MAKING
FARM

"HERE are more reasons than one
for making poultry a prominent
part of the farm program. With
300 to 500 chickens on a place many
tons of compost can be made, which
will be worth hundreds Of dollars il
fertilizing the garden and field crops.
1t is necessary to keep a poultry
house and yard literally supplied with
road dust or some other light soil. The
floor under the roosts should have a
fresh supply of this earth twice week
or oftener. 1t serves as an absorbent
for the droppings, produces a rich com
post very fast and destroys lice
As a dust heap is one of the first es-
sentials around a poultry plant this
clean, fine earth comes into play there
also. Dust which chickens use for
their baths does not need to be chang
ed more frequently than two or three
times In season. When it becomes
dirty it should become part of the
compost.
This fertilizer is valuable enough so
that it ought to receive some care, and
with several hundred chickens the an
nual accumulation will fill good sized
shed. 1t needs to be plowed in nber-
ally every season, being of special val

Cleaning department, ate his first
square meal in Is years a few

ten years he says he has lived
principally on his nerve.
Two weeks ago Curtin was op.

the total revenue will have reached
the splendid total of $168,250 900. or
an increase over the year 1911-12 OF
over $32,000.000. Some indication OF
the magnificent growth of the Domin-
ion may be CLEANED from the fact that
this increase In revenue during the pc
riod of one year almost equals the en-
tire revenue Of the country seventy
