BEST POULTRY HOUSE FLOOR
Each Has Its Advantages and Disad-
vantages and All Should Be Care
fully Considered.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
In making the floor of the poultry
house several things must be taken
into consideration. Where the soil on
which the house is constructed is light
and we'll drained, earth floors are salts
factory and economical. Where the
soil is heavy and drainage is not good,
as is usually the case when it contains
much clay, floors made of wood or &C.
ment are generally preferred. Each
kind of floor has its advantages and
disadvantages, and it is only after the
consideration of all types should a
poultry keeper make his selection.
A floor Of earth needs to be renewed
at least once year. If the droppings
that fall upon the floor are carefully
removed at frequent, regular intervals,
much of the earth is removed with
them. If the regular cleaning of the
floor is superficial, the earth of the
floor to depth of several inches be-
comes so mixed with droppings that its
condition is very insanitary.
When the poultry keeper has gar
den, the manure obtained by removing
the earth floor of the poultry house will
compensate for the labor of renewing
the floor, and the new earth required
can be taken from convenient spot
on his own land. When the poultry
keeper must pay some one else to
take away the old earth and bring in
new, the cost will in a few years ex-
coed the cost of a cement floor.
The principal fault of a cement floor
is that it is likely to be cold and damp.
These conditions may be corrected by
covering the floor to a depth of an
inch or two with dry earth or sand,
using over this scratching litter of
straw or shavings. Floors so treated
require as much routine work to keep
them in good order as earth floors, but
the supply of clean earth required is
much less and the work of annual rem
ovation is eliminated.
Floors of wood are not now much
used in poultry houses except when the
space under the floor is high enough to
be occupied by poultrys A wooden
floor close to the ground soon rots,
while any space under floor not high
enough to be used for poultry makes
harbor for rats and other vermin.
The wooden floor Of a poultry house
should have a light coating of dry
earth, sand, chaff or similar material,
to prevent the droppings of the birds
from sticking to and saturating the
boards.
