Chickens in a Small Yard.

Among keepers of small flocks in back
yards one often sees small house with
a small run. The run is usually bare, be-
cause the chickens quickly clean up all
the green stuff that grew there when
they were first put into the pen.
One of the great troubles with these
small places is the lack of sufficient
space for scratching. Usually there is
none at all. The coop being of size only
large enough to accommodate the birds
at night. there is no place for scratching
material and if there We're "a foot or
two extra it could not be kept clean from
droppngs The feeding in these cases
is done by throwing the corn on the bare
ground or with patent exercise or ny
the hopper method.
Bad weather usually compes feeding
in the open yard in the air. or in the
small coop in pans. If the feeding is done
in the open yard. the fowls will not eat
as much as they should because of the
rain. and what they leave may become
musty in a short time If they eat the
muSty food they are liable to bowel
trouble. If they eat only limited guam
tity they go to roost with insufficient
bad methods of raising chickens.
Even in clear weather those chickens
do not get sufficient exercise. They
prance around the bare outside pen most
of the day. and they lay eggs in limited
quantity. Not being kept active. they do
not get the appe:iteS necessary for the
consumption of egg-making foosi 1t
seems to me that the small chicken man
is overlooking possibility.
Why not abolish. that bare open yard
and builG thereon scratching shed. using
all the spare ground. The south side of
such a shed could be left entirely open
in the summer time. and in winter could
be closed with glass and muslin. Or go
only half way and make of half your
present bare run a scratching pen. In
this way you produce the necessary activ
ity among the chickens. The scratching
pen can be piled a couple of feet with
litter. the grain feed thrown into 1t. and
the merry. healthy scratching would
go on.
1t seems to me that the small poultry
man is making mistake to do away
with scratching pen because his space is
limited If the scratching pen is prop
erly built the chickens have just as much
room. They are, moreover, protected from
inclement weather. their food is clean
and dry and they are not moping In
bare yard that, ten chances to one. has
little shade for them i'm summer and lit
tie protection against the cold wind of
winter.
In scratching pen the hens could be
hSpt DuSy dil WIultI, dIu tHCy
strength to withstand the cold spell, and
they will lay eggs when the price of eggs
is high.
In many instances chickens are kept
with little touch of pride. The owners
of small flock like to see the chickens
around the bare yard. But they want
eggs. and healthy birds. In reality, they
hope to make a profit on their small
flock Sentiment has caused many fall
ures in the chicken business. 4 man

The japanese newspaper Jill Simpo
published a recipe for living To- y ars OF
which the following are the chief points:
Rise early and go To bed early sleep
for six or seven hours in "A perfectly
dark room with the windows open; spend
as much time as possible in the open air;
eat meat only once day: drink tea and
coffee In moderation. and take no to-
bacco or alcohol: take hot bath every
morning; wear thick clothes and not
silk; devote one day week To rest. and
do not read or write ON that day, re-
store the organs which are used up by
age by eating the same organs Of AMI
mails; avoid strong emotion and cverex-
ertion of the brain.
The final hint is for men in particular
if you are q bachelor. get married. if
you are a widower. marry again.
