Management of Chickens.

Cleveland Herald.
To make a suitable nest for setting hens re;
quires little experience and ingenuity. A
large number of nests are lily constructed
they are too small or too large; too deep or
too shallow. 1t would be well to follow ma
ture i'll this as in other things. A little
practice and close observation of the eggs as
they lie in the nest when the setter is off will
enable one to strike the happy medium.
A most excellent food is wasted when fresh
bones are allowed to lie neglected about a
chicken-house. Raw bones OF about all
kinds are greedily devoured by fowls, and
the more marrow or meaty matter adhering
the better. The latter, however, they will
trim off if allowed the opportunity, and
then if the bones are crushed under an old
axe, hammer or sledge, they will pnt every
fragment out of sight i'll hurry. Chickens
bones are eaten as greedily as the rest. A
chicken has no sentiment in such matters.
Those who think that chicken lice are of
small account should try to pick or scrape a
few of them off as they sit on the back of a
so that penknife blade can hardly loosen
them. But a little kerosene will loosen
them.
Fowls can be improved more easily than
can anything else OH the farm, as the chicks
invariably follow the marking and peculiar
tiles of the cocks. 1t will be no use, there
fore, to breed from faYorite hens unless some
care is bestowed in the selection OF the males.
The cocks must always be of pure breed, if
uniformity and desirable results are to be at
tanned, for should the slightest degree OF
mongrel blood be in the cock the yonng stock
will come of all colors, shapes and imperfec-
| tious.
| 1t newly-hatched chikens can sleep for
weeks under hens body in hot weather in a
nest where the atmosphere is anything but
| ambrosial, and thrive under it, why should
we suppose the unfragfant air of hen-house
to be poisonous to old fowls? Or if hen can
live and grow fat on putrid meat, maggots
etc, why should we suppose that the air
which disagrees with us will harm her?
| favor clean hen-houses because am for neat
ness on general principles, but 1 cannot see
that mere ventilation is as important to o
hens health as it is to the human family Of
! even to live stock.
