Care of the Growing Stock
Clemson College, June 27.?Tn<
poultryman's success is determinec
largely by the care and managemen
that he gives his growing stock. I:
the young chicks do not get prope.
attention they will not develop int<
healthy, active, robust adults. Toe
much care can not be given the grow
ing stock, for from these birds com<
the profits, suggests N. R. Mehrof
extension poultry specialist.
The Environment
The right environment is essential
Proper housing facilities shoulc
therefore be provided and l!ic youn|
chicks should not be ove ro?vded.
In order that they r k;y . veloi
into healthy adults, they must be fee
the proper rations, the type of ratior
Henpttdins- uDon the product desired
In feeding to develop the pullets, r<
ration is needed that will put 01
weight gradually and also keep then
in a healthy condition. In feeding
for meat production, it is necessary tc
cofine the birds and f~ ;d fattening
mashes.
Green feed is essential for th(
growing stock. It aids in the iiges
tion o .:ie other feeds and acts as z
laxative and is indespensable in the
ration.
To keep the direct rays of the sur
? !? ;x + ,
irom Tn0 cnicKs, 11 is suvimwc w
provide plenty of shade.
Sanitation in and about the young
stock is absolutely necessary. Foi
this reasor .c is necessary to keep th<
yards free from dead carcasses; t<
spade up the yard and plant rye, vu
or rape; and to allow the birds tc
have a dost tath to keep them free
from lice. e
Feed for the Growing Pullets
The mash recommended below has
given very satisfactory results and
should be fed wherever it is possible
t.n obtain all oi thQ ingredients.
Mash for pullets:
300 pounds of wheat bran.
100 pounds of wheat middlings.
100 pounds of corn meal.
100 pounds of ground oats.
100 pounds of meat scrap.
This mash should be kept before
them all the time. If buttermilk or
sour milk is not fed separately. ::dr
100 pounds of dried buueimi'r
powder.
The scratch grain is composed oi
equal parts of cracked corn and
wheat. It should be fed morning and
night, enough to nearly satisfy theii
appetities.
Feeding milk.?Nothing will stimulate
the appetite more or keep the

than the frequent use of sour skin
milk or buttermilk paste. All the soui
skim milk or clabber that can be obtained
should be used. Buttermilk
in the paste form should be fed at the
late of 5 pounds to 100 birds.'

Scaly-Leg Mites of Chicks
Clemson College, June 27.?TliiJ
mite commonly remains on the feet,
burrowing through the scales and
causing their enlargement. A crust
of loose tissue is formed above the
burrows, and intense itching results.
"When scaly leg is left untreated, thr
feet often become badly distorted

Controlling scaly-leg is by soaking
the legs in warm soapy watf * tc

UNFOLDS A TERRIBLE TALE
3 .
1 Captain Returning From Voyane to the
t Torrid Zone Has Story of Wonderful
Experience.
A terrible tale <> ' the torrid zone
} was unfolded by Cnpt. li. H. Terrible
} the other dav oil the arrival of the
- steamer i-iiis. which plies between
? New York ?;: . Manaois, a port about
l,00u miles up the Amazon river. The
skipper vowed by marine ami other
saints that never had be seen sijrhts
so strange, according to the New V rk
Times.
On a river which empties into
? Amazon, near Manaois, he said In- .

charged with electricity that the bru ^
I bosom of the stream was flooded with
, light and the crew were able to read
their pocket Bibles by the glow, which
was estimated at 4U watts per eel.
1 When seamen brought some of these
1 high-voltaged eels on deck, Captain
i Torrible said, the ship's d "uumos were
* short circuited and ther as the dick)
ens to pay until the eels were disiv
r nected.
But Skipper Torrible hadn't finished.
While the Denis was tied up at the
pier, a buy who was working with t
loaning gang ieu iuio me j.hc
1 luminous eels surged around him, and
? when he was picked up he was dead.
A physician who examined the body
i said that the lad was the victim oi'
j an electric overcharge. Captain Torrible
brought back with him a sundodging
monkey, which prowled only
* at night. He declared that the simian,
r like an owl, was casual and apathetic
- by day, but when the sun went over
) the horizon the monkey had HO-HU
- j glims and was an uitrj.-tively stepper.
> The captain took newspaper men into
> his cabin, where the pet was kept,
and pulled down the shades. The sun
dodger reacted to the gloom by appropriating
and immediately eating a
5 straw kelly recently purchased at coii[
siderable outlay by one of the reporti
ers.
The skipper said that he had purchased
a Brazilian sloth to bring back
to the United States, but the animal
was too lazy to eat and died on the
way here.

REAL HUMORIST OF AMERICA
I In One Writer's Opinion, the Country
Editor Is Entitled to Honor
t;*u 1
VI UIV iktv.
The funniest things whir!; are writ'
ten and printed in thi^> .country are
[ not written by Irvin CobU or George
Ade or King Lardner. They are not
written by the provisional humorist
of the great newspapers.
They are written by the so-called
country editors and notably by soi
called country editors of Ohio and
l Kansas. We hardly think anyone
t with a real sense of humor who reads
. large nuinbers%ot newspapers and
magazines and modern books will dispute
this assertion.
Humor is merely the ability to see
' and react understanding^* to the
mirth-provoking side of human nature,
which is not Uie Jeast ampie 01 its
sides. A humorous paragraph may be
grossly exaggerated in its interpreta.
tion of human nature, but human nature
must be somewhere down near
' the bottom of it or it is a failure.
' This explains why humor is so much
more amusing, so .much more satisfy
ing than wit. Wit needs no human
i nature as *:.< foundation, it may be
<5?rvirUv q lichrnine'-like ulav on mere

Compliment to the Mare.
Talk of automobile drivers bei: z

when they fly up and down the highways
at 40, 50, CO, etc., miles an
hour, drew one day a bit of reminiscence
from Captain Thomas E.
Halls of the United States secret service.
"I remember one time back in a
little Ohio town," said the captain,
"when my father was stopped by i>a
> officer of the law locau.se he w:ix
driving his mare more than 12 mikan
hour."
" 4You was going more than twelve
miles an hour,' said the officer; 'I'll
arrest you for speeding.'r>

said. 'That's a compliment to the

| MEDICINE MAN NOT A FAKE!}
According to English Scientist, He
Deals in the Occult, and With
High Moral Intent.
The medicine man, as known to the
ancients and to the aborigines of
America, Africa and other lands, was
no faker or humbug or quack, according
to Dr. Marrett of the University
of Oxford (England). In a book on
Psychology and Folk-lore he describes
j the Australian buslnnan's incantations
j to drive out of a man's head the crysj
tal that has caused his disease, after
wl^ich J o produces in his hand a piece
of crystal, apparently out of the sufferer's
head.
Neither he nor the patient nor the
patient's friends is deceived; they
all know that he has had the crystal
in his hand or up his sleeve all the
time, and that he has been acting
ritualistically or symbolically throughout
the incantation. The crystal is
a symbol of the mischief within the
; head. What the medicine man really
i does is to set the good magic Influence
! or "nama" within himself to combat
?
| trie Dad "nama" amicung ins paueat.
j He, in fact, deals in the occult, hut he
j does so with high moral Intent, and
j has attained to the power of s<> deaii'ing
only after severe training, in vol vj
ing fasting, isolation and all the other
miseries of a special initiation.
Psychology o* Laughter.
In the psychology ?f laughter on<
traces the development of humor
through its many stages, showing the
fiosff rplation between the appreci
1 atioa of the tribe and the enjoyment
i of the nursery. Children laugh somej
what in the manner of savages, not
! being able, because of their limited
; experience, to see the subtle shades of
i a joke that are only discernible in a
high type of mental development.
Swift's "Gulliver's Travels'* has much
j satire in it which the girl and boy
> luckily cannot fathom; it takes a
l sophisticated mind to understand it
j Kat the adventures among the Lillij
l -ians and Brobdingnagians are class1
ics in the nursery. So it is in the largi
