Stimulating Appetite.

IL Is astonishing 10 what extent the
idea prevails that the use OF stlmulants
In the food OF poultry is beneficial.
There are numerous people that al
most constantly dope their fowls with
cayenne pepper. II Is a wonder that
the fowls do not quickly show the
effects OF such unnatural methods on
feeding. A healthy bird has no more
need OF such irritants in its food than
does a healthy person need big doses
OF red pepper Moreover. when a bird
is fed red pepper the person that gives,
Il does not usually consider the great
difference in size between a human.
being and a barnyard fowl With a.
full grown man or woman very small
amount OF cayene pepper in the food
goes long ways. but with bird that
weighs approximately five pounds the
dose should be correspondingly small
II cayenne pepper Is 10 be fed at all
Il should be fed in scientific manner.
but such Is not the usual mode OF
feeding. When the appetite OF the
bird is dull Ii indicates that the diges-
tive system Of the fowl Is out OF con.
dition. Matters cannot be improved
by inducing the bird TO take more
food to be turned into the already
sluggish digestive passages Stimu-
lating the appetite at such time may
result ia increasing the complications
In the digestive tract.

Roasting Closets.

Roasting closets are a new
thing in the poultry world. but
they are doubtless OF value. One
OF the greatest causes OF colds in fowls
has been drafts that have fallen on
the birds when they were sleeping.
Roasting closets can be made Of al.
most any material including canvas
by them the fowls can bo kept free
from drafts, while the air In the poul.
try house Is disable for breathing. We
would like TO hear from readers OF
the Farmers Review that have given
this arrangement a trial. II is worthy
the careful consideration OF our sub
scrlbers that have ycntilators in tho
tops OF their houses. which are as
sumed TO be cause OF some OF the
troubles we have had In the past.

On the farm there is not
great demand for poultry yards
during much OF the year, yet
yards are almost always found
necessary at some time OF year. II
the yards are TO be used much In
summer they should be large ones
that the fowls may have an Abund.
ance OF room for exercise. The large
poultry yard does not become con,
taminated with droppings TO the ex.
tent that n small one does. This is
a great consideration In warm weather
and also In wet weather The ground
In the crowded poultry yard is soon
