How to Get Eggs in "Winter.
The Progressive Farmer.
Having good success with hens
laying daring the winter months,
I thought probably an outline of
my plan ot feeding might be of
help to soipe of your readers. Getting
eggs in wiuter depends upon
feed and warm quarters to sleep
in, and not so much on the breed
as some have it. Any good breed
will do. Select good, strong,
well developed pullets that wore
hatched not latef than April,
whatever number you wi?h to
keep; but do not keep over twenty-five
iu'one house.
'thk^bkstjcind'of ukn housk.^
A house ten by six feet is a
good size for that many, built
three aides close and the front
facing the sout|). One 1x12
plank at bottom,- three feet wire
netting next, and then two lxl 2's
at the top make a nice front lor
the house. Arrange the house
inside so you can have a scratching
peu under the perches. This
ia easily done, by having a shell
just under the perches to catch
the dropping; it will also be a
great convenience in cleaning
out, which must be done to in
_ mi i? i is
sure success. me noor snouiu |
be tilled in so it will be dry eveu
during rainy weather. Keep
the scratching.,peu littered about
one toot deep with straw or other
litter, leavos beiug excellent.
Feed all the grain in the litter
and cover it up Avoid feeding
too much corn, as there is danger
of getting the layers ovor-iat.
especially where older stock are
kept, thi? showing one of the
advantages ot keeping pullets
which are not apt to get over-fat.
Also, not having to go through
the molt, they get in good shape
for laying in winter.
THK OKAIN KKICI).
Wheat and oats are tine for the
laying lions; and where one can
not get wheat, one can always
get wheat bran and shorts, which
make a splendid substitute, equal
parts bran and shorts w i!h a little
cottonseed meal making an
excellent mash. Mix Willi a little
water, not wot or doughy,
k..i ?;. ~i- ...

This also can be thrown on
top ot the litter in the scratch
ing pen, and the birds will always
scratch toi whut they get
in the straw. He careful not to
feed more mash than will bo
eaten up at once, as it will be
liable to sour. . ^ _

This in the morning, with
oats buried in t'.e litter. and a
pood feci o( < orn at night. one
hour before loosiing time, will
serve for the grain ration: and the

if y grain hat may noi have

crain must be supplemented
with animal food of some soit
and green te^d. For ar.un?l foo 1,
one pou id of fresh green cut
bone* per da; f >? twenty Ihti-is

be ol)! ..ned. rabbit or lean meat j
of any sort will do. .Milk ai-*o|
is very good, which can be mix- j
cd in the m i ' and also be given i
as a drink. For green teed, al

A BALANCED RATION NBCK89ARY.
Do not toed corn alone, and
THE LANC
expect egga in winter. You of ]
ten hear people say, "My hens
lay in winter and 1 feed nothing
but com"; but if you look luither,you
will finu their liens have
a nice grove w,in plenty 01 aeau j
leave-' to scratch in, where they \
can find bugs and worms even i
in the winter, also some green {
feed somewhere around. Keep |
your hens scratching for whaf
they eat. Such aie the hens i
that lay iif winter, not the ones ]
that sit at the gates or doorstep <
looking for the next leed of corn <
to be thrown out ou the ground. |
Try this kind of feeding one
season, and see what results you <
will get. Start early in the ]
fall, by separating the pullets f
you are to keep for layers; and j
feeding them plenty ot muscle- '
tormiug roods and not too much 1
corn ; and you will have plenty } ]
ot eirgs in winter. I have thirty
pullets that were hatched the (
tenth day of last May, and six |
of them have already (by the (
middle of February! hatched off (
seventy chicks ; and eight more |
of them are sitting now. Those ;
puliets were fed as above directed
Do not forget to see. that ]
there is plenty of grit that theM
hens can get as wanted. IJens j
will naturally lav in spring, ]
when Nature furnishes thetn with i
green and animal feed.
