At the West Virginia Experiment
Station few years ago a test was
made of board floors versus earth floors
for laying hens. The test commenced
Nov. "a, and continued during the win
ter for a full period of five months. Ii
was rather expected that the board
floor would prove superior to earth
floor, but such was not the case. There
were thirty-six hens of three breeds
on each kind of floor, and the hens on
the earth floor laid nearly 80 per cent
more eggs than those on the board
floor. 1t was found that the earth floor
was warmer during cold weather, and
this alone might cause the difference in
results. The only sickness of any kind
during the test was case of roup in
each lot.

In government bulletin In prevent
ing the infestation of lambs NTH stom-
ly applicable. The ewes may be kept
in a bare lot from which the lambs may
escape to non-infested pasture for graz
ing. The danger of infestation is thus
reduced to a minimum. Again, wher-

ton from stomach worms Is largely
eliminated If the lambs come in the fall
rather than in the spring.
Brief notes are given on the direct
remedies for stomach worms, including

Washington, Oct. 10The4two new

auxiliary fuel, and besides this they
will be the very best in modern nav

Al The navy department a few years

Metcalf yesterday, conducted some
very exhaustive experiments with oil
and oil burners in this city. AS a re-
suit of these experiments, it has been
decided to fit up the monitor Wyom-
ing to burn oil and to install oil
burners on the North Dakota and the
Delaware, which will carry fuel oil
in the compartments between their
double bottoms The ships will have
a coal capacity of about $500 tons
and they will carry about $50 tons
of oil, which is estimated to be equal
to some 900 tons of the best coal.
This fuel will give a steaming rad
ius of approximately 5000 or 900
miles, which means that the ships
could go under moderate speed for
twenty-five days or more ~.

it will be reached and when accom-
