Plans of House.

assure dry interior. In selecting the
location for a poultry building, always
place it on the high ground, where
there is an under and surface drain
age. If this cannot be, dig out the
ground fill in with broken stone, and
make a cement floor, at least a foot
larger all around than will be the
building thereupon. This cement floor
will serve the double purpose of assur
ing a dry interior and shutting out
vermin. Always cover the cement
floor during the winter months with
six or eight inches of dry earth, and
throw thereupon plenty of dry litter,
either straw, leaves, or light material
that will do for scratching purposes.
Where it is thought practicable to
make use of what is known as the
fresh-air or muslin curtain front to
the windows, it is only necessary to
remove part or all of the sash, and
substitute frames covered with I'M
bleached muslin. The use of the mus
lin curtain is thought to make the in
terror more healthful for the poultry.
The Winslow mail. (Winslow, Ariz.) 1893-1926, 1907-09-07

The continual passing of the air
through the curtain has a tendency
to dry the atmosphere within the
poultry house. While such buildings,
says Country Gentleman, are consid-
erably colder than tight glass fronts,
the interior is apt to be perfectly dry,
and the hooded roost may be made
use of in cold localities to keep the
fowls warm during the frost of winter
weather
AS to a correct ration of feed for
production of eggs during the
months, try dry grain ration,
.-.ird wheat, the rest made up of a
mixture of all kinds of small grain.
If mash food is fed always feed it at
noon. 1t is best when composed of
equal parts, by measure, of cornmeal,
ground oats, bran and middlings, all
mixed with either scalding-hot milk
or water, and allowed to set to cool.
Some animal food of some kind
beef scrap or ground green bone
should always be furnished them in
winter. In addition to this, plenty of
green food of some kind, water and
grit should always be at hand. If fed
this ration, and to this rule, and prop
eriy housed, hens should always fur
nish full egg supply in winter.

BALANCING THE HORSE.
How the Shoeing Must Be Exactly
Done.

A great many people don't know
what a man means when he say he
wants that horse balanced up so that
he can travel" Balancing a horse
means a whole lot. He must be bal
anced as perfectly as pair of mer-
chants scales. If the blacksmith, as
a horseshoer, would take care to get
the inside of the foot the same height
as the outside, and get the shoe the
right length, there is no trouble. Some
smiths, says the Montreal Herald will
put on a shoe one-half inch too short,
and if the animal goes lame he doesn't
know what's the matter. Some horses
will wear a shorter shoe than others
because of the difference in the de-
grees in the shape of the hoof. Some
want a long toe and some a short
one Therefore there will be a diff
ference of 40 to AZ degrees, and on a
short toe you will find that the horse
will stand straighter; that is, the up
per pastern joint will come more di-
rectly over the foot. With long
toe you will find that the upper past
ern joint will drop back more or less.
An easy way to get the length of the
shoe you want is to take square and
place it on the floor. Let the tongue
of the square come to the center of
the pastern joint and then see how
many inches you have from the toe
to the heel. If you follow this rule
you will have fewer lame horses.
Another authority asks these peril
nent questions: Does the horses hoof
fully cover the entire lower border of
the wall, or is it too narrow or fitted
SO full on the inside that it has given
rise to interfering or has the shoe
been nailed on crooked, or has it be-
come loose and shifted? Is it too
short or so wide at the ends of the
branches as not to support the but
tresses of the hoof? Does the shoe
correspond with the form of the hoof?
Are the nails distributed so as to in
terfere as little as possible with the
expansion of the quarters? Are there
too many? Are they too large? These
are points the horse owner should as
certain in order that any faults OBJ
served may be corrected

The Pope and Cardinal Vaughan.

On the occasion of the great Marian
congress in Rome, the pope sum-
moned Father Bernard Vaughan TO
represent the English speaking peo-
nles. The Italians were amazed to
find him so un-English, as they
thought, in his dramatic style. The
story goes (says writer in the New
Oxford weekly paper, VARSITY Life
Illustrated") that one day the pope, IN
the presence of one of his cardinals
mimicked the preachers style, where
upon Rampolla exclaimed: And he
is an Englishman!" NO." replied the
nope, ''he was born on the top OF
Mount Vesuvius, and we sent him to
England to COOL"

GREAT DEMAND FOR EWES.
Higher Prices Being Realized for
Good Stock.

Never in the history Of the sheep
business at Chicago has the demand
for breeding ewes been as strong as
this year and never before were so
many shipped out, says Chicago Live
stock World. Buyers who are not able
to get as many as they wanted here
have gone to the range country and
bought them direct from the ranch
men. Under the pressure of such a
keen demand values have advanced
very nOticeably and stand at a re-
markedly nigh level. That fact is not
a discouraging feature, however, for a
good eve at present prices produces
a lamb equal to her own value and
will yield enough wool to pay for her
keep. On this basis ewes are a good
investment and many people are be.
ginning to recognize it. The fact that
more ewes are being bought by the
farmers in the corn belt does not sig
nifty that there will be a surplus OF
sheep raised, for the more they buy
the more the crop on the range is cut
down. 1t is just a matter of trans,
ferring ownership. With the range
crop being marketed closer than usual
and the demand for mutton increasing
the probabilities are that prices will
be as high next year as they are now.

How One Farmer Feeds.

I feed hay and no straw, using my
straw for bedding and working it into
the manure, saws a correspondent of
Farm and Home. I do not buy any
grain to feed, a. raise what | want.
My grain ration is wheat and oats, and
peas and oats. | have it ground and
1t makes good feed for all kinds of
stock. l feed all my stock, except
working team, two feeds day. 1 feed
turnips first in the morning, then hay;
water at night, then feed meal and
then hay. l have fed this way for two
years and I think my stock do better
than with three feeds. l feed what
hay the cattle will eat up clean, and
four quarts of meal at a feed
