To Avoid Floor Eggs
How can floor eggs be avoided?
This problem faces many poultry
men, particularly those with recent
ly housed pullet flocks. It is al
so typical of flocks that have been
allowed to stay out on range for
some time after the laying has start
ed and,, that have, not yet got in the
habit of going ino the nests.
In addition to providing at lqast
one nest for every five layers, it is a
good plan to darken these nests so
that each lajter'will have some priv
acy when she lays. When floor lay
ing develops, some poultrymen spend
considerable ’time in their pens and
place in a nest each pullet that is seen
squa.tting in the corner by herself.
.This helps" to form the habit of. go
ing into, the nests. It is a rather lab
orious, procedure,. however, and is not
to be advised- eAcejpt as a final resort.
. If sufficient comfortable nests

(Experimental Farms News)
The problem of supplying water to
poultry is always a difficult one dur
ing winter months, especially for the
farmer who keeps a small flock as a
side-line tb other larger enterprises.
It can be overcome by the use of
ACTRESS AND HUSBAND1
A Swiss dispatch states German
authorities are searching for six act
ors and actresses, said to have set up
on Goebbels in the apartment of Lida
heated or thermos drinking fountains
or by replenishing the supply with
hot water at frequent intervals, stat
es E. T. Goring, Assistant, Dominion
Experimental Station, Kapuskasing,
Ont. These methods are satisfactory
but have certain disadvantages. The
former requires capital outlay and
upkeep, and the latter, regular if in
termittent attention which often will
greatly inconvenience other import
ant work.
A the Dominion Experimental Sta
tion at Kapuskasing, Ont,, it has
been found, from tests conducted ov
er a period of eight years, that clean
snow can be used in place of water
with excellent results.
Production of eggs is slightly de
creased, but it has been calculated the
cost of the other methods, outlined
above, will more han offset the slight
decrease.
The snow is placed in a fairly large
receptacle, such as a good sized wash
basin, on a small stand. The recept
acle is not filled more than two-thirds
full. This helps to prevent the snow
from being scattered on the floor.
Up to date the birds in this experi
ment have received a hot mash at
noon, but the experiment is now be
ing continued with the hot mash

The turnip is a humble little veg
etable with a flavor all its own — a
flavor that some do not care for but
many delight in. Plain mashed tur
nips appear regularly on thousands
of tables and never seem to lose their
charm.
But here are a couple of recipes
that call for the humble turnip and
allow it to step up a few rungs on
the ladder of fame. Try them, ye tur
nip- -Users,
way s-
and you will have new
to use yotir surplus turnips.
Turnips in Cream
turnips
cups- milk
tablespoons flour
tablespoons butlen
Salt and. pepper
Pare the turnips, cut them in small
pieces, cook until tender. Make a
white sauce of the flour,, fat,, milk and’
seasonings. Pour sau'ce over turnips
and!serve.
Turnip Shells- or Cups
6 large turnips'
Salt
Pare and remove the centers of the
turnips, leaving a clip’ one-half inch'in
thickness. Cook shells in boiling wat
er until tender. Just before cooking
is completed, add the salt. Cook the
centres in the same way and use for
stuffing cups or serve as* mashed tur
nips.
The turnip cups may be used as
cases for creamed or buttered peas,
beets, carrots, or any suitable vege
table or meat.Mt * *
