SPADING UP FEEDING PLACES
Practise Tends to Purify Ground and
Encourages Exercise on Part Of
Fowls In Flock.

On most farms feed for the flock is
scattered about on the ground. and
the chickens are continually fed with
in a small space. The surface OF the
ground soon becomes foul with the
droppings OF the flock. True. sunshine
acts as a germicide. and IL the space
- at all sloping, the washing OF the
-ain helps some. but generally the
spot Is level and often muddy
The ground quickly becomes con
taminated with the continual tramping
OF the flock. and If there be one sick
fowl the whole flock may soon become
infected. This is especially true with
small chicks and young turkeys.
The spading up Of the feeding place
once or twice a week will bring good
results. 1t will tend TO purify the
ground. II will induce exercise on the
part OF the flock which is always de-
sirable. Especially In this true when
the flock il confined in yards. and

to obtain.
