How TO FArrEN CHIrEEEs-It is hopeless
to attempt to laten chickens while they are
at liberty. They must be pat in aproper coop;
and this like most other poultry opprrtcnanccs
need not Ue expensive. To iattcn twelve
fowls, coop mast he three feet long, eighteen
inches high, and eighteen inches deep, made
entirely Of bars. No part Of it soI-nether
top, side bottom Discretion must be used ac.
cording to the sizes Of the chickens, put up
They DO not want room indeed, the closer
they arc the better provided they can all stand
up at the same time. Care must be taken to
pu. up such as we have been accustomed to be
together, or they will fight. If one is quarrel
some, il is better to remove it at once as like
other bad examples, it soon finds imitators A
diseased chicken should not be put up.
The food shouid be ground oats, and may
either be put On a troguh or on fiat board
rnun8g along the front of the coop 1t may be
mixed with water or milk :; the latter is better
1t should be well slaked forming pulp as
loose as can be, provided it does not run off
the board They must be we'll fed three or
four times a day-the first time as soon after
daybreak as possible or convenient, and then
at intervals of four hours Each meal should
be as much and no more than they can eat up
clean. When they have done feeding, the
board should be wiped, and some gravel may
be spread. 1t causes them them to feed and
thrive.
After Q fortnight Of this treatment you will
have good fat fowls If, however, there are
but four to six to be fattened, they must not
have so much room as though there were
twelve. Nothing is easier than to allow them
the proper space it is only necessary to have
two or three pieces Of wood to pass between
the bars, and form partition. This may also
serve when fowls are put up at different
degrees Of fatnesS., This requires attention, or
fowls will not keep fat and healthy. As soon
as the fewI is sufficiently fattcned it mDst be
killed, otherwise it will still get fat, but it will
lose flesh. If fowls are intended for the market
of course they are or may be all fattened at
once but if for home consumption, it is better
to put them up at such intervals as will suit
the time when they are required for the table
When the time arrives for killing, whether
they are meant for market or otherwise, they
shonld be tasted, without food or water, fol
twelve or fifteen hours This enables them tC
be kept some time after being killed, even il
hot weather.-Londoa Cottage Gardener.
