A hen which 113 in the best laying condition lias fiOnio surplun fat in lier body, This means that her bodily wanes have been supplied and tlaere is eome food to spare. She has sur- plue euergy. A very at hen seldom la,y0 well. A poor hen caun,ot lay well. The first part of the eggs to be formed is the yolk, which contains 30 per ent. of albumen (a form of Protein) and 64 per cent. of fat. Food Is first used to =japan the body. New growth 2,nd production generally come from the surplus after the bod- ily wants have been satisfied. A large part of a hen's food should be cereale. Corn is an excellent grain, It is, perhaps, the grain most relish- ed by fowls. Therein lies the danger, Fowls eat it so etreedily, that being a fattening food, they are likely to be- come over -fat If It Is fed too freely. Wheat is, perhaps, the best grain for poultry, and its bi-products are among the safest aad most satisfactory of foods. Heavy oats are, perhaps, next In value, Light oats are a delusion. Oat shucks, that make up about 35 to 40 per cent. of the total weight of light oats, have ()lily about the same food value as oat straw. Peas, though, difficult to secure, are the eicnest and one of the best poultry goods. Barley Is excellent, Buck- wheat is fattening and usually ex- pensive, therefore it should be fed -sparingly, and as a rule only in the winter season. Fowls are naturally worm and in- sect hunters. They must have meat in some farm, and much of it in order to do their best. This is not only abundantly shown in practice, but it has been proved by experiment. Un- doubtedly the best food is fresh meat. It also keeps longer, and is more eas- ily fed when cooked than in the raw state. Green cut bone, handled pro- perly, is excellent. It Is safe to feed In an egg ration, onestenth to one- fifth by weight of meat in the total ration, the quantity varying with the sichness of the meat and other foods used. It Is best to mix the meat in the meal feed. It is, however, fed separately, with perhaps equally good results. Skim milk Is a valuable) source of animal protein, and should be fed liberally if possible, not only to mois- ten the Mash, but it also may be placed where the fowls may drink it. Fresh -made clover, or alfalfa hay, or clover meal, mixed in the mash and scalded, is much enjoyed by poultry, and is profitable for food, as it adds bulk to the ration and makes it vari- ety, eupplies valuable nutrients, par- ticularly protein and mineral matter, and therefore saves the buying of grain. The second growth of clover is to be preferred, because it has a larger proportion of leaf and seed and less woody fibre than the first growth. It will be seen from analysis that ton for ton clover hay contains a little more mineral matter, more than half as much protein and about one-third niore carbohydrates than wheat bran. The great value of green food lies in its ability to aid In the digestion of other foods, thereby promoting good health, which means more eggs. For summer feeding, clover and rape are among the best green foods. They should be provided In unlimited quantities. For winter feeding cab- bage and maugel beets are perhaps the beat for feeding row. But for cookine turnips and small potatoes are preferable. No objection has ever arisen on account of the flavor of flesb or eggs from feeding any of these foods liberally. More than 05 per cent. of every egg is water. Water also makes up 55 per cent. of the hen's body. Tilden a hen has water, she cannot make eggs nor can she properly digest her food. True, all foods contain some water. Vege- tables contain a great deal, but all these eourees will not be sufficient to more than supply the bodil7 wants. Much water is used in digesting the food and much passes off in breathing. Many a hen that is otherwise well fed fails to lay because ehe is eompelled to go with- out water' or to accept the alternative, to suels itout of the snok bank. When laying freely a flock of 50 hens will drink from 4 to 8 quarts of water ea& day. The richer the food is in protein the more water fowls will drink, be- cause it is required in digestion. The warmer the weather the more they re- quire because znore is thrown off by the body. The more eggs laid the more water is consumed. Because it is needed in their menu- faeture, grit enables the gizzard to is the food for digestion. It s a fowl's falee teeth. When grit beeomea worn out it is expelled. If needed Ataxy material cannot be secured the food must remain unground in the giz- zard until it is softened and falls to pieces. This snakes slow, imperfeet di- gestion. The hardest grit Is beet. Al- ways keep it before the fowls. Fowls do not really begin to satisfy their hunger until the food has been. ground and expelled by the gizzards. Fowls hAve been known to starve to death with a crop full of food, merely because it could not pass to the gizzard and theuce on to be digeeted. They- need more lirae than is furnished in the or- dinary ration. Wheat, bran, clover and turnips are perticularly rich in. mineral matter. ,This is one reason why they are so val- liable for young growieg animals, Virhen the ration lecke mineral matter, the egg I • 5 Take A Scoopful 01 Each— Side Ity Side Take "St. Lawrence" Granulated in one scoop—and any other sugar in the other. toek at "$t.

Lack of mineral matter in the food is the principal rea- son why hens eat eggs. Cracked oys- ter shells, mortar, bone, etc„ should be accessible to fowls at all times. This Is natural. A person soon tires of even the best food in steady diet. The ex- tent to which an animal relishes its ration has mu& to do with digestion. A variety of grain also gives individe uals in the flock a chance in a, measure to gratify a natural deeire to eat the food which they prefer. Whether the different grains will give better results fed mixed or separately is a disputed point. Very likely it makes little dif- ference, so long as the fowls get them. Try to find this out yourself. We feed. the grains mixed, but vary the proper - tion and kind from time to time. Avoid sudden, radical changes. Exercise pro- duces warmth, provides pleasure and promotes warth. The only rule for feeding is the rule for appetite. Keep the appetite good. To do this is the fine art of feeding. It cannot be taught. It must be learn- ed. by practice. Fowla do not eat the same amount of food each day. Those that are laying eat far more than fowls of the same age and. breed not laying. Pullets not laying .eat more than the same weight of old. hens not laying. Some breeds eat more than others, all other conditions being equal. More- over, individuals of the same variety and a.g,e differ int, their capacity to con- sume food. Therefore, hens cannot be fed by rule of weight or measure.

It is not a matter to be judged by Its prob- able effects. It is not a privilege to bo granted as a courtesy to the weaker sex. It is a right possessed by every citizen. male or female, that can be with- held in a democracy only at the cost of injustice and wrong. It is the inalienable right of tho governed to have a voice In the snaking of the laws that govern theme.

The problem pasturing of a, herd on an acre eown to rapt clover and barley, at the Tato of 3 pounds of dwarf Easex rape, 7 pounds of red clover and. ono bushel of barley, I am convinced that the plan outlined by Commissioner Huson, of New York, and practiced. yearly by him, is more economical and will insure better re - suite. "Mr. Huson divides this aere, into three or four paddocks, with movable hurdles thirty inches high. In Septem- ber he sows rye in one and turns onto that in early spring, where the shoats thrive wonderfully. By the time it is gone over, but not eaten too close, the paddock of rape, sown in early spring, as soon as the ground is WarM, is ready. Then, follows, one of clover and one of oats and peas. By the time these have been fairly eaten down the rye will have come again and matured a fair crop of grain, every kernel of which will be utilized. Naturally, the process of change from one pa,ddock to another, will be modified by the conditions, the best results obtaining when, excessive growth is checked by changing from one to another and each one watched to see that it is not eaten too close.

SOME YOUNG INDIAN RAJAS. :A, sketch in the 'November number of St. Nicholas, the beginning of the new volume, will tell Canadian boys and girls, under the title of "His High- ness the Young Raja," about the lives of some of the future rulers of India.

At the time I was attaeked 1 was away from home and had to be brought home on a mattress hi a, spring wagon, and the ngony oi the trip was almost more than 1 could endure. Reaching home, 1 was not able to sit up encl re- mained in bed for 'MX week's. The doc- tor did not help nip and 1 tried it num- ber of medicines recommended by neigh- bors. I paid $5.00 a bottle for one pre- paration, but it was no better than the rest, and I began to think there was 110 cure for me. While buffering this un- told misery Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were reeommended, and my wife got 1110 a eupply. In the course of it few weeks I began to feel better and could get around with the ithl -of a cane. I kept on taking the Pills until all the pain dieappeared and f felt as well as ever I did.
