A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

It is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows. His wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask him if coffee is a cause of con-
stipation, stomach and nervous trou-
bles.
81 have been coffee drinker all my
life, and when taken sick two years
ago with nervous prostration, the doc
tor said that my nervous system was
broken down and that would have to
give up coffee.
Il got so weak and shaky could
not work, and reading an advertise
ment of Postum l asked my grocer il
he had any of it. He said, Yes and
that he used it in his family and it
was all it claimed to he.

The grain that is given to them
should be scattered through straw on
the floor of the house. It's a great
sight to watch flock of healthy hens
make the straw fly when they want
meal. Many poultrymen make the
floor of lime because they say that
the concrete wears the claws of the
hens.
Burned lime is placed over the
ground several inches deep and is
packed down hard. Sufficient water
is then put on the lime to Stake it
properly so that it will form a pasty
mortar, which is then allowed to dry
and harden. This sort of floor is
very satisfactory and also furnishes
lime to aid in the making of egg
shells. A floor like this becomes worn
in spots and has to be renewed at
times, but it is very easy to place
lime in the depressions that are worn
by the hens, and put little water
on it.
The chicken house should always
face toward the south, and the north
and west sides should be carefully
closed. Chickens have very little
body heat, so the house must be care
fully protected against the cold. Ven
tilation cannot be handled in the same
way it is in stock barns. Thin cotton
in stretched over the windows facing
the south, and this provides good ven
tilation without causing any drafts,
which are very dangerous to poultry
Very little headroom is needed by
chickens, so the back of this house is
only made feet 10 inches high,
while the front is Z feet 10 inches. A
small place such as this can be Kept
warm by the poultry.
Poultry houses are often neglected
in regard to appearances There is
no particular reason for this except
that the building is small and people
think that it will not make any differ
ence. The necessary paint tc make
a nice-looking chicken house can be
had for very little money and it can
be applied easily in short time.
The walls are generally made OF
drop siding anc the inner walls can
be made in several ways. One OF the
hest is with wall board. Wall board
is a nonconductor of heat and cold
and is ais Alright and vermin proof.

Famous Crown Of Lombardy.

Italy declared war on the same day
of May that Napoleon IN 1905 was
crowned king of Italy at Milan, and
with his own hands placed the ancient
iron crown of Lombardy on his head
This most famous crown of Europe is

naent belonging to King Alfred of
England, now preserved in the Ash

Il makes smooth, tight wall that can
De readily painted with whitewash or
crude oil and there are no hooks and
corners to harbor the vermin that al
ways get into the chicken house more
or less. The walls can also be Gov
cred with matched ceiling which will
give smooth surface that can be
easily painted.
Inc rocf can be made of sheathing,
which is covered with prepared roof
ing. The inside wall is made of wall
board or of matched ceiling the same
as the walls.
The roosts are placed in the back
part of the house under the roof and
are fastened to the droppings board
that is placed underneath them. The
nests are fastened underneath the
droppings board and all the furniture
can thus be moved out together when
the chicken house is to be cleaned.
The darkness that the hens require
for laying is furnished by placing the
nests under the droppings board. The
scratching floor is at the front Of the
house, so that it will get plenty of
sunshine.
One end of this poultry house is
given over to feed room, where the
future meals of the chickens can be
kept This is handy arrangement

caution to place a spring on the door
between the feed room and the rest of
the house so that there will be no
danger of the door being left open so
that the chickens can get into the
feed and eat too much.

One Of the best ways to build a
poultry house is with a shed roof
In addition to being fine for the poul-
try it is also easy to build. The de-
sign shown here has a depth of ten
feet, which will allow the sunlight to
penetrate to the back part of the
building. There is nothing that en-
courages the hens to lay, more than
lots of sunshine In the early spring
when eggs are out of sight in price
plenty of sunshine will keep the hens
on the job, which means that the man

It is absolutely necessary to have
a concrete foundation, as it is very
discouraging to rats and mice to at
tempt to dig through this material.
In this little house the concrete walls
are carried up 1 foot inches above
grade, which forms very effective
barrier against the rodents that think
chicken houses form ideal dwellings
fon them. The floor is also made of
concrete, SO that the rats cannot bur-
row up from underneath. The floor
should be well covered with straw and
the feed can then be scattered
through this.
Strong, vigorous hens can only be
maintained if they are given plenty
of exercise. This is furnished by
making them scratch for their meals.
