Full Feed For
Chickens Urged
Dvrtag this hot weather, aa all
oat effort should be made to keep ,
chickens on full feed, j
WhyT Or. R. S. Dearstyne of the
State College poultry aeieaee de- ,
pertinent jtay* that a chicken ta .
live, grow, and perform properly,
muit have a constant Intake of
feed. BT
What can the poultryman do
about the lag In appetite of his
chickens during extremely warm
weather? Fresh math ia one im
portant thing. Chickeni eat more
freely of freah mash than that
which accumulates in the hoppers
aver a period of Several days.
Feed goes stale very rapidly in
hot weather. Uader such condi
tions, replenishing the feed daily
should stimulate the appetites of
the birds and aid in a greater and
more uniform consumption of
maah, Dearstyne says. This aida
growth and should give a greater
diatribution of egg production. On
ly enough feed for the day's con
sumption, pins a little extra for
early morning feeding, should be
placed in the hoppers. The stirring
of the mash in the hoppers several
times a day is also a good practice.
Dearstyne reminds poultry men
not to forget ventilation during
hot weather. Open all windows,
doors, and other ventilating facili
ties but watch for sudden weather
changes. Be sure that an ample
supply of water is available. It's a
good idea to even double the water
ing space during the hottest period.

Animals Third In
Injuries On Farm ,
Animal* rank third among the
mum of accidental injuries to
farm people, according to H 11.
Ellia, head of extension agricultur
al engineering Falls and machin
ery top the list.
Increased reliance on artificial
breeding of dairy stock has freed
many fanners from the hazards of
handling bulla on their farms. But
when a bull is kept, regardless of
bow gentle it may appear, substant
ial fencing is absolutely necessary
for safety.
A safekeeper bull pen of the
type developed by Agricultural
Research Service is recommended
for bulls kept for dairy gr beef
stock breeding. 11m pea includes a
?had with stanchion and manger,
and It is ao constructed that the at
tendant can handle and teed the
animal without coming in contact
with it
Beef bulls that run with the herd
have infrequent contact with the
owner. If a bull on the range or in
a pasture must be approached, do
eo while on horseback or in ?
vehicle, If possible. If you must
approach a bull in a pasture on
foot, be sure there is a vehicle
nearby to afford a barrier in case
the bull should charge.
/ Bulls arent the only dangerous
animals Boars also come in this
category. Tusks should be removed
from boars. Even an ordinarily
gentle animal may strike without
warning. Deaths have occurred
