EXPERIMENT NOT A SUCCESS
"Pa's" Brilliant Idea Merely Resulted In a Remarkable Rise In
 Rolled Oats.

A small boy appeared at the back door Of a neighbor's house In Hunt ing Park avenue a day or so ago and said to the matron who opened the door:
 Good morning"
 Good morning." the housewife re- turned. somewhat curiously.
 'T came over to tell you something" Well, what Is it7"
 Last evening my papa was angry because the water boiled out of the steamer under the rolled oats"
 ''Is that so?'
 "Yes. And then he made up his mind to fix the steamer so that 1t couldn't happen again"
 What did he do?"
 "He put some water In the steamer and then soldered 1t all up."
 ''Is that what you came over to tell mef'
 "Yes, and to borrow your steplad- der"
 What do you want with the step- ladderf"

main on the old runs the danger of contamination is always present.
 To treat for intestinal parasites feed should be withheld for 12 hours, and one of the following remedies given:
 Powdered areca nut. 30 to 45 grains for an adult bird; powdered areca nut l5 grains for immature chicks.
 This can be mixed in wet mash and fed so that each gets an equal amount. It can be fed to older birds in capsules which can be forced down the gullet
 Turpentine, one to three teaspoon fuls, depending upon the age of the bjrd, is also effective. It can be made less severe by mixing with an equal amount of cottOnseed oil, but If inef fective, should be used full strength. The best method of giving turpentine is by forcing it through small fiex- ibie catheter that has been oiled and is passed through the throat into the crop.
 Good results have been reported also with the use of tobacco dust. using five to ten grains to bird. This can also be fed in wet mash.
 The droppings containing the worms should be burned or buried deep to prevent the chicks from picking them up.

COOP FOR THE BRo0DY HENS
Large Dry Goods Box With Sides and Bottom Slated Will Prove Quite
 Satisfactory.

You can take large dry goods box, knock off the sides and the bottom, and then use slats to tack on the sides and bottom in order to admit plenty of ven tiiation. The birds stand on the bot tom and the fever cools more rapidly. The box should have supports about three feet in length.
 The birds should be taken from the nest as soon as they have the broody fever. This enables you to break them from sitting more rapidly, and when turned from the coop they will begin laying much earlier. This will also prevent many eggs from being spoiled.
 The hens should be fed when con- fined in the coop so as to keep them in laying condition.

 If, for no apparent reason. there is lack of thrift among your young chicks, perhaps the cause is lice, or worms in the intestines. Examine the chicks about the head Tor neau ice. Lice are more likely to be present on hen-raised chicks. If lice are found, grease the heads of the chicks with lard which is free from salt. Do not use lard and sulphur. Apply the lard with the finger, rubbing the head, neck. under the wings, and around the vent. The breeding hen should also be treated. One of the best methods of exterminating lice on the mature fowls is to rub a piece of blue Oint- ment, the size of pea, into the skin just beneath the vent, and also under each wing. Do not daub it on, but rub 1t well into the skin. as blue oint- men: is very poisonous and will Kill the hen if she gets some of it into her mouth.
 If no lice are found, carefully ex- anime the intestines of dead chick for intestinal parasites, such as tape worms or round worms. If worms of any kind are found. the chicks should be treated and removed to fresh ground where there are no worms in the soil. As long as the chicks re-

CLEAN OUT DRoPPINGs DAILY
Is Neeessary-Sawdust Quickly Absorbs Moisture.

The modern dropping board" ne- cessitates the use of some sort of ma terial under the perches so that the task of removing the droppings may be accomplished more easily and quick ly. says a writer in an exchange.
 Different poultry men use different materials. Some sprinkle a thin lay CT of sand or earth under the perches, while others use hay, chaff, leaves, sawdust or other such sub stances. Sawdust is about the best material that can be used when it can be obtained in sufficiently large quan- titles without difficulty. My expert ence has shown that this material quickly absorbs all moisture from the manure. and it is not chilling to the feet of the fowls, while, by its use, 1t is an easy matter to save the drop pings to use for fertilizing. as sawdust mixes well with the manures.
 No matter what material Is used. it, together with the accumulated droppings, should be swept out with a broom every few mornings When sawdust is used 1t is advisable to sprinkle it with water before sweep ing, in order to settle the dust. which. otherwise, will be found obnoxious to the person doing the sweeping.
 How often to clean out around the roOst Is a question that can be de- cisively answered by saying that the most successful poultry men clean out the most frequently. Many lead ing poultry farmers attend to this every day. Maybe this is a little oftener than necessary, but it is play inr, on inc safe side

HIDING PLACES OF INSECTS
Occasional Application of Some Insecticides.

The nests and perches in the chick enhouse should be kept from becoming the hiding and breeding places of yer min by occasional applications of in secticides like kerosene and crude car bolic acid; the hens themselves should be given opportunity for ire quent dust baths. By doing this, all vermin will be kept within bounds and will do no appreciable harm.
