While no definite rule can be made
relative to floor space per bird. because
1t depends upon the attention and care

square feet Of floor space is considered
a safe estimate Of the amount required
under ordinary conditions.

Dust Bath For Poultry.

Provisions should be made for dust
bath i'm every pen. for the problem of
dealing with lice Is greatly reduced by
its presence. The objection that it Gre
ates dust in the house is greatly over
come by its beneficial features. and a
closed bath with a special window in
the south side and accessible by q
small opening can be easily construct
ed which has an additional advantage
in that 1t is comparatively free from
the danger of any dirt or litter accu-
mulating from the pen. Fine road
dust finely sifted coal ashes. ETC., are
very desirable materials for the dust
bath. and the addition Of lime. tobacco
dust and patent preparations tends to
make 1t more effective.

In place Is thrust down halfway to
the bottom of the bin, the stick with
drawn and the liquid poured down
through the pipe. The stick merely
prevents the pipe from becoming filed
when thrust into place. The bin
should remain tightly closed for from
twenty-four to forty-eight hours A
longer exposure is likely to injure the
germinative power in some seeds.
The liquid carbon bisulphide on be-
Ing liberated will be quickly trans
formed into gas. which, being heav-
Ter than the air, settles to the bottom
and fills all the air spaces between the
seeds or kernels. TLe liquid costs
about 30 cents for single pound or
five pounds for q dollar. The work
must be done In the daytime, away
from lamps, stoves or fire Of any sort
No fire must be allowed to come near
until everything has been thoroughly
aired. for the gas or fumes are very
explosive when mixed with air. Grain
should be shoveled over several times
Great care must be observed to breathe
as little as possible of the fumes, as
they are very poisonous and will as
easily produce death among men as
among insects.

the actors as to what they should

the coolest night in twenty years. Now,

Since writing the foregoing, I have
read Comrade F. NJ. Mixon's we'll writ
ten little book, "reminiscences of a
Private" with interest, and as Ker-
shaw's brigade and Jenkins brigade
were both in Longstreets corps, I
have distinct recollection of several
incidents related by him. Like all
Men who write of the war from MEM
ory, my friend has made several mis-
takes, to two of which I call his at
tention: T am sure he meant no re-
flection of KershaW's gallant men,
where on Page Ct, he writes, anent
the battle of the Wilderness, on the
9Th of May, 1854: "Just as We had
cleared enough room the command
was given, left flank: This threw US
in line of battle. We were ordered
to halt in this position. We had al
ready stopped when KershaW's men
came fitting back closely followed by
the enemy No one semed to know
that We were there. When Kershaw's
men discovered us by running into
us, they we're happy and rallied Of
their own accord, and the way We did
put it to those Yankees" I saw no
backward movement of any of our
brigade, but we pressed into the thick
est of the fight, our left resting across
the plank road. I was in position to
see, and my mind was clear and MY
eyes wide open, for l was in command

bility of my position. If any Of our
men ran out they must have been
wounded men and were hunting the

engaged the day before were over
powered and forced to retreat and rar
through our lines, as we'll as Jenkins
brigade, and had We not been seoveon.
! ed troops there would have been a
stampede, but Jenkins and Kershaw's
saved the day. Again on page SO, in
speaking of Deep Bottom, he says:
eve again took up our regular rou-
! tine of duties and had no more dis
| turbances from this quarter. Every
thing remained quiet over here. We
were about the last of September or
the first of October taken back to Pet
ersburg and again went into the
trenches. We we're placed where the
blow up afterwards took place, and
while We were here our engineers
were countersinking shafts, endeav-

little history is intended. That troops
ran into Jenkins, I have no doubt
bur they were not Kershaw's, I am
