COD LIVER OIL

Much Needed in Winter as
Substitute for Sunshine.
Cod liver oil is
in winter rations
an important item
for poultry because
it helps to maintain egg production,
lay strong-shelled
vitamines A and
prevents lameness, and helps them to
eggs. It contains
D which promote
growth and maintain vitality and dis-

Clean Plant Necessary
to Heat Home Efficiently
Next to guarding against cracks and
other defects that may develop dur-
ing the heating season, the most im-
portant thing in the operation of a
heating plant during midwinter is to
keep it thoroughly clean, according to
the Holland Institute of Thermology
of Holland, Mich.
Soot and ashes in the gas passages
prevent the heat from passing into
the air that is carried to the rooms
upstairs. They also interfere with
draft action.
Flues should be thoroughly cleaned
at regular intervals; but a thorough
cleaning once a week is enough to
keep a modern vapor-air or super-cir-
culating warm-air heating plant in fine
operating condition, especially if it is
thoroughly cleaned by the suction
cleaner method at the beginning of
the season.

ter. Vitamine D in the oil is a sub-
stitute for direct sunlight, according
to poultrymen at the college, who say
‘its use, therefore, is most desirable
during winter and early spring when
direct sunshine cannof be used or
when little is available. 2

fed for its vitamine D; although vita-
mine A is present in the oil, it is not
so important as vitamine D because.
yellow corn and leafy green feeds
contain enough of vitamine A to meet
the ordinary requirements of poultry.
‘Poultrymen may use the cheaper|
grades of cod liver oil because they:
are less expensive and contain the es-
sential vitamines in the same quantity
as in the other grades. In feeding
cod liver oil during winter and early
spring, add 1 per cent of oil to the dry
mash portion of the poultry ration.
Roughly, this is slightly more than
“one pint of cod liver oil to 100 pounds
of mash. This quantity of oil in the
mash will provide approximately one-
half of 1 per cent of oil in the whole
ration of grain and mash.

© Whether the dairyman shall mix his:

is still an important ‘question. Before
it is definitely ‘decided the dairyman
‘should ask himself these questions:

Satisfactory Rations
for the Laying Flock:
According to the test work conduct-
ed at Wisconsin and other stations,
satisfactory corn belt rations for the
laying flock must contain plenty of
yellow corn, some form of milk and
leafy green feed, or a green feed sub-
‘stitute like fine green alfalfa or clo-
ver hay, to furnish vitamine A. Vita-
mine D, the ultra-violet ray factor, is
equally important. To get it in suffi-
cient quantities during the winter and
early spring months requires the use
“of cod liver eit or a good deal of di-
rect sunshine or sunshine received
through a glass substitute that really
admits the ultra-violet rays. Professor
Halpin recommended the use of all
three—cod liver oil in the laying mash,
an open shed or yard for good weath-i{
er, and effective glass substitute win- §°
dows.
