(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Every poultryman should be on guard continually against rats. They destroy feed, eggs and fowls, and are Inveterate enemies to all kinds of poul try, from chicks, sqtlabs, ducklings and young turkeys just out of the shell to tough old birds awaiting the hatchet at the close of t a long and noisy career. Although most of their depredations are confined to eggs and young birds, when driven by hunger rats kill full- grown fowls at roost, biting them through the head or neck. Complaints about rats have come to the United States biological survey, de partment of agriculture, from many A Dead Rat Can’t Get Chickens—Use a Trap. quarters. For example, a farmer in Virginia reported 26 turkeys killed by, these pests In a night. Another, in Kansas, lost between 200 and 300 chickens and many eggs by rats dur ing the course of one summer. His neighbors had similar experiences. From New Jersey has come a report of rats killing young ducks. An Ohioan has complained that the animals bur row beneath his coops and take chicks from under the hen. In cer tain neighborhoods of Massachusetts half a season’s hatch of chickens and ducklings have been killed by rats. Rats multiply rapidly when left un disturbed, where there is plenty to eat. One pair may Increase to more than 2,000 in,,a single year. Whoever allows his property to become over run by them invites vexation and loss. MIXTURE FOR LITTLE CHICKS Give Equal Parts of Hard-Boiled Eggs and Rolled Oats or Stale Bread Soaked in Milk. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) For the first three days chicks may be fed a mixture of equal parts of hard-boiled eggs and rolled oats or stale bread, or stale bread soaked in milk. When bread and milk are used care should be taken tc squeeze all the milk out of the bread. From the third or fourth day commercial chick feed may be fed until the chicks are old enough to eat wheat screenings or cracked corn. PLAN FOR MARKETING EGGS Brown and White Shells Should Be Placed in Separate Packages— Keep All Culls. (Prepared by the United Stateg Depart ment of Agriculture.) Market white-shelled and brown- shelled eggs In separate packages. Eggs irregular in shape, those which are unusually long or thin-shelled, or which have shells otherwise defective, should be kept by the producer for home use, so that breakage in transit may be reduced as much as possible. All males except those needed for breeding purposes, should be got rid of as soon as possible. One of the best Inside linings for poultry houses is tar paper, tacked on smoothly. Mites do not bother it. It Is said that farmers lose millions of dollars annually on account of poor methods of producing and handling eggs. Be a crank about cleanliness, mites, lice and disease in your poultry yard and see If It doesn’t pay a big divi dend. , v- • •»*»*■* * * * ‘ Diseases of poultry are frequently transmitted through the drinking wa ter; the drinking fountain should be cleaned daily. Chicks on good range get practically all they need in the way of mineral salts through the fresh vegetables, but ranges are often overrated. >■ * * * ‘ Help save eggs by keeping the. nests clean and free from lice. Gather eggs twice dally, keep them in a cool, dry room or cellar, and market twice a week. Little chickens are often bothered with the lurge gray-head lice. These may be destroyed by greasing the head and throat with lard or sweet oil and using a lous» powder elsewhere. f!r SIXTH DISTRICT Agricultural & Mechanical School Barnesville, Georgia.
