Encouraging Egg Production by
Proper. Feeding

J. H. s., Dougherty, Ca,
writes: I would appreciate all the
information you can give me on
the feeding and care of White
Leghorn chickens.
There are a number of points to
be taken into consideration on the
feeding of chickens. l am presum-
ing of course that you refer to the
handling of pullets or hens. In the
case of young chickens which are
but a few days old, the method Of
procedure would be entirely differ
ent 1t is important therefore for
you to have this differentiatum in
mind. Mature hens, to do well,
should be kept in clean, substan.
tial, we'll ventilated house. Santa
ton is an important matter in the
successful cement of a flock
It is best that the house be faced
toward the sun, and a hinged door
should be provided which can be
opened to let in sunshine and air
whenever this practice seems desi-
rable. Keep your henhouse well
bedded with six to ten inches of
clean straw. Spanish moss may be
used if straw is not available. I'm
healthy or sickly birds should be re-
moved from the flock.
A good scratch feed to use may be
prepared as follows: Mix ten pounds
of wheat, cracked corn, and oats to-
gether. Scatter the grain literally
over the floor of the house. This
will insure the hens taking plenty Of
vigorous exercise in hunting for the
food they need each day. A good
mash feed may be prepared as fol
lows: Ten pounds of wheat bran, ten
pounds of corn meal, ten pounds of
ground oats, ten pounds Of chopped
wheat, and ten pounds of meat scrap.
We keep this in self-feeding hop.
pers before our birds at all times. 1t
is necessary that the ration be so
adjusted that the birds will consume
about as much scratch feed as they
do mash. Where birds consume too
much of either of these feeds, an
adjustment or balance can be main
tanned by cutting down the avai1a BILE
supply of the one they are consum.

the better husband and is the more
.ovable and more pleasant to live
with.
The wife of the tightwad lives a
life of perpetual modification and
humiliation, nagging and discord.
She never has a penny of her own
to spend as she pleases, but she
has to go like a beggar to her hus-
band for every cent, and then, en-
dure the insult of being questioned
about what she did with the quarter
that he gave her week before last.
This outrages a woman's sense
OF justice because she knows that the
work she does in the home is worth
far more pay than her board and
clothes, which is all she gets out of
matrimomy.
Nfggardliness about money will
Gill love quicker than anything else
in the world, and l have never known
a tightwad's wife who loved him,
nor a tightwad's widow who didn't
wear a look of ineffable relief and
peace under her mourning bonnet.
A stingy mans wife lives in per-
petual strife because you cannot run
a home on air. 1t takes money TO
buy food and clothes and pay rent
and gas and water and heat, no mat
ter how cleverly you manage. The
first of the month is a time of terror
for the penny pincher's wife, because
when the trembling wife presents the
ills he raves like a mailman and
treats her as if she had eaten every
bit of the food and absorbed all the
heat in the household.
You are a wise little flapper to
observe the manners and habits of
the men with whom you go, because
in that way you can make a very
shreWd guess at the kind of husbands
they will make.
The man whose hand is always in
his pocket and who invariably pays
for the crowd will make the too-gen
erous husband. He will indulge his
family in the things they cannot af-
ford ard will want to live beyond
his means. He is not a very good
choice, though he is preferable to
the stingy one who never pays at all.
Pick out the man who pays his fair
share, who never CRAFTS on any one,
and who spends freely, but not ex-
travagantly. He will be neither a
miser nor a waster, and he will make
the best husband
DEAR MISS DIN-I am enga ged
to a splendid young man, who has
very high ideals and who believes
the best of everybody. But my trou-
BILE is this: My mother is a wonder
full mother to her children, and al
ways has been, but she is not faith
full to my father. Sooner or later
my fiance is bound to find this out,
and the question is: Shall I tell him
before we are married? Telling him
may make a difference in our lives,
as he might think that | would be

Dear Folks: | am sorry not to be

F ARM EDUCATION
BY DR.. ANDREW M. sou. z

Merits OF Horse VS.. Tractor Power
w. L., Chicago, ILL.,, writes: L
would appreciate any sugges-
tions from you as to the value of
the horse VS.. tractors for farm
work.
1t would not be inappropriate to
say that we are industrially mad in
the United States. The slogan of
or automobile manufacturers a few
years ago was "A car for every fam
ily." We are we'll on our way, APP
parently, to the attainment of that
end.
The proposition now seems to be
to displace the horse with the tractor
with the deluded idea in view that
we will minimize arduous labor, in
crease acreage, and lessen the cost
of production, and so promote the
welfare of our farmers. This is a
beautiful theory, designed primarily
to benefit the manufacturer of trac-
tors, to increase our urban popula-
tons, and raise the cost Of living.
Theoretically, the manufacturer of
tractors is pursuing his way with
benign motives in mind. AS a matter
become extravagantly rich by sell
ing to our landowners something
which cannot displace the horse
satisfactorily, which is costly to
operate, difficult to keep in repair.
and is soon worn out and has to be
replaced at a considerable cost.
1t would be a bold man indeed
who would claim that we do not
need as many horses on our Ameri.
can farms as we ever had in spite
of the regime of the tractor. I am
not one of those foolish enough to
think that the tractor is not pos
sessed of any merit or capable or
rendering our agriculture beneficial
and constrU ctive service, but the
wholesale effort to displace the
horse with the tractor is to be de-.
plored. 1t is nothing short of an
economic calamity. because the
horse is now as essential and funda-
mental to the maintenance of sat
isfactory type of agricultural prac-
tice on Our American farms as he
ever was. Moreover, we can use
the horse for many purposes to
which the tractor is not adapted.
If we preserve sufficient horse
power on our farms, it will thus
help to maintain one of the most i'm
portant of our animal industries In
tact and on a profitable basis. We
can also keep the cost of crop pro-
duction at lower level through
horsepower than will apply with the
tractor. OF course I know there are
exceptions to this rule, but the ex-
tensive type of farming in which the
tractor has proven so beneficial is
not the kind which can or should
be practiced by SO per cent of our
American farmers.

eight pounds should be about the
right amount they should receive.
A very light feeding of this mixture
should be given early in the morn.
ing and again late in the afternoon.
1t is very important that you pro-
vide all the green food possible for
your flock. A grazing area near
your henhouse will be found almost
invaluable for this purpose. By
planting a succession of feed crops,
you can provide green feed for prac-..
ideally the whole year. Good green
feed for this special purpose may
be provided through the use Of n.
falfa, cabbage, kale, rape, GasS.
wheat, and rye. Milk is a valuable
adjunct in the ration Of hens, and
fresh water must be supplied in
abundance.
