DESIGN FOR POULTRY HOUSE.
Building Which Will Accommodate
One Hundred and Fifty Fowls.

The size of the building here rep.
resented is IL feet wide and so feet
long, divided into six separate apart
ments for poultry with a passage
way in the rear of the separate apart
ments. This is called a connected
apartment house, from the fact that
from the hallway in the rear you
could enter each apartment. When
it is desirable so to do, there need not
building may be thrown into one large
room.
The advantages gained from the sep
arate apartment house are several.
First of all, hens do better when not
to exceed 25 or 80 are permitted to
live in each apartment This building,
as represented here, would furnish six
rooms large enough for 25 each of
fowls the size of Plymouth Rocks or
Wyandottes. Thirty Leghorns might
be kept to good advantage in each
apartment. The roosts should all be
constructed on the level from drop
ping board. Underneath the drop
plHS DOdTu may De constructed the
nests, or the nests may be built
against the partition while that di-
vides the apartments. 1t IS always
best to raise the nests from the
ground, and to have the hens enter
them from the rear or behind to lay.
This hides the hen and the eggs away
from those on the floor, and does not
tempt them to fly up and eat the eggs.
The run or area way in front of the
poultry house can be large or small,
according to the ground space that
you have to devote to the same. The
more the better. Fowls always do
the best that have a large space of
yard room to roam over.
The gable may be constructed fash
ioned after either one of the end ele-
vations presented, or, where it is pre-
ferred, the rear wall may be built high
enough so as to have a shed roof from
rear to front the entire width of the
building. In the construction of a
poultry house, great stress should be
laid on having of dry floors and dry
interior. Perfectly dry floors usually

from Lanham, Nd, a5 follows:
Though somewhat averso to pat

Henry Arthur Jones, the noted Eng

dents Of Yale an address on the
drama.
Your American vernacular is pic

plays. But neither varnacular nor any
thing else is of moment if persever-
ance is lacking,

Il said to this man, one New Years

Yes, he answered, I've kept one

MEN STILL LIVE IN CAVES.
Troslodytic Villages Are Found In
Northern Africa.

Grottoes and caverns are used more
or less as shelters by primitive peo-
pies and thus inhabited caves are of
course most frequent in Africa. A con-
siderable number OF natives make
their homes in caves along the south
ern shore of the Strait of Gibraltar
and in some of those caves are found
the polished stones and arrow heads
OF the stone age. Troglodyte villages
are frequent in the Tebessa territory
OF Algeria, one of which, at Djeurf,
250 feet above the gorge of the Wadi
Hallail, is reached by steps cut in the
rock.
The inhabitants of the Tunisian
Island of Galite are cave dwellers,
their habitations being grottoes which
they have dug out of the limestone, or
ancient burial caverns that they have
enlarged The subterranean villages of
Matmata and of Medennie, hewn out
of the rock, are in southern Tunisia.
A Christian monastery built under
ground in the twelfth century still ex-
lists at Goba, Abyssinia. The enor-
nous cavern discovered several years
ago within two hours walk of the port
of Tanga, in German East Africa, con-
tains rooms the roofs of which are
from 120 to $50 feet above the floor
Only a few of these vast chambers
have yet been explored, for the entire
cavern seems to be inhabited by mil
lions of bats. One of these killed
with stick measured nearly five feet
across its extended wings.

When fowls are packed in barrels

them before that time is to increase

When I see a man start to build q

a short time and he will succeed. More
such houses mean more comfort and
more contented citizens.

q person uses the right kind of a
plan, a plan the cost of which will be
well within his means and a plan
that will be reasonably satisfactory
when the house is finished. the
chances of paying for the property and
of soon having a home free of en-.
cumbrance is very much better than
when a more elaborate house is sc.

The little details that go to make
up a satisfactory house must not be
overlooked. A house without a bath

do without hot and cold running wa.

 A more striking example of this cannot be found. perhaps. than in the people Of Maine. where prohibition has been in force for more than forty years. Under prohibition. according to Mir Clinton Howard. who is a reliable authority on the subject:
