DETAILS OF POULTRY HOUSE.

severe weather a canvas can be hung
inside over the wire front. Nests are
arranged in the intervening spaces, IS
inches above floor, around the front
and two ends.
The roosts are the full length Of
the rear and extend six feet from back
wall toward the front. These should
be three feet high and built as in Fig.
2. This allows ample room to clean
underneath and to lift out the
troughs. The roosting poles are on a
level and at each end fitted snugly
into sawed notches. All can be easily
removed for cleaning, as may the bot
toms of the nests Gig. 81, which have
short, movable boards for the floor
of the nests. Drinking cans or troughs
are arranged just under the window;
dust and grit boxes likewise. A house
similarly constructed, with all needful
inside arrangements, can be built for
$25. If lined with light building pa
per it will be nearly frost proof and
easily kept free of vermin. Any kind
Of floor can be made, but 1 prefer
a raised earthen floor. Muck or clay
well packed, then wet thoroughly, will
after drying make floor that can be
swept. Sand should be thrown over
it after cleaning and before litter is

GOOD POULTRY HOUSE.
its Arrangement, Many Think, Is Par
ticularly Well Adapted for
Farm Purposes.

The henhouse here shown has
proved very satisfactory. 1t is 20 feet
long, ten feet wide, seven feet high in
front and four feet in rear. The
scratching shed is eight feet long and
should be on the east end. The win
dow is two by five feet eight inches,
using glass 12 by 16 inches. 1t is ono
foot from floor, which admits sunshine
over most of the floor surface and
does not give too much light on roosts,
which is undesirable. A small door
with slide arrangement is cut beneath
window for fowls to go in and out.
The large door is two by six feet; an
other door of like dimensions should
be cut in east side of house proper to
allow entrance to scratching shed. In

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Beans are good feed because they
are nitrogenous.
Eggs sell better when sent to market
in regular cases.
The laying hen consumes more food
than one not laying.
The early pullets are the profitable
winter egg producers.
Ten hens with one male make about
the proper proportion.
Ten weeks from shell to market is
the time allotted chick.
Keep cabbages hanging in the house
within reach of the fowls.
Ten focks, each consisting of ten
hens, are enough for an acre.
Egg shells ground to powder make
q good addition to the mash.
STEPPED clover with the morning
mash is a great egg producer.
Scatter the grain at noon among lit
ter, so the fowls must exercise.
Corn should not be fed exclusively.
1t should be only night feed in very
cold weather.-Rural World.

MALICIOUS GoSSIpS.
Peace of the Community in
Which They Live.

Habitual gossiPs ought to be
Stunned as well as despised. They
are so dangerous that one is afraid
to accept even their offers of assist
ance in domestic affection lest they
violate the sanctities OF the sick cham
ber. In their presence no one feels
safe. Even though people may never
think of believing what they say, they
are a disturbing element in any COM
munity, and every true person breads
them as the coils of viper, even
though the bite may have been rem
dered harmless. Falsehood is loath-
some, and relief is felt when men
get away from it. 1t is needless to
say that such persons are more open
to criticism than anyone else, and that
the faults and foibles they charge
upon others are the best indicators OF
their own besetting sins. In nine
cases out of ten, they criticize most Sc
verely that fault IN others which is
peculiar to themselves. Uncharitable
remarks about the character and con-
duct of Others, or even about their
dress or taste-words often so unkind
and wounding-m might in 90 cases out
of 100, be applied with more Justice
to the person uttering them than to
those in regard to whom they are ut
tered; and, as a general thing. sen.
sible, observant people see this, and
attach but little importance to their
slander. Why people delight in com.
menting upon the faults of others,
even if they are conspicuously ap.
parent, is a question that can be an.
swered only on the ground of pervert.
ed human nature, which is prone to
hate its neighbor; but such persons
help to add to the sorrows of the
world, and inflict misery upon them.
selves. The difficulty is one that con.
Germs personal character. The mans
own inward spirit rather than the.
foibles of his fellows, is what is to be
corrected.-N. Y. Weekly.
