floor is used. The floor may be raised
somewhat from the surrounding dirt,
and, if the coop is on slope, bitches
can be run about it so that no water
will seep through into the coop. Many
poultrymen contend that the board
floor, raised from the ground with
room for ventilation underneath, al
fords the only insurance against damp
ness on the floor of the coop in win
ter. Others, equally successful, insist
upon the dirt floor. Either will be
found satisfactory if kept perfectly dry.
Dampness is the hen s worst enemy,
for once roup has gained hold on the
flock, it is difficult of eradication. The
hens must be kept off the damp ground
for cold wet feet will stop esq produc-
ton as quickly as anything. The hen
that is allowed to run out all winter
will probably not lay until spring. She
has to spend too much time thinking
about her feet to give much thought
to egg production. Furthermore, the
heat of the body is consumed in warm
ing up the legs and feet instead of GO
ing to stimulate the action of the lay
ing organs. SO the floor that is con.
tinually wet will keep the laying or
gans inactive. The main objection to
the dirt floor is that it is more diff
cult to keep the litter clean on account
of the constant working up of the

theory, however, claim that it is far
better to have the hens on the floor

it does require cleaning out more fire.
quently, than to make them work on
hard boards.
Cleanliness is an essential part of
the hen 3 comfort. Indeed, it has been
clearly demonstrated that foulness in
the coop will, directly or indirectly,
stop egg production. In the first place,
uncleanliness is the harbor of vermin,
and the hen that is infested with lice
or mites cannot work. The effect is
the same as that of cold-the strength
of the hen is taken up with fight for
her blood. The fuel that should go to
the egg organs is diverted to repair
the tissues torn down by the parasite.
She gets no rest at night, and in the
daytime she mopes about listlessly
when she ought to be working for her
food. If the dropping boards are not
cleaned frequently, and every day is
not too often, they will be found to be
alive with mites which swarm up onto
the roosts at night and sap the life of
the hen. Cases of neglect are very com
mon where the blood filed insects are
scraped off by the cupful in the morn
ing. Every crack is full, dry manure
is found to be literally alive with them,
while the roosts themselves are almost
red with the millions of parasites. The
poultryman wonders where they came
from. 1t is hard question to answer
but they are there. They seem to
spring from nowhere and to become
myriads before he is aware of their
presence. The nest boxes are found
to be infested, and the hens refuse ia
use them. The litter is full and con.
slant stream of the little pests is found
to course up and down the legs of the
hen. Can you expect her to lay under
these conditionsg
A further serious objection to the
unclean dropping board in summer il
that it becomes breeding place fol
maggots. Now the maggot is grub
and grubs are known to be valuable
as egg producers. But the maggot i!

some dead animal. You pick up a
chick some moTning and find that its
neck seems to have lost its stiffness
1t is suffering from Climber neck' and
the cause is too close intimacy with
decayed meat or maggots. Old hens
are not immune from the evils of this
disease, and when they 90 to scratch
ing in the droppings it is because they
find there some animal life. Beware
of the consequences, for, while they
may not get enough of the grubs to
give them timber neck, they are par
taking of food that will tend to place
them on the hospital list.
Mites can be handled if taken in
time and the measures are repeated.
The first thing is absolute cleanliness.
Cleanse the dropping board, or remove
it entirely. Pour liberal amount Of
kerosene on the ground under the
roosts, to discourage future genera.
tions Burn up the old roosts and nest
boxes. If you have dirt floor, first
clean out all the old litter, wet the
ground thoroughly and then spade it
up. Spray the interior of the coop with
lime and I've, creosote, or lime-sulphur
solution. Then replace the old roosts
with new ones planed free from knots
or anything that would afford hid
ing place for the mites, paint the roosts
with creosote and put tobacco leaves
under them wherever they are attached

to cross pieces; give your hens fresh
box of hard wood ashes to roll in and
then never cease to be vigilant. 1t
these directions are followed the YER
min will disappear and the hen is on
the road to egg production.
If the trouble is lice, different
method must be followed, for the mite
works only at night, when the hen is
on the roost, or when she is quiet on
the nest. The louise, however, stays on
the hen all the time. Plenty Of ashes
for busting will act as deterrent to
lice, but will not be found wholly eff
fective as rule. A good poultry pow
der will be found necessary from time
to time, and should be sifted thorough
ly through the feathers, the hen being
held head down. If the trouble seems
| to be confined to the head and neck,
an application of kerosene and lard
will be found very effective. This is
especially valuable in the treatment Of
young stock, as an experiment will
show. The lice will be seen to release
their hold and drop off.
| The value of the scratching pen as
an egg producer has been demonstrat-
ed over and over again in recent years.
1t is related that the effect Of scratch
ing was discovered by accident. A
farmer had hen that stole its nest
late in the season and came off with a
large litter of chickens. The weather
was so cold that she could not be al
lowed to run at large with her flock,
and was confined in an old shed where
the floor was covered with depth Of
several inches of chips. Food was
thrown to the flock and lively
scratching began, the old hen keeping
up the practice day after day. In a
few days she was heard to cackle, and,
upon investigation, a number of eggs
were found in an old stove in the shed
The hen continued to lay regularly un-
til her chicks were weaned, while the
balance of the flock, which was fed
every day on the ground in front of
the coop, produced no eggs at all. An
experiment with number of the flock
followed, and the result verified the
suspicion that scratching was respon
sible. Now the scratching pen is re-
garded as necessity in winter and il
provided in many of the largest poul
try farms in the country. It furnishe:
heat necessary for the fowl, gives hel
an apeptite and keeps her from becom
ing over-fat. Scientific investigation
has revealed the fact that the laying
organs are stimulated by the exercise
becoming more prolific and changing
in few days from a state of low dor
nancy to one of high production.
The exercise theory is well adapted
to that of the open front house. II
the house is open to the south, it viii
reap all the benefit of the sun OF
bright days, while the curtain will pro
teet it from damaging drafts on stormy
days. If the hens are made to worl
for their living they will be able tc
stand more severe weather as the ex
ereise tends to make them hardy. Many
poultrymen have splendid success with
these houses. even without the curtain
at night, but it is better to drop the
curtain as soon as the sun goes down
These are but few of the many
elements that go to make a successful
poultry flock.
