POULTRY NOTES.

Provide shade for all the poultry
during the hot days
The fowls should have water In
abundance at all times.
Exercise is as essential for growing
chicks as feed and water.
The lack of protein is the direct
cause of mature pullets not laying
Asserting market eggs according to
size and color is a good business
move.
Little turks are delicate little erea.
lures and should be watched at all
times.
If protein is supplied freely there
win be an abundance OF eggs from
the same flock.
Use a good lice paint on the roasts
in the morning. and repeat every two
or three weeks.
Sunshine is very necessary for sue
cess with poultry when supplied to
the right places.
Grit is essential at all seasons Of
he year. Oyster shells should al
ways be available.
Incubator chickens V e under the
best of ARE have a hard time of It;
without care they perish.
In the production of eggs as in that
of milk, proper feeding is essential to
attaining the best results.
No matter what kind OF floor there
is in the poultry house, the main
thing is o let it get damp.
Do not. give sweet milk one time
and sour the next as this changing
from one to the other will cause
bowel trouble.
Don't let the little chicks run in the
wet grass. This causes many ills
which make great inroads on the
number of chicks.
Hen nests should be cleaned and
whitewashed after each hatch before
starting another, and the old nesting
materials should be burned. Fight
lice now and all the time.
A house eight by twelve is a YER
convenient size for a small flock Of
fowls. II a large flock is to be housed
or more small ones would be bet
ter than a very large house.
