When sitting the hens In order to
keep the lice from bothering them,
good plan is to fill the nest boxes
with wood shavings, preferably those
that have some odor about them. Ce-
dar shavings are excellent and so are
cedar twigs, and the hens will appre-
ciate the nest of such materials. Lice
are great drawback to a hen when
she is on the nest. and many times
they compel the sitter to leave her
nest when she does not desire, and ii
there is anything the poultryman can
do to keep the sitting hen comfortable
he will be amply repaid for II In the
end. The shavings are inexpensive
and are easily destroyed. They do
not pack hard in the boxes and are
quite comfortable for the hen. Try
some OF them when sitting a hen and
see how useful they really are.-Rural

Live stock is the chief element OF
agricultural prosperity. 1t is the foun-
dalton upon which both the preEent
and future profits are established. We
boast OF our great wheat and corn
crops. and we have a reason for so
doing. but II we depend upon them
alone we rob ourselves and our chill
dren by selling on the fertility OF the
soil with each years crop. For many
years the soil will continue to yield
their crops, but they will get poorer
and finally fail unless they are fed
How much better to make your farm
richer instead OF poorer; to get the
benefits OF the increased crops during
your own lifetime and then leave

dren after you have done with IT,
Live stock will do it as nothing else
can.-Kansas Farmer.
