sible admitted into the rooms. why
was not that the proper plan to pur.
sue with his hens?
Oxygen is needed even more NJ
night than in the daytime. and a chick
ems night is a long affair, especially
during the winter time, when II goes
to bed at 4:30. and is up at Q 30 or 2
a. m. So If fresh air is important II
certainly Is doubly 80 at night. and
the open houses provide for this very
nicely.
There are many kinds OF fresh air
houses in use at the present time.
those that have a canvas or burlap
curtain are not truly open.front
houses except when the curtain Is
withdrawn.
The best openfront is covered with
wire netting on one side or at least
the greater part OF one side. The
open side should face the south, so
as to admit the sunshine as well as
the fresh air.
As this is the storm side. the end
Of the house occupied BY the roosts
should have a canvas frame fitted
over the upper part leaving all the
rest OF the front that is occupied by
the scratching pen, etc. open to the
weather as the protecting caves or
slanting roofs are sufficient to keep
out the rain and excess Of sunshine.
The advantages of this way of hous.
Ing chickens are many, and It pro-
yides well-ventilated scratching

winter. and more even temperature
during all seasons Of the year.
During wet and muddy weather. the
scratching shed, which remains dry.
prevents the fowls from bringing mud
into the nest boxes on their feet. and
dirty eggs do not bring as ready a
sale as the clean ones, and washed
eggs lose their gloss, ana that outer

air more freely 10 the inner part OF
the shell, causing It to spoil moro
readily
The open-front houses remain com.
paratively dry during the wet weather,
and frost never accumulates on the in
side. so that litter remains dry for a
long time and droppings are more
easily cleaned There is no danger Of
the fowls taking cold as one would
seem to fear. Such troubles come from
impure air, produced by long damp
ness or draughts.
The pure air gives them resisting
power against roup. throat or siSlilar

These houses are now being tried in
places where the weather is very Sc /
we're in the wintertime. and no bad |
results have yet been reported.

The Virtue of Praise-A Talk to Knockers

Likewise any woman can be
turned into a good housekeeper
by a husband who judiciously
praises good dish and sorrow
fully remarks over a bad one that
IL isn't quite up to her TyuaI ex-
allied culinary standard.
Positively the only thing that
will nail a man to his own
hearthstone and make him a gen.
erous, attentive and interested
lover as we'll as a husband, Is to
fnd in his own home q brand of
flattery SO much more potent, so
much higher spiced and so much
more inexhaustible than any to
be had abroad that 1t puts all
other women into the amateur
hot air class beside his wife.
AS for employees, isn't 1t in
variably the man who knows he
is most trusted who is most
trustworthy, the one who knows
the boss depends on him who is
most dependable, the crackertack
salesman who works ten times as
hard to sell as the man who
knows that not much Is expected
of him?
Oh. it's praise, and not blame,
that makes the world go round.
We give the best OF us to those
who expect the best Of US, and
who appreciate that best. Throw
away the hammer, and try
spreading the salve!

HENS AS LIVING COST So

Editor The Georgian;
While there Is so much talk of
how to solve the high cost OF liv-
ing problem. think the follow
ing WIFI be OF some help to tho
readers OF your valuable paper.
1t should be especially helpful to
the working man, who depends
upon his income for a living and
who has back yard.
In a back yard 40 by 20 feet I
have 46 White Leghorn hens,
which were Matched May %. Dur
ing the month OF December they
laid 6s4 eggs, which l sold for
so cents a dozen, or q total Of
ss4.20. The entire cost OF feed
for the month was SO, leaving a
net profit of $3.50 for the month.
This can be done by anyone who
will give the same care and at
tention to their poultry that they
give to any other business.

THE COUNTRY DOCTOR
BY WILLIAM r. KIRK,

~ AY in, day out night out, night IN,
l Where snow Is thick and fees are thin,
He hustles with his CHEEKY grin
To fight with Ills.
The drives are long. the nights are cold,
He suffers hardships left untold
To call upon some mother old
Across the hills.
Little he says about his pay,
Often he gives his skill away,
And though he's getting bent and gray
He has no wealth.
HIS life has been an endless TRIAL
His motto has been self-denial;
Freely he gives from every vfai
For some ones health,
The gallant soldier goes away
While fife and drum and bugle play
Bravely to conquer or to Stay
That ir his part
The country doctor rides alone
Through rugged roads, DER stick and stone.

This acquits our gentlemen and

does carry with It a suggestion of
intellectual imbecflity. Some per

Then, as now, 1t was the neither

But people are, by the kind prov.
idence Of God, SO constituted as to
be unable for long to forget their
brains, even II they make no prac.
hcal use Of them; and so, after a
couple of years, the bicycles were
sent to the pawnshop or stored in
the garnet.
Then later on came the epoch
OF bridge whist. 1t answered the
same purpose as bicycling. filled
the same chasm that tango, turkey
trot and similar gymnastio vasa-
ries fill now. 1t had its day, but,
