DESTROYING MITES.
DO Not Let These Robbers of the
Poultry Get the Start of You.

Mites in the poultry house are
great menace to profitable poultry
raising. They do not go well with sue
cessful results in this branch of farm
ing. Getting rid of them, however, is
more easily said than done. The Mich
igan experiment station says the best
way is as follows:
Clean coops perfectly, then apply
thoroughly whitewash, or some other
of the prepared insecticides. Be sure
to fill the cracks and crevices, as these
are the hiding places where mites will
be found hiding during the day. Burn
all the litter and add new. A spray
pump may be used for applying the in
secticide, as it drives the liquid into
the cracks and crevices better than
can be done with a brush. White
wash can be applied with brush,
doing rapid and effective work. Mites
differ from the body lice in that they
suck the blood from the fowls body,
while lice have biting mouth parts and
live on the skin and feathers, causing
intense itching and annoyance. Mites
live on the fowls body at night only,
hiding in the cracks and crevices dur
ing the day. They appear red when
gorged with blood in their bodies.

Layinu Ace of Hens.

According to Thomas l. Mairs of
Pennsylvania, hens over two years of
age are seldom good layers. Leghorns,
Minorcas, etc, are sometimes good
during the third and fourth years, but
generally speaking the Plymouth
Rocks and such fowls are of little OF
no use as layers after their second
year; being much inclined to become
excessively fat. For summer egg pro.
duction the lighter breeds and later
hatched pullets Of the heavier breeds
are best, A hen that has laid well all
winter should not be expected to lay
exceptionally well during the summer.

All Grain Diet.

A diet of all grains is the most ex.
pensive which can lee fed. Green food
will not only reduce the cost of feed,
but will also keep the chickens in
health. At least a third of the winter
ration should consist of green food of
some kind. Litter in the hen house
is of little use if there is nothing in
it to reward the hens for the trouble.
A hen won't scratch for the fun Of
It. A light grain feed at noon and ar
early afternoon feed of cracked corn
will keep them busy and happy most
OF the day.
