POULTRY CORNER
FOR The BOYS
It Pays to Keep Clean.
BY ]. II. REED.

BY j. n. REED.
No matter what business you are
in it. pays to keep your shops and
your stores clean. And SO 1t is In the
poultry business.
For hens will not eat from a dirty
floor. No matter how tempting the
feed may be, they refuse to accept 1t
when 1t Is scattered in dirty bedding
among the remains Of two weeks feed
ing. OF course If they will not eat,
they cannot lay. And IL they cannot
lay. your chances for a profitable sea-
son will go glimmering.
So 1t is up to you, young man, to
clean up that poultry house floor and
keep it clean. Sweep out the old bed
ding and leftover feed every morning.
Get into the corners and under the
nests. Do a good job Of it, if you are
going to do it at all.
And when you have it all cleaned
up, spread some fresh straw over the
floor. and feed your grain in it. Do
this each and every day, until 1t be.
comes a habit Clean out the water
pans, too, and fill them with clean,
fresh water.
And your hens will repay you for
your trouble by laying twice as many
eggs. 1t pays to keep clean.

GULL THE FLOCK;
1T will PAY YOU

VIII 1t pay the poultryman to Gull
his flock closely?
James G. Halpin, secretary of the
Wisconsin Poultry association, says
it will and he realizes that eggs and
poultry likely will be higher later on.
But In spite of all this he is urging
the poultrymen Of the state to Gull
mere closely than usual. He argues
that with present feed prices farmers,
and certainly other poultrymen, can
not afford to feed hens which show
from their general makeup that they
win not develop into good producers.
He has found that on many farms 200

Some nations (of a remote world)
we're very intent upon living at peace
one with another-so intent that they
spent enormous sums in making them
selves prepared for war. For in that
world. curiously enough, the condi.
tions we're such that there was no way

ready to do so at the drop Of hat.
But incidentally to these martial
preparations it was impossible to pre-
vent war acquiring, potentially, new
horrors, and when these numbered
several the nations suddenly few al

They laid it to a natural curiosity.
I'VE simply had to try those new
horrors outl" they explained to the

The horse had run away and was
tangled up in the wire fence at the
side of the muddy road. Its haltWit

tried to lift the animal until he was
out of sorts and covered with mud.
A well-groomed man came along

Rout the Lice!

Here is q very effective lice
powder which may easily be
made at home:
Mix, away from fire, one part
Of crude carbolic acid with FIVE
parts of gasoline. Stir into this
mixture just enough plaster
paris to make a thick, moist
mass. Spread the paste out on
a paper and allow to dry. After
the gasoline has evaporated, the
plaster mixture may be applied
like any busting powder.
The powder gets into the
pores Of the lice and kills them
by suffocation or the carbolic
acid poisons them. Some of
the compound put into the dust
bath will be found an easy
method of controlling the para
sites.

chickens are being kept with only

were reduced to the 100 best layers
their owners would have many more
eggs and much lower feed bills.
On a large proportion Of our farms
there are, according to Mr.. Halpin,
old hens which have outlived their
usefulness. Many Of these have long
toe nails which show that thye have
not worked for months. These and
the "crowheaded" thin breasted weak

Win golden lures to lead him on
me truant winds low ufurmurings,
The surge OF southwark sw winc.
He sees the Sentian by the brook
cast back at him an azure look,
Ana marks above the soft green sod
A pirouetting butterfly,
Like a blown shred OF goidenrod,

He tastes the brew that Robin Hood
once auafed Within the ancient wood
The aromatic essences
OF beechen and OF balsarn trees.
And feels an ardor run along
Ills veins. and stir his I'M. 10 song
a simple strain OF reedy mirth,
Echoes Of airs Arcadian.
Fur Of the ecstasy of earth.
The JOY Of Pan.
He thrills to hear the crlckets Groom
Beneath the Marches Of the noon.
When the rcd harvest promise smilss
From all the fruited orchard tales
And CLEANS more glory from the hues
That on the Hill slopes flame and fuse
Senses In them q stronger spell
Than In the radiant dyes that elow
On canvases by Raphael
And Angelo.
And n the dusk IND dewfAn md
