PREPARE FLOCK
I. NOW ||llII. FOR WINTER
Fall Months the Time to See to
Proper Housing and Health
Of Fowls,
LOOK TO THE POULTRY HOUSE
Dryness and Proper Ventilation Two
z Requisites for the Comfort and
Health Of Birds-How to
Pick Winter Layers.

With the arrival of the fall months
special attention should be given to
the management Of the farm poultry
flock. especially with regard to the
housing and health. of the fowls. At
this season Of the year when the days
are growing shorter and the nights
longer. the fowls naturally spend more
time In their quarters than during the
summer, consequently more attention
should be given to the cleanliness Of
the poultry house. and the droppings
should be removed more frequently.
Since the fowls now spend more time
In the poultry house, care should be
taken to see that they are not crowd
ed. Frequently the crowding of chick
ems has decided detrimental effect
on their health and Outlines it mate
rallies into an epidemic of roup or
some other disease throughout the
flock. To prevent such condition
and to add to their comfort, the birds
should be thinned out SO us to allow
them three to four square feet Of floor
space per bird. depending upon the
size Of the fowls and on the length
Of time they are confined to the house,
as Influenced by the arrival of winter.
For example, home with a floor
space Of II by 20 feet provides sufi-
Gent space for about seventy fowls
Of the general purpose breeds. such
as the Barred Plymouth Rocks, or
about ninety fowls Of the Mediterran-
can or smaller breeds, such as the
Leahorns. r.e ..-.
As a general preventive against dis
ease, such. as. roup. ETC.. poultry houses
should be well ventilated but free from
drafts; that is, the backs and sides
should be tight, allowing the ventila-
ton to come from the front Of the
building. An inspection as to the con-
dftion of the roof may lead to the dis
covery Of leaks, which II repaired in
time will insure a dry house for the
fowls during the winter. Dryness az
wen as ventilation is very important
as influencing the health Of the fowls.
II is a good policy at this season Of
the year to remove the dirt from
houses having earthen floors to the
depth of about six inches and fill in
with fresh earth. Such practices ms
these not only embrace good manage
ment but add to the general health
and comfort of the fowls.
