BEST HOUSES FOR CHICKENS
One Subject on Which Successful
Poultrymen Aoree-fresh Air and
Sunshine Are Essential.

The most successful poultrymen we
have today differ point blank on al
most any subject. il we except that of
housing. On this point they will agree.
Any kind of house will answer the
purpose, so long as it provides ade-
quate room, sunshine and an abun-
dance of fresh air SO admitted that
no draft strikes the inmates.
Given a cool. dry house, your fowls
are reasonably safe; warm. damp
house and you have a roup producer.
Repeated experiments have proved
that fowls are more nearly in their
natural environment when housed in
dry. cold, fresh-air houses, than when
in artificially heated ones. The egg
production is much better in the for
mer kind. In the matter of Matching
and brooding, 1t has been found that
the eggs hatch much better, and the
chicks are stronger, from stock housed
in the open-air houses. Many times
when the chicks do not escape the

was caused by the breeders becoming

well. with plenty of succulent green
stuff like cabbage, with grit, lime,
charcoal, and plenty of pure water at

but making themselves useful, they
will produce the eggs.
The reason the pullets on the farm
lay SO few eggs in fall and winter, and
put off regular laying until often late
spring, is due to letting them run with
the flock and giving no extra feed
ing or warm room to themselves. This
last is the only way to get winter eggs
from the early spring pullets.

There's rich living in garbage"

Santa Barbara. Cal. He has for 20
years lived in little cave on the

When the officers went out to in

a corner Of the cave sleeping the
morning away. The place was lit

Swift greeted his visitors cordially and
explained to them his mode of life
and the reason therefor.
''Civilization," he said. lis only an.
other evidence of how slavery can be
lifted up and made possibly more re-
fined outwardly. The man who works
for his living is nothing more or less
than asslave. He is a slave to the
within OF his employer. who may dis
charge him just like that" and the
negro snapped his finger.
IT a man has an income today he
may not have one tomorrow. The
consequence Is that both the man who
tolls for an employer and the man who
draws his income are slaves to worry.
neither OF them knowing the peace
and happiness that comes with the
quiet life. Men would live forever II
it we're not for worry. That's the
most subtle destroyer the human fam
fly is prey to. for it leads to all other
ailments whose windup Is death.
Here am living contented. No
one can demand rent or taxes. and
find my living in the garbage on the
town dump. many fine morsels being
left in cans and otherwise thrown
away. There's rich living in garbage"
The mans talk was rational, though
strange, and his conduct was quiet.
Therefore, the officers left him to his
| lonely life.
There is a whole lot Of genuine
truth in his philosophy" said the
sheriff, Men die from worry and
what comes in its train. and the race
will die more rapidly as 1t advances
in civilization, for the burden Of tax
