they are given ordinary good care they
will thrive better than they will if
overfed and "coddled" too much.
In their natural condition in prim-
tive times they were able, no doubt,
to contend successfully with insect enc
mics, because the insects were given
no advantage over them. The chicks
lived and thrived in the open, finding
food as it was prepared by nature;
seeds or berries here, insects, worms,
grubs and other such delicacies there,
and various tidbits to make up var
led diet were found during their wan
derings. They had plenty of exer-
else, never too much food at one time,
and probably slept in different place
every night until they got old enough
to roost in the trees, after which they
chose a limb and made it their perm
anent sleeping place.
Under the artificial conditions of
domestication we furnish a place in
which we insist they sleep every night.
This artificial house is usually a rather
good place for insect enemies to breed
in; and as the chicks are shut in it
every night, the house soon swarms
with the minute pests that suck their
blood and sap their vitality. And
again, the careless poultry keeper feeds
his chicks little more than they can
eat at once, and the remainder lies
exposed to the action of the sun to de-
velop germs which cause disease when
the chicks afterward eat 1t.
Often chicks are shut in a coop that
is so nearly air-tight that the air be-
comes poisonous, and this vitiates the
blood and develops constitutional weak
nesses which later lead to lack of vi
tality, making them improbable as
layers. Chickens need air the same
as any other form of animal life.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-01
DISEASE AND POULTRY

Nearly all diseases are preventab'e.
Fowls that are sound and active. pos
sessing constitutional vigor, If well
cared for, properly housed and fed, will
be practically immune from disease. In
order to obtain the maximum disease
resisting quality, fowls should be as
carefully bred for health as they are
for any desired standard requirement.
Care should also be taken to see that
the breeding stock is healthy, fowls
that are full OF vitality, and that the
progeny is so reared that the desired
qualities are retained.
Housing in tightly closed, poorly ven-
tilated buildings, particularly dusty
ones, is a common factor in rendering
fowls susceptible to colds and roup.
Used-up, bad, shut-in air Is much more
dangerous to health than exposure to
cold air. Fowls "catch cold" in i'll ven-
tilated quarters.
Open-front, open-air houses have
done much to prevent colds and roup.
Long exposure to fall and winter
storms or cold winds is common
cause of trouble; but running out-of-
doors in the cold weather and in cold
wind storms will not prove injurious
as long as the birds are happy and
have comfortable, dry, well-aired quar-
ters to run to. 1t Is only prolonged ex-
posure carried to the point of discom-
fort which causes trouble.
Contaminated drinking water is a
fruitful source of disease and of
spreading contagion. Water should be
supplied in clean receptacles, and the
water should be clean, pure and fresh.
Drinking barnyard seepage or filthy
surface water is very liable to cause
trouble.
Dampness in poultry house and
drafts about the roosts are common

THoRoUGHBREDs PAY BEST

There is no creature on the farm
that shows her care so much as hen.
Neglect her and she at once shows
falling off in egg production. Give her
intelligent attention and she soon be-
gins to show her appreciation by fill
ing the egg basket. I have known
man to buy a flock of hens whose
owner had treated them with syste-
matte neglect and had become discour
aged because they did not lay, put
them in a clean and roomy pen, give
them all they wanted to eat, and in
day or two begin to get eggs. The rea-
son why women succeed with hens bet
ter than men is because they give them
better care.
Now 1 defy any man to take a flock
of mongrels and give them the same
care and attention he would thorough
breds. r = not human nature. Thor
oughbreds appeal to a mans pride. He
has something superior to his neigh
boris. His friends come to see them
and admire them. To have them look
their best he must keep them clean,
so he tides up his house, provides
dust bath, and looks out for their COM
fort in other ways. Then with thor
oughbreds he visits his flock often. He
spends more time with them. If there
is anything out of the way he notices
IL dl OuCCs
1t is to the superior care which has
been given to standard bred fowls that
the great advance in poultry keeping
has been due. Old men tell us that
when they were boys no one ever
thought of getting eggs in winter;
spring and summer were regarded as
the natural seasons. But with arti-
fetal methods of Incubation, which en-
ables a man to get out his chicks at
least a month earlier than he would
otherwise, and with comfortable
houses and intelligent care, getting
winter eggs is not very serious prob
lem.
And the fact that a mans success
with a breed depends largely upon the
interest he takes in the breed, fur
nishes a good basis of selection. That
breed is best for you which you like
best. In all breeds there are strains
that law we'll and strains that do not.
If you can find a good laying strain
in your favorite breed, do not make an
exchange of breeds because some other
fellow is doing better with some other
variety. He does better because he
likes 1t better. If he liked your va
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-01

Considerable opposition and much
ridicule is given in certain papers
against some books that are adver-
tised with glowing titles, as to the
success to be had IN the poultry busi-
ness. These books are gwen good sell
ing titles, such as, 300 Eggs a Year
Per Hen," SEAL Per hen Per Year."
$500 from 50 Hens in Ten Months"
and so on, and by these criticising
papers they are called fakirs.
Now it may be that among the lot
there is occasionally a dishonest one,
and it would not be surprising if there
were some that were practically worth
less and good for nothing. But on the
whole those books represent facts. 1t
would be hardly safe for man de-
liberately to publish a lie about poul
try keeping. 1t is probably true, as
urged, that these books are written
to sell and that the writers expect to
make some money by selling them. I
hope they will.
But it ought to be made clear that
the publication and advertising of
those books is doing an immense
amount of good. If those books rep
resent facts, as evidently they do, those
facts need to be made known. Many
people are getting discouraged with the
poultry business. With the high price
of grain, the frequent failure of the
ordinary way of keeping hens, and the
ignorance of better methods, many
people have begun to question whether
there could be any money in the busi-
ness. But the advent of these books
has given them a new ideal. Being
once assured that there is money in
the business, and that some men are
getting it out they are going at it
with new determination to make sue
cess with their hens, or find out why
And the poultry business, like most
agricultural business, is all the better
the more there is of it.
AS to the matter of ones being self
deceived by reading books that tell of
such remarkable success, there need
not be much fear of that. Except a few
ignorant city folks, there is not one
in ten of people with average common
sense who expect to make any fabulous
success. They know well enough that
they can't do it. But it begins to look
easier to them to make dollar hen
When one is working alone it some
times looks like a big job to make
every hen pay a profit of a dollar But
after reading one of these gilt-edged
books the average man will say to
himself eff these De 0ple can make 50,
or SIS a hen, I guess can make one, or
a little more perhaps, and that will
do me-" and the poultry business looks
good to him for a long time after that
In the rural communities the people
. who are making money on few hens
are not saying much about 1t unless
closely questioned. One woman. who Is
not known as poultry woman but who
has some hens in a couple of small
coops, hardly large enough for man
to get inside of, admitted to me the
other day that she had sold SIT worth
of eggs in the past year. I can dupli-
1Hf4 tn ftrnfI Io
several times over in this community.
but I can find more of the class who
are discouraged with their hens, and
to whom one of those so-called "fakir'
books would be regular god-send.

CARE OF CHICKS

A friend of mine, who raised chick
ems, told me once that the difficulty
with most of the material that was
written in the magazines for the help
of the amateur poultry raiser was that
there was so much repetition. you
say the same things over" Is what
h esaid. He was right. There Is, of
course, precautionary instructions given
each season, and as long as hens eggs
hatch there will be hints on the way
to take care of chickens.
A good many chickens are killed
by misdirected efforts to be kind to
them. They are little and seemingly
weak, to be sure, but this does not sig
Nifty that they are naturally in danger
of destruction from the ordinary events
of chicken life. Nature has endowed
them with the power to live and grow
even under adverse conditions, and II

THE CHICKS FIRST FEED

A very convenient and at the same
time an excellent feed for chicks after
twenty-four hours old, is the regular
commercial chick feeds put up and
extensively advertised each season.
These feeds are a mixture of a large
variety of small seeds. and chicks
thrive splendidly on them. Nothing else
need be fed for the first six or eight
weeks, but it is advisable after about
two weeks to give little wheat at
night, increasing the quantity each
week, thus gradually weaving the
chicks over to the regular system of
feeding.

riety as well he could make a goodC
showing with that.
Men are coming to see that psychol-
ogy, which they formerly desplsed, is
one of the most practical of all stud
les; for if we know the way the hu-
man mind works it will help us in SELL
ing goods, in dealing with men, in
getting along with our wife, even in
keeping hens. To sum 1t up in a sem
tence: Thoroughbreds pay best because
it is human nature to take more interest
in them than in mongrels, and there Is
