to keep brolers lively and healthy.
Keeping too many fowls in a pen
with an insufficient amount of floor
space is a pitfall to be avoided.
Lice which sap the life blood and
undermine the flock furnish pitfall
into which far too many stumble.
Deal pretty sparingly with red pep

up some other way than by feed ing 1t.
You cannot feed hens that lay color

Here is new plan for killing mites

all congregate in the seam between
the two pieces. Pour kerosene in the
grove formed by the bevel on top, and
you have them dead.
Many who keep poultry overlook the
Importance Of grit. Lack OF grit means
poor digestion and few eggs. A load
of gravel near the chickens home
would improve the health and increase
the egg yield on many a farm. I

Is good enough grinding material. II
