certain that he has a strictly fresh

When many birds are kept in a
small space. however, the ground is
likely to become foul 1t is, there
fore, advisable to divide the lot and
sow part of it with some quick grow
ing grain such as oats, wheat, or rye.
In this way. the yards may be rota-
ted every three or four weeks during
the growing season, the hens being
turned on the growing grain when it
is few inches high A good combi-
nation is oats and wheat in equal
parts, sowing six Or seven bushels to
the acre (43,560 square feet).
For the poultry house, about four
square feet Of food space per bird
should be allowed for the general pur-
pose breeds. The other essentials are
fresh air. dryness and sunlight.
Birds that are too fat will lay few
eggs. 1t is, therefore, advisable to
make them work, for most of their
feed by scratching in the litter of
which there should be about four
inches on the floor. A good seed mix
ture is scratch ration composed of
equal parts OF corn, wheat and oats
and mash OF two parts corn meal
and one part each Of bran, middlings
and corn meal, feeding about equal
quantities of the scratch ration and
of mash. This should be scattered in
the litter morning and noon, allowing
a small handful for every three hens.
AT night the birds should be given all
they can eat Of 1t in a V-shaped
trough. In the winter time, some
green feed should be given at noon
or mangel-wurzels are good.
If the birds do not eat all the grain
that is scattered in the litter, reduce
the quantity. Grit, oyster shells and
water should be available for the
birds at all times.

LUMBER FLOAT FOR BED

AS devotes Of the out doors life, a
man and his wife and eleven year old
son. who ere camped about a quarter
~ mile below the old Taber mill,
furnish shining examples. When 1t
was suggested to the man that quart
ers in town could be provided for
them by the United Charities, he de.
clared that he would suffocate if he
had to sleep in a room.
The family is living under shelter
made of two grain sacks, sewed to-
gether and made somewhat larger
with the addition OF some water proof
cloth The whole shelter is some
thing like five or six feet square. The
camp is established right on the river
bank, just ont of the way of high
water. Beds are the old floats which
we're used by the lumber jacks.
The family started from ST. Louis
ii June. They walked practically the
entire distance, coming up on the Hi.
nois side of the river. The man work
I'd in some OF the harvest fields, and
be could do work now if he could Sc
cure any. The family left ST. Louis
after school was out, and made their
way here.
The man has done considerable work
around the harvest fields in various
rarts OF the country around Chicago
and St. Louis. The family is not lack.
Ing for any of the necessities Of life
and they seem to enjoy their rather
odd manner of living.
II any one has need for helper in
the field, Secretary GLASGOW of the
United Charities, would be able to put
them in touch with this man.
