though the characteristic cafeteria
Zines" are not often in evidence at
these yards, it is needless to say that
the feed box is well patronized at meal
time.
Mr.. Hawkins at Lake Geneva was
the only one Of all the chicken farm
managers visited who feeds wet
mash. Regularly each morning at 10
o'clock the hens get their laying ra-
ton moistened to crumbly consis-
tency. When asked why he fed this
mash wet, Mr.. Hawkins countered with
"Why do you eat pie? l feed the
chickens wet mash for the same rea-
son-they like It, / also find this a
good way to get the hens to eat just
a little more"
Electric Lights Fool Hens.
On several of the farms included
in the tour, electric lights lengthen
the working day of the hens and there
by increase the contents of the egg
basket. Mr.. Buzzell of Delavan Lake
showed the visitors a patent clock
device which turns on the lights at
s o'clock every evening. AT the end
of an hour the device dims the lights,
like the setting sun, the hens return
to the roost and at 9:30 the switch
automatically turns the lights off.
Mr.. Hawkins at Browns Lake gives
his hens ID hours of light each day.
At four In the morning the lights are
automatically turned on and remain
until daylight. The lights are turned
on again for short period in the
evening. At the Tilden farms at Della
van the lights are turned on at dusk
and turned off shortly after seven
o'clock. At five in the morning the,
are turned on again and remain OF
until daylight.
Other Features of Tour.
A feature of the inspection trip taken
by the Walworth county poultrymen
was the stop at the farm Of Mr.. Haw-
kins at Burlington. Here many In
genious devices, the product of the In
yentive minds of Mr.. Hawkins and
his son, were in operation. Brooder
self-feeders that eliminate waste OF
feed and an automatic watering con-
trivance were among the more con-
spicuous of the inventions.
A $4,000 egg incubator was the
giant "baby chick hatcher" of the
trip. and was also located on the farm
of Mr.. Hawkins. In less than three
minutes all the eggs I'm this big machine
can be turned by means of a patent
device.

Interest in better poultry methods
among Wisconsin farmers is running
high.
County tours of successful poultry
farmers have been quite popular the
past year and these conferences have
been attended by large, enthusiastic
groups of farmers.
Up In the northwestern corner of
the state, Ed. Thompson, the county
agent of Burnett county, took dele
cation Of the poultrymen to visit q
big poultry plant just across the bor-
der at Barnum. In the southern part
of the state, two counties have been
active in sbetter poultry" tours. The
agricultural agent in Jefferson county
headed a trip covering several farms
In the country. This trip has be-
come an annual event.
Walworth Is the second southern
county to employ the poultry farm tour
to advantage. Eight or ten cars carry
Ing about 40 people made the tour, who
agreed that the trip was certainly
well worth WHILE The main idea was
to acquaint farmers with proper hous-
ing, dry mash feeding containing meat
scraps, and the development of pullets
for fall and winter laying.
Show Birds Get Scrubbing.
At the Halbach White Rock farm at
Waterford. the Walworth county visi-
tors were treated to an unusual sight.
Here wash room Is maintained by
Mr.. Halbach for the exclusive use
of his show birds. Here Biddy gets
q bath that beats the laundering given
white clothes by long ways. Four
times she gets thrilling dip. The
first time In the warm soapy water
that takes off the superfiuous dust.
Then follow two rinsings in clean
water. And then the egg queen Is
plunged into tub of water colored
with blueing to give her feathers a
snowy white appearance even as filmy
white ruffles and linen sheets are
handled in washing to keep them
white. After their bath the birds are
placed in clean coops In heated
room where they stay until dry.
Dry mash feed was the choice OF
most of the farms visited on the tour.
Self-feeders on the Tilden farms at
Delavan enable the chickens to eat
cafeteria style The menu is kept quite
varied by this method. In one division
Of the feeder is kept grit, another has
charcoal and oyster shells, third has
a meat scrap and an egg mash con-
taining powdered buttermilk. The
chickens are quite free to choose their

BOOSTING Green Lake County.

The managers of the Lawson farm,
located upon the hills overlooking

ing for an Improvement in the produc-
ton of farms of Green Lake county.
They have agreed to exchange with
the farmers of the county. bushel for

corn for any other corn which the
farmers may have grown. They have
500 bushels of high-class seed which
will be distributed in this manner.
Similarly they will supply 1920 Wis
consin No. 1 seed oats in exchange
for any kind of 1921 grain.

Smut in the Seed Oats.

Beware of smut in your seed oats
for the spring sowing" warns r. E.
Vaughan, plant pathologist at the Col
lege of Agriculture. I'VE recommend
a thorough treatment of seed oats
with formaldehyde, about one pound
to 80 bushels of the oats. This may
be applied by spraying, dipping, or the
machine method. Soaking the oats in
a water solution of formaldehyde is
the most thorough treatment. Formal
dehyde kills the smut. and by using
it on your seed oats you will insure a
good crop next summer"
