It Is not enough that poultry houses
should be constructed as to keep out
the cold in the winter season; they
must also freely admit the heat and
rays of the sun. The direct and bene-
fetal influence of the solar and lumi-
nous rays on animal and vegetable life
is so fully understood, as to require at
our hands no special demonstration
our every day experience teaches MS
that. 1t is enough for us to compare
those " no pass the greater portion of
their lives in the open air and In the
sunshine with those who are secluded
from it, either by business occupation
or obscure dwellings, to notice its effect
on health and life.
1t has been proved that the quanti-
ty of carbonic acid exhaled by an ami
NAL increases with the intensity OF
light, and attains it's loves. limit in
complete Obscurity, and as all animals
in the act of respiration consume Oxy-
gen and exhale carbOnic acid, it will
at once be admitted how necessary it is
that large supply of the former should
he secured, especially so for poultry, rs
will presently be seen when kept con-
fined in houses or small yards. 1t is
to the effect of the SUMS rays we are
indebted for the oxygen we consume,
and unless the supply is equal to the
demand, the nOXiOus effect soon be-
comes visible as well in man rs in an
imal.
But rs the respiration in fowls is eff
fected more completely, extensively
and act sely than in any other class
of similarly constituted animals, their
average temperature is higher. The
extensive develOpm cnt of the respira-
tory process is due to the fact that air
lungs but also to the interior of a great
er or less number of bones, and to a
series of air receptacles which are scat
tered through the different parts OF the
body; the quantity of oxygen there
fore consumed by poultry is greatly in
excess of any other Class of the verte-
brata, and ON the sufficient and COLI
tinuous supply of this their health and
profit depends.
1t will he conceded, then, that free
admission of the calOric rays of the sun
into poultry houses is as essential to
the health and recuperative powers OF
fowls as the food they eat is to tile
sustenance of their bodies-ihey copsti-
tute the incessant and periodically re-
newed source of power and life not
alone in fowls, but III all other animal
life, and to their influence We must at
