The mash mixture is equal parts, corn, bran, and middlings, one half-. part gluten and one half part of fine beef scrap, or blood flour. For old hens, either the percentage of bran is increased in the mash or the hop- per is kept closed except at certain times of the day. The municipal council of the Township of Cais‘tmf met in the town- ship hall on Saturday, Goober 18, at one o'clock. Members all present. Reeve in the chair. The green food consists of roots,- mangels preferred-or sprouted oats. Chopped clover is sometimes steamed and mixed with the mash. THE LAYERS' FEED IS IM- PORTANT: Grit, oyster-shell, char- coal, and dry mash are kept in a hop- per constantly before the flock. Fresh water, and when possible a dish of sour milk is also supplied. In the morning a light feed, and in the evening a full feed, of mixed grain, is given in the litter; at noon, green feed and, if desired, a feed of moist mash. When sour milk is not avail- able green cut bone may be ted alter- nately, with the moist mash, or coarse beet scrap may be supplied â€in the hoppers. ' The mixed grain usually consists ot corn and wheat, equal parts and oats, one half part, but if any other grains are cheaper or more easily obtained, they are used. In cold weather, the proportion of corn is increased, and in hot weather decreased. Communications were read from W. B. Switzer asking an explanation of account ion townline; Dr. Bell account for services as M. H. Officer, late in December 1921; D. W. Nicholl re cutting weeds. Moved, by Mr. Snyder, seconded by Mr. Loun-sbury that the following ac- counts be paid: . Rhinaldo Marshall, for sheep_oit- ten and worried by dogs, $20.00; H. Asher, one sheep inspection, $1.00; Moved by Mr. Lounshurt seconded The principal disadvantage is the waste of feed by the scattering ot it out of the hoppers. This can be largely avoided by the use of proper- ly constructed hoppers or by the closing of the hoppers except at cer- tain regular periods. Dependence need not necessarily be placed on any given feeds. So long as it is borne in mind that the various forms ot food, cereal, vegetable, animal and mineral,'must be supplied, rations may differ in make-up. Farmers should depend largely on home-grown feeds, and when it is necessary to buy those feeds most readily and cheaply the various localities are the ones that should be used. A ration that proved satisfactory last year may be too expensive to use this year or one, that was too expensive last season may be cheapest this. The success- ful poultry keeper will not only vary the rations according to the prices of feeds, but also according to the con- ditions of his flock. A hen that is not laying cannot stand as heavy a ration as one that is producing' heav- ily, neither can a flock of old hens stand as heavy a ration as a flock ot pullets, Moved by Mr. Lounsbury, seconded by Mr. Rahn, that the following road accounts be paid: Emery Killins, work on road divi- sion 32, $13.75; Edgar Bartlett, work on road division 30, $24.00; Wm.

FEEDING THE LAYERS , (Experimental Farms Note) In feeding for eggs the same as for anything else regularity is essential no matter what method is followed. There are many methods that give satisfactory results. What suits one feeder may not suit another, so that it is necessary for individ.ual poultry keepers to decide for themselves just what system of feeding they will adopt. It will be found that best Ire- sults are obtained where a certain amount of the grain fed is ground. This may be ted either l as a moist mash or dry in hoppersjaccording l to teenage si9I1aLptrtytpItasiprthsL.ttttpntta TIre" Hopper Systefn' ï¬vw W For some years the feeding of a dry mash in hoppers has been very popular, especially on large plants "Where labor has to be considered. This system has some advantage and some disadvantages but the former greatly overbalance the latter. CAISTOR COUNCIL George Robertson, Poultry Husbandman It you never celebrated Thanksgiv- ing in a little country church, you do not know what a wonderful oeea- sion a harvest Thanksgiving can be, or how hearty and deep are the senti- ments that people who depend on the kindly fruits of the earth entertain when the year crowns them with tat-. ness. They are beginning to be thankful already all over this much ,blest province of ours, for they do not need to wait for an official sugges- tion that Thanksgivings are due. Last Sunday they were holding their ser- vices, and an account comes to hand of thed ecorations in one, where lov- ing and artistic hands set themselves to work and made a place ot beauty of the plain little sanctuary. They brought evergreens and bright berries from the woods, and for a novelty they made a straw stack in miniature, where it showed to best effect, and then all around was a profusion of all those dear things that testify to the eternal handiwork and the ever- lasting beauty and joy of the world of living things. What a' goodly show- ing it makes to see the orange car- rots and the yellow turnips and the red and brown and yellow onions and the dun-colored potatoes and the bril- liant greens of cabbage and cauli- flower with their creamy hearts, pumpkins and gourds and squashes, melons and cucumbers, peppers and parsnips, radishes and artichokes, sheaves of wheat and oats and barley, cars of ripe and golden corn, with red ones for luck, and a nest of fresh ‘eggs in a no'ok by the pulpit, which was clustered with bunches of native grapes and gleaming with rowan berries. An Ontario Thanksgiving is something to Wonder at, for the 3bounty of the earth and the blessings G the Creator. EH31 The Happy Husbandman. The vicarious Thanksgivings of the city are as nothing Compared with the rejoicings of those who go forth to their toil in the springtime, to their plowing andd harrowing, their sowing and rolling, and all the duties that follow till the summer wanes and the autumn days sum up the, har- vest efforts in the well-stored barns and the well-filled cellars. No man who lives only' in the city can imagine for a moment what hopes and fears fill the hearts of all the coun- tryside as season by season passes and the risks and dangers of drought and flood, ot scorching heat and blighting frost, confront the men of faith and hope who' trust their life and substance to the perilous round This year it comes on fri] Sixth There’s one feature in particular you'll appreciate about Toronto Stable Equipment.

These are days when the greatest and most im- portant decisions have to be fought out in the inner world of the heart and the mind, and if we cannot ap- proach these problems from the arena ot Thanksgiving, with strength. and sense ot duty and ability to solve them, we have little chance of joining in the great Thanksgiving that must greet their ultimate solution. Every day that solves a personal problem maker the aggregrate burden lighter. 'T-o-ro-o-o-o-o-, How can one be thankful for life if one does not live, and what kind of thanks tan be given for life that is squandered in base uses? It would be a mockery to give thanks for life that was spent in evil. The only test of life, as of so much else, is the test of service. When the man, the'com- munity, the nation, is living a life of service, then that life is going to be perpetuated, and will go up as a perpetual offering of thanks while it continues. For service finds infinite ways of improvement and of eleva- tion, and the server grows with his service, and finds a bigger heart in his breast, as he serves, to lift up in thanks day by day. We can all give thanks for the communities in which we dwell, that they are well-ordered, and that-they shelter us from many evils that we might have otherwise to face alone. We have to give thanks for the conveniences that we enjoy, and the means of instruction and im- provement that are about us on every hand.
