rooms are as large as the average

deal larger than some. Years ago
rooms were larger, but that was when
building materials and labor we're very
much cheaper than they are now. A
builder can almost tell the age Of a
house by the size Of the rooms But
there are other contributing causes;
one is that we understand building
better and 1t Is not necessary TO build
so large to get the same amount OF
comfort. AS one lady expressed it, Il

them are more than four feet up.

Pest Can Only Sc Kept Out by clean
llness and Spraying the Roosis.

Am interesting bulletin has been IS
sued by the state entomologist Of
Minnesota In which the author dis
cusses the mite as found IN the poultry
house, The following extract from
Entomolglst Washburn's bulletin viii
interest our readers.
These nocturnal blood suckers, not
true lice, nor even insects, since they
belong to the class Arachnida, are
found during the daytime on the under
side Of the roosts and elsewhere in a
neglected henhouse.
THE mites, just visible to the naked
eye, have eight legs when adult, and
are whitish, brownlsh or red. depend
ing somewhat upon the time elapslng
since the last meal.
"They breed In nests, In hen manure
and In cracks and crevices In the dirt
Of neglected henhouses.
"Roostlng fowls are attacked at
night, and II these parasites are very
abundant serious results follow In or.
dinary numbers even, they prevent
fowls from sleeping. Sitting hens, as
well known. are sometimes forced to
abandon their nests because of the
presence Of these pests.
Cleanliness is all-important. II
roosts rest in sockets, from which
they can be lifted, allowing the YER
min to gather in those places to be
killed, strong point Is gained.
THE writer has been in the habit
Of spraying the roosts with strong
kerosene emulsion taking particular
pains to drench the under side Of the
same and all cracks and crevices In
the interior Of the house. Kerosene
alone will accomplish the same re.
suits
This treatment was followed by a
thorough whitewashing These pre-
cautions and the removal OF all drop
pings should be resorted to frequent
ly to insure exemption from this pest
"On account Of these mites it Is a
bad plan to keep fowls in close prox
unity to other stock; hens, for in
stance, should not be kept In the same
building as horses, nor should the
hen house be built against the barn
for the same reason.
Nests intended for sitting hens
should be most carefully prepared II
such way as to discourage the pres
ence Of this parasite.
"The entomologist has used ashei
or a mixture Of lime and ashes as 8
basis upon which to place hay Of
straw for the nest and has scattered
insect powder among the eggs and lit
