GAINS PRESTIGE
Twenty-Five Leaders Attend Bruno and
Hinckley Meetings; Group
Attendance Good.

Poultry interest has been growing
by leaps and bounds in many of the
homes in Pine county recently and
project leaders at the meetings held
in Bruno and Hinckley, April and g.,
turned carpenters long enough under
the direction of Miss Cora Cooke, ex-
tension specialist in poultry from the
University Farm, to make a 5-foot
trough feeder which will provide feed
ing space for so hens. The subject
discussed at the meetings was, Feed
ing for Egg Production"
The lumber for the feeder was
brought on April by Mrs. Dan Svar-
dial and on April by Mrs. Ben Sydow
The cost of the lumber was SLIGO, an
extremely low price for feeder of
that size. The leaders were urged to
recommend the use of two of these
feeders for flock of 100 hens. All
of the leaders expressed great enthusi-
asm for this piece of equipment and
were greatly surprised at their ability
to make it themselves.
The meeting was attended by "a
leaders who reported an attendance
in their local groups of Sc per cent
of all members enrolled. They also
reported that sanitation demonstra-
lions had been signed up in every
group. More demonstrators will be
secured at the next series of local
meetings.
Miss Cooke placed special emphasis
upon the Importance of feeding in
producing eggs economically. Present
prices make it all the more necessary
to produce eggs as cheaply as possible.
1t was brought out that a balanced
ration is not necessarily more ex-
pensive ration; that, in fact, good
balance sometimes means cheaper
ration because chickens require a
smaller amount. Under any condition,
the balanced ration may be expected
to produce eggs at lower cost be-
cause of the larger number laid.
How to Feed Laying Hens.
Cod liver oil as a necessary part of
the winter ration was discussed. 1t
was shown how cod liver oil is fac
tor in producing eggs with good sound

briefly on the intelligent tolerance
which had always been a characters
tic of "Dannevirke."
Finally Mr. Hoist feelingly eX-
pressed his gratitude to all friends,
present and absent. He emphasized
as his view of life the staunch be-
lief that enlightened humanism and
Christianity work well together, and
said that he had tried to conduct his
paper on that basis.
Congregation members and outside
guests spent a while at the coffee
tables, and at about 1920 O'Clock the
impressive and beautiful festivities of
the day were ended.
The Bethlehem congregation had
sponsored the celebration because Mr..
Hoist has been its member nearly as
long as he has been affiliated with
"Dannevirke."
Monday, April 10, was the actual
birthday of Mr.. Hoist, and in the eve
ming of that day members of his fam
lily gathered about him in informal
fashion.

shells, in preventing laying paralysis
in hens, and in insuring better hatch
ability. 1t is not a medicine, but a
food which chickens need, when con-
fined to their house, as help as
Stimulating and utilizing the lime and
phosphorus which are part of every
good ration.
Attention was given to summer feed
ing for egg production. 1t was pointed
out that in most cases the common
practice of letting chickens forage for
their feed in the summer is mistake
Given about half of the usual allow
ance of well balanced ration, the
chickens will produce more eggs in
summer than in winter. Further
more, under present conditions, the
summer prices are likely to be as
good as late winter prices.
County Agent w. F. Hammargren
mentioned facts relative to poultry
raising that had come to his attention
in trips throughout the country. He
commented on the work of the leaders
and urged continued cooperation.
The leaders will attempt to secure
demonstrators who will feed their
flocks balanced laying rations for one
month, keep records, and then report
results to their local groups.

ish Church, and presented to Mr.. Hoist
in behalf of friends from all parts
