no more to make a pound OF gain in
turkeys than in any other kind of live

double the price of beef, pork or NUT

This better method consists in con-
structing the north side and the two
ends of the house without openings.
Then place all openings on the south
side, and instead of using glass for
windows, cover the openings with
heavy canvas or burlap. This will

THE POULTRY HOUSE.
BY II. M. Banner, Colorado AgrieuI-

tural College.
Successful poultry raising and egg
production go hand in hand with good
care and shelter. For profits in the
business, it is as necessary to house
the poultry as it is dairy COWS or
good driving horses. Very small
profits come from those f1ocks that
roost in the trees or perhaps on the
farm implements in an open shed.
Fresh air is necessary, but it must
not be given in such large doses, es-
pecially during the winter months.
The hen that roosts in the open dur
ing the winter uses all her food to
keep her body warm. If the poultry
business is worth doing at all, 1t is
worthy doing right. If it is done right,
the flock must be sheltered.
Kinds of Shelter. = The poultry
house can be successfully constructed
of almost any kind of material, as
lumber, brick, stone, adobe, sod, or
cement. It does not need to be ex-
pensive Many Of our fanciers put
too much money into their buildings
All that is necessary Is that the
houses are warm, properly ventilated
and well lighted. The wall does not
need to be doubled, providing the
single one is tightly constructed. With
the frame house, one thickness of
good matched lumber, such as drop
siding, flooring or ship-lap, is all that
is necessary. 1t is good plan to
build the outside wall of some of the
cheaper materials than the matched
lumber mentioned. such as barn sid
ing with battens, and then lath and
plaster on the inside or carefully line
it with building paper, preferably tar
paper This makes a warm house
which is somewhat more expensive
than the single walled house, but does
not present so good an outside ap-
pearance.
For good, cheap house, one that
presents a good appearance, there is
nothing better than the single wall,
covered with drop siding. This house
is warm enough for almost all west
ern conditions. 1t can be cheaply and
easily made warmer by lining 1t with
heavy tar paper, holding the paper
in place with lath.
Houses may be constructed Of brick
or cement, but usually these materials
are too expensive.
Form Of House.-Make the house
large enough. Make it wide. Too
many houses are now being construct
ed which are entirely too small and
narrow. In the narrow house the
chickens are required to roOst too
close to the windows. The wide house
meets a double requirement: First,
the roosts can be placed away from
the doors and windows; second,
scratching space is provided in the

allow free passage of air in and out,
thus purifying the inside air and at
the same time will not allow a draft
on the hens. This method of ventila-
ton is to be recommended The ven
tilation of houses already constructed
can be greatly improved by removing
part of the sash and covering the open
ing with canvas or burlap.

 The convention is scheduled to close Tuesday. Much is yet to be done but every effort will be made to bring the great gathering to an end at the time planned by the Program Committee.
 The most important matter to occupy the attention of the convention at the morning session was che consideration of the message of the Executive Com mittee which met late Saturday after noon and organized and elected officers. The program for the rest of the morn- ing session called for the following:

However. T. V.
