ing 10000 square feet of floor space,

the regimental files.
The record of each man will con-
tain the name and address of his near

The war department also will under
take to give relatives reports of mill

IDEAL HOUSE FOR CHICKENS
Should Be Well Ventilated and Free
From Drafts-First Item Is of
Greatest Importance.

The ideal winter poultry house is
dry. free from drafts, and well venti-
lated. Proper ventilation does not
r00an sacrificing warmth or comfort
in properly designed house.
The importance Of good ventilation
cannot be overestlmated. Poor venti-
lation soon results in decrease in
the egg supply, and in disease in the
flock.
