HOLDING GRAIN SUPPLY. 
A subject which hit me harder last 
Winter than before, has been a sore spot 
with me for quite awhile, and I now 
waut some information, livst hand if pos¬ 
sible, on the subject, and that is the stor¬ 
ing of grain for use on a poultry farm. 
Fail of 1911 we bought oats tor 39 and 40 
cents per bushel. We "bought cracked corn 
and corn-meal for $1.10 and $1.15 per lOo 
pounds; wheat for 92 cents^ Later we 
paid C >5 cents for oats, $1.05 per 100 for 
corn (sifted cracked), and $1.10 for wheat. 
IIow can I keep these three grains from 
Fall until Spring and Summer? I have a 
large room in which I can put 100 vinegar 
barrels, each holding five bushels (and I 
have the barrels). I can put a screen over 
the top of them. Can I keep wheat and 
oats in them? Any danger of heating? I 
can easily bore a dozen one-inch or 1 Vi- 
inch holes at bottom and put a screen over 
holes to admit air, and keep mice out. 
Would there be much danger from weevil? 
I can get over the corn proposition ; I can 
crib cob corn, purchase a sheller and 
grinder, and grind or crack it myself, as 
we have a large gas engine on the place. 
I like the barrels because being oak no 
rat will gnaw through, and being iron 
hooped can be tightened very readily, and 
besides that, I have them. They can be 
idled on top of the lower row and still 
have an air space. Bran and middlings 
and other feeds which we use are not sub¬ 
ject to such violent changes as wheat, corn 
and oats, and the grower does not get the* 
benefit of these advances either. Can any 
of Tsoi It. N.-Y. folks give mo any infor¬ 
mation? j. n. g. 
New Jersey. 
We have no trouble in storing wheat and 
oats in the Fall for the next Spring and 
Summer use. The most important point 
is to have them perfectly dry when stored. 
Wheat and oats can be kept for an indefi¬ 
nite time if kept in a cool, dry, ventilated 
room. With corn it is otherwise. Corn 
will always heat in the Spring of the 
year. If wo had the space mentioned by 
.1. U. (J., we would not hesitate to build 
bins, allowing about a six-inch space from 
the floor. We would prefer this to tlie 
barrels, as it takes up less room and is 
more convenient, but we see no objection to 
using the barrels in the manner referred to 
and would not hesitate to fill them for our 
own use. minch Bros. 
New Jersey. 
We bought a carload lot of corn, scratch 
feed and chick feed last year, and thought 
we could keep it clean until fed, but 
corn heated, and wo lost nearly one-fourth 
of it. We had to feed it all to hogs. >> e 
would be glad to know ourselves how to 
handle it properly, but do not know. 
New York. boxnie brae. 
We have had no difliculty in securing our 
grain from farmers and at mills at rea¬ 
sonable prices, whenever we need it; have 
had no experience in storing grain, but 
would think wheat and oats would keep all 
right stored in barrels with good ventila¬ 
tion. WESLEY GRINNELL. 
Wayne Co., N. Y. 
It will be feasible for J. R. G. to store 
any grains in large quantities at any time 
of year, with the exception of corn pro¬ 
ducts. Any of the other grains will keep 
indefinitely stored in bulk if in dry con¬ 
dition when stored. We have seen oats, 
and wheat that had been stored for several 
years come out in good condition. We 
are now sprouting oats that have been 
stored for live years for our -poultry and 
they are sprouting well. 
Gilboa, N. Y. the mackey farms. 
If we feed large quantities of grain it is 
no doubt a good plan to watch the crop 
reports. If there is to be a shortage in 
wheat, corn or oats it will pay to buy as 
much as we can pay for and store prop¬ 
erly. I would secure the old crop before 
the new harvest. It is some trouble to keep 
from heating in bulk. You will need to 
watch it during the Fall, but if well sea¬ 
son'd and kept dry the loss will be very 
small. Of course much depends upon the 
storage, the condition of the grain when 
put in the barrels or bins, and how well 
you have solved the rat problem. Many 
poultry keepers do not purchase grain be¬ 
fore they need it because they need the 
money for something else. 
LAMBERTS POULTRY FARM. 
Rhode Island. 
I would consider the vinegar barrels of 
J. R. G. the worst possible receptacles to 
store the different grains he mentions. 
Barrels of any kind are much worse than 
bins and they take up so much room that 
could be used for other purposes. We take 
our oats or wheat direct from the thrash¬ 
ing machine and store in large bins hold¬ 
ing from 50 to 100 bushels, cover them 
with air-slaked lime, if the least damp, 
stick dry pine strips down to the bottom 
of the bin and they will draw off the mois¬ 
ture. No mice or rats will cut the wheat 
or oats covered with air-slaked lime and 
no weevil will get in it. lie of course 
must not buy grain containing weevil (the 
Mediterranean Flout-moth) for if he ever 
gets it in his bins he will have to disin¬ 
fect thoroughly to get rkl of them. We 
feed wheat that is two years old and also 
grind it for bread, in our old country cus¬ 
tom mill, and it is nice, dry and sweet, 
ihe lime of course blows out when run 
through cleaning machinery. 
Maryland. Nathaniel bacon. 
This question has caused us much thought 
and means a whole lot to every poultry- 
man. The price of some feeds rose $9 per 
ton in three mouths last season, and corn 
that was delivered at the feed room in 
February for 70 cents a bushel was later 
over 90 cents on the track. The question 
is now to store it. Corn can be stored 
in the crib all right, and we can store 
oats and barley in open .bins if they are 
lined so that rats and mice cannot gnaw 
into them. Wheat we have kept perfectly 
in tight barrels. Anyone who ean gener¬ 
ate hydro-cyanic acid gas can control the 
weevil all right, and can also keep down 
mice to a large extent. The room required 
will surprise anyone. Our feed room is 
15x22 feet, and an addition built on 10x22 
feet. We have two corncrihs, yet we can 
only store enough to last us a few months.

Cornell Chick Feed. 
Will you give me the system of feed¬ 
ing chicks to maturity as recommended by 
Cornell University? H. I. H. 
New Jersey. 
The following method of feeding chicks 
is taken from a bulletin written by Clara 
Nixon and issued by the Uoultry Depart¬ 
ment of Cornell University. It is available 
to all residents of New York State who ask 
for it, and will doubtless be sent out of 
the State to ns many as the facilities of 
the Department will permit. 
From the first to the fourth day the fol¬ 
lowing mixture may be used: Rolled oats, 
eight parts; bread crumbs, eight parts; 
sifted beef scrap, two parts; bone meal, 
one part. This is moistened with sour 
skim-milk, and fed five times daily. 
Cracked grain mixture should be left be¬ 
fore the chicks in a shallow tray contain¬ 
ing a little dry mash like that given in a 
later feeding. Tills grain mixture is com¬ 
posed of finely cracked wheat, three parts ; 
finely cracked corn, two parts; pin-head 
oat meal (steel-cut oatmeal), one part. Fine 
grit and charcoal mixed with grain, and 
a little finely shredded green food, should 
be scattered in the trays. Plenty of clean 
water should he supplied at all times. 
Subsequent feeding—The following mash 
moistened with skim-milk should be grad¬ 
ually substituted for the first mixture: 
Wheat bran, three parts; cornmeai, three 
parts ; wheat middlings, three parts ; sifted 
beef scrap, three parts; bone meal, one 
part. The moist mash should be fed two 
or three times daily. Cracked grain should 
he given at least twice daily, scattered in 
light litter as soon as the chicks are able 
to find it. Mash in dry condition should 
be kept in shallow trays before the chicks. 
Grit, charcoal, and fine cracked bone should 
be fed in separate trays or hoppers. When 
four weeks old the chicks should be re¬ 
ceiving two meals of mash and three of 
grain. 
After four weeks the number of meals 
should be reduced, first to two of mash and 
two of grain, then to one of mash and 
two of graiu; the grain should be fed 
morning and night and the dry mash should 
he constantly accessible. As soon as the 
chicks will eat larger grains, the wheat 
need not be cracked, hulled oats may be 
used in place of pin-head oatmeal, and the 
corn may be coarsely cracked. When the 
chicks are eight weeks old the grain ration 
may be changed to the following: Large 
cracked corn, three parts; wheat, two 
parts. If it is desired that the chicks 
shall develop slowly, the moist food mav 
he gradually discontinued after three weeks. 
Beef scrap may be fed in the mash up to 
one-fourth by weight, in quantity, or, after 
the chicks have become accustomed to it, 
may be kept constantly before them in hop¬ 
pers. This method of feeding has been 
proven good where ail feeds are to be pur¬ 
chased. Farmers, having certain products 
of their own may modify it to advantage. 
Soured skim-milk and table scraps will 
largely replace beef scrap, particularly if 
clucks are upon free range. Bread moist¬ 
ened with milk is a good food for the first 
day or two. Scalded clover leaves, either 
alone or mixed with other foods are a valu- 
blc addition to the rations, and chicks 
a week old will cat wheat screenings 
Buckwheat, barley and rye should not be 
fed to young chicks. m. b d
