(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Baby chicks should not be fed for from 24 to 36 hours after hatching, and will not suffer If given no feed until the third day. The yolk of tlie egg which Is absorbed by the chick when hatching furnishes all the nour ishment required during that time. After the third day they should be fed four or five times daily for the first week or ten days, but they should be given only what they will eat up clean eneh time. Overfeeding will do more harm than underfeeding. Greater care must be used not to overfeed young chicks that are confined than those that have free range, as leg weakness is apt to result in those confined. The first feed should consist of Johnnycake or bard-boiled eggs mixed with stale-bread crumbs or pinhead oatmeal, using a sufficient amount of the latter to make a dry, crumbly mix ture. These feeds or combinations of feeds may be used with good results for the first week ; then gradually sub stitute for one or two feeds dally a mixture of equal parts of finely cracked wheat, cracked corn, and pin head oatmeal or hulled oats, to which may be added a small quantity of broken rice, millet, rapeseed, and char coal, If obtainable. This mixture makes an ideal ration, say poultry spe cialists In the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. If corn cannot )>e had, cracked kaflr corn, rolled or hulled barley may be substituted. A commercial chick feed containing a variety .if grains may be used instead, if desired, and can be bought from most feed dealers. How to Make Johnnycake. Corn meal. 5 pound*. Infertile eggs (tested out from alttlnfa .or from an-Jnoubator), iL. Baking- soda, l tablaapoonful. Mix with milk to make a atlff batter and bake thoroughly. Note. — When infertile eggs are not available, use a double quantity of bak ing soda and add one-half pound of sifted meat scrap. When the chicks are from 10 to 14 days old a dry-growing mash com posed of the following should be given: 2 parts, by weight, of bran. 2 parts middling-!!. 1 part corn meal. 1-2 part, or 10 per cent, sifted meat scrap. When the chickens are 8 or 10 weeks old, add 1 part of ground oats and In crease the meat scrap to 1 part. This Ready for Its First Meal of Johnny, cake or Hard-Boiled Eflfl- mash may be placed In a hopper, where It will not be wasted, and left before the chicks at all tines. As soon us the chickens are old enough and will eat whole wheat, cracked corn, or other gralUß, the small-sized chick feed may be discon tinued and the larger-sized grains fed instead. In addition to the grain feed, they must be supplied with grit, oyster shell, and charcoal at all times, and the better way Is to place these In a hopper, hanging It In a convenient place where the chicks may help them selves. If chicks are kept in contlne ment, they must be furnished a liberal supply of tender, green feed, like lawn clippings, lettuce leaves, and such other things as may be available. Whenever possible, however, chicks should be given grass range, when they Will supply their own green feed, catch bugs, worms, etc. Chicks that are allowed to run on a grass range are usually strong and thrifty and will grow much more rapidly than those that nre kept In confinement. In addi tion to other feeds, the chickens' growth may be hastened considerably by giving them sour milk to drink. Chickens are very fond of milk In any form and will eat and drink a liberal supply of it. It may be fed either sweet or sour, but the latter Is more desirable. Sour milk will help to keep chickens healthy, and Is one of the best things that can be fed to promote rapid growth and development. When milk Is fed the amount of meat scrap In the mush may be reduced one-half or left out entirely. Any young couple may own a home by starting out right.
