credit for every egg they lay and every
carcass they give up for food. This
naturally implies Unit you must keep
an egg record as well ns a ledger ac
count. You must know just what the
hens are doing and what they cost you.
An element that is often lacking in
poultry food is protein, the most ex
pensive part of the food and most need
ed. It makes blood, muscle, bone, eggs
and feathers. It may be supplied in
feeding lean meat, green cut bone and
straps, wheat, oats, alfalfa and some
clover. During summer, when fowls
have their liberty, they are able to pick
up a good deal of food containing this
material, thereby balancing their own
ration.
From January Farm Jouknal.
The Poultry Yard-
Corn should be fed at the eveninu j
feed as it is very heating and slow in j
digesting.
Don't buy too large an incubator for j
the iirst attempt. One-hundred-egg
size is large enough if the hatch hap
pens to be a failure.
Live the liens oats to help out Hie
bill of fare. I f the oats are in the sheaf,
so much the better. Thrashing out a
bundle of oats is good exercise for the;
hens on a cold morning.
Grit must lie hard and sharp to do
the work of properly grinding up the
food in the crop. Gravel, as a general
thing, is not rough enough, and crack
ed oyster shell is too soft.
The farm poultry flock loo often is]
composed of chickens, ducks, geese,
] turkeys and pigeons, all living together
as one common family. That is a mi:
take. Each kind should have its own
quarters.
The best way to keep the premises
clean of lice and mites is to begin in
January to wage war. Once a week
pour kerosene over the roosts, into the
i cracks of the nest boxes, and along the
1 dropping boards. By making this
] weekly duty there will not be anytrou-
1 hie when hot weather arrives,
j Nature has kindly provided such
I warm coats for ducks and turkeys tiiut
they can well stand the cold. A dry,
] open shed makes a very good roosting
place for either ; but the turkeys prefer
; to roost on the Jimb of a tree, and the
i higher up the limb the better tiiey are
suited.
Open up an account with the hens.
Charge them with every item of ex-

ziNE makes the important aim ounce-
men t that it has secured the serial
rights of Jack London’s latest novel,
“Martin Lden.” it will begin in the j
February issue of that popular Maga
zine, widen was founded by Joe! i
Chandler Harris and is edited by .J ulian j
Harris and Don Marquis.
The critics who have read “Martini
Eden” state that it is gripping, vivid
and picturesque,- and is such a storj !
i s only Jack London could write. The|
editors of Uncle Remus’s—The Home;
Mac: vzinh liclieve it to be a story that i
every man and womam should read, as
it contains a big lesson, and in its ar
raignment of false ideals, is both noble
and notable.
Martin Eden, t he character who is !
really the book Is so keenly true that;
lie seems lurid with life. He is intense,
big in bis ideas and ideals, and with
out faltering, yet unselfishly, he strives
ceaselessly and courageously for the
genuinely l>est in life.
“It is just the story that should be
printed serially,’’ stale Llie editors ol

zine, for there is much you will want
to learn more about and understand
Potter before going on, and the lime be
tween each issue of the Magazine gives
the reader ample opportunity.
Mend oO cents in stamps to the Sunny
Mouth Publishing Company, and they
will send you Uncle Remus's—The
Home Magazine eight months, begin
ning with the February issue which
contains the iirst installment of “Mar
