While the ideal arrangement for
pigeons is to have their house on the

pigeon keeping may be carried on
quite extensively in upper rooms. or
lofts, with or without open sair flys.
Many fiocks of pigeons are kept in
large cities in quarters provided for
them in the lofts or on the roofs of
buildings used for mercantile and
manufacturing purposes.
Space for Breeding.
A space six feet square, and high
enough for the attendant to stand
erect, will accommodate eight to ten
pairs of pigeons for squad breeding.
The birds mate and begin breeding
when six to seven months old. Two
eggs are laid by the hen. Then the
male shares with her the duty of in
cubation. The young hatch in about
seventeen days. At four weeks old,
average good squads will weigh about
three-quarters of pound each. Some
of the larger ones will weigh over q
pound at that age.

NOTE ALL FARM HAPPENINGS
Easy and They Become Valuable
When Memory Fails.


prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Simple accounts of the everyday
happenings on the farm will often be
found of great value. Every farmer
makes q note when a calf is born or
SOW farrows. Many do so mentally
only, but 1t is none the less q note. If
such notes are written down in a way
that makes reference to them easy,
they become of much use in supplying
needed Information when memory
fails. Notes recording other every
day happenings often prove useful.
Among these may be mentioned the
dates when animals are bred, men
hired or discharged, accidents occur,
pasture season begins and ends, first
and last frosts occur, incubators are
set, spring work begins and fall work
ends, seed time and harvest occur, etc.
Such notes as these when systemati-
cally recorded and constantly referred
to are Of much value. They enable
one to take proper precautions as to
feed and care Of animals prior to the
birth of young, thereby often saving
both mother and offspring. Disputes
with hired men as to wages are avoid
ed by recording when they are hired,
wage agreement, and all amounts sub
sequently paid them. Accident rec
or1s are Of value when seeking redress
for damages, pasture data when hgur-
ing on feed supply, and frost and other
weather data in planning the years
work.

new-seeded ground.
The remedy for this is to keep the
pigeons under control, and use the
young birds. except the few needed
to keep up the flock, as fast as ready
for the table. BY establishing the
flock of pigeons in an accessible place,
giving them little food occasionally
in their loft, and keeping them shut
in and feeding them when they could
damage new-seeded ground, farm
flock of pigeons can be made to con-
tribute substantially to the meat sup
ply, and still be prevented from doing
any serious damage.
