 water daily. Second week, feed 

 them on white peas and wheat mixed 

 together. Third week, feed them 

 on Indian corn, and white peas and 

 tares mixed together ; give them 

 this food dried occasionally. Lin- 

 seed tea to drink instead of water 

 the last week of training will im- 

 prove them. Two days' rest is re- 

 quired before a long fly. The night 

 before the appointed time, feed them 

 with one handful of dried peas, two 

 handsful of dried wheat, and fill up 

 with millet and canary seed. On the 

 following morning feed them on 

 dari, millet, canary seed and rice 

 mixed together, and feed them half- 

 an-hour before putting out. Give 

 them canai y seed tea to drink in- 

 stead of water at the same time as 

 they are fed. 



There are many different ways of 

 feeding for long and high-flying.
