Some prefer barley and corn, however. Either barley or oats, if mixed with butter- milk and the hulls removed, would be a preferable mixture. The buckwheat has the objectionable quality of hav- ing a woody, fibrous hull which is not good feed. A mixture of all three or four would do pretty well. Some records sent in give the costs of feeding one part ground oats witi hulls removed and two parts butter- milk as being 6% cents per pound, while the cost of feeding on equal parts ground barley, oats, and corn, with the oat and barley hulls removed and with the same relative amount of buttermilk, averaged about the same. A mixture of 200 parts corn meal, 100 parts ground oats, hulls removed, 50 parts red dog flour, 3 parts tallow, 706 parts buttermilk, averaged a cost of about 5 cents per pound. Using equal parts ground oats and barley, hulls removed, one part beef scraps and eight parts buttermilk, the cost was shown to be 434 cents per pound. Of course, these were not figured lately, but the comparisons remain. Th: Cornell fattening ration of 100 pounds corn meal, 100 pounds buckwheat middlings, 100 pounds oat flour, 30 pounds beef scraps, and one part charcoal, is considered, too, a very fattening ration. costs Sodium Fluoride Best for Destroying Vermin Sodium fluoride is one of the best substances to use for getting rid of chicken lice. It can be purchased at almost any drug store. It can be ap- plied by the “pinch” method, or by mixing with four parts of talc or fine dust and using a dusting can or by making a dip. The pinch method is most commonly used. In this method the hen is held in such a way that the feathers loosen up and one pinch is applied to the head, one on the neck, two on the back, one on the breast, one below the vent, the tail, one on each thigh and one on the underside of each wing. This appli- cation should be repeated in about eight days so as to kill the lice that were in the egg form during the first application. Blue ointment is asually mixed with equal portions of grease. Three pea- sized portions are rubbed into the one on feathers—one around the vent and the other two under each wing. If head lice are present it is usual- ly better to apply some lard with 10 to 20 per cent kerosene thoroughly mixed with it or with 5 per cent of carbolic acid. Producing Capons for Consumption at Home The matter of producing capons for | home consumption has not had proper emphasis. Everyone is aware of the superiority of meat from unsexed larger animals and as a rule such male animals are never used unless operated upon. But the fact that ca- pon meat is as superior to rooster meat as steer beef is to bull beef is not generally realized. The farmer and poultryman should not be content with a low grade food stuff when it is very easily possible to have the best. The time will come, no doubt, when we | will insist on ca_on quality in fou Is as much as we do now for steer beef, nn esferferdorfesfesgestestortesdesfeofeotiotesfestefortesteodesetesterdets "oe 2 * ’, * Poultry Hints * ooo tea sede eee dese a se tee ee be ete le oe sfergederdeduededoteloefedofetotogefe doit Man has to hustle, but a hen makes money “laying around.” * * * Sick birds should be segregated and proper remedies applied. Probably vac- cination is as good a remedy and pre- ventative as can be used. * * * The value of clean feed in prevent- ing poultry disease is being realized more and more by poultrymen. All feed should be given to chicks in clean troughs or hoppers. ss = It is a good plan, when starting into the turkey raising business, or if in it now, to plan the production program over a period of more than one year, If this is done yards can be planned so that they may be rotated and so that the poults can be raised on fresh ground. * - - Poor layers have the opposite char- acteristics of those given to be used in the selection of breeders. They have thick, rigid pelvic bones; but two or three finger widths spans between these and the rear of the keel bone. * . = If a strict separation of turkeys and chickens is to be secured, as is vitally | necessary for success with the former, the producer is obliged to raise his poults in confinement. In addition to the value of this method in prevent- ing disease it also has its merits in that the poults can be given closer | supervision. Hens don’t stop laying to molt. They molt when they stop laying. Of course, it's natural for them to let up on egg production, so they can grow their new winter coats, | the flap { laps over the back, where it is | by a FIRST ROMPERS FOR FIRST STEPS Baby Should Be Unimpeded by Skirts of Any Sort. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) When the historic day comes on which baby takes his first steps alone, let us hope it will find him suitably attired for so momentous an occa- sion. That is to say, unimpeded by skirts of any sort, his sturdy little legs free of all encumbrances, his arms, too, without restricting bands when he reaches up to the chair that steadies him, pulls himself up, bal- ances on his feet for a moment, and starts off, From the time a baby's activities extend beyond his crib to a play pen, the best garment for him to wear is a romper. It must be somewhat dif- ferent from the rompers he will wear later, for practical reasons. The fact that diapers are still worn must be given consideration both in the cut of the garment and in its method of fastening. His need for incessant tivity also influences the design of his rompers, In planning rompers for children of various ages, the bureau of home eco- nomics of the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture has given cial attention to the needs ac- When Baby Takes His First Steps— Front View of Rompers. and the toddler.

Incidental to these main lines of study are also a number of activities which are popu- lar either because they enable club members to add charm and interest to their homes, or to increase their in- comes in some way. Basketry is one of these lesser proj- ects which the women like both be- rause through it they can make at- tractive things for their houses, and because they can often sell at a fair profit what they do not use. The pic- ture which was taken by the United States Department of Agriculture, shows rural women in Missouri who are learning to make baskets of dif- ferent materials. Those in county, Missouri, are using raflia.

Mary Knowlton was the same. | She had the same soft pink face, the | same “knack” with flowers, the same | cheerful enthusiasm for small every- | day things. Only Stella Marlowe was | different.

Happiness? Happiness, here she | yawned gracefully—happiness was | not for the many. She confessed | that Mary's garden, her white green- | shuttered house, exquisitely kept, | were dear.

She was | glad her short hair curled naturally, | that she knew how to dress for a morning in a country garden, how to dress for any occasion. “Stella!” The man’s voice was low, vibrant, of a certain compulsion. His had clasped hers. The strong, firm, quick pressure was not unrevelatory. He stood away when she had with- drawn her hand, his eyes appreciative of her, of her dress, her hair, the pic- ture she was among the flowers. “Philip Mase! You? Why—" She laughed. But the laugh was not the kind of laugh that had bubbled up from her throat twenty years ago. It was not, as that other had been. a laugh at Phil Mase. It was the laugh of an absurdly embarrassed. uncer- tain woman trying to hide herself be- hind something, anything. Philip Mase cast a quick glance about the garden, toward the house. “You and Mary are through early,” he said and admiration his fine eyes. “Oh, I didn’t help. I came to rest—" she began and knew she had said the glowed in wrong thing. A look again at her from the dark eyes.

And then she did not know what to do. This summer morning had lost its savor. She—she!—io be disapproved of by Philip Mase, once her adoring slave!

Stella and the laundress | and the hired man carried her to her immaculately ordered bedroom, laid | her on her small austere bed. The doctor came and ordered her to stay just there for three days. She said she couldn't, the cherries—Stella hastily assured her with a cheerful- ness entirely simulated that she would attend to the cherries, would be glad to. Mary, looking at the same moment doubtful and grateful, turned | her white face away and closed her | eyes. “No, I sure can’t stay,” the indig- nant washlady reiterated. “I'll try to | finish the wash, though I got a whale of a big wash waitin’ for me to Miz Jedge Perkins’.

No girl could have lived until she was twenty in the village and not have learned to “do up” fruit. At seven o'clock that evening she was washing bowls and funnels and spoons and the huge preserving ket- tle. She heard a car purr by to the gate and stop.
