Lack of Proper Feed

If you own flock Of Rhode Island
Reds or Barred Rocks that don't seem
to be producing as many eggs as your
neighbours Wyandottes or Leghorns,
don't make the mistake of wanting to
raise the same breed as your neigh
Dor. You probably are at fault in the
care, feed and method of feeding. II
given proper management your flock
would probably be able to produce as
well as your neighbours. The average
farm flock does not receive the feed
needed for egg production.

HORSE SHORTAGE
NOW IMPENDING

The increasing shortage of horses
on the farms Of the United States
makes the growing of colts especially
attractiveN to some farmers. Some
foresighted men are already growing
more colts and are receiving good
prices for them.
According to Prof. r. S. Curtis OF
the animal husbandry department at
the North Carolina college, there has
been a decrease in the number of
horses on the farms Of the United
States of 1853 per cent in the last five
years. On January first of last year.
there were 16,538,759 compared to 49,
767,161 horses five years before.
There is a decrease Of IL per cent In
young horses foaled In 1923 and 1924.
Mules show an increase of 5.5 per
cent during the last five years, but
young mules foaled during 1923 and
1924 show decrease Of 44.5.
"Those who have good mares pro-
ducing good horses and mules have
increased the production of colts"
says Professor Curtis. "Those who
have been producing inferior animals
have received such poor prices for the
colts that they have been discouraged
and have about quit the business.
This is exactly as it should be and
encourages the production Of good
horses. Competition with mechanical
power requires not only the use of
horses in more efficient ways, such as
larger teams, but also the production
of better horses and mules, capable OF
doing more work In given time"
Professor Curtis states that those
who have farms well equipped for the
production of live stock, with plenty
of pasture and hay crops, should inves-
tigate the possibilities of producing
colts for market.

Time to Caponize

The time of the year to caponize Is
of little Importance as the capon re-
covers from the operation regardless
of the season. However, there are
certain other considerations that are
of Importance. First in Importance is
the age and size of the cockerel. The
best time to caponize is when cock
erels weigh from Ia to PA pounds at
from to months old. The lower
age limit applies to large breeds and
the higher limit to the Asiatic vari.

For Fattening Steers

Both alfalfa hay and oil meal are
valuable sources of protein for fatten-
ing steers. Alfalfa hay is not nearly
so rich In protein as oil meal but 1t
contains vitamine which Is not found
in either oil meal or corn. With al
falfa at SIS ton and oil meal at $50

feed two or three pounds of alfalfa

feet in width. Subsequently the vein
was observed to run for a distance
of more than % miles.
Red Lake is about 80 miles from
the nearest railroad, but as distance
is nothing when gold is at stake, this

a thriving, busting population of gold

LESS PART TIME

1t is gratifying to learn that the
period OF part-time schooling in the
city Is gradually being lessened. The
announcement OF Superintendent
Holraes that 500 pupils of the
seventh grade OF the Nathan Hale
high school, who have been on part
time since September, would go on
full time after the Christmas holi-
days, indicates clearly that educa-
tional congestion is being gradually
solved. After February only the
Monroe school section will be on
part time.
The part time scheme helped the
school department to hurdle over a
critical situation, but it has been a
serious drawback to the school
population. The day when all school
pupils will be on full time cannot
come about quickly enough. The city
has expended large sums for new
school buildings and will be graft
fled when everything pertaining to
the school plants are in good work
ing order.

SKATING POSSIBILITIES
IN NEW BRITAIN

One of the best Of winter sports
is skating. There once was much
opportunity for the indulgence Of
this sport in and near New Britain,
but of late years this has de-
creased rather than increased. There
are ponds in and near New Britain
which would yield good skating sur
faces but which nowadays are
mostly used TO provide ice for COM
mercial concerns; indeed, they are
virtually owned by these companies.
The appeal of residents living near
the Rhodes pond at the foot of
Arch street that the city take over
and supervise the pond for skating
during the winter is eminently just,
and should receive a favorable re-
ception at city hall.
Skating ponds should be accessible
in all sections of the city. There are
plenty Of them, and none should be
denied to citizens. Nature put the
ponds there, one might say for the
use of all, and not for the exclusive
use of individuals.
