Mr. Wicker states that these . hulls are more economical than the old style hulls and thinks that they go almost twice as far as the old style hulls at a considerably less cost to begin with. Te secure the best results and to develop the enailsfe odor, wet the huUa thoroughly twelve houra before feeding.' It is essy to do this by wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty 'minutes, if you prefer to food tho buds dry, use only half at much by bulk sa of old style hulls.
