COMBATING LICE IN CHICKS
Small Quantity of Olive OIL Rubbed

EffectuaI.

If fowls are healthy, the premises
kept clean, and dust bath OF ashes
provided, lice rarely get the upper
hand, 1t being through the brood
hens, transmitting them to the chick
ems, that most harm ensues. A hen
with many or few lice on. her when
sitting transmits them to the chick
ems Immediately they are Matched.
They are to be found stationary on
the chickens head, above the beak
and eyes, and in few days when they
get more plentiful. are to be found
behind and on top of head and throat
simple and effective treatment
adopted by the government station in
New South Wales is to place small
quantity of olive oil in a saucer. and
the day after Matching dip the finger
IN the oil and thoroughly rub it into
the fluff OF the chickens head and IN

best TO annoint all chickens with the

SOME MISTAKES IN POULTRY
Too Many Beginners Start on Too
Large Scale--Mest Common Err
rsr Is Learning Too Fast"

1t is well for the beginner to adopt
the advice of men who are veterans
in the service. in order that they may
avoid many OF the stumbling blocks,
says the Poultry Journal
Too many novices start on toe
large n scale. They are not content
to begin at the bottom round of the
ladder ard gradually climb to the
top. That Is too slow for them. II
blessed with sufficient capital they are
pretty sure to start on a large scale.
Without experience, is it any wonder
that they do not succeed?"
But this is not the only cause OF
failure with the beginner The 9TH
ers might briefly be stated as hav-
ing too much land; buildings too scat
tered, entailing too much unnecessary
labor; the breed or breeds selected
not being suitable for the purpose
intended; house not built upon
the sanitary plan; too much chang
ing of the bill of fare; unmindful OF
smuH details; harboring too much I'M
profitable stock; carelessness in car
ing for ailing birds; relying too

fast.
1t is waste OF money to buy too
much land. From to 10 acres is suf-
hcient for the largest kind OF plant.
A general mistake is the continual
changing Of the bill of fare. There
should be one system Of feeding and
that regularly followed. The bill of
fare should contain the greatest va,
riety possible, but the system should
not be changed. New articles of food
should not be given to the exclusion
OF others until the fowls have had a
chance to become acquainted, with
them. All additions or changes
should be gradually made. II the
fowls are doing we'll on what they
are getting, no change should be
made at all
p Probably the most common error is
learning too fast" 1t is a note
worthy fact that, as a rule, by the
close OF the first year the beginner
forms the opinion that he knows Il
all. Thirty years spent IN the poul-
try yard has taught the writer that
he has much yet to learn. There is
always something new turning up.
The wise man reads, studies, prac-
tees and investigates, thus daily add
Ing to his store of knowledge.

Upstairs We have three bedrooms.

linen closet upstairs for bedding. and
one downstairs for table linen and
towels. Few small houses and not
very large houses have the conyen-
fences in this respect that should be
deemed necessary. Some folks don't
have much linen, and they need very
little cupboard room to keep 1t in; but
that is because they don't understand
the real satisfaction that comes from
the possession OF nice table and house
linen.
Linen is something a woman should

offers to get a tablecloth or two or
three really good towels at a bargain,
that is the time to buy. because these
articles are always needed, and II
costs less to have a supply on hand
than to buy in emergency Unfortu.
nately, too many American women
have fallen into the habit of providing
in sort of hand-to-mouth way. They
depend on wash day to supply clean
linen for the week, instead of having
variety to draw from. 1t costs no
more in the end to have Slenty than
to feel that you are short all the
time; in fact, 1t costs less, because
you can buy to better advantage, and
the wear and tear is less when you
have liberal supply.

AUTO CHEMICAL RESPONDED
 TO BEAN HILL FIRE.
Fast and Effective Work Done-5laze
 in Brunbsrg's Store.

In response to a telephone call just before o'clock on Sunday evening, Chief Stanton with the auto chemical and a crew of three from the central station made a speedy run to Bean Hill Norwich Town, for a fire in the store of Gus af Brunoerg in ths McNally property on West Town street, their prompt arrival and effective work with the chemical putting out the fire after some lively fighting. They succeeded in conflning it entirely to the first floor of the building, where it started in the confectionery and cigar store kept by store, which is open on Sunday, told the chief that he believed it probably started from cigarettes.
 When the call for help was tele- phoned from Norwich Town. Chief Stanton telephoned to Fire Commis- sioner Thomas H. Beckley, obtaining his sanction to answer the call as the property is out of the city limits, While the chemical was away the other companies protected the center of the city.
 With Driver Taft and Bremen Fitz- gerald and Lynch on the auto chemi- cal, with the chief, the machine made the three miles in four minutes and
 
 utes. which is looked upon by the chief as a fine demonstration of efficiency. The inside of the store was roaring furnace when they arrived, and the 40- gallon tank and the two three gallon tanks were used up. The big tank was also rechargod, this being the first time that this has been done at fire. Water was brought in buckets by the Bean Hill people for the recharging giving another demonstration of how valuable the auto chemical can he under any circumstances.
 Constable David Kinney rendered as- sistance that was appreciated by the firemen in keeping the crowd back, and the Yantic Engine company was also on hand, but the auto chemical had the fire out before the engine company had water on.
 Conditions were right for a good fire, as there was a 40-gallon tank oi kerosene in one corner of the store and a case of matches on one of the shelves but the prompt work of the men from the central station kept it down The building was wo-story frame occupied upstairs as a residence by Mir. Brunberg and down stairs by his store. The estimat- ed damage to the building was abou $500 and to stock about $500.
