McHenry LUNCH COUNTER TO ENCOURAGE LAYERS i Expert Advises Five-Foot Feeders for 100 Hens. By Dr. A. R. Winter, Poultry Department. Ohio State University.--WNU Service. Providing free-lunch counters for birds in the laying house is a good way to get eggs and reduce labor in preparing poultry feed. Each 100 hens need three five-foot feeders to avoid overcrowding while eating and each feeder should have a reel to keep the chickens out of the feed. Poultrymen might well consider keeping the best of the two-year-old hens rather than to sell them. Meat Mrs. Wtn. Justen visited her sister, Mrs. Pe^pr Hoffman, ahd family at Wilmette Saturday.

Very few birds are worth keeping for layers the third year. Poultrymen will be saved money and. trouble if they cull out poorly developed pullets. It costs too much money to feed laying rations to pullets that will not lay eggs until next spring. Good two-year-old hens will make better use of the feed. Laying houses should be repaired, cleaned, and , provisions made for ventilation. Diseases spread rapidly in dirty houses, and colds attack birds which are subjected to drafts or overheating. Vaccinations for fowl pox should be postponed if the pullets are ready to go in the laying house as the treatment is likely to delay production. Pullets which appear healthy and vigorqus do not need treatment for internal parasites. Treatments which kill parasites have at least a temporary detrimental effect upon the birds and production will be delayed. It always is a good practice to remove ailing birds from the flock as soon as they are detected. •Getting back to feeds for the layers, tests show good results when birds are fed mash concentrate and grains in separate self feeders. The concentrate may vary from 24 to 32 per cent of protein; less concentrate is consumed wh^n the protein content is high.

They tell me that we couldn't have picked a better place and we believe it. Truly, all you read about the beauty of the setting is gospel. We picked an elegant day with the mountains covered with snow. Flow ers, I haven't seen so many since last summer in Stephenson's garden. The Iapproach to the stands as well as the inside of the track is a riot of gold marigolds. The stand being blue the combination is terrific. Around the paddocks are beds of deep purple pansies, thousands and thousands of them with their little faces all looking shiny and bright. Throughout the clubhouse and in the corridors are beds of violets and large pink and white begonias with woodwardia ferns forming the background. We thought it was simply lovely and we think that you would agree. The ballet may have been predominately made up of feminine star names, but at the races we only saw the masculine contingent. We rubbed elbows with Edmund Lowe, Walter Connolly, Ramon Novarro, Henry Travers, Al Jolson, Fredric March and Alfred G. Vanderbilt. The clubhouse is really a knockout inside, the very last word in what the well chromiumed clubhouse will wear this season. Our luck was not good and yet it was not bad either, for we only wound up forty cents in the hole for the day. We had some good tips which IF (that big word) we had played we would have come out with a tidy little sum, but, alas and alack, we succumbed to the eternal feminine method of picking the favorites to show and we found out that it does not always pay.

There are other advantages to a dairymah in having the same breed as his neighbor, such as the possibility of exchanging bulls, and of owning good purebred bulls co-operatively. These advantages are obtained by those having grade herds as well as by those with purebreds. Then there is also the opportunity for taking advantage of special breed sales of surplus stock, and, lastly, the advantage of bringing the community together in other endeavors which usually result where there is but one breed. It might be added that these same thoughts are applicable to other kinds of live stock and poultry. F.

MAJtY & OWEN. Mose is a forty pound musky and j when at home his address is Big Rock, Moose Lake, Wisconin. In size he is about ten pounds below championship class but in brains and fighting ability Mose ranks with any musky that the writer ever caught. When we hear a fisherman say that fish have no intelligence, we just smile and think of Mose. In fact, Old Mose knows all the answers. His home is along side a big rock on a gravel bar close to a weed bed. He don't even have to look for his food. He lies in the shadow of the rock and waits for his dinner to come swimming past. When you wish to pay him a visit you row until the dead tree on Musky Island lines up with the lone pine on Eagle cliff. Then you turn the boat toward shore in line with the southwest corner of the icehouse and this course will take you to, if not over, Big Rock. During low water you can see a ripple on the surface of the lake where the rock lies and it has knocked many an outboard motor "Galley West." The first time we ever saw Old M099 we were fishing with John Wentland and "he said, "Want to see a nice musky, Jack? Just look behind you!" "We did and not ten feet away lay Mose. He was headed the same way the boat pointed fanning the^watct with his fins and watching us cast. We cast a plug behind him and reeled in causing the plug to pass' within si* inches of his nose and he just lay therflF and made faces at us. We have cast past the rock time afi ter time and had Old Mose follow the plug right up to the boat Wte've stuck the tip of our rod in the water and made figure eights (8's) close to the boat and watched Mose swim lazily around and watch the plug but he would not strike. Sometimes he winks at you but usually he watches for a minute or two and then slowly swims away. Old Mose has been caught and released. He is too much of a local institution to keep. John Wentland has hooked him twice and he gave the writer a fight we'll never forget. Ijt lasted for forty minutes and our wriit ached for the next three days. We got Mose along side the boat, looked him over, and let him go. We had a couple of good wall-eyes in the boat that promised to be better eating and Old Mose is too good a fighter to kip Just for sports sake. Ask any of the Guide on Moose Lake about Old Mose and they'll tell you story after story about him. Almost every fisherman that passes the rock makes a few casts to see if they can tease him into striking but the last thing we heard, Mose is still there. If you want a real thrill get Charlie Hubbard or John Wentland to guide you to Big Rock and if you succeed in hooking Old Mose you will have more fight on your hands than you ever experienced in your whole fishing career. "That will be one day't! fishing youll never forget! Old Mosf is easy to seat/but hard to catch.

Could the figure on the staircase above symbolize you? Are you standing still--or are you moving upward into the light, reading more about picture-taking, studying your pictures, taking more, and constantly trying to improve? Much of value is being written these days about taking better pictures. Simple, practical handbooks about photography are readily available. Photo magazines contain much useful information. Manufacturers of cameras and film offer dozens of free pamphlets -- not advertising, but practical Instruction booklets. Every camera hobbyist should avail himself of these aids, for wider knowledge helps one make better pictures.
