He was a trife too b%oisterous, also too
%exuberant and lively. Here was his
last days play before the Judge de-
cided to limit his activities. Hit a
t~en-year.old girl playmate over the
head with a gas pipe, poured acid on
n child's face, broke a broomstick over
his mothers head, chased rabbits be-
longing to playmates until they drop
ped dead, and perpetrated every trick
he could think of on neighbors' cats
and dogs. The little girl who was on
the receiving end of the gaspipe spent
several days in a hospital.
The playful" boys parents stated
that he was a "good and obedient
son." but the Judge failed to hear
them, and sent the eleven.year-old cut
up to the reformatory.

for eight years from the effects of ms.

Eight years ago a horse stepped on
the great toe Of his left foot. The toe
was amputated, then the toe next to it
and finally all the toes Of that foot.
To save his leg the foot was ampu-
tated at the ankle. Several months
later the leg was amputated at the
knee and then at the hip. Within a
year the right leg had to be removed at
the ankle.
Specialists tried to avoid another
operation, but with nc success. Jack
son was admitted to four hospitals and
was attended by some of the best sur
geons in the East. At last his right leg
was amputated at the hip, making the
seventeenth operation. This seemed to
provide a stop to the inroads of the
blood poisoning. But three weeks ago
surgeons told Jackson that to save his
life the four fingers of his right hand,
which had become infected, would
have to be removed. Despairing; Jack.

PREPARE HoU> Il WINTER
Fowls Withstand Cold Air Much Bet,
ter Than lmpure-ventilation Of
Much Importance.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of A%griculture.)
Hens can Withstand cold air much
better than impure air. Don't shut
the poultry house up tight at night to
Keep out the cold unless ventilation is
provided. Hens will thrive better-and
lay o eggs-if they have plenty OF
pure air; not draughts. 1t is as neces-
sary to fowls as clean water and good
food.
When hens are confined in badly
ventilated houses, as is sometimes the
case in cold weather, they lose vital
lty, produce fewer eggs, and often be-
come sick and stop laying. Good ven
tllation is needed also to keep the
house dry. In cold weather moisture
collects on the walls and roof in u
poorly ventilated house, making it very
uncomfortable for the poultry to live
In. When the temperature rises this
moisture tfickles down saturating the
air and making the litter on the floor
wet.
II n house is not o~vercrowded and
is lnsuiticiently ventilated for only Il
day in cold weather, no great harm is
lone. In an overcrowded house condi.
lions become insanitary in u few hours.
Even in a house properly stocked con.
ditlons ut the end of one day of i'm
pure air are n%oticeably bad and, unless
promptly corrected, grow steadily
worse.
Ventilation to provide pure air and
dryness in a poultry house is simply
Il matter of keeping doors and win
lows open as much as is necessary to
keep the walls dry. Few poultry keep
ers have any difficulty in this until the
temperature goes low enough to freeze
water in the house. Then the tendency
is to close doors and windows to keen
the house warm.
This is the right idea, subject to the
practical limitation that the house
must not be closed so tight that the
supply Of fresh air is insufficient, and
the circulation Of air is retarded to
such an extent that moisture collects
on the walls. The proper regulation
of ventilation insures pure air and dry
ness, and keeps the house as warm as
is practicable without the use of arti-
tcial heat, or special provision to alb
sorb an excess Of moisture. The adj
justment OF, doors and windows to pro-
vide the conditions required must be
learned by observation.
The general rule is to open doors
md windows as much as is necessary
to keep the house dry in cold weather,
and to keep them wide open when wa
ter in the house will not freeze.
Cheap cotton cloth and common bur-
lap are often used in some of the Win
dows of a poultry house in place Of
glass. Cotton cloth is to be preferred
Tor this purpose because it is cleaner
and admits more light When both
cloth and glass windows are used the
