RATION FOR YOUNG TURKEYS Fowls Ar* Finicky About Food and Refuse Anything Not Already Familiar to Them. Young turkeys are very particular about their food and will not utually touch any food that la not already familiar to them, For thia reason the article* of food that they will need as they grow older are supplied from th* first. Do not feed until the poults are at least twenty-four hours old. and then be careful not to overfeed. A satisfactory first feed Is a small amount of finely crumbled boiled egg. shell Included. This Is given three.to six times a day for a week. After the second day a supply of clean water and fine grit should always be available. A sprinkle of fine chick feed I* given along with tbe crumbled egg. since grain forms a large part of the ration, being fed three time* daMy from the second to the sixth week. This grain may be a good, clean commercial eblek feed or a mix ture of fine cracked corn, cracked wheat and oatmeal.

After the turkeys sre a month or six weeks old. mixed whole grains should be added to the chick feed and may replace It aa soon as tbe turkeys are found to take the larger grain.

I am full of funny sayings and Jokes, so you all can stop your quar reling. for I am the most popular book here." Little Boy stood listening. He was afraid tbe books would all tumble out, they were so excited, when out from a book Jumped a little girl and. bow ing to all the books, she said, “I am ashamed of yout The Idea of quar reling about which U tbe most pop ular !” “Don't you know that there are all sorts of people In tbe world snd that they all Ilk* different books?

Little Boy had never had a play mate; he began to smile. “Alic*” he said, “do come and play with me. Per haps we can catch tbe butterfly.” Alice turned around. “Oh.
