FEATHER-EATlNc ANNOYANCE.
Reasons Which May Cause Hens to
Acquire the Habit.

A great source of annoyance in the
poultry yard is the. habit that birds
sometimes acquire of plucking the
feathers out of one another and eat.
ing them. Sometimes the cork bird
may be seen holding his head down
and standing quietly while the hens
pluck the feathers from his head un-
til it becomes bare and often stream
ing with blood, or, in other instances,
the hens will be noticed picking
feathers from each other until they
are almost naked.
Whether the fowls are intended for
the show pen, for the table purposes,
or for egg production, feather eating
is most unpleasant practice to con-
tend with. One bird will learn this
trick from another, so that if it is
allowed to go on, all the yard of
fowls will speedily acquire it. Cure
is nearly hopeless when it has gone
far. AS rule, feather eaters are
more often found in small, confined
places than when the birds have a
large grass run. Various reasons are
given to account for this troublesome
habit, says the Pacific Coast Farmer
overlooking, or a diet of too stimu-
lated nature; INSULT ciency of ami
NAL food; an inadequate supply of
sulphurous food; thirst; want of &C.
cupation-all these and many others
are among the supposed causes.
Where the poultry in small yards
have been fed with too stimulating a
diet, the blood becomes overheated
and irritation ensues; consequently
the bird picks itself to secure relief,
and the practice travels to the other
fowls. Want of sulphur is a very
usual cause of this bad habit, for
sulphur enters largely into the COM
position of feathers. When they have
a free range, fowls obtain quantity
of sulphur from weeds and other
vegetable food, particularly from the
seeds of plants, also from beetles and
other insects, which they find in their
wanderings; but poultry in confine-
ment are debarred from this.
Another likely inducement to feath-
er eating is want of occupation. When
cooped up in close quarters the birds
have little to do after they have had
their meals They sit huddled up
close together and for amusement
they peck at one another's plumage
until they acquire taste for feath-
ers. AS soon as this disease IS no.
ticed, the offender should be removed
from the others and fed on a cooling
diet, with a good allowance of green
food. When there is feather eating,
it is well to give the fowls some sui
pbur in their food.

THE POULTRY YARD.

In her second year a hen is more
profitable than at any other time, and
it is then they make the best breed
ing birds.
Flat perches are more comfortable
than the round ones. The latter also
cause crooked breast bones IN grow
ing birds.
In building perches in the poultry
house, see that they are far enough
from windows and doors to be out Of
all draughts.
Any farmer who has a large orchard
and does not keep flock of poultry
is wasting valuable space which could
be utilized to advantage.
When face and head swell good
deal and the discharge from the 1os-
trils is profuse fowls have roup, OF in
Auenza. Irregularity of habits is like
" to accompany colds of all kinds.
Whole wheat is better for fowls
than corn. It does not make them so
fat and considering the greater num-
Der of eggs that can be secured by
using it is a more economical feed.
The throat is so tender in colds
that bread and milk, warm mashes
and table scraps are about all that
fowls can swallow. A little ginger or
pepper in the mashes is helpful

COMBS THAT FREEZE.
Not Wise for Farmers in Cold eli.
mates to Keep Hens with Big Combs.

In the more northern sections of
the United States it is a mistake to
breed hens that have thin big combs,
as they often freeze, and this is to
the detriment of the health of the hen
and interferes with her services as an
egg layer. In the milder portions Of
the country the farmer can indulge
in his liking for pretty combs, but
not in the cold north, if the hens are
not to be given more than ordinary
protection. Nor should such fowls be
purchased as a foundation stock.
There are many varieties of fowls
that either have the heads covered
with feathers or have rose comb,
which is less likely to freeze on ac-
count of the blood circulating more
rapidly than it can in the flabby comb.
1t is current opinion that fowls that
have their combs frozen are rendered
for a time unsatisfactory producers
of eggs. A fowl with a frozen comb
is an unsightly object at best, and
since it can be avoided it should be.
If fowls with such combs are kept,
they will have to be watched on the
very cold days and kept in out Of the
wind.

FOWLS WILL SCRATCH.
1t Is the Active Hen Which Fills the
Egg Basket.

The advice is often given to make
the birds scratch by some special
way of feeding. Notwithstanding this
advice, the fowls will scratch of their
own accord, if they have the oppor-
tunity of working in the litter--no
compulsion is necessary; it is their
nature.
A hen never seems so contented as
when hunting among leaves or in lit.
ter for any fine grain that has been
scattered there, and her song of JOY
is sufficient token of her appreciation
of the exercise thus provided.
By the way, experiments and ex-
perience have shown that the active
hen is the one that fills the egg bas-
ket. Don't waste time trying to
make them scratch" Just supply
the litter and the grain and the in
dustrious hen will do the rest-and
you will gather in the eggs.

KEEP THE FLOCK HEALTHY.
Learn How to Keep Disease Out
Rather Than to Treat 1t.

If we were restricted to five words
in prescribing for the diseases of poul-
try we would use Fresh air and the
Ratchet" A large number of the dis
eases of poultry can be traced to the
lack of fresh air. Chickens need moro
fresh air than do the barn yard ami
mails. The moisture that other ami
mails excrete through the kidneys and
the pores of the skin is in them al
Their normal temperature Is much
higher than that of other animals.
Speaking of this, DR.. Wright says:
elm birds, also, the ordinary lungs and
air passages are supplemented by
nine air sacks, communicating with
those organs, and supplying them
with a certain quantity of air in the
intervals of breathing. This extra
oxygenation is connected with the
higher temperature of the body, which
exceeds fever heat in other animals.
These air-sacS expose larger surfaces
to possible disturbances, including
certain microscopical parasites, and
paratus gives more prominence to it's
work in the system, and increase its
liability to disease" If our henhouses
have sufficient fresh air to supply the
birds, if there are no cracks or knot.

there are no poisonous gases from de-
caying vegetable matter or manure,

would be better off dead. A hen that

are in thrifty condition is not profit

Really it is a misfortune to be a sue

sensibly, give them water, grit,
and a comfortable house, and you will
