FEED NECESSARY FOR
HENS DURING WINTER
Insects and Green Stuff Are
Plentiful in Summer.
Provision Must Be Made In Severe
Weather for Animal Food and
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES for
Production of Eggs.

PREPARED by the United States Depart ment
of Agricultural
During the summer months the farm
er's flock balances its ration of grain
and seeds with bugs, worms, and green
stuff. and the farmer need not worry
about egg production if his fowls have
been well culled. But winter feeding re-
auires that provision be made to supply
the deficiency of animal feed and succu-
lence. The absence of these essentials to
good egg production is responsible in
large degree for the falling off in yield
during cold weather.
Animal food, or other feeds rich in
protein, may be easily supplied on
most farms, particularly where skim
milk or buttermilk is available. The
liking of hens for these dairy by-prod-
ucts is a good indication of the need
for what they contain. Meat scrap Is
another excellent protein feed that
has become standard In poultry ratiOns.
Glover and alfalfa leaves provide a
combination of protein feed and green
stuff. Often enough of them may be
swept up from the barn floor where
the hay Is handled. A good way to
prepare them for the flock is to pour
boiling water over them, cover the
c~ontainer and let them steam for a
time, when they will be ready to feed
alone or in a mash.
Sprouted oats has become one of the
best-known providers Of succulence in
winter. Plans for making sprOuters may
be obtained from the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. Mangels and
cabbage, as well as many other vegeta-
bles, are appreciated by the hens.
In general, winter feeding is much the
same as summer feeding. On the gov
eminent poultry farms the same rations
are used in summer and winter. OF
course, in summer it is unnecessary to
feed s%ucculent feed when the birds
have range and are able to get plenty
Of grass, alfalfa, or similar feed. The
farmers flock, however, is an excep-
ton to this rule, as in many cases
there Is enough waste grain, seeds,
ETC., in summer to supply much of the
feed required.

CHAPTER XII.
Around Robin Hoods Barn.

After we had covered possibly two
of the four miles between the CHINA
bar and the railroad station, the dog
branched Off to the left along the
mountain ON a road that was little
better than a bride path through the
forest, and which, for the time, kept
It's level on the slope, neither ascend
ing nor descending.
"H0w about II, DaddyT l asked.
"Where does this trail go?"
"Give 1t time enough, 1t out

mountain"

Never got far enough along to be a

1t was certainly singular that the
dog should be leading US to an aban-
doned mining project, but Barney
seemed to know perfectly well where
he was going.
In one of the gulch headings there
was a patch of wash sand In what was,
In wet weather, q runway for water,
but which was now only a streamless
ravine with a few damp spots In 1t.
Here Daddy called a halt, and while
the dog sat down and yawned at us
and otherwise manifested his impa-

SUNFLOWER GOOD AS SILAGE
Crop Regarded az Successful and
Profitable by Many Farmers In
Canadian Provinces.

Many Canadian farmers are grow
ing sunfiowers for ensilage and the
crop Is said to be very successful and
profitable. This movement was start
ed experimentally a few years ago
and proved such a great success that
many hundreds Of acres were planted
last spring and the acreage will be
much greater next year. Silos are be-
Ing erected In large numbers all over
Canada for storing the i~saterial.

ly was, | could see, or rather feel, that
Daddy Hiram was growing increasing
" nervous as we pushed on. | didn't
blame him so far from 1t, | was shar-
ing the nervousness in full measure.
What were we going to find at the
end Of the trailf
1t must have been at least two miles
beyond The damp sand patch that the
dim trail we had been following ended
abruptly at the abandoned mining
claim spoken Of by Daddy Hlram-the
Haversack. The starlight was bright
enough to show us what there IA to
be seen, which wasn't much a couple
Of tu~inble-down shacks, a shed that
had probably been the prospectors'
blacksmith shop, and a tunnel mouth
that had once been securely boarded
up, but from which the bulkheading
was nov partly fallen away.
Once more Daddy hunted for a dead
pine branch and lighted a torch. The
shacks were empty, of course, and
while we did not go into the tunnel,
we could see, through the broken bulk
heading, that it was half filed with
caved-in earth and broken stone. Un-
derfoOt there was only the cOarse
gravel Of. the tunnel spoil, and a full
troop Of cavalry might have passed
over it without leaving any visible
trail. Worse than all, Barney, the pie
faced collie, appeared now to be COM
pletely at fault. He was running
around In circles with his nose TO the
ground a pretty plain indication that
he had lost the trail.
'Tll be bat-clawed and owl-hooted

puzzled.
He hadn't any the best of me there,
and 1t was precisely at this point that
the s%plit-faced dog took it into his
head to add another snarl to the knot
ted tangle. After galloping around all
over the place half a dozen times,
shifting at everything In sight, he had
finally come to a stand with his nose
at a crack In the tunnel boarding. The
next instant he had leaped through
the hole where the planks had fallen
away, and presently we heard him
whining and scratching behind the
bulkhead.
l don't know about Daddy Hiram's
heart, but | do know that mine was
doing ~flip-faps and back somersaults
when we ran up to see what the dog
had found In the tunnel. For a half
second after Daddy thrust his torch
through the hole | was afraid to look
scared stiff at the thought of what /
might see. When l did look, l saw the
dog digging frantically at the heap Of
caved-in earth, and, Of course to my
d~isordered imagination, the hole in
which he was ~burrowing transformed
itself at nc into a newly made grave.
Good God!" l gasped; and then :
Look, Daddy-right under your
torch I"
He looked and staggered back, and
would have dropped the blazing pine
branch If / hadn't caught 1t from his
hand. For what he saw, and what l
had seen, was the unmistakable print,
In the soft earth just inside of the
~planking, Of one of Jeanie's brown
leather riding-boots.
In another h~alf-second we were both
in the tunnel and Daddy was heaving
the dog aside from the hole he was
paving out In the earth fall. Snatch
ing up a broken-handled shovel that
the former tunnel drivers had thrown
away, the old man flung himself mad
ly upon the dirt pile. and since there

To assist rural organizations in

community buildings, based on an in

buildings in all parts Of the country.

ing, management and use of a few
representative types; the second.
Farmers Bulletin 1173, Plans of

Methods of Financing.
It is pointed out in this third bull
letin that though community buildings
are financed in a number Of ways, as
individual donations, local industry,
well-established social or fraternal
organizations, by far the greatest
humber are erected through the united
effort of interested people and various
organizations Of the community. When
the latter plan Is employed the neces-
sary money Is obtained either by vol
untary contributions or by the sale
Of stock. Subscriptions are paid in
the form of money, labor or mate
rails.
Financing a building by general vol
untary contributions Is suggested as
perhaps the simplest, quickest and
most elastic way, while incorporated
stock associations furnish more of the
elements Of financial permanency.
The community method of financing
has a number of advantages: (1)
People are devoted to that to which
they voluntarily subscribe; (2) this
method develops community cO-opera-
ton, promotes union, and decreases
~antagonisms through the necessity Of
different organizations and factions
working together In a financial cam
paign; (3) as the money is voluntarily
given from private funds, the people
are enabled to make experiments III
the building which they would hest
tate to make with public funds or
those of an individual or club; (4)
those who pay, control. Only a high
type of citizenship subscribes to an
institution of this kind and thus pub
lie spirit at its best is in control.
Community Buildings.
In recent years there has been a
growing movement In the erection Of
community buildings by the munich
pality through taxation. This method
also has it's distinct advantages.
Maintenance expenses of community
buildings are met by dues, fees.
rentals and receipts from entertain
ments, profits and concessions. Some
of the best organizations maintain
their buildings entirely by annual dues.
In the case Of buildings financed by
an individual or by an industrial con-
Germ, a community association is gen.
orally formed which guarantees the
maintenance Of the building as a con-
dition Of the donation.
Most community associations which
finance their buildings by issuing
stock, incorporate under the state
laws In order that they may have a
more effective instrument for buying,
selling and holding property. To
guide such associations. copies Of ar
ticles Of incorporation, constitutions
and bylaws now In use by a num-
Der Of well-established organizations
are included in the bulletin. State
laws relating to municipalities and
counties erecting buildings are also

SUPPLY BASE FOR BIRDS

The air forces can be concen-
trated against the enemies of

up a base of supplies for winter
birds. This is the suggestion Of
A.. c. Burrill of the Missouri
College of Agriculture, who fur
Their states that suet trimmings,
warmed and mixed with bread

to attract birds and help them

mating insects.

SUPPORTERS AND
! FOES Of NAVAL
BILL LINED UP
First Show Down on the
Measure Will Come,PrOb-
ably Saturday: Both Fac
lions Claim Victory.

Washington, April 13.-House
factions unfolding and opposing
the 1923 naval bill, with its provi-
sion for an enlisted force Of $4,000,
were lined up tonight, for the first
show down, probably on Saturday
with both sides claiming victory.
4 There was no session today be-
cause of the death of Representa-
tive Benson of North Carolina and
meanwhile the roundup of mem
bers for and against the bill con-
tinued.
Satisfied the house would stand
4 by it as framed, Chairman Kelley
who is handling the bill on its tenn
pestuous voyage, announced he
would not agree to the proposal
put forward in some quarters to
delay until after the Easter Holt
days the vote on an amendment
Increasing the strength to $4,000.
With easy sailing in the early
stages, the enlisted personnel Sec
ton ought to be reached late to-
morrow with enough debate under
the five minute rule to prevent the
first roll call before adjournment
for the night.
I, Twenty OF the thirty-six
members of the Pennsylvania dele
cation voted at a conference to
stand for the 10000 amendment.
Two of these reserved the right to
change, if convinced later that the
committee figure would maintain
the 5-5-3 ratio, Under house pro-
cedure the amendment will be
adopted or rejected by the commit
tee of the whole, without roll call.
Should the big navy men win, the
amendment would go to the house
and would probably fall by a record
vote.
