amount to be increased as the birds become accustomed to scratching and hunting for grain. Wheat should i be thrown in the litter at frequent intervals during the day to encourage exercise. The bulk of the grain feeding should be given at night and may be fed in open troughs if desir- ed
 When trouble occurs. it IS worth while to spend considerable time in the pens watching the birds to de- termine how. when and where the difficulty starts. Frequently the ad- dition of more nests, changing the nests to a darker location in the house or hanging something in front of the nests to darken them, will be effective. Occasionally removing the lighting board in front of the nest will prevent mischief makers from hanging around and help to control the trouble. Gardening the entire house is sometimes effective but sell dom practical because of hot weather and the lack of ventilation. In small fioeks it is sometimes possible to identify and remove the few individ- uals that start trouble thus control ling an epidemic.
 As treatment. there is probably no one change as effective as plac- ing powdered milk in hoppers leav- ing 1t before the birds all the time. After two or three days the amount consumed will drop down to 2 or 8 pounds per 100 birds per day. The dried milk seems to satisfy the ap- petite of the cannibals and in many cases proves a satisfactory control. After 2 or 3 weeks the milk can be taken away and returned again if the trouble re-occurs.
 As last resort. beak-tipping is probably the most positive control measure than can be applied. 1t is usually necessary 10 tip the peaks on the entire flock rather than at tempting to treat only a few of the worst offenders. Beak-tipping sounds like a difficult task but it can be done very easily and very rapidly. It can be best done while the birds are on the perehes at night. After tipping, the birds should be placed behind wire stretched across the corner of NftN tfNNt hth NHED Aftt I0U IS Un- ished. the lights can be turned on. the wire moved and the birds will re- turn to roost
 For beak-tipping use a small iack-knife, cutting into the aide of the upper heak quarter inch back from the tip. hold this top section of the beak up against the knife blade with the thumb and pull rather than cut across the point of the beak. This will remove the horny part of the beak. leaving about one eighth Of an inch of the soft part or quick exposed. Birds in heavy production may be SO treated if given ample op- portunity to eat grain and mash from troughs and if the green food is cut up for few days. During the two or three weeks required for the Deaks to grow out, the birds may be induced through better management to forget their bad habits"

"Prolapsus and Cannibalism in
 PulIefs"

"Prolapsus and Cannibalism m
 Pullets"
 What is more discouraging than to grow and house a nice lot of pull lets. only to have them suffer from Prolapsus and develop Cannibalism when they approach profitable pro- dustion? Losses due to cannibalism this season are reported as being heavier than usual. This may be due in part to an increased number of early matched bullets which neees- sarilv mean more intensive breeding also early bullet maturity, because of matching out of season. This con dition may also be due in part to the unusually dry summer which has meant less green feed and less fa- vorable growing conditions.
 There are number Of proven tative measures that should be talk en into consideration when bullets are housed for winter First, do not house bullets until they are ready to lay. This means selecting the birds according to maturity and leaving the slow maturing birds on range until they have reached ma turity and are ready for production Avoid crowding in the laying hous- es. This applies both to floor space, which should be at least 5 square feet per bird for the light breed, q square feet for bird with every breed, also hopper space, which should be at least 2 inches of hop per feeding space per bird. With the changeable weather and frequent hot days which occur during the early fall. laying houses must be ex- tremely we'll ventilated. particularly during the heat of the day as Can nabalism is aggravated by over-heat- ing.
 "Suceulent green food is an inn portant feeding requirement. The birds must be kept in a laxative con dition as constipation is apt to cause Prolapsus and Prolapsus Is al- most sure tn be followed by Can nibalism. Green food also adds bulk to the rations and helps to satisfy q normal bullet craving for bulk, fol- lowing their consumption Of large variety of feed on range. The mash formula should be bulky rather than fine and should. with the present price range on different feeds, con tain a large amount of wheat feed. Half of the corn. normally used as A scratch feed. may be replaced by wheat. both from standpoint of Cannibalism control due to the heat ing effect of corn and from the standpoint of economy due to exist ing prices. Pullets should be given thin layer of litter on the floor when they are first housed. This
