How to Keep Poultry in uoOd Condition
While In Transit.
Shipping poultry to market should be
done in a humane manner. The object
of the illustration is to show how food

than to present q design Of shipping

not only a loss from death on the jour-
ney to market. but also q great loss
from "shrinkage," due to the sufferings
Of the birds from insufficient supply Of
water. A cup is placed at one end Of
the coop but the birds do not know
that the cup is there, and only those
next the cup are supplied. The food is
also thrown on the floor, where 1t Is
trampled under foot in filth. The
coop should be light, and may be made

1HE FLAVOR OF EGGS.
It Depends Very Much en the Food Given

to the Poultry.
The flavor of eggs depends very much
on the kind Of food given to the poui-
try. When hens are fed largely or al
most exclusively on milk the yolk is
lighter in color. the white has milky
look, and the whole egg is watery and
less firm in texture than those laid by
granted hens The taste of the egg Is
also affected, being insipid and unsatis-
factory when boiled or poached and
less fine for ordinary cooking purposes
ever. There is no use in saying that
the idea of the quality OF the eggs be-
ing influenced by the food of the hens
is mere within, since 1t is well.known
fact that the eggs Of fowls kept in the
ncighborhood Of the sea and fed al
most entirely on fish-talxen as they
come, embracing the strong and oily,

regions sell for less in the market in
some instances than those co ming from
districts further inland. The reasons
why hens fed ON ''slops" of milk, etc,
are able 70 give no better eggs to their
owners els because the "old, old
story" is repeated in their case You

servants, but you give them no straw

scraps from the house are obtainable,
and as much green vegetable food us

quently fall o prey to cats, skunks or
other animals. Moreover, running
thus together, big and little, the feed
ing time exhibits q constant conten-
ton and mastery of the stronger over
the weaker, which results In impaired
growth.
The better plan is to raise no more
chickens than can be accommodated In
yards of ample size-a yard for each
brood Of IS or 20 chicks and let each
brood have q house to itself OF size to
accommodate the chicks until they are
well grown and ready to be sold or
transferred to the regular poultry
house. Thus one always knows where
his chickens are. He knows that enc
mics cannot we'll reach them, and that
the work needed to care for them has
been reduced to o minimum.
The illustration shows plan for
such chicken yards and houses that !
think will commend itself to the
chicken raiser The yards are side by
side, and the houses In row Of any
length desired. These houses are ar
ranged to afford the greatest conven-
fence. They are some w feet square
and about feet in height, with a sin
gle roof. all the boards being tongued
and grooved. The entire back is u
door, which gives convenient access to
the interior. and within this is a Stat
door for use when the weather is warm.
Such coops can be thoroughly and read
lily cleaned out with shovel, and dry
loan thrown in, person with shovel
and wheelbarrow being able to go
the rounds OF q large number of
coops in very few moments. Shade,
either natural or artificial, should be
provided for these chicken yards 1t is
often feasible to locate them in an or
chard, with benefit both to the chickens
and to the trees. In any event do not
make the mistake of having the yards
too small. Make them as large as pos

When hogs are ready to take on fat
for market give them all they will eat
up clean, but never enough for lot TO
be left over. You can soon find out
how much they will eat up clean, and
be able to regulate their rations ac-
cordingly. No ration can be made
that may by any means be considered
applicable under all conditions lencr-
ally the rations must be determined
with each lot OF hogs on every farm.
and the careful breeder should know
the amount that should be given with
more certainty than anyone else. But
whether hogs are fed in clAe pen or
in good pasture, they shodid be fed
literally. and just enough to favor
rapid development Of carcass through
