FEED LAYING HENS IN COLD WEATHER In finding laying hens, only one half to one-third ns much of 1he •ernteh fppil should hp fed In llm morning ns In tlm evening, according to Hip Instructions accompanying n list of rations for laying hens recent ly compiled by T. A. Hltlefihpiider of the poultry husbandry department, Iowa State college. j Up states that flu- mash feeds should bn left Indore the birds at all times. It should he fed in '...If feed lltg botipers. It Inis he< n f.-utul that ninsh moistened with hoi enter or hntMrmilk foil In the middle of tiip morning will Increase the < gg pro duction notlceahly during the winter months. The green feed should lc fed at noon or s'oon after. Sprout.-d oats, steamed alfalfa leaves, cut ba.beets, mangles or a small amount of fre>-b silage will answer the pip-pose, tt.reeii feeds and mash are very o cm ini, ac cording to Me. Ttiitenhender. for the Idghest possible production of eggs during Hie winter months. Some scratch formulae which Mr. Tilttpnbender recoin mends are ns fol lows; 200 pounds of rorn to lot) pounds of oats; or 20!) pound i of corn. 200 pounds of wheat and tit.) pounds of oats. For a mtmb formula the fol lowing Is reeomnn tided : 1 .it pounds brim. 100 pounds mhhllitrrs or stmrls, 100 pounds ground oats. lift pounds ground rorn. 00 pound tankage, a pounds salt, 20 pounds bone meal and 20 pounnds of ground limestone. To tills as much liquid Initlertidlk. sour pkltn milk or paste buttermilk ns the birds v III consume should be mhhd. Forty pounds of dried li’ptenullk ran be substituted for the liquid milk. Cheap, but Ideal Floor for the Poultry House Eight Inches of cinders, gravel or crashed rock covered with about uvo Inches of rich cement will make n chpnp but Ideal tloor for the poultry house. The porous material under the cement will lend to keep the Horn dry. The fillinjl should he tamped until it forms a solid base for the concrete. Hollow tile forms perhaps a more satisfactory base for the cement, and only one-half Inch of ecment Is needed to cover a carefully laid Moor. 1,1 Is more expensive than the other tiller. It should be laid on a layer of sail*] and Iben revered with rich cement to make a smooth surface which Is ifiore easily cleaned. Nebraska Station Gives Ration for Laying Hens The ration for laying hens should have yellow corn as Its basis and also contain mineral, animal protein, and a green feed, ('racked yellow mm as a acral eh feed and sprouted oats for a succulent feed, plus n self fed dry inatsh made up of 130 pounds of corn meal, 130 pounds of shorts, ton pounds of bran, and 100 pounds of meat meal or tankage Is recommended as Hatton No. 1 by (he new Nebraska Station Circular 113. Three other radons are Hated on the back page and the cir cular as n whole deals with principles and methods of feeding for an aver age of above 130 eggs pur ben per year. Try Sprouted Oats There Is nothing'that does more to promote egg production and the gen eral health of the fowls during the winter months than sprouted oats. This Is such a cheap feed and dais are so easily sprouted that It Is sur prising that there should still lie new breeders who do not regularly feed sprouted oats to their birds. A-good sprouter should lie considered a ne cessity on every poultry plant They can he had In many forms ami in an*' size to suit the larg si as well as tin' smallest poultry raiser. If you have never fed sprouted oats, try it.

A truly successful | mil try man regards ftroon food as Important ns niasli, sorjiieli groins or water, atid sees to it that his birds are supplied dally with preen food In some succulent form. Sprouted oats are most desir able where It Is convenient to sprout I hem. The oats should he soaked in warm water for 21 hours, then spread In shallow trays, boxes, or pans, and kept at a temperature of from tirt to So decrees until the stem sprout of the oar Is between one-half and three-quarters of an inch In length. At that stage, the oats carry the greate-t amount of fond value and succulence. It should he remembered dint the green feed Is fed for succu lence and not necessarily for green color. If It is not convenient to sprout cats, any root crop may he substi tuted. Mangels, sugar beets, or raw potatoes, carrots, turnips, beets, any good root crop, fed raw. Is satis factory green feed. When cooked, however, they are still good feed but have lost ihelr value as green feeds. In feeding root crops, the roots should be chopped and fed In troughs or hoppers so that all the nlrds have access to them, says a writer in the Michigan Farmer. Where root crops are not obtainable, squash or pumpkin chopped,- or apples, may prove satisfactory. Alfalfa that has been steamed or soaked, Is better than nothing, hut. at best, a rather poor substitute for a good succulent gem'll feed. The birds should he fed at least once- per day all af the green feed, In some form or other, tiiat they will clean Up.

Pul lets should be culled throughout the growing season and the weaker birds removed. Poultry houses must pro vide ventilation In hot weather and protection front draft and dampness In cold weather.

Fate Of Raleigh’s Lost Colony May Be Revealed Raleigh.—After more ’ than three centuries the mystery that sur rounds the fate of Raleigh’s lost col ony on Roanoke Island may be re vealed in newly discovered documents in the Spanish archioves in Madrid and Seville now being brought to Ameiiea by the Carolina Historical Commission to be made available for the first time for h.storical research. Ten thousand pages of the an cient manuscript reports of Spanish explo-ers and adventures in North America, beginning with a voyage in to North Carolina waters about the time of the disappearance of the Lost Colony and continuing down through the Aaron Burr consp.racy and the negotiation between Spain and Col. John Sevier for the deliver;, been secured. to Spain of the territory now em braced by Tennessee to Spain have Ihcse documentary reports throw ail entirely new light upon many phase3 of the h story of North Car olina, and in the opinion of R. ft. House, Secretary of the Commission, constitute the most important histori cal discovery of th.s generation. For the first time there become available a vast library of information direct ly touching the early history of the : State. It has been lying in vaults ;n j Madrid, Seville and Simancus for centuries. Translation and publication of the' archives will be undertaken as soon as arrangements can be made and adequate funds secured. Shntostat.c j copies of the archives have been re- : ceived here, and the translation, will be undertaken at an early date. This j far only notes of the contents of the ■ documents are available, but they in- I dicate clearly a close connection with i the history of the State, and many j startling new disclosures. First intimations that the Spanish . records might contain data of inter- ! est to the North Carolina historian j came from Dr. William R. Shepherd, professor of Spanish history at Col umbia University. Dr. Shepherd, while examining some of the records j :n Simancus, discovered several that contained references to explorations that extended from Florida into South Carolina. He suggested that the State Historical Commission should inves tigate. Dr. W. W. Pierson, professor' of history at the University of North CaroFna, was in Europe on a leave of absence at the time, and on be half of the Commission he under took a more detailed invest.gabion. He found some documents in Madrid and Seville. Many of them were poorly kept, and some had been de-'j in stroyed Spain had them but <!' r!i:ti'<i to give t interest ive them up There ere thousand.' of items hi the {i!i<i the work was entrusted to Mrs. Irene A.
