Feeding for Winter Eggs 
1 .should like information as to feeding 
jmllets for Winter egg.s. I am now feed¬ 
ing bran middlings and beef scraps, and 
wheat as grain feed. I feed the ma.sh 
wet. Would it be better fed dry? Would 
.5'ou give a balanced' ration to feixl to 
them? rt seems I never get eggs in Win¬ 
ter. The chickens have free range over 
a large farm and get plenty of green fo<xl 
at this time of year, L. t. 
Maryland. 
I know of nothing better than wheat 
for laying pullets, though its high price 
makes the feeding of it rather hazardous 
speculation; for the sake of economy, at 
least, it should be mixed with other and 
cheaper grains. The ma.sh may bo either 
wet or dry. There is no question that dry 
mash feeding, keeping the mixture' of 
ground grains and meat scraps before the 
fowls all the time, has taken precedence 
over other methods with nearly all prac¬ 
tical iwultrymen. There is no objection 
to moistening the mash with skira-milk 
or water, however, if judgment is used 
and one does not object to the labor in¬ 
volved. My personal opinion is that a 
few more egg.s- may be obtained from a 
flock by moist. mash feeding, but it is 
doubtful whether the extra number will 
liay for the increased labor expense, save, 
I>erbaps, in :t very small flock. 
There are many formulas for mashes, 
eiurli gorxl, simple mixture of the 
Ntaiidard feeds, using a large proportion 
of iliM.se high in protein, should be made. 
Meat sorap.s may best be mixed with the 
mash. A good mixture that I have u.sed 
with siitisfactiou consists of equal parts 
by weight of cornmeal, wheat bran, wheat, 
middlings, gluten feed and beef scrap. 
Ground oats, buckwheat middlings, eil- 
nieal and even cotton-seed meal in not 
too large amount may also be fed in the 
dry mash. M. n. o. 
The Surplus Rooster Again 
I have noticed the article written by 
G. I. Grant, Herkimer Co.. N. Y. about 
surplus roosters on page 5)03 and it is 
indeed a “treat.” I began to think that 
there are still miracles (‘xisting in this 
twentieth century. From a practical 
jioint of view I advise anybody wlio is 
interested in poultry to keej) roost(‘rs 
with the hens for breeding time only, 
and then get rid of them any ivay you 
please, unless you wish to keej) them 
for next year’s breeding. If so. keei» thnn 
away from the hens .after the breeding 
period is over in a separate house. 
The roosters are useless after breed¬ 
ing and are harmful for Hvo good rea- 
ons: First, for the production of in¬ 
fertile eggs for the market. You V'ill 
alAvays receive a premium for such eggs. 
Second, the heus ivill do much better 
without the males; in fact, I received 
2.')% more eggs from the hens when I 
took males out t.au with them. This is 
no theory. The miracle that happened 
to the writer from Herkimer Co., N. Y., 
should not iiittuence anyone to follow 
such a suggestion if yon want to get 
rrsuits and good profits from your poul¬ 
try house. HENRY PERLMAN.

Drop in Laying 
AVhy have my heus stopped laying? 
I have 107 last year’s AVhite Leghorn 
pullets and a few old hens. They be¬ 
gan laying the las*t of February. I got 
from 60 to 100 eggs a day until the last 
of June, now I only get 18 to 26. 
New York, D. c. A. 
It is beginning to be the slack season 
in the ixmltry yard; hens are commenc¬ 
ing to moult and the rush to fill the egg 
basket is o5’er. Your hens seem to hai’C 
(lone pretty well and should b*' culled 
down now pretty vigorously if they are 
not to eat up in the next few months 
the profits of the earlier part of the 
season. At the present aiuf prospective 
prices of grain, it will not take non¬ 
layers long to put thi' balance on the 
wrong s-ide of the poultry ledger.

Qualities of gatliered stock continue very

proportion of tlie nearby receipts. Carefully

being used to a larger extent than normal at 
this time of the year, owing to the Irregular

GRAIN. 
The great Interest in the grain market is 
imw centered In corn. Weather has been too 
cool for normal develoiiment, so that large 
quantities of the growing crop are not safe 
from frost. The market is very firm and 
slightly higher. Oats are higher, In sympathy 
with corn. There Is practically nothing to re¬ 
port about wheat, as it Is so thoroughly under 
Government control.
