TOP OF DROWNED CONTINENT

The British museum is Quitting an
expedition 20 the Pacific 10 try 20
solve tie problem OF gigantic prehis-
toric stone images of human beings
discovered on Carter island, a mere
speck in the ocean, about $500 miles
west of Chilli.
It is tsought that maybe this little
isle of mystery is the last pinnacle OF
. submerged continent which once in
bygone ages occupied the greater part
of the South Pacific and possibly
ieined Asia and America The inhabi-
tants may have gradually been forced
TO the top OF the last peak, there to
perish, only after they had erected
their wonderful monuments
The island is only forty-five square
miles in area. but on It there have
been raised immense platforms facing
the sea and formed OF huge stones
dtted together without cement. Some
of the separate stones weigh five
tons, and the sea wall at places is
5j feet high and 200 feet long. On
the land side of the platforms there
are broad stone terraces, on which
stand, upon pedestals, huge figures
carved out Of lava from the crater OF
an extinct volcano several miles
away
There are in all $50 of these images,
most of which have been thrown
down perhaps thousands OF years ago
The largest is sixty eight feet long
rom the top OF the head to the hips.
and its nose IS eleven feet in length
None OF the images shows a figure
below the hips and they seem to have
been originally set on their pedestals
as busts. Several of the busts weigh
250 tons apiece.
There is evidence that the work on
The images suddenly ceased. Vast
numbers of human skeletons are un.
der The stone platforms, probably the
bones of people who were sacrificed

PROPER HOUSING OF POULTRY
Chief Requisites of Building Are
Dryness, Perfect Ventilation and
Plenty of Sunlight.
CBy N. r. GILBERT.)

Frequently poultry keepers COM
plain bitterly of the failure of their
fowls to show profit, when the whole
fault lies in defective housing.
Poultry lead an entirely artificial
life when they live penned in a run.
or even when at liberty and provided
with sleeping-house-that is to say
they have their food provided them
and do not sleep in the trees, as their
natural instinct would teach them.
1t is simply the difference between
sleeping in a house and sleeping in
trees that upsets them. When they
do the latter, they may not lay well
but they keep their health. More than
half the diseases modern fowls suffer
are caused primarily by this defective
housing.
The chief requisites of house are
that it should be weather-proof, so
that whatever the inclemency of the
season. the fowls keep dry. 1t must
be provided with ample ventilation
and should have sunny aspect.
The sun is life to all animals, and
the more fowls get Of It, the better
Yet, sometimes, fowl houses are
placed in dark, secluded corners, and
built to admit hardly any light. A

poultry-house should always, IL pos
sible, be placed on ground sloping
slightly away from 1t, then in the wet
weather the rain drains away. II the
ground is quite level the rain off the
roof shows a tendency to remain in
the form of puddles.
A trench should be dug to carry II
away, or better still, there should be
spout on the roof to carry the wet
away down TO a down spout connected
with a surface drain.
Ii Is important that the ground
around the house, as well as the house
itself, be kept dry, as fowls never do
well on wet land.
Special attention should be paid to
the roof. The caves should overlap
some three inches. and 1t is all the
better il built of stouter wood than
the walls.
There is no necessity to cover the
roof with felt, provided it receives a
good dressing of tar at first and a
further coat each year. On no ac-
count make the roof of corrugated
zinc.
Such house will be cold in the
winter and hot in the summer If the
poultry-keeper has some sheets of
this very useful article-for such it
certainly is--make a roof of thin
boards and put the zinc on top.
For the floor, the earth needs to be
beaten down quite hard and a dress
ing of some inches of sand or light
dry earth put on top. If the soil is
clayey, il is better to have a wooden
floor, for it must be dry.
In any case, observe scrupulous
cleanliness, removing all droppings
once "A week and taking care there is
never any smell.
Ventilation is a subject better un-
/ derstOod now than formerly. We in
dulge in more of it for ourselves and
more for the fowls. Yet for them as
! for ourselves, we must not forget that
the thing can be overdone and that a
! good deal depends upon the location
of the house and the outside tempera-
ture.
