To Reduce Number Of Drugs.

It is practically impossible for the
average physician to famiiarize him
self with the four thousand or five
thousand drugs and drug preparations
in everyday use in this country The
number of such substances also mill
tates against their intelligent use by
the practic!ng physician and their cor.
rect preparation and dispensing by
pharmacists. In order to meet this sit
uation, committee Of the American
Medical association some time ago
drew up list of about four hundred
and fifty drugs and preparations, Sc
lected on account OF their wide use
with a view to concentrating the attcn
ton Of everybody concerned upon
these important medicines. According
TO the public health reports. revi-
sion OF this list has just been under
taken, and criticism of the list is now
constituted is sought by the American
Medical association.

HAVE CLEAN NEST MATERIAL
Percentage Of Dirty or Soiied Eggs
May Be Materially Reduced by
Proper Management.

Poultry keepers may easily reduce
the percentage of dirty or soiled eggs.
and losses entailed to insignificant
figures. First, an ample number OF
nests is. Of course. necessary. but an
ample number means no more. than.
and probably not as many as. are usu-
ally directed by poultry writer's. Lay
Ing houses are, as a rule, provided
with sufficient number, but where
the keeper falls down is in falling to
supply enough nesting material and
floor litter
Obviously the nesting material must
be clean. or the eggs become soiled by
contact. and it must be sufficient in
quantity. or the eggs are often broken
by dropping upon the hard floor of the
nest
In houses where the dropping boards
are above the nests, and the custom
Is to sand the boards. small stones
often drop into the nest and breakage
results when newly-laid eggs fall upon
them. The condition OF nests should
be noticed daily. and the nesting ma.
teral replenished when necessary.
Plenty of nesting material prevents
breakage and insures clean eggs
An ample and clean litter on the
floor is also very essential when an
AL clean product is sought. Particu-
larly is this true when the hens are
allowed outdoors during wet weather.
The litter acts as food mat for the
hens on their way to the nests.
Clean eggs bring better prices than
dirty ones.

VENTILATION FOR HENHOUSE
ly Healthy Fowls Dropping Dead
Off Their Roosts.

It has been proved by experiments
that impurities given Off from the
lungs of one animal are much more
poisonous to another animal than they
are to the animal giving them off.
You can prove this for your own
satisfaction. il you care to. Put a
mouse in self-sealing fruit jar and
make the cover tight. In few min
utes he will begin to show signs Of
sufocation. Then without admitting
any more fresh air than you can help,
introduce a second mouse into the
jar. This second mouse will die be-
fore the first one. though he was fresh
when the first one was nearly suffo-
Gated. The reason for this Is that the
second mouse did not die Of suffoca-
ton. but was killed by the poison
given off from the lungs of the first
one.
1t ia entirely possible that this is
the reason why so many hens in ap-
parently good physical thrift drop
dead OF the roost. The ventilation
Is poor and the birds become poisoned
by the gases from the lungs Of their
porchmat00.
