PULLET requires more feed
than a leen, if it is intended
that the pullet produce eggs.
A bird to lay well must have
a surplus of feed over and above
body maintenance. The excess of
feed above body maintenance goes
either towards growth, fat, or egg
production.
Poultry feeds are divided into two
classes: one, whole or cracked grains,
commonly called scratch tee], and
the other, ground grains, commonly
called mash.
Scratch feeds are generally fed
night and morning and are scattered
in straw in order to induce the birds
to scratch or take exercise. A mix-
ture of two or more kinds of grain
usually gives better results than one
single grain, largely because indi-
vidual birds' appetites vary from day
to day. A good mixture for the win-
ter months might contain as much
as fifty per cent. good corn, either
whole or cracked; if corn could not
be had and the birds were accus-
tomed to eating buckwheat, the
buckwheat would answer nearly as
well, or one could use twenty-five per
cent. buckwheat and twenty-five per
cent. corn. To the corn or buckwheat
could be added twenty-five per cent.
of barley, ten per cent. of wheat
screenings, and fifteen per cent. of
good oats. If one was obliged to do
so, almost any of the grains could
be fed alone with the exception of
oats. There is too much hull or busk
on oats to use entirely as a single
feed.
At present for a mash feed we
are using the standard hog feed. if
the ground grains are to be fed
moist or mixed with cooked house-
hold refuse then the mixture should
be one that will mix to a crumbly
state, but if fed dry in an open hop-
per the above is not so important.
The mash feed is the one where
the animal meals are generally given.
The amounts vary from ten to twen-
ty per cent. of the mixture. The ani-
mal meals used are commonly high
grade tankage and beef scrap.
Where one has plenty of skim milk
or buttermilk the other :animalfeeds
are unnecessary. Some use green cut
bone; cooked refuse meat, such as
fivers, lights, beef beads, etc.
A very good mash can be made
of one part each by measure of
ports, barley meal, and ground oats.
Corn meal could be used in the place
of the barley or with it. If one is
hort of green feed or roots, it would
e well to add one part of bran. Per-
aps the simplest mash to feed from
n open hopper is rolled or crushed
ats. We have used this, when the
irds bad milk to drink, for a num-
er of years with excellent results.
Laying hens require plenty of
reen feed. Cabbage is one of
he best green feeds. Roots are very
ood, but clover ]eaves should be
within reach as well as the roots.
prouted oats are used to a large
extent on poultry farms. When the
irds get accustomed to a green and
ucculent food it is generally wise
o give them all they will eat. A pen
1 fifteen pullets will eat a fair-sized
ead of cabbage almost every day
✓ one hundred hens will eat a peck
f sprouted oats day after day.
Grit and shell should always be
ithin easy access.—Prof. W. R.
Graham, 0. A. College, Guelph.

Abortiou Should Not Be Neglected.
Soule cases of abortion are the re-
sult of injury to the dam due to a
nasty fall or bad kick. In such cases
the trouble is not likely to spread to
other iuembers of the herd. With the
majority of abortion cases, however,
the trouble is due to an infectious
disease which is very readily spread
to other members of the herd.
The disease apparently is localized
almost entirely to the uterus. Here
an inflammation is produced which
may result in the expulsion of the
foetus, dead or alive, at any period
of gestation. In. most cases of infec-
tious abortion, however, the foetus is
expelled dead. A frequent complica-
tion of such a case is the retention
of the foetal membranes by the dani.
If these are not removed after a few
hours, death from blood poisoning is
almost sure to occur.
The bacilli which cause the disease
are present in large numbers in the
fluids, foetal membranes and foetus.
Consesluently, every caro is necessary
to prevent these from contaminating
anything with which other stock is
likely to come in contact, either di-
rectly or indirectly, All should be
gathered up carefully and burned or
else buried deeply in quick lime.
Then the hands and clothes of those
in attendance should be thoroughly
wash with a disinfectant, and a
strong disinfectant used freely all
around the stall, particularly on the
door.
The dam should be kept in a stall
by herself, as there will be a fluid
discharge from the vulva which may
last for weeks. DieintsCtants

WAS KI 1 G' -i . ,• ii'S OWN CITY
Khartoum Rebuff t by iiriiis]i Leader
After It Hid Deen Sacked by
Dervishes on Their Retreat.
A sentitnontul Interest will always
attach to Khartoum, for it is Kitchen-
ex's city. Ile fought his way to it up
the Ni'o, to find the old town blasted,
sacked and destroyed by the dervishes,
writes -a corre4l,nntlent. He is said to
have drawn the plans for the new
Khartoum on the sand with his own
hand, and the engeneers set to work
the same day to build it up. The
street,, and squares are laid out in the
design of a monster Union Jack.
All that was only in 1808, but the
new Khartoum Is already a place of
beauty and importance. There are
many groves of noble trees, a feature
only to be appreciated by the desert
dweller, for the d:rvishes were not
schooled in the refinements of modern
warfare. They sacked the town ron
their retreat, but they failed to girdle
the trees. They were only ignorant
savages and they did their best, but
thanks to their unfamiliarity with mod-
ern methods, I{hartoum has some beau-
tiful groves today. There are rose
gardens, too, that were planted by the
unfortunate Gordon himself.
The Blue Nile runs past the city;
river gunboats helped Kitchener to en-
compass its fall. The White Nile is
only a few miles away. These two
great arteries of trade stretch their
way southward into the unknown and
northward flows the united river to-
ward Cairo and the Mediterranean.
The trade of the town is augmented
by all manner of parties from the sav-
age interior, and about Khartoum are
native villagers built after the fashion
of all the tribes of the Sudan. The
people are drawn from al.the ends of
Africa, negroes and Arabs, and from
Europe and Asia coine,Syrians, Gres,'
"and Copts. The upper --glasses'
Egyptians in commercial circles; in the
political and administrative world the
English, of course, are dominant. It
Is a strange and cosmopolitan city that
has grown from the plan that Kitch-
ener sketched on the sand, with the
dead of the last day's fighting still un-
buried on the plain.
UNEARTHLY WAS THIS MUSIC
German Publication Reprimanded by
Press Agent for Mistranslation
of Adjective "Heavenly,"
The censorship of foreign language
publications by the post office depart-
ment won't be at all offensive to one
of the musical comedies which re-
cently opened in New York. And if
the censorship can extend to the
point of gathering altogether a certain
German periodical, then the press
agent will be even stronger for the
government.
His animosity dates back to the
hand -painted ticcount of the opening
of his play, -which he wrote and sent
out some twelve hours before the cur-
tain was raised on the premiere. How-
ever, his description of the charms of
the chorus, the plot, the scenery and
the personnel of the audience didn't
suffer on account of anything like that.
On the question of the beauty of the
music he was especially grandiloquent,
and when he called up the German edi-
torial offices the next morning he felt
that his grievance was just. But there
they -told him he had used a part of
his own copy, without changing a
single word, merely translating it into
German,
"Oh, you did!" raved the young press
agent, and his voice instinctively told
that he was tearing his hair. "I wrote
that the music was heavenly—and your
blained translation made it say that
the `music was unearthly!'"
Growth of Y. M. C. A.
In 1016 there were 2,757 Young
Men's Christian. associations in North
America, with a total membership of
680,023. They owned 782 plants and
buildings valued at $83,263,469, and
aggregate property, including real and
personal, at over $106,000,000. The
local associations with 4,353 secre-
taries and other paid officers, showed
sn enrollment of 152,160 men and boys
in Bible courses, and 82,358 others in
educational courses. The total operat-
izig expenses for all the associations
was $15,812,250. New buildings cost-
ing 011 together more than $6,000,000
were opened during the year, and by
the end of the year $8,900,000 had
been pledged toward the erection of
lmore than 40 additional buildings.

SALVATION s`MY
"FIRST TO SERVE—LAST TO APPEAL"
The Salvation Army has for 53 years been organized on a military basis—inured ete hardship,
sacrifice and service. It is always in action, day and night.
It has maintained Military Huts, Hostels and Rest Rooms, providing food and rest for tens of
thousands of soldiers each day. 1,200 uniformed workers and 45 ambulances have been in service
at the front—in addition to taking care of the needs of .soldiers' families here at home, assisting
the widows and orphans, and relieving distress arising from the absence of the soldier head of
the family.
Notwithstanding all the Government is planning to do, notwithstanding the pensions and the
relief work of other organizations, hundreds of cases of urgent human need are constantly de-
manding the practical help the Salvation Army is trained and equipped to render.

While it could do so, the Salvation Army has carried on without any general appeal. Now the
crisis is arising with the return of the 300,000 soldiers. The budget for essential work during the
coming year has been prepared. A million dollars must be raised to continue the after -the -war
activities, which include:
Hostels for Soldiers
Salvation Army Ilostels are vitally necessary for the
protection and comfort of the soldier at the many stop-
pieg places between Franco and his home here in
• Canada. 'these Hostels—or military hotels—provide
good food, wean beds, wholesome entertainment at a
price the soldier can afford to ray, if the boys did not
have a Hostel to go to, WIII034 would they go?

Keeping the Family Unit Intact
The women of the Salvation Army on their visiting
rounds accomplish the apparently impossible. Is the.
discharged soldier out of a job? They find him one.
Is the wife sick, the homework piling up, the children
neglected? . They nurse the wife, mu,her the children,
wash and scrub. .Is there urgent need for food, fuel,
clothes or medicine? They are supplied. It takes
stoney, of course, but more important is the loving
spirit of service in which the work is done.

The service of the Salvation Army, founded on sacrifice, demonstrates the true spirit of the Mas-
ter. It is directed to the extension of the Kingdoms of Christ. For two generations the Salvation
Army has stood out and out for God.
It approaches practical problems in a practical way and achieves RESULTS. It co-operates with
all—overlaps none. It recognizes neither color, race nor creed. It is always in action, day and
night. No organization does greater work at less cost. To carry on its great work it must have
