By rubbing the feathers slightly with
the hand the powder will penetrate

MEAT SCRAP SUBSTITUTES
Peanut,Sey-bean, er Velvet-bean Meal
Qlvee Results With Laying Hens
la tho eighteen months preceding
Jaauary, 1915. tho price of taeat or'
beef scrap has increased 100 percent,
while In some places It has boon dim-
cult to socure It at' all, making It nd
visable to use something ia place of
this food. Previous experiments havo
shown that beef scrap or some other
animal protein feod is essential In a
mash to get good egg production and
to produce egg economically, especi
ally during tii winter. Rations for
laying hens containing peanut meal,
soy-bean meal, and velvet-bean meal
have been usod with good results
since tho 1st of November on tho
Government poultry farm.
How Rations Were Mixed.
Half of the beef scrap normally fel
in the mash has. been replaced by
these feeds, making tho rations as
follows: A scratch mixture of two
parts cracked corn and one part oats.
and a mash of nlno parts corn iuoaI,
five parts middlings, four parts bmn,
two parts beef scrap, and two parU
of either peanut meal, soy-bean incnl,
or velvet-been meal. All of thcas
parts are by weight. A similar ia-

Mr. Brewer Is working In co-opera'

to supply practically every demand
tor farm labor. An apparent labor
shortage has In somo districts cut
down tho acreage, but tho proposed
policy of exempting all 'farm help
from tho second draft until after har
vest has greatly encouraged tho far
mer.
A great increaso in tho use of labor
saving machinery on tho farm has
tended still further to reduco the
threatened labor shortage. Farm
tractors and two-men combines are
being ordered in considerable num
bers in somo districts.
Farm wagons are higher than last
year, but a scale of $60 a month with
board has been agreed upon as fair
alike to all parties. Harvest wages
will range slightly higher, depending
upon the character of the work.

HOW TO SET A HEN

where they are easily secured. Those

a considerable period of time to ac

The first sign of a hen being broody
(wanting t o set) is that she stays
longer on the nest when laying, and

remain and make a clucking noUe,

Yon can't eat yoar cake and have

this fact, the poultry specialists of the

ture say, will add 150,000,000 eggs to
our food supply this year without re
ducing our supply of chicken meat,
investigators have found that because
poultry brings 2 cents a pound more
In winter than In late spring, many
"armors In the South havebeen throw,
fng away valuable egg profits Just to
get 8 cents more per hen. They be
lieve that if farmers will keep their
laying hens and sell their eggsand
iiivii luurnei inu oirus in uie late
spring, they will not only add to the
food supply but actually increase
their profits 50 per cent per hen.

Music gives utterance to something

"Music Is of great udvantoge to

equalizes them, creating a spirit of
brotherhood, nnd takes their minds oft

not by singing the common popular

"The value of music In bringing to

there Is a neighborhood there (s a
