CHICKENS HULL WALNUTS

Parmer Uses Wheat as Balt to Mak«< Birds Industrious. Shelbyvtlle, Ind., Oct. 26.—A farmer living in Hendricks township, hulled eleven bushels of walnuts, but his manner of hulling them was somewhat expensive. He spread the nuts out in the barn-

yard and ran his large roller over them. He then scattered a bushel of wheat over the nuts and turned his chickens loose. They finished the Job by removing the remainder of the hulls in scratching around for the wheat.
