PROPER FEEDING
NETS MORE EGGS
Methods and Food Quality
Are Important Items.
By v. E. SCOTT

ny v. T.. SCOIl
University of Nevada Extension Service.)
Successful farmer-poultrymen pay
nearly as much attention to the way
they feed their pullets and laying
hens as they do to the kinds OF
feeds they provide.
For one thing, abrupt changes in
the diet may cause the birds to go
"off feed" and result in lower egg
production and slower growth, as
will the use of stale feed.
If change in diet must be made,
it is suggested that it be gradual
and extended over a period of at
least week or ten days.
Important too, is sufficient hopper
space, lest the more tinid birds in
the flock go hungry. At least 10
linear feet of hopper, with hens eat
ing from both sides, should be pro-
vided per 100 laying hens, and suf-
ficient length of watering trough or
number of containers to prevent
crowding.
When there are enough separate
pens a good idea is to separate the
timid hens from their more agrees
sive companions, making small
pen of this group. They will soon
forget their timidity.
One practice followed by many
poultrymen is to provide only lit
tie more feed each day than the
birds clean up.
The left-overs, if clean and dry,
can be mixed thoroughly with the
fresh feed in the hoppers, and in
this way, there will be no accumu-
lation of stale feed at the bottom
of the hoppers, reducing likelihood
of mold.
Feed mixtures containing fish oil,
as sources of vitanin A or D, should
be bought or mixed in small quanti-
ties so that they can be used within
10 days or two weeks.

Profitable Pastures

Pasture land promises to be one
of the most profitable sources of
farm income in the next year or two
in view of the steadily increasing
defense demands for meat and dairy
products. In order to obtain the
most profitable results from pasture,
a program of good soil management
including the application of fertilizer
is essential. Such program not
only will produce grasses richer in
needed vitamins and minerals, but
will promote more rapid growth

striped crochet weskit shown to the
right in this group. The "originaW
is worked in shades of brown, beige
and white with border trimming of
solid crochet. However, there are
other color schemes that will strike
an equally pleasing note such as,
for instance, holly red, pine green
and vivid yellow with highlights of
white or flashes of starry-night blue.
1t may be worn over blouses or as
a vestee with jacket suits.
Well, and look who's here below

them out in a jiffy if you are fast

sweaters you can find cunning neck
laces of crocheted flowers strung
together with chainstitch crochet.
Some feature bracelets to match,

Slim Dresses animated
With Graceful PeDlums

Orchids to our American design
ers who have succeeded in animal
ing. slim silhouettes with ruffles,
tiers, peplums and flares in so subtle
way that the slenderness of a lady
of fashion is gracefully maintained.
By the way, the slim silhouette is
making steadfast progress. The
newer styles are proclaiming slen-
der lines as the coming thing in
styling. Latest proofs are the new
evening skirts so narrow they must
be slit to the knee. Very smart, too,
are narrow daytime skirts that are
scalloped around and dip at the
back. That narrow contours are
on the way is sure thing. In fact,
they have arrived.

Christmas gift problems in these
erstwhile 'homely arts'' which, this
season, have come triunphantly
into their own.
The play of imagination brought
to bear in interpreting the knit-and-
crochet theme in modern costume
design is winning the admiration of
the fashion world. One of the hap
piest outcomes of the present craze
for things knitted is intriguing hat
and bag sets like the stunning two
some shown to the left in the illus
tration. 1t is almost unbelievable
that so much chic and charm can be
achieved at so little expenditure of
time and cost of material. This set
is easily made and the heavy cot
ton boilfast rug yarn of which it is
made is amazingly inexpensive. You
can get this yarn in deep shades or
in delectable pastels. Be assured
that the fortunate recipient of this
cunning calot and bag will thrill
with joy at sight of it, the more so
because it is Handmade.
A gay little hatterer is the head
scarf pictured in the oval above.
You'll admit it is in perfect tune
with the Christmas spirit. This
pretty crocheted fantasy was de-
signed and made by the radio
songstress, Fran Allison. Not only
is it entitled to high fashion rat
ing but added to it's prettiness and
it's chic is it's kindly service in pro-
tecting smartly coiffed heads from
pranksome breezes. The happiness
it will bring to a friend when Santa
delivers it Christmas morning will
more than repay you for the labor
of love" in making it.

Christmas givers who want to
be sure their gift is we'll received
have been turning more and more
to cigarettes and smoking tobacco
as gifts most appreciated by any
smoker. Their welcome is always
far greater than the modest cost
involved. Naturally, Camels, as
Americas favorite cigarette, and
Prince Albert, the worlds largest
selling pipe tobacco, head the
smokers gift list. Camels have
two gift packages-the carton of
