FOWLS WITHOUT LICE.
Don't Give Vermin a Foothold, and
Your Task Will Be Easy.

Last summer the editor of the
Farmers Review visited the Maine
experiment station. That station has
done a great deal in the way of poul.
try investigation. Conditions there
are of the very best, with the result
that the enterprise is successful. One
of the surprising things found there
Is that there are no lice. Conse.
quently no lice killers have to be
used; the chicks do not have to be
creased after they are out of the
shell; the birds do not have to be fed
enough food to supply both them
selves and the lice, and the perches
do not have to be painted with anti
lice paint. All this expense and all
this labor are saved
1t is wonder that consid ering the
great losses we experience from lice
we do not take more precautions to
entirely rid the poultry houses of
them. A few years ago the Farmers
Review sent out inquiries to many
poultry raisers as to the cause of their
greatest losses. Most of the replies
said that the greatest losses were
due to lice. 1t may be that to lice
are due far greater losses than we
have suspected.
We know very little about how con-
tagious diseases are carried from fowl
to fowl. 1t may be that the lice do
more of this work than any other me-
dium. 1t may be that a louise draws
infected blood from one fowl and
from it infects the next fowl on
which he happens to be-
There is an impression abroad that
there is little poultry disease where
there are no lice and no dirt. II is a
good thing to assume this at any
rate. 1t may be an error, but If it is
the error is on the part of virtue.
Prof. Charles Wood in charge
of the Maine station, was asked by
the writer how he could keep his
fowls free from lice. He replied that
1t was an easy thing to do. He start
ed with perfectly clean pens and
yards. He used iHcubators that had
never been used before, and he put
into those incubators eggs that had
no lice on them. The Chicks hatched
had no lice, and no fowls are pur-
chased and brought onto the farm.
There has to be beginning for the
lice infestation, and the problem is
to prevent the beginning. This is
not difficult thing to do.
If it can be done at an experiment
station where there are 600 laying
hens and thousands of chicks, it GER
tainly can be done on any farm.

Look Us Up

We realize that many concerns are
offering their stock, and it is not al.
ways the most meritorious that meet
with the greatest success. But we eau
tion you as an intelligent investor to
"look well before you leap"
Behind the Geyersite Mfg. Co. is one
of Colorado's greatest merchants: its
stockholders comprise some of the lead
ing statesmen, men who have been or
are now honored with foremost posi-
tions-a U. S. senator, a governor, a
leading u. S. Government official, any
number of professional and business
men, publishers of daily newspapers,
etc. Is a proposition that is good
enough for these people good enough
for you?
Prominent Directorate.
Among the prominent Coloradoans
who interested themselves financially
in this enterprise are Frank A.. Joslin,
a well-known Denver merchant; Hon.
Harper NJ. Orahood, a leading men,
ber of the Colorado bar; Lieutenant
Governor Parks, President DAILY, of the
Capitol Life Insurance Company; f. G..
Boniils, publisher of the Denver Post;
Crawford Hill, publisher of the Denver
Republican; United States Marshal
Bailey, and many others. 1t will thus
be seen that the company has consid-
cradle standing, and that there must
be substantial basis of fact. These
men could not afford to be involved
in anything that was not genuine.
We are Offering the stock to you at
the same price that others are paying
for it, no more, no less. 1t is treasury
stock, non-assessable, only one man is
drawing q salary (the foreman of the
factory, and all the money secured is
being used to increase the sale and
the profits of Geyserite Soap.
A few weeks ago you could have
bought this stock at 25 cents n share.

tackled about the hole and around the
sides to make the nest
A lower shelf is made extending
only part way across the box. AS
shown in the cut when the egg, A,
comes down through the hole in the
bottom of the nest proper, it strikes
on this padding, slides off from the
second shelf and drops into lower
compartment and gradually rolls until
1T reaches the position of the last egg.
Here 1t is handy for the hand-hole
when the gatherer comes for the con-
tents of the nest. This device is said
to work very satisfactorily and pre-
vents the hen from eating her egg
simply because it disappears from her
sight at once.
