POULTRY CORNER
FOR The BOYS
About the Poultry House.
Nv J, n. REED.

Tho first thing . good business man
does is to find . house In which to
keep his goods. II he can't build one.
he rents one,
So It 10 with . good poultryman. He
must have q house for his hens, and
not allow them to roost on the ma
chinery in the barn.
But any business man Will warn you
not to overinvest at the start IT
isn't necessary to spend . lot OF
money in building . now poultry
house. Your father has plenty OF
places in which to put his money with
out setting you up in business. Don't
ask him for any. Later. when you
have made some money OF your own
out Of the flock. he will be only too
glad to help you. But don't spend any
more money than you have to at the
start.
Here is the way two city boys
started the poultry business They
got a couple Of piano boxes from the
neighbors for next to nothing. Then
they stood these up back TO back In
the driest part OF their stock yard,
and nailed them together. After they
had sawed out q door from one end
and put up the roosts and nests. they
had a poultry house that was as good
a. could be asked for.
You boys out on he farm arc more
fortunate. Most of you have . poultry
house already. or else some old aban-
doned building that can be turned into
one without much trouble. Get some
roofing paper the first thing you do.
and make the roof water tight.
II you have any paper left. you can
use It for covering the cracks in the
building.
The next thing you do. take . shovel
and bank up the earth around tho
edges of the walls. 80 that the water
will run away from the building when
it rains and leave a dry floor.
II the winters are cold. put up q
few cross rafters under the roof and
nn this space with straw. This VIII
keep the moisture from collecting on
the walls and ceiling and dripping
down ON the floor in zero weather.
Then put in roosts that can be fold
ed out of the way or taken out In
cleaning. and nests that can be taken
out and cleaned once In a while. Gov
er up all the rat holes with gslvan-
lied iron. and fix muslin curtain over
the window. so that a good air ctrcu-
lation can be maintained.
And then IL there is any spare paint
about the place. give your poultry
house . coat Of paint It makes the
wal n h1Iat-
ness, and that 10 a big asset In any
business.
A roll Of roofing paper. few nails.
some old boards, and . little enter.
prise will turn the Oldest and most
ramshackle poultry house into . profit
able investment. There is NO excuse
for not housing your poultry properly
Get busy.

which seemed to work effectively
There were three creameries in the
same town. The one l visited went
to see because it had the reputation
Of being the most particular one in the
state Of Illinois. The owner absolute
~ declined to accept . can Of milk
which was not in perfect condition.
When the milk was delivered the
butter maker was the sole fudge -, te
its condition. watched him take In
milk all one morning. As . can was
unloaded he lifted tho lid. smelled Of
the contents and II he had any doubt
about the quality he set It aside and
It was sent back to the farm.
l asked the owner IT he did not lose
customers occasionally and he an
swered that he did. He said that not
infrequently one of his customers be
came offended and took his milk tc
one of the other creameries and he
was glad to have him do 20.
Tho butter from the milk he took In
was sold to . single Chicago nrm and
the receipts were divided among the
PATRONS Of the creamery, on Z cooper
alive basis.
This method Of selection put every
patron on his guard. He knew that
the. day he took in bad favored milk
he was going to be cut out Two OF
three Of the patrons whose milk was
rejected the day I watched the deliv'
cry took the rejection in good. part
saying they would hnd out where the
trouble lay. One or two srumbled
little and took their milk back, but not
one gave any indication that he would
not be back the next day.
This putting the quality Of the milk
on q financial basis and refusing TO
accept 1t unless 1t was beyond suspi.
cion was not highly ethical. but II
seemed to accomplish its purpose. The
patrons were protected against un'
cleanly methods and paid for taking
pains to furnish perfect milk. Ine
butter from this factory has made
place for itself and the careless or IN
competent dairyman has been put IN
the place in which he belongs.

pie of their counties do not believe
that an extraordinary session exists
az contemplated. by the constitution
aud that therefore they are opposed
TO the enormous expense OF an extra
