already described. These boxes may

When the hens are let off the nests
to feed the doors of the nest boxes
should be closed. which compels the
hens to remain on the floor until they
have had a chance to feed. The hens
will not return to the same nests, but
this is rather likely to be of benefit
than otherwise. All hens do not set
at exactly the same temperature, and
an occasional change averages up the
temperature for all the settings of
eggs.
No hen should be allowed to set, un-

Canadian Expert Recommends Use Of
Earth or Overturned Sod, Covered
With Straw or Chaff.

A nest can be made out OF an old
,oy about IL inches square and six

ontario Agricultural college recon-
uends that "some earth or an over
turned sod be placed in the bottom of

ners very full so that no eggs can
rolI out from the hen and get chilled.
Next put on about two inches OF
straw or chaff; and then put a few
parthenware eggs into the nest. Place
,be nest in some pen where nothing
can disturb the hen, and put her on
after dark. Feed and water must be
within easy reach and a dust bath
should also be convenient. II the
hen is setting quietly the next day It
will be safe to put the eggs under
her"

considerable satisfaction, is made in
three compartments. A 12 inch board
