Fl. NJ. Hewitt has the misfortune to have
his henhouse attacked by mites pretty
early in the season, and about three
months ago he removed the roof. so that
the house might be thoroughly aired
summed and washed by the rains. He also
built temporary shelter for the fowls
on the other side of the yard, filled the
old nests with ashes and tried to wean the
chickens away till everything was in read
mess for them. It transpired that an old
hen, who felt the love of locality strong
in her breast, refused to be comforted IN
the new abode. and returned to the old
home, laying her eggs in the ashes which
filled her former nest. 1t was some days
before the perigrinations of this old hen
were discovered, but at length the nest
was broken up and the hen shut up In
solitary confinement, that there might be
no fear of her spreading the mites broa J.
cast among the other fowls. About three
weeks after this Hewitt went in the old
henhouse to Investigate the mite question,
when what was his establishment to hear
a young chicken cheeping. He looked in
all directions, thinking one might have
wandered over from the new fowl yard
a little chicken was just bursting the shell
in the nest among the ashes where the old
hen had laid

the fowls had been in the yard for a Pc
Rod of three weeks. Hewitt was forced 10
