POINTERS ABOUT RoosTs.

Have the roosts on a level. If some
are higher than others, the top roost
will be ov~ercrowded, inducing restless
ness and quarreling, while the lower
rOOsts will be almost empty. A
smooth, stout board, three inches wide,
is the size I prefer, though small
poles of sassafras are not pleasant
to mites. If poles are used, 1 would
advise getting large ones. Hens do
not need to Irvine their toes around
the roost in a house, as they do when
roosting in trees.
The roosts should be strong and
free Of slivers for two reasons; the
slivers often cause sores on the
chicks feet, and are such fine harbors
for mites. But for ease in removing
and cleansing they should be light in
weight. Through the winter the fowls
remain several hours on the roost, so
it is best to have them as comfort
able as possible. 1t Is much easier to
have smooth, strong roosts of the
proper height than 1t Is to fight mites,
Or to doctor injured feet, so from a
selfish view it is best to use some care
and time in fixing them.
Any lightweight hen wants to roost
high, and can do so without injury to
herself, SO If your flock is lightweight,
have the roosts on the high order.
This will satisfy the hen, and will re-
suit in no trouble. If the hens are
heavy have the roosts very low. Bum
blefoot is caused principally by the
chicks flying down from roosts. With
the heavy ones, If roosts are high, the
force with which they alight bruises
the foot. This everyday bruising will
LUIS the bumblefoot, stone bruise or
felon on the bottom of the foot, and
while it a be cured, it is often a
tedious cure; then, the chicks are no
profit while their feet are sore.-Col-
mans Rural World.

Harry Dowie, president of the Ma
tional Poultry, Butter and Egg Asso-
citation, says: The hen and her prod
uct form today the largest industry In
the United States; n which inter-
ests every man, woman and child in
this great country. 1t Is the regula-
tor, as it were, for other meat prod
ucts; now a daily article of food, and
no longer a luxury. 1t Is the most
profitable of all farm products, and
none has shown SO rapid an improve
ment as this industry in the improve
ment in stock, and in its care, but the
greatest improvement made Is In the
manner in which the stock Is pre-
pared for the market-sanitary kill
ing houses, the selection of stock as
to quality and proper marketing. The
transportation companies have the
most improved refrigerator cars to
secure perfect condition at point OF
destination. This Is the situation to-
day and the increase in this industry
is phenomenal, having increased three
fold in the past ten years.

ROuP REMEDIES.

w. D. Neale gives the following
suggestions in Successful Farming:
First-Fill a baking powder can
two-thirds full of coal oil. Then catch
the sick fowl and dip it's head under
the coal oil, holding it there long
enough for the fowl to draw the oil
into her nostrils and throat. This
has been known to give instant relief.
Second-Take M pound of copper
as, one ounce of sulphuric acid, put
into a gallon jug and fill it with water
very carefully. Give to chickens that
have severe cases Of the roup, and
there will be no more trouble. If the
whole flock is diseased, a mash of
bran might be made with this solution
and given. Make the mash rather
dry, not sloppy. Keep out of reach Of
children, as 1t Is poisonous.
Third-Make a salve of carbolic
acid and vaseline by thoroughly mix
ing a teaspoonful Of carbolic acid into
a ive-cent bottle of vaseline. Grease
the head with this mixture and put a
little in the chickens mouth. This Is
a n~ever-failing remedy If taken In
time. Feed a good poultry food and
grease heads every morning while
chickens are sick.
Fourth-Here Is a remedy by which
a man declares he cured over ninety
five per cent of all his roup chickens,
and he has handled them by the hun

RETURN TO TUBE SYSTEM.
Plant to Be Reinstalled
at Printing Office.

The pneumatic tube system of the gov
eminent printing office is being over
hauled by experts preparatory to being
again placed in commission in the manu-
featuring divisions. 1t is expected that
the services Of number of messengers
will be dispensed with, though they may
be detailed to other duties.
When the new building was erected
some years ago a complete tube system
was installed, reaching every department
of the plant. BY this means it was pos
sible to send copy, jackets, proof sheets
and other packages up TO weight or
five or six pounds to any department with
lightning speed and but little labor.
AS one of the reforms instituted
within the past few years this pneumatic
tube system was torn out. with the ex-
pectation that larger and more power
full delivery would be installed. The dis
carded material was stored in the old
building, and the civil service commission
was called upon for messenger boys to
temporarily do the work formerly han
died automatically.
II has been estimated that the loss to
the government by reason of increased
expense and loss of time through dis
carding the tubes will reach a total OF at
least $4,000 The old material is said
to be in excellent condition and will per-
form valuable service for years.
