Till: OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SATURDAY, JULY CI, 1C1I 13 POULTRY DEPMIfflT I : . -..,., THE PRACTICAL WAY By D. J. L. -Of course, foods that axe not tasty, . whether grains, greens, or animal . food, should not be. used as poultry feed, even though they contain ail the ' desired elements of , nutrition. .Fowls appreciate a change of diet as often . as possible. The same grains. In dif ferent forms may be a change to them and yet contain- the. same nutrients. One man thought lie was feeding on a balanced . ration, because he fed corn : meal doogh . In the morning, cracked : corn- at , noon and whole corn at night. A balanced ration for one flock may be too narrow or too wide "for another. ,By narrow . and wide, . we mean the1 proportion of protein, the flesh, and tissue forming nutri ents. compared with ' the carbo-hy- ' drates, the fat, heat and energy mak ing elements. A good . proportion for an average flock is one portion of protein to five of carbohydrates, usu ally designated 1 to 5, . By average , flock we mean one that Is composed largely of American breeds. The ' Mediterraneans ' are naturally more active and will do better on a wider ' formula, or about 1 to 6. This, of . course, depends, somewhat upon the condition of the. birds and the season of the year. , It's a mistaken notion that hens wlU lay eggs when spring comes whether the food is properly fed or not. True; when warm weather comes Eeason for Culling Flock at This Time One reason for reducing the number , of . old birds to a minimum at this - - season of the year Is jthat - in many ' flocks both old and young run together. - The young chicks when feathering are very sensitive and nervous, : In fact, '- fowls at any age which have lost their f coat of feathers and are growing an other, seem to be very sensitive and do not wish to associate with other - fowls, especially If there is an lncllna I. tion to pick at thejn. This results in the young1 chicks staying at a distance from the flock - at feeding time. 2Tb en, too, the mature , stock select the beat range. This re- : suits in the pullets being. improperly nourished and tbey do not - develop . properly to make good winter layers. 1 " One of the most critical stages in ' the life of any hen is when she is ; developing the egg organs. This period i is when the pullet is from 4 to 8 months of age, according to the breed, and is the time when she should re ceive the best of care, plenty of good, wholesome food, roomy, sanitary roost- "' ing quarters with plenty of fresh air and no vermin. - ; Oregon Hens Lead IrT All 'Classes - 6regon hens are quit evidently lay - ing for the highest prizes awarded 'in the egg-laying contest being conducted ; by the - American Poultry association at the San Francisco exposition. ; Re . ports from the fair ctty-; Indicate" that hens exhibited by the Oregon Agricul- . . .all I 31 .... . , lumi wie rs iwamg . in , cui ins , classes in which r the college has en . tries.

When a - hen lays she is getting nutrients from . somewhere in addition to air and water. If we analysed a ' fowl or chicken, we would find about 65 per cent of water, nearly 22 per cent 'of protein, 17 per cent of fat and about 4 per cent . of ash. In an egg we would get; nearly 66 per cent of water, a little more than 11 per cent -of protein, about . 8 per cent of fat and 12.per cent ash. If a chicken Is deprived of any of these ingredi ents In its food, it cannot develop in nice proportions. If it Is compelled to consume a surplus of one in order to get a sufficiency of another, it will not remain in good condition. To get eggs .we must first supply a sufficient quantity of nutrition, to sustain life, ' repair waste, and give a surplus to make the egg. If a hen is an egg machine she- must be built to make a good layer. If. the. egg Is the finished product of the raw ma terial we give , the hen. it must be sucb that she? can make eggs from it- No doubt she will do her best to .be productive, but she must live while producing eggs. Then the food must be filling to satisfy the appetite and not so concentrated as to .injure the digestion. A properly balanced ration is one that is healthful and nutritious. Chicks Raised in Hatching Season '. -. 5' ' 1 - , 1 " . .F; vi .'-V . '' - The number of chicks one can raise during a hatching season, winter and spring, depends upon the ' Individual capabl 1 lty and the hatching' facilities says Edward Baton, of Napa, Cal. It is not imposing an ; unreasonable amount of work upon one fairly pos sessed of practical knowledge of poul try raising to place the number of hens he . can set, and the hatched brood he . can . manage. - within the hatching season, at 200. ; " - -. . With an average . hatch of nine chicks, this will give a total of 1800. and - a death rate with . hen brooded chicks should. not be over 10 per cent. The hen with a brood should not be permitted to range at will, the little chicks chill easily from contact with the cold, strong winds and the numerical strength of the brood is rapidly lost. -. The hen should - be furnished a roomy box coop, and the chicks should be shut in before the night chill Is on the air. They should not be given their liberty in the morning until the range Is dry and the sun has warmed the air. - Egg Losses Due t To Poor Packing The way In which eggs are sacked inBlde the crate is . important, says a year, book separate of . the department of agriculture i Many experiments have shown that' the fillers or little cardboard cells in which the eggs ane put, must be new and strong and tHait the flats, or cardboard sheets placed at the bottom and top of each case and in between j the layers of eggs must be springy ' and ' urrferoken. There is of course a temptation to reuse these ' fillers and flats. In the case of the fillers, the little projections around the outside which keep the nearest line of eggs from coming Into contact with the ' box are important - and In second band fillers these are apt to be bent, with the result that the eggs are not kept in place but shift about with the movement of the filler. v Some of the fillers when used once are dampened : and weakened by "leakers", with the result: that each layer of little partitions. Instead of being rigid and - keeping the eggs in place, has weak points which permit individual eggs to mash against each other. Much breakage In transit is due, not to unusually rough handling by the ray roads, but to neglect of these simple facts. Indigestion. . Indigestion of; young - turkeys or chickens is often caused by wrong feeding, sometimes resulting in sour crop, or water in crop. In a case of this nature the bird gets a fermenta tion of the contents of the crop, the food cannot digest, it may be turned sour, or water may accumulate In the crop, feed does the bird., no good but continues a menace to its health until remedied, and If that ia not done the bird gradually dies from derangement of the crop and adjacent organs. of a high steel stack at the new Aetna explosive plant near Mount TTnion , w,rn . auiomooiusts of the dan- two .laying- masn snouia nave -more gerous curve a huge mirror has beeft i than- 20 per cent in total of high placed on the top of Logan's Ferry hill f protein as a rule, and the high ,pro by the New Kensington Automobile Jtelns principally are i flshmeal. beef club, says a Pittsburg report. scrap, linseed meal, blood meal,, gran- .

It is indispensable to the health of all animals fowls especially. - Cases arising from fermentation of food In the crop . of the t fowl or in the stomach of an animal, cause 95 per -cent of all bowel trouble. The introduction of charcoal into the stomach neutralizes, -, by absorp tion, all gases, sweetens - the gastric juices, aids digestion and adds vigor to the blood. - thus strengthening the whole system.

If a little attention is devoted at odd times during the summer to fixing a place for the young chicks they can . be cared for with little trouble.

Health of Young Chicks. , , One of the most common causes 'of chick mortality is white diarrhea. No certain cure for this, malady j is yet known.

Says Hs :- Thought - Zt Would Sa fiaaUst Way to Start , Himself Tp ta snslness. Idaho Falls, Idaho, July 15 4. (TJv P.) After narrowly escaping lynching at the hands of Infuriated cowboys, Lon Dean, a sheepherder, alleged abductor of Ernest Empey, a -well known ranch es, was held prisoner In a little hut on Sheep mountain since last - Satur day awaiting the payment of a ransom of "16000 which had been demanded, was placed In Jail here early today.

Bad Priaoner Chained. At the time of hla escape late yes terday afternoon Empey was chained po a tree while Dean was . taking a nap.. Ridding himself of his bonds, Empey made bis way down the moun tainside where he encountered several forest rangers who escorted him to Montpeller. - Empey Ja none the worse for his experience. 7 After discovering that Empey had eluded him. Dean abandoned the moun tain hut with the evident intention of making his escape.: He had not gone far,' however, until he was surrounded by a posse of cowboys and captured. Relieved of the terrible strain Under which, they have been ? for the last week, Empty's relatives ? ara almost hysterical with. Joy. The abductor bad threatened to kill Empey if bis father, E. S. Empey, failed to. pay the S6000 ransom by midnight tonight. Money ' Was Ready. Believing that his son's lif e . would pay the forfeit, Empey had arranged to acquiesce to the - desperado's de mands and the money was ready to be turned over to him tonight when news of the- young man's escape reached here. - Seldom has this region of Idaho been so wrought up. and little groups of men were standing about the streets talking over the episode In low tones. Although most of them were agreed that. Dean .: should ; i be severely dealt with, no direct-threats of lynch ing were heard after the band of cow boys who had determined on summary execution, was reasoned Into allowing the law to take its course. In jail .here today , Dean talked freely of the abduction of Empey. He said he arrived in -Idaho Falls July 8, purchased the. chain with which he bound Empey and established a camp on Sheep Mountain, where the plans for the abduction were made. 1 Dean denied that h Intended to kill Empey If he did not receive the ran som, but said he would probably have held him captive for some weeks. ' Always a Herder. Dean said he had been a sheep herder all . of his life.- having ; worked for Empey at one time, and desiring to go into business-for himself, knew-of no easier way of securing the necessary funds than by seizing the young ranch er for ransom. , Empey said - today that f Dean v, had treated him ; fairly well, feeding him on provisions stolen from sheep camps. Dean shared his bed with him, Empey said, but chained him securely at night by winding ; the iron links about his body and leg and locking them la the back. !,- - - - Borprlaa Wu Planned. a A surprise would have awaited Dean when he received the ransom money for Empes release, as it was learned today that Sheriff Adams,, of Jefferson county, Police Chief Larry.
