Average Poultry Ration
in Both Grain and Mash

The usual amount Of grain given
to 100 Leghorn pullets at this time
of the year is about II pounds per
day. About the same amount OF
mash will be consumed by them.
For heavier breeds from one TO two
more pounds of grain Is fed per
hundred birds per day, and they
will consume about as much mash
as grain. These amounts of feed
also hold good for 100 hens.
As to the amount of feed for 30
chicks: in a period Of six weeks 80
chicks will consume a total OF ap-
proximately 100 pounds OF feed,
including both grain and mash. A

the first six weeks would be some

Kill Chicken Lice

Hens that are infested with body
lice or feather mites cannot pro-
duce efficiently. One OF the easy
ways OF Kidding an infestation of
these pests Is to paint the roosts
of the poultry house with nicotine
sulphate (black leaf 4O) just be-
fore the birds go TO roost at night.
The heat of the hens will release
the nicotine fumes and vermin on
the birds will be killed. Body lice
can be killed with one treatment,
but the feather mites and red mites
that harbor around the roosts may
take two or three treatments. Ex-
anime few Of your birds. If they
are lousy, kill the lice right now
with this simple treatment.-Prairie

Cato Ninetails. IF course, there
are people who are undoubtedly i'm
pOrtant, but 1t is not so much the
result of their special efforts to be
important as of a combination of
circumstances and their individual
talents. That is to say, they are not
important merely because they want
to be important, but because of the
natural order Of things. There are
other people who are not important,
but who seem to be important. I
don't know whether this Is merely
the result of chance or is brought
about by good management. Which
ever it is, it seems to require no
great effort by them, and they un-

Sometimes l suspect that they even

Great English Traveller

Sir Richard Burton was the first
Englishman to enter Mecca, the first
to explore Somaliland, and the first
TO find the Great Lakes of Central
Africa. He was so skilled in the
lore of the desert that he could
travel almost anywhere among the
natives without detection. OF the
many books written by this famous
traveller, the most celebrated is his
translation of the Arabian Nights" :"
After his death an unpublished man
uscript translation of the Scented
Garden" from the Arabic, was
burned by his widow on account OF
its pornographic content. The de-
struction of this paper has been
counted a great loss to literature.
The devoted wife of Burton ar
ranged a unique tomb for him in
the form of an Arab tent Of stone
and marble.

Feather Picking

The taste of blood upon freshly
plucked quills is probably what
keeps fowls picking at each other
after something has started them.
Letting them get away from each
other by turning the flock out of
doors is the most certain method
of stopping the practice. Tar may
be daubed upon any bleeding point
about the comb or head to discour-
age the attackers. Bleeding fol-
lows any injury that breaks the
skin, it may be from accident or
attacks.-Rural New Yorker.

POULTRY
"FAGT1S~
EGG NOT
SOUGHT BY BUYERS
High Quality Production Is
Demanded.

(By II. H ALP. Poultry Extension spe-
cIalist. College OF Agriculture, Uni
versity Of Illinois.-WNU Service)
Fertile eggs caused by keeping
roosters In the flocks during the
warm summer months have been
mainly responsible for bad egg
losses which in 1880 cost poultry
men of the state an estimated $5,-
100000. In addition to eliminating
roosters, If farm flock owners would
adopt a few practical and simple
practices. much of the poor quality
of Illinois eggs could be overcome
and market demands for eggs from
this state improved.
Eggs should be gathered twice
daily or, better still, three times
daily in hot weather. Frequent
gathering helps prevent damage by
heat or cold; it saves cracking and
breaking Of eggs and it reduces the
proportion of dirty eggs.
Before being cased, eggs should
be cooled, because egg cases, pads
and filters hold in any heat that al
ready Is in the eggs. The cases Of
eggs should be held in a cool place,
a temperature of 80 TO 60 degrees
being best. On most farms the Gel
lar is the best place available. 1t
Is satisfactory for short storage pc
RODS If It is free from strong odors
and not too damp.
Eggs will keep better and will be
easier to sell If they are kept clean.
Changing the floor litter and nest
ing material before 1t Is too badly
soiled helps to keep eggs clean.
Dropping boards or, better still,
wlre-covered dropping boards also
help. Crowded quarters are a COM
mon cause of dirty eggs. There
should be 3la to 4 square feet OF
floor space for each hen. A short
age of nests also causes broken and
dirty eggs and may lead to the hab-
its Of egg eating and of laying eggs
on the floor. There should be one
nest for each five hens.

AT the age Of eighty-six a scientist

Lezhorn Feed Requirements

One Leghorn hen eats approxi-
mately 10 pounds of grain and
mash in a year, about 10 pounds
of grain and 35 pounds of mash.
The heavier birds such as Rhode
Island Reds and Barred Plymouth
Rocks will eat about 10 pounds
more than this. 1t is impossible
to give the exact number, as the
food requirements for different
flocks seem to vary. Even with the
same stock the feed requirement
will vary according to climatic con

The Scale OF Raises for Suit
Bids in One

The Scale OF Raises for Suit
Bids in One
THE rule that when in support
L ing partners suit bid your hand
contains two short suits you should
count only one of them, the short
er, and ignore the second, prevents
overvaluation.
A short suit takes on increasing
value If it has been previously bid
by your partner. A short suit also
has slightly more value with three
trumps If one Of these is an ace or
a king.
But it must be particularly noted
that rufing tricks are not increased
in value by the presence Of more
than four trumps in the dummy
hand.
In raising your partners bid suit,
count the sum total of your playing
tricks in trumps, and in long and
short side suits with their honor
velues. Then subtract three tricks
expected by partner) and give one
raise for each trick left over. That
is, with four assisting tricks, raise
once; with five assisting tricks, raise
twice, etc. In raising your partners
bid, always show at once the full
value of your support, stopped only
at a game contract unless you have
reason to look for a slam.
An additional y trick (312 totaD
is sufficient for this first raise. Also
when the next player passes after
your partners opening suit bid of
one, IL is imperative that you keep
the bidding open. SO, with no good
alternative, you may raise the bid
on only the 8 expected assisting
tricks. But in this situation you
will usually have some take-out
which offers a better alternative.
The Coolidge examiner., 1932-07-29
Taking Out Partners Suit
Bid of One

When unable TO support your
partners major suit, or wishing to
take him out Of minor, look for a
biddable suit. Holding any biddable
suit, with a total Of " honor-tricks
In your hand, regulation take-out
of one over one is practically COM
pulsory. When your take-out re
quires a bid OF two, your suit should
rarely be q four-carder. If the next
player passes after your partners
original suit bid Of one, If holding
IL honor-tricks, remember that you
must keep the bid open, whenever
possible, II not with a raise or
suit take-Out, then with a take-out
Of one no trump.
A suit take-out Of one over one
may run as high as 21a honor-tricks
so the original bidder, In his turn.
must always be on the alert to keep
such a take-out open unless every
bit of his strength has already been
declared.
Only when you hold three honor
tricks may your take-outs be
Jumped :" otherwise you should
declare a bid just sufficient to cover
your partners opening.
When you hold the 3 or more hon
or-tricks, which. in conjunction with
the 2I2 shown by your partners
original bid, tell you that your part
nership Is in the game zone. you
must be sure that the bidding will
not be dropped until the promised
game Is reached. In taking-out
with a no trump bid. you would
have 10 contract for the game inn
mediately as there Is no forcing
take-out in no trumps. But with a
suit bid. you may be assured that
you will have another chance to de
clare yourself II you take out with
a Jump OF one more than necessary.
1t must be clearly understood that
while the forcing take-out always
indicates sufficient Complementary
honor strength automatically to put
your partnership in the game zone,
it does not necessarily show a
dominating suit.
The message of forcing take-out
reads something like this:
Partner. this looks ike a game
hand. 1t may possibly be a slam.
You must keep the bidding open in
cne Of the following ways: 1st)
Giving me a raise If you have sup
port for my suit, (2nd) Rebidding
your own suit If it is worth tricks,
(3rd) Naming a second suit if you
have one, (4th) Covering my bid
with just the required number of
no trurpps if you have nothing adj
ditional to show or (5th) Jumping
the no trump take-out if you have
more strength. Don't work. about
the outcome. | have another bid
in reserve. Or If we cannot get
together on a suit, our honor tricks
are sufficient to see us through
