IMPORTANT FACTORS
IN CARE OF CHICKS
The care of the baby chick is of
greatest Importance during the early
part of the chick’s life. Cureless
handling often results In loss of
chicks and stunted growth, points out
D.' H. Hall, extension poultry specialist
atGlemson college, who adds the fol
lowing suggestions.
In jeafing for the baby chicks the
first' tKlng that should be done Is to
■ see ‘that they have a good place to
sffrep it night. The coops or the house
yyhere the baby chicks sleep should be
kept clean, dry, and sanitary, should
be free from lice and mites, and
should afford protection from cats
and nocturnal vermin, such as ruts,
which prey upon chicks.
The mother of the baby chicks
should he confined in a coop or
house, and the baby chicks should be
allowed free range. If the mother is
confined, the baby chicks will range
around the mother, but will remain
within a limited area of her. In case
of rain or hawks, the mother can call
the baby chicks to her and protect
them In the coop. When the mother Is
ullotved free range, the weaker baby
chicks will be lost or become so weak
that they will die on the range. The
mother will take the baby chicks out '
' through damp grass and early morn
ing dew, thereby chilling them and
weakening their bodies down to where
disease may easily overcome them.
The baby chicks should be confined
In- early morning, while the mother
hen should he confined at nil times, If
best results are to be obtained from
the care of the baby chick, and the
house should be kept dry and clean.
Proper Amount of Feed
for Flock of Chickens
As to how much to feed, a question
frequently asked, we can do no better
than refer to the advice offered by the
United States Department of Agricul
ture; “The feeder must use his own
Judgment In deciding how much grain
to give the hens, as the amount of
feed which they will eat varies with
the different pens and at different
seasons of the year. They will eat
more feed in the spring while laying
heavily than In the summer and fall
when laying fewer eggs. A fair gen
eral estimate Is to feed about one
quart of scratch grains and an equal
weight of mash (about IV4 quarts)
dally to 13 hens of the general purpose
breeds, such as the Plymouth Rocks,
Rhode Island Reds or Wyandottes, or
to 10 hens of the smaller or egg breeds.
This would be about pounds of
scratch grains and rnash dally to 100
Leghorns and about 914 pounds each
to general purpose fowls. If liens
have free range or large runs contain
ing green food a general purpose hen
will eat about 75 pounds of feed a
year and a Leghorn will eat about 55
pounds, in addition to the green stuff
consumed.”
Preventive Measures to
Guard Against Diseases
Early In the spring, when everything
else around the farm Is helng cleaned
and put in shape for the summer, a
coat of whitewash will add greatly to
the appearance and sanitation of the
Interior of the poultry house. It Is
the cheapest of all paints and may be
used on the exterior of the building,
too. If so desired.
Whitewash Is made by slaking about
ten pounds of quicklime In a*pafl with
two gallons of water, covering the pall
with cloth or burlap and allowing It
to slake for one hour. Water Is then
added to bring the whitewash to a
consistency which may be applied
readily.
A weatherproof whitewash for ex
terior surfaces may be made as fol
lows: (1) Slake one bushel of quick
lime In twelve gallons of hot water;
(2) dissolve two pounds of common
salt and one pound of sulphate of zinc
In two gallons of boiling water; pour
(2) Into (1), then add two gallons of
skim milk and mix thoroughly. White
wash Is spread lightly over the sur
face with a broad brush.
Poultry Hints
» # «
A young duck should begin to lay
at about five months of age.
• • •
Leghorns can get along on three
Square feet of henhouse space; the
larger breeds need four square feet.
• • •
How often the old litter should he
removed and replaced by new depends
on the number of birds In the house,
and dryness of the floor. ,
• • •
Do not take all the eggs to market,
the children have all they want
for breakfast. It will pay you.
• * •
Give the little poults a fresh supply
•f clean water at least twice a day
and thoroughly scald the water
dishes twice a week.
• • •
Ducks will seldom eat enough grit
from a box or hopper, hence many
feeders mix coarse saud or fine grit
In their mash feed In the proportion
•f about five ?er cent of the hulk h>
measure. *

Operators Go Before Governor Peay
Nashville, Tenn. —Claiming that they
cannot operate their properties with
any profit under the 1920 wage scale
at the present prices of coal, and al
■ leging that the miners breached the
former contract, operators of coal
mines of the Nashville, Chattanooga
and St. Louis railway and the Ten
nessee Central discussed with Gover
nor Peay the situation with respect
to the mines located on these two
road?. The operators are willing to
deal with their employees collectively
they say.
Ex - Beauty Makes Plea For Lover
Paris. —A wretched and tearful
young woman, still showing traces of
former beauty, hobbled on crtuches
into the office of the public prosecutor
the other day and made a plea for the
release of Harry Hussey, held in pris
on to await extradition on the re
quest of New York detectives, who
have identified him as Arthur Tour
billon, international thief and suspect
in the now historic Shattuck robbery
on Fifth avenue, New York. The wom
an said she was Helen Patterson, for
former wife of a Chicago millionaire.
Profit Divisions Mark Differences
Washington. The Hooker-White-
Atterbury offer for Muscle Shoals
was explained to the senate agricul
ture committee at the public hearing
by Elon H. Hooker, president of the
Hooker Electro Chemical company, of
Niagara Falls. His bid, he said, was
closely akin to government operation,
conserved the great natural power re
sources for the government, and then
brought talent and experience into the
enterprise.
HUDSON AND ESSEX CARS
THE EVIDENCE DETROIT GIVES
Sales leadership in Detroit is a far more important endorsement
than its similar position elsewhere. For motor car values are
better understood than anywhere else in the world.
More than 200,000 Detroit automobile workers know the inside of
every automobile success. They appraise values as experts. They
buy the cars they believe in.
For three successive months Hudson-Essex sales in Detroit and
throughout Michigan have outnumbered any other makes with
the exception of two widely known low-priced four-cylinder cars.
This unanswerable evidence is proof of what the most critical
and best informed group of motor buyers in the worlk think of
Hudson and Essex.
The car§ they buy are the cars it is safe for you to buy.
