ONLY A DAD.

Bringing little Of gold or fame
To show how we'll he has played the
game:
But glad in his heart that his own re-

To see him come home and hear his
voice.
Only a dad Of brood of four.
One of ten million men or more.
Flooding along in the daily strife,
Bearing the whips and scorns of life,
With never a whimper of pain or hate.
For the sake OF those who at home
wait.
Only a dad, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one OF the surging crowd.
Toiling, striving, from day to day,
Facing whatever may come his way,
Silent whenever the harsh condemn
And caring it all for the love of them
Only a dad. but he gives his all

KENTONRARMRR SHOWS HOW
GOOD FEED FOR HENS PAYS.

Lexington, Ky.--A striking example
of how good feed and .he right kind Of
care helps hens to lay moro eggs and
then keeps them laying consistently
month after month through the whole
year Is foun din the records of Harry
A. Kendig, a Kenton county farmer
living near Kenton, who Is co-operat-
ing with the extension division of the
the College of Agriculture in handling
his flock Of Barred Plymouth Rock
hens as demonstration to show the
value OF recommended poultry prac-
tees, Mr.. Kendig, along with 46 other
co-operators in the state, has just fin
fished the records which he kept for
the year ending November l. His flock
was the second highest producing one
out OF the AZ being handled as demon
strations, each OF his hens having laid
an average of 1856 eggs in the year.
This is more than three times as many
eggs as are laid ythe average Kenn-
lucky hen.
Mr.. Kendig started keeping records
November 1, 1922, with 100 hens and
pullets in his laying flock. That month
he got less than an average fone egg
from each OF his hens. However, good
feed and the right kind OF care recon-
mended by the college poultrymen
soon began to have its effect and in
February Mr.. Kentdig got more than
IL eggs from each of the hens in his
flock The following month this was
increased to more than "a eggs from
each hen and from then until the time
his records for the first year were
completed on November 1 each OF his
hens never failed to lay less than an
average OF II eggs month. This con-
sistent production proved to be one Of
The big factors in helping him get an
average of 1856 eggs for the year from
zach of his hens. Mr. Kendig had
culled his flock down to So hens by
he time the first year frecord keep
ing was ended.
The dry mash that he fed his hens
was mixture of bran, middlipgs, corn
neal and tankage, OF which 20 per
cent, was tankage, and in addition. he
fed sour skimmilk when he had It on
the farm. The grain mixture that he
used was made of corn and oats. Mr.
Kendig followed the practice Of giving
ii shens plenty Of grain in the winter
o keep them in good flesh. In the sum-
ner. the grain feed was cut down in
order to make the hens eat more mash
80 that their egg production would not
drop during the hot months OF the
year.

Let's Have Better Dairy Cows

The dairy business in the North Star
district is now in it's infancy. Let's
give it the right start like all infants
ought to have.
I believe the first step towards bet
ter dairy cows and success is to get
rid of all our homegrown scrub bulls
and get one OF two pure-bred sires in
the district.
OF course most of us can't afford to
own a pure-bred sire individually, but
why can't we cooperate and chip in
and buy one.
Think it over and talk it over with
your neighbor and perhaps before
winter is over we can do something
towards better dairy cows.
Most of our older farmers have
shares in the Exeland Farmers Coop
erative creamery, and a lot of us who
have not are patronizing it just the
same. and every farmer in the district
ought to patronize it or any other con-
Germ that is run by the farmers and
for the farmers.
Yours for better dairying,
F. w. DOEGE.
