That doesn't mean that eggs are not one of the "best foods, but it does mean that the kind and amount of water a hen drinks is highly im portant, says(C. F. Parrish, ex tension poultryman of State col lege. For this reason he recommends the warming of drinking water for the laying flock during the winter months. "It is well to remember that egg production will' be great ly reduced and Old Man Winter will dip heavily into your egg profits if you permit the drinking fountain to freeze over, or the water to become so cold the birds refuse to drink liberally," Parrish said. There are a number of heated fountains on the market that will operate for "about a week on a quart of kerosene, the specialist stated. However, he said that a home-made device may be utilized if care is taken to make it .fire proof. The only materials: needed to make it are an old tin tub,' sand, a few rough boards, and a kero sene lamp. The tub is inverted on a bed of sand spread one inch deep over the area to be occupied by the de vice. Holes are made in the side of the tub t6 permit the escape of fumes and the entrance of oxygen. A platform is built over the tub and the container of water placed on the platform. The lighted lamp is put under .the tub. Parrish also urged flock owners to protect the hens against cold, wind and snow by covering the cracks in the ends and sides of the laying house with strips of wood or heavy paper. "Then too," i he said, "a six-inch dry litter on the floor makes the house more comfortable for the layers.- Work- able curtains on frames that move up and down in a track over the front of the laying house is also to be commended. These curtains should be held out about two inches from the wire, front by the track so that they will not inter fere with the ventilation;." PEANUTS Home economists in the U. S. department' of agriculture have de veloped a commercially practical way to remove peanut skins with low weight loss and no splitting, and still have a, nut of high quality.
