AS the eclipse will pass the tip Of
Long island about ten minutes after
it reaches Buffalo, however, the plane
will be swiftly oyertaken and left far

eastward. The plane will follow to
Long island to give other advantages

Tentative plans for using the dirigi-

Protect Chicken Flock
During Severe Weather

There is always the likelihood of q
spell of cold, damp weather and it is
just at this time that colds, roup and
allied diseases are likely to get started,
with the result that we have them to
battle with all winter. Get everything
in full readiness for inclement weather
and whenever q bad day comes the
flock should be given ample protec-
ton. The houses should be thoroughly
cleaned and If repairs are necessary
this should be attended to. There
should be plenty of clean, dry litter.
Many successful poultrymen follow
the practice of supplying little more
feed than usual when the weather is
unfavorable and some of them change
the ration slightly, supplying little
more of the heat and fat-producing
elements. This is done on the theory
that the fowls are warmer and more
comfortable when so fed and there is
no doubt but that this is the case. In
any event special attention when the
weather Is bad is the best way to
avoid the beginning of disease and dis
orders.

Early Matched Fowl Is
Sure to Be Profitable

The early Matched pullet can be
made the most, or the least, profitable
pullet on your farm.
Cared for in the usual way, she will
begin laying during August; lay until
fall. and quit, to go through mott,
when eggs are highest In. price and
when they are needed most.
A hen moIts because she quits lay
ing, therefore our problem Is to keep
her laying, fighting anything that tends
to retard production.
Many pullets, being fed on mar
row ration, begin laying before they
are fully developed. After short pc
Rod they quit, because they haven't
the physical strength to stand up I'M
der prolonged production.
Having your pullets fully developed
is not alone sufficient. There comes
the season when the long winter nights
cut into the fowls feeding, thereby
reducing production. Here is where
the value of lights comes in.
January and February pullets, right
~ developed and properly handled.
should start laying in August, and I'M
der lights, continue through high
priced fall season until about Feb
ruary, when they will spend short
period going through the mott.

Although he never hurrles and gives
rather the impression of strolling,
President Coolidge manages to cover
a lot of ground in given time. Mrs.
Coolidge, too, is good walker, but
she prefers more leisurely gait and,
unless she has shopping In view. which
she usually does on foot, her promen-
AIDES are likely to be in Potomac park
or In the woods in the course of a
motor ride in the country.
Secretary Hughes always has been a
famous walker and, now that his
duties leave him so little time for
recreation, he has solved the problem
of getting enough exercise by walking
to the State department in the morn
ing, home for luncheon at noon, back
to the office afterward and home
again in the evening" good six miles

Justice Taft in his hiking clothes is
startling In the extreme. Always a
fast walker. he arrives at the Capitol

habiliments suited to the presiding
justice of the highest tribunal of the
United States.

SKIM MILK FAVORED
FOR LAYING FOWLS

Hens must have some form of AMI
NAL protein in their feed. This Is usu-
ally supplied by beef scrap. Two years
ago an experiment was started at the
experimental farm, Nappan, N. s., to
determine the relative values of beef
scrap and skim milk when added to
the laying ration. Two pens were
made up Of ten birds, as uniform In
breeding. age and type as it was pos
sibie to select. The ratfons fed to
each pen were alike and constant cx-
cept that Pen / received beef scrap
and Pen 2 skim milk.
The results show the possibilities
there are of realizing good value by
feeding skim milk The average pro-
duction from the ten birds receiving
beef scrap for the two six-month feed
ings periods (November / to April 80,
each year) was 615.e eggs, at feed
cost Of $13.75, or 26.S cents per dozen,
leaving profit over feed cost of 97.2
cents per bird.
In Pen 2 the ten birds receiving
skim milk over the same period had
an average production of 699.5 eggs.
at feed cost of $12.70, or 21.S cents
per dozen, leaving profit over feed
cost of $1.49 per bird. BY taking the
average of two years 1t was found that
508.7 pounds skim milk, valued at 20
cents per hundred and thus costing
S1.20, gave greater returns than 80
pounds beef scrap at market price
of $7.24 per hundred, thus costing
S2.62.
If, as believed at the experimental
farm, the increase in production from
the pens receiving milk can be at
tributed to the value of skim milk as
food for laying hens, it would only
be fair to state that the farmer had
received slightly better than one dol
lar per hundredweight for his skim
milk when he marketed it through his
eggs.
AS this feeding test has been carried
on for two years only, 1t does not per-
NIT the drawing of definite conclu-
sions yet However, the results to
date would lead one to believe that
part of the skim milk available on
the farm can be very profitably mar
keted through the egg and would seem
to be a more profitable proposition
than paying 81 per hundred for beef
scrap in order to supply the amount
of protein so essential for profitable
egg production.

A UNITED STATES army air
N plane will race the shadow Of
the moon nearly 400 miles
across New York state during
the eclipse of the sun on January "a.
Carrying specially designed camera,
photographs will be taken from the
plane of the suns flaming corona, as
made visible during the eclipse.
The purpose of the experiment, as
worked out by DR.. David Todd, pro-
fessor emeritus of astronomy Of Am
herst college, and for which use Of
the plane has been granted by Major
General Patrick, chief of the air serv-
ice, Is to permit photographing for a
longer period than the approximately
two minutes, for which the eclipse
will be visible from the earth. Even
the added fraction Of minute that
the photographing will be permitted
by the speed of the plane will be Of
great value to science.
The plane, piloted by Lieut.. George
w. Goddard, and with DR.. f. B. Bur
ka, government physicist, operating
the camera, will leave Buffalo shortly
