DUST PARLoR.

them. The great objection, however,
to dust boxes in poultry houses, and
one that has caused breeders good
deal of thought, is the effect that the
constantly stirring dust has on the
birds. There are some authorities who
declare that the coughing and Sneezing
which are frequently mistaken for
roup are really caused by the irritation
of the fine dust particles against the
delicate mucous membranes of the
mouth and throat of the fowl
The Illustration given herewith,
which is taken from Reliable Poultry
Journal, shows an excellent plan
which was originated by common
sense poultryman. This dust parlor"
is built close up against one of the
walls of the poultry house. with which
1t is connected by means of square
opening cut in each wall so that they
come together when the dust parlor is
put in place. The front of the dust
parlor is provided with glass, so that
there is plenty of sunshine, while there
is no trouble in the poultry house
proper from the dust, the small parti-
cles of which are liberated from the
dust parlor by means of small holes
in the fronts and ends.

Study Your Stock.

A writer advises all growers to study
the disposition of their stock. Some
fiocks are wilder than crows; Others as
tame as kittens. We imagine that it is
the disposition of the handler that in
fluences quiet among the poultry, says
the Feather, rather than the disposi-
tion of the fowls themselves. Some
can handle bees without protecting
hands or face, while others are being
continually stung when caring for the
bees incased in flying armor. 1t is
the influence of the disposition of the
handler that quiets the flock of poul-
try, bees or pigeons and makes them
more contented, quiet and easily han

apoubIs MoItinnn PulIsts-

The common occurrence is for pullets
beginning to lay in the late summer or
early fall to lay at least several weeks
and from that to several months, then
quit laying and go through a partial
mott before beginning again, says a
writer in Farm-Poultry. Instances of
old hens molting twice the same season
occur quite frequently. OF the causes
Of these phenomena practically nothing
is known. Their occurrence is so far
from regular that ordinary observa-
tons have not yet suggested probable
causes or rules of occurrence.

SENSIBLE DUST PARLOR.

An Ingenious Plan For Doing Away
With the "cornsr Dust Bath"
II goes without saying that fowls
cannot be successfully kept ir conhne
ment without having access to a dust
bath. Especially is this true in the
colder climates, where fowls are some
times locked up In their houses for
weeks at time. The hens by ''wash-
ing themselves In the dust get rid Of
lice ana all other forms of body ver-
min. In addition to that, 1t is thought
that the irritation of the dust against
the skin is grateful as well as bene-
fetal to the fowl.
In most we'll regulated poultry houses
the dust bath is provided by mailing
boards OF the proper height diagonaily
across one corner OF the pen. This
answers the purpose very well, for the
boards are always made so high that
the birds cannot shake the dust over

Poultry manure. TO keep so that it
