Norwalk, Conn. ‘ The Storrs Agricultural college has sent the following on“‘Flnishlng Pallets for Winter Production." “Much has been written about holding pullets back from early lay- . ing. leaving the impression that any treatment that retards production will be helpful. The real problem involved is not simply to retard pro- duction. but rather to put the pill- lets in such physical condition that they will be able to lay good-sized eggs and continue reasonably steady production throughout the season. "The first requirement is a large. well-grown frame. This is usually obtained during the growing se,son under any reasonable feeding prac- tices. The second is a. heavy well- You’ll Like These Pumps Of special mention are these new pumps in Patent, Satin and Tan Calfskin Short vamps with gore and pretty buckles $7.00 “D $7.50 MILTON ELWOOD - “The Home of Better Shoes” 122 WASHINGTON STREET, SOUTH NORWALK, CONN. l fleshed body. The pullets must be fed liberally throughout the grow- ing season. . “Mash feeding should be contin- ued. but the amount of beef scrap can be reduced one-half or entirely dropped. it a small amount of milk is used. When beef scrap feeding is discontinued. mineral in some form should be supplied. A very good mineral formula may be made up as follows: Fine salt. 16 lbs.; powdered sulphur. 10 lbs.: calcium carbonate (or ground limestone), 10 lbs.:- bone meal. 60 lbs.; unleached wood ashes. 5 lbs. Four or five (4 or 6) lbs. of this mineral mix- ture should be used in each 100 lbs. of dry mash. “The scratch grain should be fed Schultze’s Saturday Specials Boneless Rib Rbast Lamb Forequarters . 22c lb.

This can usually be accomplished with- out difficuity. However. it would not be wise to limit the amount of mesh in attempting to reach this high proportion of scratch grain consumption. 9 “Many poultrymen are becoming very much interested in the use of whole corn' rather than cracked corn for winter feeding. There seems to be considerable evidence that the loss of corn hearts and corn oil through cracking and held~ ing is a real factor in feeding. Pul- lets do not readily take to whole corn—unless they become accus- tomed to it when they are in the growing stage. it would be advis- able to start with a small amount and gradually increase, so that practically the entire night feeding would be’whole corn during late November. December and January -when the days are shortest and high egg production is most diffi- cult to obtain. "Hopper-feeding of scratch grain is being practiced by many poultry- men for poultry on range with very good results. When the pullets are placed in winter quarters. the 'amount of beef scrap in the mash may be gradually increased; but even then it is not advisable to use the full, amount. It is more im- portant to keep the pulleis in good. flesh than to obtain high egg pro- duction at the start. "The proper time to house puilets in the fall is when they start to lay. This means that any large flock of pullefs should be looked over sev- eral times. and only the mature pullets transferred to winter quara ters. Pullets that are not laying will not mature anywhere nearly as fast in confinement as on range. while the puilets that are ready Jo lay will lay more heavily and lay larger eggs if confined as soon as production starts. It is a mistake to let puliets out at all after they are once placed in winter quarters. _ t‘l’ullets taken from the trees or open roosting houses must be given anabundance of fresh air in their winter quarters. else they are apt to crowd and become overheated, which may lead to colds and sick- .Ailow ample floor space and provide plenty of green food. These two factors seem to have a. direct bearing on canabailsm and similar troubles. ' "Do not under any conditions start using artificial light on pul- ieta as soon as they are housed. Un- less pullets are unusually early hatched. lighting» should not be started until November 1. ' Handling the Old Hens. “As the season advances a'nd cull- ing continues. there is a tendency to double up the old hens so as to make room for the rapidly maturing pullets. Unfortunately hens do not stand moving all this time of year. unless some change in care and management is made to meet and offset the effects of moving. Per- haps the best single practice that can‘be adopted is artificial lighting. Old hens respond very readily to ar- tificj light during September and October. This does notmean that nny~great incraese in production can be obtained. but that a flock giving 50 per cent production when lighted will hold 50 per cent pro- duction for a. considerable time. For this purpose. the light lunch sys- tem of lighting (from nine to ten o'clock in the evening) is decidedly the most effective. "'Hens intended for breeders next season should not be lighted after October 15. So far as the writer can determine. there is no particu- lar disadvantage in the fail lighting of hens that are to be used for breeders—except that the fall pro- duction delays the molt and natur- ally delays the season of hatching egg production in the spring."

Sept. 14. (AP.)-—— A. belief that prohibition in the United States is facing a supreme test. with the final outcome in doubt was expressed last night in a report compiled after months of investiga- tion by the Research and Education Department of the Federal Council if Churches. “No one can say with positivoness what the ultimate outcome of this test will be." said the report. "No ’cocksure optimism is warranted. nor is pessimism or 'defeatism' justified ' by the facts. Much seems to depend upon the development of public opinion in the near future." An "unfavorable and disquieting" trend since 1020 in the social con- sequences of prohibition was seen by the investigators in statistics gathered from many sources, but ‘the reportdeclared no available statistical data could be accepted as conclusive and pointed out that the wholesome effects of prohibition’ are registered in inconspicuous ways which connont be reduced to statis- tical tabulation. ‘ Many. of the claims made by those on both sides of the controversy were discarded as virtually worth- less. Publlcliy material circulated with a view to inhencing public opinion was declared to have been based largely on questionable data. "Prohibition publicity has suffer- ed much." said the report. “from careless and unwarranted inferences the Prohibition Unit in the Treasury Department has been 0. this unfor- tunate kind. On the other hand. much unjust and misleading prop- aganda has been put. out for the purpose of discreditlng prohibition." 0n the question of public senti- ment. the report declared there couid‘be little doubt as to the mood of the country when prohibition was adouted. but that since that time by the Mary A. Bedford Nurses' Home Fund committee: “A CHALLENGE TO NORWAL AND VICINITY" ,1; “The offer of Mr. E. 'f'. Bediord to pay one-half thp total cost of building and furnishing the Nurses‘ Home presents a stirring challenge to every citizen in all the communi- ties served by the Norwalk General hospital. "The Hospital is a growing insti- tuiion and has many other needs besides a nurses' home. but a real- dence and training school for nurses is the paramount need at the pres- ent time. "The use of the old hospital as ‘a home for nurses was meant to be temporary only. and the quarters have become more unfit for use with every year. A strict inspection by the State Nursing Board would have debarred their use altogether. The situation has been character- ized as a disgrace to the communi- imperative necessity. Dual l’urpOsc of Building "Public health requires properly trained nurses. To train ‘nurses there must be a hospital, a resi- dence for nurses. lecture rooms and laboratories. We have a fully equipped hospital. but have never had an adequate residence or pro- per school facilities. The new home is a substantial building which simply meets the minimum requirements of the State Board of Nursing as a residence and school for nurses.

It was said that "there seems to be not the least doubt that the country has accepted with satisfaction the pass- ing of the saloon.” ' Most of the data compiled in the investigation was reserved for fu- ture disclosure. but the section of the report made public last night contained two sets of figures. One summarized the responses to a questionnaire sent out to members of the National Conference of Elo- cial Work. a majority of whom re- ported that conditions in the homes of the poor had improved in various ways under prohibition. that chil- dren’s delinquency was decreasing. and that liquor was less accessible than formerly to minors. but that drinking among young people had increased as compared to pro-pro- hibition times and general respect for law had decreased. The other tabulation related to ~ intemperence as a factor in depend- ency and was summarized in the re- port as showing that although there was a "sharp drop" in such cases about 1920. there has been "very decided and fairly consistent in- creases since that date." although “there is an encouraging number of cities that‘report decreases in 1924." The report. other sections of which will be made public daily over the‘ coming week. was prepar- ed under the direction of the Rev. F. Ernest Johnson. head. of the "Fed- eral Council's Research and 'Educa- tion Department.
