TO MAKE HENS LAY
IN SUMMER SEASON
Wet Mash Suggested by a
New York College Man.

If the poultry flock lays few eggs
in late summer, feed a wet mash,
advises l.. III. Hurd of the New
York State College of Agriculture.
When skimmilk is available, use it
to wet the regular mash, or use
semisolid buttermilk at the rate of
two pounds to the hundred. The
crumbly wet mash may be fed late
in the afternoon, just before the
night grain feeding. The hens
should have only what they can eat
in twenty winuteS.
Another plan is useful when no
milk as available. Fill pail one
half full of dry oats and then fill
to the top with water. Let the oats
stand from one afternoon to the
next and add enough of the regular
dry mash to absorb the remaining
moisture. Feed the same amount
and at the same time as the milk
mash.
Wet mash feeding usually begins
in late July or August. Mr.. Hurd
suggests: No change in quarters or
in feed formula; provide an abun-
dance of tender green food; have
fresh water at all times; furnish
shade; and do not allow red mites
to attack the flock. He also sug-
gests adding two pounds of tobacco
dust to each one hundred pounds Of
mash to aid in controlling worms
and coccidiOsis, which are thought
to contribute to paralysis. The to-
baccO dust should be guaranteed to
contain l per cent nicotine sulphate.

Scrap Food for Chickens

Beet tops. turnips, carrot and on
ion tops. rinds of various kinds, po-
tatO parings can all go to the birds,
and be returned in eggs or in chick
growth. MOldy stuffs Of any kind,
however. should not be given to
them. 1t causes serious bowel trOu-
BILE with birds as with humans. Ba-
mana and orange peels are also
taboo as they have no food value
for poultry and forever clutter up
The pen. inviting molds to develop.
Feed the table scrap at noon or
night.

Connecticut for Turkeys

Turkey raising in Connecticut is
increasing, the total on farms In
1892 being more than double 1929,
and with a farm value of about
S200,0OO. A better understanding Of
turkey sanitation has made in
creases In number possible, and a
sound marketing program brought
added profit. The state, through
its agricultural department. has es-
tablished grading. labelling and ad-
vertising of Connecticut turkeys,
giving them market standing not be-
fore pOssessed.-Rural New-YOrker

THE MIRROR OF MY SOUL

From the bottom of my soul where
God doth dwell
sought these words I hope will tell
The spirit of one who can trust friend
Only as l. myself, hath been.
My He'll is as law as l center my mind
Not knowing that in this channel the
evil things find.
! burn in my He'll because fail to free
you
By cleansing my own soul of the things
that are true.
My Heaven is as high as l build my
life,
Much of which must be surrounded by
piercing strife,
And pray that as journey from day
to day
Some one will rejoice that passed his
way.
And yet, my dearest friend will be
smeared with stain,
Unlk;ss from within me the filth l
disdain.
God make me know that l see not with
physical eyes,
For everything this eye sees, soon
withers and dies.
My friends are therefore judged by the
secrets l unfold,
AS glance through the mirror Of my
soul.
