Alp, University Specialist, Poultry Extension of WNU Illinois. Service.' With the seasonal Increase In egg prices and the encouraging outlook for the egg market, renewed Interest is being taken in laying rations by poultrymen whose flocks normally produce some 2,000,000,000 eggs annually. There Are, of course, several good laying rations, but one that has given good result at the University of Illinois College of Agriculture consists of both mash and grain mixtures. The mash is usually made up in lots by mixing together 155 pounds of ground yellow corn, 100 pounds of wheat middlings, 55 pounds of meat scrap, 100 pounds wheat bran, 20 pounds of dried milk, 25 pounds of soybean oil meal, 40 pounds of alfalfa leaf meal and 5 pounds of salt For winter feeding, one pint of cod liver oil is added to each 100 pounds of mash. This is kept before the birds In feed hoppers at all times. The grain mixture, when made up iu 100 pound batches, consists of 40 pounds of corn, 30 pounds of wheat and 30 pounds of oats. This Is hand fed, the chickens being given 12 to 14 pounds for each 100 birds twice daily. Oyster shell, grit and any succulent green feed that may be available are given the birds free choice. When feed prices are going up along with egg prices, there is a temptation for poultrymen to cheapen their feeding mixtures at the expense of some necessary worthwhile Ingredient This is usually a false saving, for a ration Is not necessarily the most economical. It Is doubtful If It would be good judgment on the part of anyone to sacrifice a proved ration simply because it has advanced In price, unless a satisfactory substitute can be found costing less money. 500-poun- d ' low-pric- ed Kinds of Lighting for Use in Poultry Houses While electric .lights are Ideal for use in the poultry house, other forms of lighting such as kerosene, gasoline, gas,. or acetylene may be used with satisfacttoa It Is not necessary to use a strong light to obtain satisfactory results, says E. M. Funk, of the Missouri College of Agriculture. Many poultrymen have used 10 or 15 watt electric lights with very good results. Both mash and grain should be kept n open hoppers so the birds can easily find the feed. Fresh water should also be available. The lights should be located about 6 feet above the floor and arranged so that the feed and .water containers are well lighted. Two lights approximately 15 feet apart and 10 feet from the front of a 30 by 30 poultry house will provide sufficient Illumination. Two lights 10 feet apart should be used In 20 by 20 poultry houses. The lights should be arranged so that the roosts will be Illuminated, otherwise the birds may fail to leave them. New Breed of Poultry Is one of the new The Marsh-Daisbreeds of poultry that are attracting attention among English fanciers. It Is said to be a wonderfully hardy, prog lific breed, especially adapted to marshy districts. It Is reported that these birds are splendid layers and that they continue as such until six or seven years of age. Quite a mixture of breeds was used In their manufacture, the Hamburg, Leghorn, Old English Malay Game, Pit Game and Buttercup all being included. They come In five varieties, Wheaten, Black, Brown, Buff and White.

There Is not a sizable town in the United States in which one cannot hail a taxi, and in many of them charter a cabbie, whose plane ; yet the pompous figure held sway over traffic on boulevards ln the gay nineties, has not been entirely shelved, says the National Geographic society. These 'taximen of another era have Jealously watched as new traffic lights have been Installed, traffic lanes have been painted to keep modern motorists from crushing bumpers and fenders, and streets have been widened and trees sacrificed to make room for more of their rivals; yet they still constitute something of a traffic problem. Within sight of concrete. highways, and less than a hundred miles from Washington, D.

Queen Mary, launched last Septem her, takes her place in the Atlantic steamer service. The schedule now being worked out for the liner will provide for a passage between Cherbourg and New York, at an average speed of 32 knots four knots faster than the fastest crossing ever made. This would bring her near to dirigibles with respect to speed. One hundred and eleven hours Is the present record for the Cherbourg-NeYork passage, made a few weeks ago by the liner Bremen. The actual Atlantic record Is held by the Italian liner Rex, which in August, 1933, covered the 3,181 miles from Gibraltar to New York in 109 hours at an average of 28.92 knots.
