EARMARKs OF GOOD LAYERS
ls Laying HeaviIy-Rules Laid
Down by Cornell Expert.

When you go out into the hen yard
day dinner, you naturally want to Sc
lect the ones that are poor layers.
There probably isn't any way of tell
ing In every case by hens looks
whether or not she is a good layer,
but the following rules laid down by
Professor Kent of Cornell are the re-
suit of a good deal of study and OBJ
servation. They win hold good In
most cases:
Yellow-legged birds quickly lay OF
the color in their shanks when they
are laying. A hen which Is laying
heavily almost loses the yellow color
out of her shanks. After melting the
yellow color returns quickly.
Examination of the ear lobe Is con-
sidered to be almost infallible. A
chalky white ear lobe indicates that
bird is laying heavily, whereas a
cream-colored one shows that the bird
is laying moderately, has just started,
or has just stopped. A milk-colored
ear lobe shows that the hen has laid
slightly or has stopped laying. A very
yellow or dark ear lobe indicates that
the hen has not laid at all.
1t is to be remembered that an ex-
tremely white ear lobe also may mean
very low vitality.
The more velvety the texture of the
comb of hen Is the better Is her
health, and it is almost certain sign
that she is laying heavily.
Out of 40 hens under observation at
Cornell, six with chalky-white ear lobes
showed that they had laid % eggs that
week, 16 eggs the previous week and
nine the week before that.
OF six other hens with creamy ear
lobes, four laid Is eggs that week and
three laid II the week before and three
more laid nine eggs the prior week.
Seven hens with yellow ear lobes
were examined and only one of them
had laid an egg that week and four the
week before.
Nine mems with very dark ear lobes
showed that they had not laid an egg
for weeks.

BOARD TO CATCH DR0PPINGS
Convenient Platform, Liked by Many
Breeders, Is Lowered and Raised
by Aid of PuIIeys.

Many breeders like q board plat
form under the roosts, to catch the
droppings. This keeps the floor clean,
and enables them to preserve the drop
pings in good shape. A convenient
board for droppings that is much fixed
by one breeder, is hinged at the north
wall, lowered and raised by pulleys,
and held by narrow chains hooked over
nails.
Every morning, the board is lowered
into low box, the width of the board,
which is wheeled from place to place
on casters. The boards are quickly
cleaned with hoe. Roosts are screwed
onto iron brackets fastened to the
boards. The roosts are frequently TAX
en- out and painted. Boards for Drop
pings should be of good lumber,
smooth, and free from knotholes where
mites might hide.

BLUE OINTMENT FOR vERMIN
One Application Will Keep Fowl Free
From Lice for Entire Season
Must Dust Often.

With many poultrymen the use Of
blue ointment as remedy for lice
is replacing the use of lice powder
and liquid lice killers. When lice
powder is used, the busting must be
very thorough, as the descendants of
any louise that escapes will soon re-
infest the hen. With lice powders at
least two dustings must be made ten
days apart.
On the other hand, when blue ONT
ment is used, but one application will
keep the fowl free of lice for an entire
season. The ointment is applied by
rubbing a small pellet into the feaths
ers around the vent, as all lice on the
fowl must make frequent visits to this
portion Of the hen in order to obtain
moisture.

LICE POWDER EASILY MADE
Few Gents Will Pay for Mixture That
VIII EffectuaIly Keep vermin
From the Fowls.

"Don't let the mites and lice eat up
the profits of your poultry flock when
a few cents worth of homemade lice
powder will free all fowls" says M. @.
Fitzpatrick, poultry expert of the agri-
cultural college extension service,
Ohio State university.
An effective homemade lice powder
is made as follows: Place two and
one-half pounds Of plaster of paris in
a pan. Then stir in three-fourths pint
of gasoline and one-fourth pint of
cresol or 90 per cent crude carbolic
acid until crumbly powder is formed.
Dust the fowls by sitting the pow
der in the feathers, between the legs,
under the wing and along the back.

Excitement Caused Death.

A fatality of uncommon occurrence
took place off Buchie (Scotland) har-
Dor some days ago, and the matter was
afterwards ventilated in court through
prosecution instituted against sol
der for attempted suicide. Many peo-
pie witnessed the affair, among others
lad of tender years named McWil-
'iams. An onlooker finally jumped in
and rescued the drowning soldier. al
though it was stated that the latter
resisted. McWilliams, however, be-
sane so worked up with excitement
as he viewed what was going on in
the water that his nervous system
gave way. He fell down in fit and
died on the spot. A peculiar fea-
ture of the matter is that the soldier
was saved and subsequently prose-
cuted as mentioned.

Irriuatlnu With Air.

In order to reduce the loss Of irri-
nshon water caused by evaporation
from open bitches. an Australian has
lately introduced into this country a
system Of underground irrigation by
pipes. which is said by writer in the
Illustrated World to effect great
saving. The water is pumped through
\ large pipe from which smaller per-
forated pipes lead it TO the area to be
irrigated. This method has been in
use for some time, but the Australian
has gone further and devised scheme
Tor supplying the water with such fer
tilizerS as the sell needs. Air is also
pumped through the pipes. L several
cases it has been found that puuplng
air about the roots promotes a vigor-
pus growth. 1t is said to have an ef-
feet similar to that Of allowing land
to Ne fallow, except that results are
obtained much quicker. The system
can also be used TO pump excessive
writer from the grour5. At suitable
lntayvals there are traps for catching
dirt which may get into the pipes and
