up last year, averaged $500 gross pei
acre crop per season. Do not be sat
isfed until you have worked out a
crop rotation adapted to your soil, eli
mate and market environment and
that rotation is averaging you a gross
return of $50 per acre crop per season
Conclusion.
Therefore, in closing, permit me to
say, study your farm soil and make
your crop rotation improve rather
than impoverish your land. Then you
can never be accused of being a soil
robber and leave behind you a de-
pleted soil. We must get our bread
and butter for today, but VIC should
always have an eye or tomolrow's
supply. Nature has been prodigal
with us, storing up for centuries the
very elements our crops can utilize
the best. We are the stewards of this
heritage, SO we should use, but not
abuse, Our inheritance. Yea, we
should do more. We should pass the
farm on to our posterity improved
in every way SO the next generation
can truthfully say of this one, the
farms are better for their having liv-
ed on them.
This mixing brains with soil, en-
riches the farm, makes country homes
inviting and farm life attractive,
healthful and remunerative.

Joel inquired.
Silas shook his head obviously.
Don't you like it, Silas?' was the
anxious inquiry.
"How many barrels did you say you

"Seven."
"Well, Joel, if you had another
apple you might have made eight"

House for One Hundred Hens.


In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside dlpears an article about THE
Profitable Fstrrn Poultry House" Ae-
cordng TO the author. about one hun
drtd hens is the number kept on most
farms. In order to build a suitable
| habitation FOR one hundred hens a
house costing about S165 is necessary.
The author says in part:
when you build houses for chick
ems. YOU Want to keep in mind their
health and comfort. Proper housing
Increases egg productions, and improper
housing decreases il. Locate your
potiitry-hause on a light, porous soil,
like gravel, somewhat higher than the
surrounding ground. Build il on the
south side Of your farm barn, not inn
mediateIy next to it. but close enough
so that II is sheltered from the cold
north winds. If this is not possible,
build it ON the leeWard side Of your
orchard or woodlot. Always face it to
the south SO the windows Will admit
all the sunlight possible. Allow about
four square feet of floOr space per fowl.
\ good size To build for one hundred
fowls Is sixteen feet wide and twenty
five feet long. If YOU desire to Keep
more the length or the number Of
houses may be increased.
4 well-built poultry house should
be dry. we'll lighted and well ventilat-
ed. Fresh air in abundance is one
great essential to be always kept in
mind.
THE only satisfactory floor for a.
poultry house is a concrete floor laid on
a. snb-filler Of cobblestones. or COM
mon field stones. The concrete mixture
shat has given good service is made of
the following proportions: one part
cement two parts sand and three parts
gravel. To get smooth and hard
surface on top Of the floor. tramp il
down well, SO the water and cement
will rise to the top. where it will
harden.
The foundation should be of con-
crete and common field stones and
should come at least six inches above
the. surrounding ground. The. concrete
mixture for foundation is the same as
for floor. Foundation walls should &c
beneath frost line, but TO within six
inches of the surface. For that no con-
crete need be used. All that is nee
essary is to fill the trench with small
stones.
Another very important factor in
the construction OF a poultry house is
that there be absolutely no drafts.
This can only be accomplished by
building the three sides air tight. Al
low all air fresh to come in one sidef
preferably the south side, and even
there if possible above the fowls.
