Upon th is r a t i o n a hen would get e n o u g h p r o t e i n to m a k e an egg a b o u t eve ry t h r e e o r f o u r days.

P r o f i t e e r i n g is not in h e r line a n d so on t h e abov e ra t i o n bit*1 w o ul d e i t h e r lay very few eggs, o r p e r h a p s n o n e at all, t h e s u r plus feed p r o b a b l y going i nt o fat on t h e body of th e hen . In an a r t i c l e of th is kind It would he i m p r a c t i c a b l e to go fully Into the scientific sid e of p o u l tr y f ee di ng , but a few g e n e r a l pr ac tic a l h i n t s will be given on how to b a la n c e a r a t i o n for t h e p r o d u c t i o n of eggs. T h e first t h i n g to be c o n s id e r ed is t h e “ n u t r i tive r a t i o , ” which is t h e r a t i o 6f p r o tein to fat in th<> h e a t p r o d u c i n g foods. T h e s e e l e m e n t s , for good egg pr od u ct i o n , s h o u l d be in t h e p r o p o r tion of a b o u t on e p a r t p r o t e i n to a b o u t fo u r p a r t s of th e fat a n d c a r b o h y d r a t e e le m e n t s . Now t h e r e is ■'nothing m y s t e r i o u s a b o u t this. Th e ca se m i y be i l l u s t r a t e d as follows: T h e p r o te i n e l e m e n t goes to build m us cl e ( le a n m e a t ) a n d t h e a l b u m i no us p a r t of t h e egg. T h e c a r b o h y d r a t e a n d fat e l e m e n t s f urn is h heat a n d f a t for th e body of t h e hen, a n d fat fo r t h e egg. And so, it a hen is fed w h e a t a lo ne t h e c a r b o h y d r a t e a n d f a t e l e m e n t s o v e r b a l a n c e the p r o tei n e l e m e n t s to such an extent th a t t h e hen would not only lack sufficient m a t e r i a l to r eb u il d t h e n u t u r a l w ea r of h e r body, b u t would have very li t tl e of t h e pro tein e le m en t to p u t i n to th e a l b u m i n o u s part of the egg. At t h e s a m e time, s he would get a g r e a t excess of tat a n d heat p r o d u c ing e l e m e n t s which s he could not m a k e use of so f a r as egg pr od u ct i o n was c o nc ern ed , a n d th e excess would p r o b a b l y go into fat on th e body of t h e hen, i n st e a d of into eggs in th e egg ba sk et. (To be c o n ti n u e d ) THE MNG and THE KiD San F r a n c i s c o — This o ug h t to be a sho rt story and its title o u g h t to be " T h e King a n d the Kid.” The King I t Albert of Belgium. The kid is R ic ha rd Slprelle of San Fran cis co , eleven years old. Th e K in g had e n t e r e d his au to m o bi le a f t e r his official reception a t the City Hall here a n d no d o u b t t h o u g h t himself safe, s u r r o u n d e d cs I o was by secret service men, soldiers, and police. E n t e r the kid: leaping on the r u n n i n g b o a rd of King Al be rt' s machine, he t h r u s t into th e King's hand a t hrift S t a m p with a card on which to p as te it. " K i n g Alb ert ," said th e kid to the King, " d o n ' t you wa n t a T h r if t S t a m p ? ’ T h e boy with his na tty ov ers ea s s o ld i e r ’s cap In hand smilingly a wa ite d I ivt ans we r. T h e King took the card a n d s t a m p ; said "TJiank you,” and the incident in th e K i n g ’s life and Ihe epic In the ki d's life closed then and t h e r e with a f or w ar d lurch of th e aujo- moblle, h aving th e kid behind. “ I Just w an te d t h e King to k n o w , ” said Ric hard, " w h a t a ch an ce Ame ric a gives ns kids to le a r n how to save so that when the King gets back home maybe he will m a k e T hr ift S t a m p s (or Bel gian kids.

Needless to say, Rich ard Siprelle is In the movies, so if you see a pi ct ur e of the King in his a u t o m o bile with a kid on th e r u n n in g boa rd, you will kno w all ab o ut It. SLAVES OF CHANCE “Th e habit of th rift te n d s to g.vn clear eyes, good digestion, efficient muscles * * « Young people, e s pecially, should economize, always re memberitig th at we should have eve ry thing we really need. It is folly to skimp in eating for the sake of saving, or to wear dowdy raiment. Have what you need, but do not buy things you do not need. But tb èr e is a Joy In going without things *t tine tang In elimi nating the superfluous. 9 “ Loving labor and thrift go hand In hand. He who is not thrifty Is a slave to circum: tance.
