ANIMAL FEED is IMPORTANT

great Increase In our annual egg
production may be expected when
poultrymen and farmers In general rec,
ognize the Importance of animal feeds
IN the rations for the laying flock. The
demonstration of the superiority OF
reed combinations containing meat
scrap. milk and Its products, tankage.
or nsh scrap Is one of the most yaIu
able additions to our knowledge of
poultry management contributed BY
the United States Department Of Az
rculture and various experiment sta
tions.
Practically all experimental tests
have shown that these feeds will
greatly stimulate egg production, espe-
cialiy during the fall and winter
months. The fact that many farmers
get no eggs at all during this period
may usually be attributed to lack OF
essential animal feed The addition
Of from 10 to 20 per cent of one OF
those named would in most cases make
remarkable difference. Which one
OF these feeds should be used depends
upon local conditions and prices They
are of about equal value when the
protein content is taken into consid-
Grafton. The fish meal and tankae
have given just as good results as meat
scrap. Milk Is just as good when avail
able at low cost, and fresh butte:
milk and skim milk produce good re-
esults. In some sections condensed but
termilk and semi-solid buttermilk have
been fed with success.
N~In a test extending from November
to July 10 on the government famn
The Neshoba Democrat., 1922-09-07

at Beltsville Nd, 80 hens on a ration
without meat scrap or any animal feed
averaged IA eggs each. Another flock
of so hens of the same breed during
the same period laid an average OF 113
eggs each, the difference of 80 eggs be-
ing attributed to the ration which con-
tanned meat scrap. Both fiocks were
out on range whenever the weather
,zwas favorable, which made the DIFF
tference less than ii would have been
had the birds been kept in pens. In
a test made by Purdue university agri-
cultural experiment station animal
feeds were shown to have decided
value In the ration Of laying hens and
pullets. The pullets fed skim milk
averaged 140.2 eggs in a year; those
fed meat scrap, 1859 eggs, and those
in the check pen that received no an
imal feed Of any kind laid an average
Of only 61.2 eggs.
It has been shown that 1t Is impos-
sible to Judge the value Of hen as
a layer unless she has been fed ration
that would give her an opportunity
to demonstrate her capacity. PulIets
that have not yielded profitably be-
cause Of a ration lacking In animal
matter have become profitable layers
when the defect In the ration was corr
rected.

St. Peter at the Gate

st. Peter stood guard at the Golden Gate,
With solemn mein and air sedate,
When up to the top Of the Golden Stair
A nan aud woman ascending there,
Applied for admission. They came and
stood
Before St. Peter, so great and good,
In hopes the City of Peace to win
To ask St. Peter to let them in.
The woman was tall and lank and thin,
With a scraggy beardlet upon her chin.
The man was short and thick and stout
His stomach was built so II rounded out;
His face was pleasant, and all the while
He wore a kindly and gentle smile.
The choirs in the distance the echoes
awoke,
And the man kept still while the woman
spoke.
"Oh, thou who guardest the gate"
said she,
1--WE come hither beseeching thee
To let us enter the heavenly land,
And play our harps with the angel band.
OF me, ST, Peter, there is no doubt;
There's nothing from heaven to bar me
out
I've been to meeting three times a week
And almost always I'd rise and speak.
"I've told sinners about the day
When they'd repent Of their evil way;
I've told my neigbors-I've told 'em all
Bout Adam and Eve and the primevsl
fall;
I've showed them what they'd have TO do
II they'd pass in with the chosen few;
I've marked their path Of duty clear,
Laid out the plan for their whole career
"Ive talked and talked to 'em loud and
long,
For my lungs are good and my voice /.
strong.
So, good ST. Peter. you'll clearly see
The gate of heaven Is open to me.
But, my old man, regret to say,
Hasn't walked exactly in the narrow
way.
lie smokes and he swears, and grave
faults he's got,
Aud don't know whether he'll pass OF
not.
"IIe never would pray with an earnest

So had to leave him In sorrow there,
While /, with the chosen. united In
prayer.
He ate what the pantry chose to afford
While !, In my purity, sang to the Lord.
And II cucumbers were all he got,
It's a chance II he merited them or not
But oh, St. Peter, l love him so,
To the pleasures OF heaven please lei

I've done enough-a saint I've been;

This gate isn't kept as II ought to be;
You ought to stand right by the opening
there
And never sit down in that easy chair.
And say, St. Peter, my sight is
dimmed,
But don't like the way your whiskers
are trimmed;
| They're cut too wide and outward toss,
They'd look better narrow, cut straight
across.
Well, we must be going, our crowns to
win,
So open, st. Peter, we'll pass in!"
So St. Peter sat and stroked his staff.
But in spite Of his Office he had to laugh,
| Then said with hery CLEAN in his eye:
, who's tending this gateway You or 11'
And then he arose In his stature tall
And pressed button upon the wall,
And said to the imp who answered the
bell:
''Rscort this lady around to Eli"
The man stood still as a piece of stone;
Stood sadly, gloomily, there alone.
A life long settled idea he had,
That his wife was good and he was bad
He thought II the woman went down
