How to Locate Heuhou.es.

Poultry houses should not be located
on the north side Of q clump Of ever
green trees or to the north Of buildings
that will shut OF the supply Of sun
shine in the winter time. Sunshine
should be present at all times Of the
day; its salutary effect will be remark
able. In the summer time the fowls
naturally get all the sunshine they
want without our help. but at this time
Of year We must give them our help.
Sunshine will keep the air dry, ana
will, to some extent, neutralixe the
moisture constantly being thrown on
from the lungs of the fowls. A few
good-slzed windows on the south side
will prove Of immense value.-Farm-

Early Plants for the Garden.
Those who have an incubator brooder
may have green house on a small but
effective scale. Dig hole in the ground
large enough to admit the brooder In
some sunny sheltered spot. bank pit
on north side eighteen inches high and
have a tight wood or canvas cover for
use at night and stormy weather. The
brooder is placed in this pit and the
opening to the sun Is closed. Three
inches Of good garden soil is placed in
the brooder. The seeds are planted
in this soil and the proper temperature
maintained by means of the boiler
heated by lamp. A thermometer will
be used to test the heat. One can raise
their early garden plants in this way
with but little expense and less labor
than the old-fashioned method Of
planting seeds in boxes placed In the
kitchen.

SIX.DAY RIDERS USED UP.

The six-day bicycle racers yesterday
were suffering severely from the effects
OF their hard riding. SO severe had been
the test upon their systems. particularly
their nerves, that sleep was an impossi-
biiity for some of them Saturday night,
after the conclusion OF the race. Most OF
them repaired to Turkish bath, where
they remained until yesterday. In COM
parison with the six-day race of last
year the racers OF the past week came
out OF the trial easily.
Mcfarland Is in a much worse condi-
ton than the others, owing TO his fall
Saturday afternoon, when he severely in
JGred his right knee. Ii was giving him
considerable trouble yesterday and he
spent the most of the day in his hotel

that he had slept well all night until IL

accounted for Elkes good condition by
saying that Elkes had not been given any

Fred 3. Mock and Almy Bros. both OF

with the adaptability for single-handed
sailing and for short cruises.
The two boats are practically alike in

The cabin Accommodations are ample, the
Almy boat having a slight advantage In
this respect. with a roomy cabin seven
feet long and four feet head room.
The boat also has a six-foot water-tight
pit which is self bailing. Her total
feet, 1856 square feet In the
mainsail and 95 In the jib. The keel is
TO be constructed OF yellow pine. the

be 20 inches.

materials.
Much interest has already been
aroused. and that eight members OF the

taking one OF the diminutive craft. In a
good indication that the one design class
will be success.
