About Paint , The North Dakota experiment sta tion has just issued a valuable bulle tin on the subject of paints and their compositions. Some time since the legislature of North Dakota enacted a law. designed to protect the user of paints against short weights, decep tive labels, etc. This jaw has been pronounced constitutional by the su preme court and is now in. full force. It requires that cans and vessels in which paint is sold shall bear labels showing the percentage of white lead, zinc, oxide, barytes, and calcium car bonate, together with the necessary coloring matter to produce the desired tint; the percentage of water must also be.'stated. The bulletin contains a';report'on a number of different brands of paint found in the market? In some cases cans of "white lead" were found to contain no white lead wateve, being mainly barytes and zinc oxide. The same bulletin also contains a ; discussion of the whole paint question, and is worthy of care ful study by all fortunate enough to secure it. It' is being sent out by the Experiment Station, Fargo, North Da kota. A Well Kent Flock The writer called on a -successful Leghorn breeder a short time ago, and learned his plan of management and feeding, which ; may. interest some of your readers. '"This "man disposes of all his birds when three years old, and while the ' Leghorn is " considered a long lived bird, he demees them past their profitable age when three years old. For the, breeding hens, he se lects the best and heaviest one year old hens. He prefers those ;hav ing necks, bodies and legs of good length and bodies of good dept&fJ This style hen giving better satisfaction as an egg producer than one of the opposite type. This man has used every care to build up a good egg. pro ducing, strain of Leghorns, and as the result has many birds in the lot that lay from ISO to 190 eggs per year. The cockerels are selected from the best of the seasons crop of March and April hatches, and the breeding yards are mated in January so that the birds are in good condition for laying by the time spring trade commences. In the morning, during fall and early winter, the following mixture is given: Four bushels clean sound wheat, four bushels white oats, two bushels corn, four pounds sunflower see. This i.3 mixed up thoroughly and makes up the grain food the year around. There are fifty fowls in a flock and to each lot three quarts of the feed is given scattered in the litter. At neon they have some green stuff and some green cut bone and meat, and at night they are given a mash of 100 pounds blan, 75 pounds corn meal, 100 pounds ground oats, 50 pounds linseed meal, a little charcoal and salt, all they will eat up clean in half an hour.
