«l Jannary 2 191P THE FLESH EErON ADVANCE Big Trout in the Spray Two and '.iree-qnarfer dozen flgbt' Ing flsb, speckled and glteainlng from the Ice-cold waters of the Spray Klver, near Banff, and none under eight ounces In weight. They !were heavy on the line when they' first took the hook and surged and \ charged and sulked and finally came; In to be landed, and they grew mar-; v«?llou9lv heavier by the tlmi they , had all been caught and then -arrled irour niUea back to the buggy which â- we had left by the falls where the first fish on the string had lain be- neath the great rocks that scorned ; (the green eddle« of tlio roaring river 'and would only tome forth when drawn by stout Bilk and trusty gut. i And the whole trip was not a long one, as fishing goes. We tied our horse at the new bridge below the (falls and left him placidly munching fiats -while we crossed the river and •took to the precariously narrow pack- trail that twisted and climbed and dropped and went higher across and around the great lower ramparts of Mount Rundle.« We dallied at a pro- mising eddy and drew forth three Bab. We cllmljed three hundred feet In a half-mile valk and paused at the eatraa.c9 of a.B^sep, smooth guUy of granite whicli led to u trtun:uavj;if pool of crystal water past wbli'. the foam-flecked current dashed. In Its thousand feet of length tha gully would take from ua the aitlcudlrous advantage of our climb, but we slid down to the tempting water trust- ing to good luck and sU'cng spJUes;' to get us back to the trail. A Black Ant and a Coiniuon Coach- man hit the water slmultaui oiisly. A Xiplgon trout, the product ot trans planted roe. slid up from the hritom of eleven feet of water like a streak lof silvery steel and struck the Ant ' with a vigorous aiixiety that brought â- joy to the angler and angry resist- ance from the Ush. A hungry r\it- . throat sliced a path from his shelter- ling boulder and 'H-.teneO the c- ach man In the bono -f his upper jaw, ' thus pleasing another tlshcrnian who checked his whirring reel and vatch- 'ed the bending rod with gleeful rare. I If you know how the fish lie !â-  the : waters of the mountain paradls'» of Banff Park you need lose liitle time In vain casting. The giiie waits at the upper or lower ends of big pools i sheltered behind rocks; or II con- â- ceals itself behind some protective 1 stone that Jtite Into swift water from I w.o :.a,.,[ ucd tlier.*.

(Contributed by Ontario Department ot Agriculture, Toronto.) A PULLET reqtilrea more feed than a hen, if it is Intended that the pullet produce cggB. A bird to lay well must have a Burplu.s of feed over and abore body maintenance. The excess of feed above body maintenance goes either towards growth, fat, or egg production. Poultry feeds are divided into two classes; one, whole or cracked grain."?, commonly called scratch feel, and the other, ground grains, commonly called mash. Scratch feeds are generally fed night and morning and are scattered in straw in order to induce the birds to scratch or take exercise. A ml.T- ture of two or more kinds of grain usually gives better results than one single grain, largely because Indi- vidual birds' appetites vary from day to day. A good mixture for the win- ter months might contain as much as fifty per cent, pood corn, either whole or cracked; if corn could not be had and the birds were accus- tomed to eating buckwheat, the buckwheat would answer nearly as well, or one could use twenty-five per cent, buckwheat and twenH-flve per cent. corn. To the corn or buckwheat could be added twenty-five per cent. of barley, ten per cent, of wheat screenings, and fifteen per cent, of good oats. It one was obliged to do so, almost any ot the .grains could be fed alone with the exception of oats. There is too much hull or husk on oats to use entirely us a single feed. At present for a mash feed we are using the standard hog feed. If the ground grains are to be fed moist or mixed with cooked house- hold refuse then the mixture should be one that will mix to a crumbly state, but if fed dry in an open hop- per the abL e Is not so important. The mash feed is the one where the animal meals are generally given. The amounts vary from ten to twen- ty per cent, of the mixture. The ani- mal meals used are commonly high grade tankage and beef scrap. Where one has plenty ot skim mUk or buttermilk the other animal feeds are unnecessary. Some use green cut bone; cooked refuse meat, such aa livers', lights, beef heads, etc. A very good mash can be made of one part each by measure of shorts, barley meal, and ground oafs. Corn meal could be used in (he place of the bailey or with it. If one is short or green feed or roots, it would be well to add one part of bran. Per- baps the simplest ma.'^h to feed from an open hopper is rolled or crushed oats. Wo have used this, when the birds had milk to drinU, for a num- ber ot years with excellent results. Laving hens require plenty of greeii feed. Cabbaf-'o is one of the best green feeds. Roots are very good, hut clover leaves should be wilhin reach as well as Ibn roots. Sprouted oats are u.Nod to a largo extent on poultry farms. When (he birds get accustomed to a green and succulent food it is generally wise to give them all they will cat. A pen of fifteen pullets will eat a fair-sired head of cabbage almost every d.ty or one hundred hens will eat a peck of sprouted oats day after day. Grit and siiell should always be wKliin easy accesfl. â€" Prof. W. U. Graham, O. A. College, Guelph, Abortion .Should .Not He Noglectod. Some cases of abortion are the re- sult of injury to the dam due to a nasty fall or bad kick. In su*;h cases the trouble is not likely to spread to other members of the herd. With the majority ot abortion cases, however, the trouble Is duo to an iiiteciious disease which Is very readily spread to other members ot the herd. 'fhe disease apparently 1.^ localiied almost entirely to the titerus. Here uu inflammation is produced which may result In the expulsion ot Ihe foetus, dead or alive, at any period of gestation. In most cases ot inteo- tioiis abortion, however, (he foetus la expelled dead. A frequent complica- tion of such a case is the rolentiou ot the foetal membranes by the dam. If these are not removed after a few hours, death from blood poisoning is almost sure to occur. The bacilli which cause the disease are present in largo numbers in the iluldsi, foetal membranes and foetus. Consetiuontly, every care is necesSlry to prevent these from contaminating anything with which other slock U likely to como in contact, elllier di- rectly or Indirectly. .Ml should bo gathered up carefully and burned or else bulled deeply in uuick Unw. Then the hands and clothes of those in ullendauco should bo thoroughly wash with a disinfectant, and a strong disinfectant used freely all around fhe stall, particularly on th« floor. The dam should be kept In a stall by herself, as there will bo u fluid discharge from the vulva which may last for weeks. Disinfectants should bo freely used In the Stalls, and ihe external gonllalB, llilghB, full and back of uddor should bo vushod dally with a sutls- factory disinfectant solution. For this purpose a two-per cent, solution i of IvBol Is strongly recommended. Strict attention should bo paid by tho Bltondafit to the thorough dls- Infuctlcn of his bunds or oibcr parU of Ills pereon or clolhea after han- dling Ihc patient. Tho dam sliouUl not be bred again until semo weeks after all discharge from the vulva has stopped.â€" ITof. D. II.

"The Advance'* Flesherton Principles of Electric Lighting. In the year ISOO, Volta, a famous Italbin rhy?ici.';t, discovered that if a plate of copper and one ot zinc were placed in weak sulphuric acid, and connected by a wire above the acid, (here was transmitted alont; llie wire a certain amount ot energy, which iransmisitiou wo speak ot as a current of electricity, comparins it to a current ot water As it requires Iiressure or head (i» make water flow, .â- ^o it requires electric pressure to make electricity flow. Tho pressure of the simple cell described above is called a volt, In honor of its dis- coverer. A dynamo generating 32 volts wc ild have a pressure equal to that of 3 2 simple cells. Klectric energy passing through tine wires will heat thorn white hot, hence electricity may bo used for lighting. Current tor this purpose usually has a pressure ot 110 volts, when supplied by light and power companies, but private plants u.sually generate only about S2 volts. All current generated by dynamos is al- ternating when made. I.e., it flows in one direction for halt a revolu- tion of tho dyitamo and Uien in the opposite direction during the other halt, but by fitting the dynamo with a commutator (which means chang- er) these v.-aves ot current may all be sent in the same direction along the distribution lines. It is then called direct curreut or D.C. Now alternating current, or A.O.. may bo used for lighting, just as well as D.C. It the alternations aro very rapid the light is perfectly steady, but If too slow the lights will fluctuate in brightness, and the light is hard on tho eyes. Many light and power companies supply A.C. However, A.C. cannot bo used to cliargo Btorago cells and hence pri- vate plants which usually have stor- age batteries must be of tho IXC. variety. This is also true of lighting systems for automobiles. Onc-horse power will run 30 ordi- nary tungsten lamps, _5acli giving from 23 lo 24 candle-power, while if they are nitrogen filled each lamp will give about 45 c.p., hence it would take only about half us many to give the same light as before. As tho ordinary farm'probably would not re- qulro more than, say, four lights on an average ot two hours per day, tak- ing the whole year round. It is easily Been that tho itmount of power re- quired is very small. The outlay for wiring the buildings varies a great deal with circuniHtanccs, but probably 1 100 would bo u fair average. Where one Is too far from the distribution lines of any existing power plant bo may install a small plant ef his own. Tho original cost ot thpse will run from $1100 to $&00. di'pending on size and type, and the Interest on this auiouia would be the largest fart of the cost ot light for the farm, tho cost of running th«i plant being only a few cents por day. â€" R.
