was elected chairman of the party
council. w. c. Lansdon of Salina
headed the. platform committee. J.. j.
Wilson, chairman of the Allen county
committee, was selected to head the
state committee. Plans for opening
state headquarters and financing the
campaign activities were discussed by
party leaders. Practically all of the
state candidates were present for the
meeting.
