Feeding the Young Chicks.
When the chicks are taken from
the incubator, they are put around the
bard coal brooder stove. The floor is
covered with sand and fine gravel;
aleo some crushed burned bone. They
begin almost at once to eat of both.
Then when they are forty-eight hours
old, they may have sour milk, in
wady covered dishes so they cannot
drown in it.
If sour milk is available, I de not
give water until the chicks are theee
weeks old. My experience is that
chicks around artificial heat will drink
so mulch water they become sick. If
water is given it should not be cold
and should be removed after a few
moments of drinking, After three
Weeks they may have it all the time.
Chicks should not be fed until past
forty-eight hours ol,d. Then the first
feed is hard -boded eggs with powdered
charcoal and pulverized burned bone
well mixed with it, one egg to about
one hundred chieks. I only feed two
or three times the first day of feeding
ars these Is so much danger of over-
feeding when so young.

I green onions, cabbage, and often a
large raw potato. I like to keep gran-
ulated charcoal in a feeder from the
start. They eat much of it and it is
a. guard against disease. Their sand
floor must be cleaned and new sand
and gravel added to keep them sup-
plied -with grit. I throw their feed
to them until they are six weeks old:
After that both mash and grains
are put into a self -feeder from which
they may bola themselves. A barrel
of water with a spigot plae.ed under a
tree makes an ideal waterer that does
not need to be filled often. With a
shallow trough under .the tap, a
slight turn keeps the water dripping
just enough to keep a good supply be-
fore the chicks at all times. After
the chicks get old enough to take all
their feed from the self -feeders they
are but little aaditional work.
In changing the herd from `dry feed
to pasture it is advisable to make
the change rather slow, especially
with heavymillting cows. Early pas-
ture always contains a high per cent.
of water and a low amount of dry
matter. It is next to impossible for
heavy -milking cows to coneume en-
ough of eueh feed to supply the necs-
saay amount of nutrients to maintain
maximum. milk production.
I find it a splendid practice when
turning to pasture, in the spring to
continue feeding the winrber ration in
such amounts as the caws will readily
consume. If the herd is allowed to
pasture only a harlf-day at a time for
the first week or two, most of the cows
will continue to eat a good ration of
both roughage and g -rain at night and
in the morning. For the first day or
two after being termed to pasture the
cows may not take well to the rough-
age feed, but in a very shut time they
will gradually come back to their reg-
ular ration. Another reason why the
1. change from dry feed to pasture
should. be done gradually, is that the
sudden ehange prod -aced a marked
taste in the milk whieh, if supplied
to retail trade hi very likely to cause
some dissatisfaction.

As age advances, the amount of sleep
