in Nebraska, must be modified for
places further north where the layers
Of dirt and straw would have to be
thicker.
Our second illustration shows the
pits used for the storage of sugar beets
in Wisconsin. A greater degree of
cold and otherwise adverse conditions
must be provided against. The beets
are placed in deep and wide furrow,
which may be as long as needed. The
pile here shown is six feet wide and
three feet high. Above the beets are
piled eighteen inches Of earth. At V
is shown a piece Of ventilating tile.
These tile are placed in the row every
six feet. This tile is left open while
the beets are sweating, but can be
closed after that process is completed.

WASHING Fowls,

Perhaps it is not known
generally that before exhibit.
ton fowls are thoroughly washed.
One exhibitor tells the writer that he
places his hens in tub of water and
rubs soap into their feathers. He
works this soap and water into the
feathers until they are covered with
the lather. This not only takes away
the dirt, but effectually destroys all
the mites and lice. Some of these
show men go TO the length of using
chamois skins on the birds Every
scale on the legs is examined, and if
found to have dirt under them, the
soap suds is worked under the scales
and the dirt worked out by the use of
small silver of wood. Cleanliness
counts for a great deal in the show
room.

Draw Your Own
Comparisons!

TEXASis the only State in the Union
with room enough for a population
great enough to consume its total pro-
duction of food, fabrics and building
material.
Big enough? Yesl Now here is the
comparison.
Suppose you are an Iowa farmer. Ac-
cording to Government reports the
average value of crops in Texas is So. 90
per acre more than in Iowa; and the
average returns on Texas farms are
twelve per cent greater The average
acreage of Texas farms is 357 acres as
compared with 157 acres in Iowa. With
products yielding better returns with a
minimum amount of labor, mild winters
and pleIty of rom does it not seem to
you that Texas promises much?
The possibilities were never brighter
than now for men seeking to better
their condition. In five years. time
these possibilities will be gone. You
should make the change now while the
prices of farlaing lands are reasonable
and investment opportunities are not
overdone. Why not locate in progress

Of said storage houses by the general
farmers is out of the question. More
over the farmer wants to use these
roots during the winter and cannot
afford to make trip frequently to a
cold storage house.
The men in charge of the sugar beet
factories have found pits to be the
most economical method of storing
beets. In our first cut is shown the
style of pit used in Nebraska. The
cut shows the transverse section of
a long row of beets stored in long
pit. This section represents, as to the
beets, about four feet in width and
height. The layer of dirt over them is
six inches thick. Above the first layer
of beets is layer of straw, and above
that is layer of two inches of dirt.
This last layer is put on only on the
approach of cold weather. AT V there
is a ventilating hole about one foot
in diameter. 1t must be remembered
that this method. though successful

Herewith we show the kind of crate
in use in the Ontario station for the
fattening of fowls. The crate is easily
built and every farmer can construct
one or have it constructed at slight
cost. If the experiment stations find
II profitable to have such helps, sure.
ly the general farmer cannot afford not
to have one. In such crate his birds
can be kept from moving around, and
that is the desirable thing to do when
fowls are being prepared for the mar.
ket. The fatter the fowl the better
the price that can be realized for It.
Fat costs the farmer less than lean
meat and the more of 1t he puts on
his fowls the better. 1t is not de-

understands the case and is willing

that Is in connection with fat; for Ii
is recognized that lean bird is 4
tough bird, If at all mature, and that
fat bird is a tender bird. The pub
lie likes juicy, tender meat and is
willing to pay for fat to be thrown
away, If in that way the tender flesh
can be secured. The shorter the time
Of fattening the tenderer is the flesh
of the bird, according to a popular
belief. The idea may be correct or
not, but the fact remains that the peo-
pie want fat birds, and that this is the
only kind of bird that the farmer
can sell with much profit to himself.
Between now and the New Year there
will be millions of chickens sold from
our farm and many Of them will be
sold off in a habitat condition. That
doesn't pay. Fatten the birds.
Fall Care of Poultry.
At this time of year, when the nights
are much colder than the days, the
poultry will require a good deal more
attention than they required in the
summer when the weather was uni
form. Birds do not get cold if ex'
posed to the air, but If exposed to the
drafts, cold and warm currents OF air
blowing on them alternately. If the
blast is continuously cold the feathers
Of the birds become compacted to pro.
tect the flesh of the birds. But when
warm current blows the feathers
open up and so do the pores of the
skin. Then a'sudden blast of cold air
CT ~ 40, he nd OFF
the surface of the body. Thence come
colds, and often the way Is made clear
for an attack of roup.
Have the poultry house so arranged
that the air can come In only at
single orifice if the ventilation is to
be in that way. A curtain Of cotton
cloth over the orifice will stop the
currents OF air and 1t will pass through
slowly. The birds will not then be
affected. The writer visited the Maine
station a few months ago and found
that the poultry houses are arranged
so that the birds in the day time are
protected from the open air only by
such curtain.
1t might be added, however, that
the sleeping places of the birds are on
the opposite side of the house from the
large window and that there is an.
other curtain, which is let down in
front Of the roosts at night. and this
further protects the birds from pos.
sible drafts. This place is called
roosting closet, and is near the low
roof.
A little extra care now will prevent
the necessity for the doctorlng of poul-
try diseases later on. Also at this
time begin to feed either daily ra-
tion of soft food or chopped fruit. Do
not let the fowls become constipated
by giving them heavy grain ration
after they have been feeding very
largely on green stuff in the garden
and on worms and bugs. Now that
new corn is becoming plentiful the
temptation always exists to feed 1t
to excess 1t is probable that new
corn is harder to digest than old core.
