APPEAL MADE TO LAVAL

PARIS, July 13-Germany's lat est appeal for financial assistance was made today to Premier Laval by Von Goesch, German Ambassa- dor. The Premier is believed to have told Von Goesch that France is unable to help Germany, at present at least, because of finan- cial as well as political reasons.

Feeding Experiments
Directed at Missouri

The Missouri agricultural expert
ment station reports series of
: feeding experiments. In one case
the hens were given all the corn,
oats, bran, shorts and cornmeal
they would consume, but on these
rations they were able to produce
only 60 eggs in a years time. 1t
required 93 pounds of feed to pro-
duce a dozen eggs.
Now when identically the same
rations were fed, but in addition
three gallons of liquid skim milk
or IL pounds of commercial meat
scrap was added to the daily ra-
ton of 100 hens, the egg produc-
ton was more than doubled and
the feed required to produce a
dozen eggs was reduced nearly one
half.
By adding SS pounds of milk or
6 pounds of meat scrap to the year
ly ration for each hen from to 6
extra dozen eggs were produced.
While the extra cost of the ration
amounted to 80 cents per hen per
year, the extra eggs produced were
worth at least five times the extra
expense.

Civil War Memory

The sale of the Jack Paul grocery
store at Mexico, Mo-, reminded J. w.
Coakley, eighty-Lve-year-old Confed
crate veteran, that he had transacted
business with four generations of the
Paul family, three in Missouri and
one in Virginia. He recalled that in
1862 after the Yankees had captured
the salt mines near his home, and
the price Of salt had scared, he rode
horseback for six miles to the Paul
store at Harrisonburg, paying 81 for
four pounds of coarse barrel salt

Right Number of Males
REQUIRED in Hen Flock

There is no absolute rule in re-
gard to the number of males need
ed in a flock. but there are some
general recommendations that will
prove helpful in deciding this ques-
tion. For the Asiatic breeds one
rooster is needed for six or eight
hens. These birds are slower NOV
ing than the American breeds. The
American breeds, such as Plymouth
Rocks, Rhode Island Reds and Wy
andOttes, need one rooster for
every ten or twelve hens. With
Leghorns and other Mediterranean
breeds one rooster TO fifteen or
twenty hens is usually satisfac-
tory.
The activity of the males will
make some difference in regard TO
the number needed. In compara-
lively large flocks fewer males will
be needed than where the rooster
and hens are closely confined. 1t
is better to have a few more hens
at the beginning of the season than
is needed so that there will be suffi-
cient even though some of them
may become disabled or die. If
new males are added later in the
season they will usually start
fighting and do more harm than
good. A few extra roosters early
in the season is a more practical
method of meeting the situation.

POULTRY
'FNTS
PURE BRED HENS
ARE PROFITABLE
Cost a Little More but Pay
1t All Back in Eggs.

April is good time to make
every effort possible to produce pure
bred poultry instead of mOngrels.
If flocks of hens are kept on our
farms that possess the cOlOrS OF
Joseph's coat, combined with nu-
merous sizes and shapes, and pro-
ducing a product that would take
an expert to tell the shades and
texture of the shell, then poul-
try profits will be slim. With small
profits, our interest will lessen. and
1t takes interest to make us 90 after

ion of d. II. Hall, extension pOul-
try husbandman. Clemson college,
South Carolina.
Have you ever seen q farmer that
was interested in mongrel flock
of chickens? If you have, you have
seen more than | have" says Mr..
Hall. "As a rule, when the farm
flock are mongrels, the farmer
himself will always tell you that
they belong to the wife, but when
pure bred poultry comes on the
farm, then this same farmer doesn't
mind showing the visitors the pOul-
try, and most of the time will claim
every one of them.
Pure bred poultry will also at
tract attention to the farm. | do
not care how humble the home
may be or how poor the farmer is
himself. people will always stop to
look at flock of pure bred chick
ems. When other people are in
terested in the things you have,
there is usually sale for them
at a good profit.
what about the cost? Pure bred
chickens may cost a little more.
but they will pay back in eggs and
meat more than mongrels ever can.
The pure bred poultry producers
in each county should get behind
this movement and plan pure bred
poultry on each farm"

Vitamin E Needed

Vitamin e plays an important
part in the hatchability of eggs
This rather recently discovered fer
tility vitamin is essential to good
matches. 1t is not known exactly
what feeds available for poultry
contain this vitamin. However, it
is known to exist in well cured
green colored alfalfa. Alfalfa, fed
either in a rack or as part of the
mash. will provide both vitamins A
and E. 1t is probable that the
usual amounut of alfalfa. about 3

Treasure Trove on Farm

On the land of a widow farmer
of Aarhus Denmark) 5000 copper

Denmark, were found. 1t was in
the reign of this king that the first

trove, were by law the property of
the state, but the widow received

Mating Geese

The best results with the heavy
breeds of geese come from mating
in trios or using not more than
three geese with each gander. On
duck farms a mating of seven
ducks to one drake usually gives
good results. Ganders are usually
larger and coarser than geese with
larger heads and thicker necks and
they have a more shrill call. The
cry of the goose is rather harsh.
The only sure way to determine the
sex will be an examination of the
organs.

 The miner believed he was in for a long seize on his precarious perch. The moose circled the tree for long minutes and finally struck off for the timber.
 MT. Nixon did not climb down until it had disappeared from sight and he was on the alert for a long time after that. He is con- vinced that the moose would have trampled him to death had it cornered him.
