BOOST CLOSET FOR POULTRY
Considerable Stress Laid on Curtain
In Front Of House at Maine
Experiment Station.

In the curtain-front type OF poultry
house used at the Maine experiment
station a feature of the original plan
on which considerable stress was
laid was the canvas curtain in front
Of the roosts.
This curtain, together with the
back wall of the house and the drop
pings board under the roosts, formed
a closet in which the birds we're shut
up at night during cold weather.
When the curtain-front house was
first devised it was thought essential
to provide such a closet to conserve
the body heat of the birds during the
cold nights when the temperature
might go we'll below zero. Expe-
rience has shown, however that this
was a mistake. Actual test shows
that the roosting closet is of NO ad-
vantage, even in such a severe eli
mate as that of Orono. On the con-
trary, the birds certainly thrive bet
ter without the roost curtain than
with it. 1t has been general OBJ
servation among users Of the curtain
front type of house that when the
roost curtains are used the birds are
particularly susceptible to colds. 1t
is not hard to understand why this
Fshould be so. The air in a roosting
closet when it is opened in the
morning is plainly bad. The fact
that it is warm in no way offsets
physiologisally the evils of its lack
of oxygen and excess of carbon d.
oXid, ammoniacal vapors, and other
exhalations from the bodies of the
birds.
For some time past it has been felt
that the roosting closet was at least
unnecessary, if not in fact a positive
evil. Consequently the time of be-
ginning to close the roost curtain in
the fall has been each year longer
| delayed. Finally in the fall of 1910
it was decided not to use these cur
tains at all during the winter. Con
sequently they were taken out of the
house, or spiked to the roof, as the
case might be. The winter of 1901
was severe one. On several occa
sions the temperature dropped to sc
| degrees below zero. Yet during this
winter the mortality was exceptional
ly low and the egg production excep
tionally high.
| In view of this experience the sta
ton has decided to discontinue the
use of the roost curtain. 1t would
seem to be generally undesirable OIL
at least unnecessary.

JAPANESE TO SUBMIT
SUPPLEMENTARY note
Ambassador Chinda Informs Secretary
Bryan Of His Covemmsnts
Intentions.
HEmET INCIDENT IS RECALLED

| The Japanese Ambassador yesterday
informed Secretary Of State Bryan that
he will present in day or two sup
Elementary rejoinder to the answer OF
the United States to the original note
of protest against the California alien
| land law.
Ambassador Chinda did not disclose
the nature of the supplementary note
which he said he would present On be-
half Of his government. Secretary Bran
said he did not know Of any new de-
velopment which would require a new
argument on the part Of the Japanese
government.
One explanation of this unusual pro-
cedure on the part Of the Japanese sug-
gested here is that the Tokyo govern
ment wishes to make protest against
the incident at Helmet. Cal. last week,
when a number of Korean laborers were
expelled from the town. The ambassa-
dor has never presented to Mr.. Bryan
the views of his government on this
occurrance, though Mr.. Bryan last week
Informally assured the Japanese Am
bassador that it was much regretted by
this government
1t also was suggested that the pres
sure of the OPPOSITION party in Japan
and its attacks on the Tokyo ministry
for its failure to secure from the United
States prompt settlement Of the
California land law controversy might
be responsible for the supplemental note
coming from Japan. The japanese gov
eminent has been repeatedly attacked
at home by the opposition leaders, who
in public meetings and by means of
posters as well as in the press, have
charged that the existing ministry was
incompetent to adjust the matter, be-
cause it was taking too moderate po-
sition In the controversy. Posters max
ing these charges against the govern
ment of Japan, and also attacking the
government and people Of the United
States for its treatment of the Japa-
nese, have been posted on the walls of
the American Embassy Building and in
the vicinity of the embassy in Tokyo.
Though apologies were made by the
Japanese government for these occur
rences, the posters have since reap
peared. together with others of an even
more violent nature. Only last night.
according to press reports, the opposi-
ton held another mass meeting, at
which demand was made on the ministry
for compelling the United States to meet
Japan's objections to the California law.

The "Alkali Ike dolls have become so

East are running contests, giving these
novelties as prizes. The General Film
Company branches have ordered the dolls
10 supply the various different photoplay
theaters in their territory. One photo
play theater in Pennsylvania has ordered
200 dolls to give away as souvenirs.

managers are progressive, and in spite of
the intense heat that is looked for this
summer, they will be able to draw the
crowd with nothing more or less than an
''Alkali Ike" doll. 1t has been predicted
by a doll manufacturer that knows his
business that practically every child in
the United States and Canada will have
a doll before the first of January. This
