IN THE POULTRY HOUSE.

The male is half the pen--it pays to
get the best you can buy.
Pullets are the best layers. Old
hens bring the egg record down. But
Of course there are always exceptions.

lice.
Poultry is one of the best-paying
things on the farm when properly
cared for and brings In something

If one wants to breed from 20 to rs
hens, two males should be used on al
ternate days. While one is running
with the hens the other should be
cooped and fed extra.
One of the most difficult things for
beginner in poultry raising to learn
is to Gull closely, and there are others
besides the beginners that need to
practise this necessary thing.
A film of kerosene over the drink

ventive and no possible harm In 1t.
The hens will lay better and do bet
ter every way If no males are al
lowed to run with them, and the eggs
will not become stale anywhere near
so quick as when males are kept with
the flock.
A uniform flock all of one kind of
fowls is more satisfactory in appear

more uniform results, and consider

HANDY MARKER FOR A GARDEN
In Planning Grounds Where Horse Is
Impractical. implement Shown Is
Of Much Value.

In marking ground in gardens, or
chards and other fields where horse
is impractical, the sled marker shown
in the illustration will be of value,
says Homestead. The runners are
made with a rounded point as for
sled and upon same at each end two
blocks are nailed with a space be-
tween them, so the connecting bar
or board will just slide in between
these blocks, as shown in illustration.
Upon these blocks a strip is nailed,
which is as long as the runner;
through this two screws are placed
to go into the connecting board and
thus hold the runners at any space
apart you may wish, and also permit
the easy and quick adjustment of the
runners to any width desired. The

Homemade Trap Nest.

the other kind the hen may go in and
out at pleasure. but cannot be con-
fined until after the egg has been laid,
since the egg itself is used for closing
the trap
A trap nest is to the practical poul-
tryman what the Babcock test is to
the dairyman. 1t gives each hens
record of egg laying. Thus the poor
layers may be picked out and the good
ones favored. 1t is better for the
poultryman to get rid of these hens
and their progeny as early as possible,
especially where poultry are kept for
eggs, and 1t is easier to build up a
laying strain of fowl than a good
milking strain of dairy cattle.
A handy trap nest is shown In the
accompanying picture. 1t is so simple
that any one can make 1t. 1t is, in fact.
merely an ordinary nest with a cir
cular or square opening in front. The
door, as shown, is of very light stuff,
pivoted at the top. When the nest is
set, a wire runs across the opening
and rests against piece of tin pro-
jecting from the opposite hole. When
the hen enters, she lifts the loose end
which permits the door to drop be
hind her. After she has laid, she Is
removed and the trap set for the next
one.

GOOD LESSONS IN FLOWING
Some Sound Practical Pointers That
viii Save Farmer Much Time
Have the Field True.
(By ]. G sTEIN)

Abs - VI . AIAANO
Have the field true on all sides /;
that is, It may be longer one way than
the other, but each side should be
straight so If you plow straight when
you start, you will have the dead fur
rows even and no wedges at the end.
There will also be no odd shaped
pieces In the center to make a lot
of extra turning.
The crooked way is used by many,
who start a furrow any old place on
one end of the field and drive to the
other end without a mark to go by
A little crook with people of this kind
does not seem to be of much impor.
tance, but crooked burrows always
take extra time and are a nuisance
in general
Another thing which saves much
time, particularly In harvest, is a
space which should be left between
the fence and the field unplowed This
should be about 16 feet wide, and
should be sown to grass. This strip
will save going through the grain with
binder, and back, and 1t also saves
the hired man a lot of extra work In
shocking, as he can start as soon as
the reaper does and will not have to
wait until a swath is cut In which to
place the shock.

l presume every one knows what
trap nests are by this time, and so
will merely say that they are nests in
which the hen that lays the egg is
confined until record is made of her
achievement, when the trap is again
set for another hen. know of just
two kinds of trap nests, one that
closes as soon as the hen goes in and
the other that is closed only after the
egg has been laid. In the former kind
the hen is shut In whether she lays
or not and as hens are often curious
they may be caught In this way and
confined unnecessarily, writes w. H..
