HOUSING OF GROWING CHICKS.

If one desires strong vigorous birds
in the fall, the proper housing OF
growing chicks is far more important
than generally realized. The fact
that the chicks need more house room
and ventilation as they grow older
is an essential factor. Very often
crowding in warm weather is a con-
tributing cause for roup, as it is fol-
lowed by night sweats, which in turn,
result in the chicks catching cold
when they go into the wet grass in
the morning. A constant recurrence
of this condition is conducive of deep
seated colds and finally roup. Crowd
ing also leads to cannibalism, stunts
growth, and very frequently kills the
weaker chicks. Chicks which are
eight weeks Of age at this time of
year do not need any artificial heat;
The chicks are only in the house or
shelter during the night, and all they
need is protection from wet weather
and marauders.
The prime essentials in the housing
Of growing chicks are fresh air, dry
ness, sunlight and space enough to
be comfortable. If the chicks are to
be put in a house formerly occupied
by hens or chicks, remove all cobwebs
take away the earth for six or eight
inches, fumigate and disinfect thor
oughly and refill with clean sand and
litter. 1t means little work, to be
sure, but it is time we'll spent and the
health of your chicks will more than
repay you. Remove the cockerels as
soon as they can be determined, as
this permits them to grow faster.
Another point that is important. Do
not move the pullets any more than
is absolutely necessary. 1t is a well
known fact that moving a pullet when
she is about to lay retards her early
laying as well as her growth; the
fright caused by frequent moving of
young stock interferes with their
proper digestion and assimilation of
food and thereby results in their slow
and uneven development. Practical
poultrymen realize this fact and very
often brood their late Matched chicks
in their next winters quarters. In
that way they gain two or three
weeks in their growth which means
early layers, sometimes directly COM
peting with the earlier Matched
chicks.
In case you have to build, no par
ticular type of house is peculiarly
adapted to all conditions. For a de-
tailed description, specifications. etc.,
of several different houses, write to
your county agent, or to the Exten-
sion Service of the University of Yer
mont, Burlington, VT, for free Farm
ers' Bulletins No. STA and No. 889.
When through using them, let your
neighbor read them.

putting in acre plots within the next
four weeks. Weighings have been
made on several alfalfa plots giving
yields from II to tons per acre to
the first cutting. When we consider
that one ton of alfalfa is nearly equal
in food value to a ton of bran, it
would seem that the little extra eff
fort and expense involved in growing
this crop is we'll repaid. Yields are
being secured on as many plots as
possible and more complete informa-
ton will be given in the next News
Letter. Remember these four essen
tials for success with alfalfa.
1. Lime.
2. Well drained land.
3. incubation of seed.
4. Northern grown seed, (prefer-
ably Grimm).

Savage
Dog in Yellowstone Park
Becomes Wild Again.

Livingston. April 12.-An in
stance Of n dogs return to the saw
age state OF his wolf ancestry came
to light in February In the Yellow-
stone National parl: when Scont
Anaerson's report OF n trip into the
Buffalo Fork country contained.
under the heading of predatory
animals killed, n mention OF one
mountain lion. one bobcat. four
coyotes, and an Airedale dog.
This dog, which probably wan
dered into the park from some
farm or settlement a few mites over
the border. had been Lying in the
Yellowstone i'm n Wild state for
several years. Whether or not he
fraterniZed with his cousins the
wolves and the coyotes can not be
known certainly. No doubt he
lived as they live at the expense Of
young and weaker deer and elk,
and smaller prey. Probably he
lived alone, against all animal kind
as they We're against him. There
are well authenticated instances Of
dogs thus returning to savage ma
ture. II speaks well for his tenac-
ity and strength that, alone Of his
kind In a country where all kinds Of
wild animals live still their natural
lives. he survived. He may have
been a dog of good pedigree.
Anyway, the dog had been seen
at intervals for several years and
was officially classed among tho
animals which, alone of all yell
lowstone's animals, are sought and
killed because destructive of the
harmless animals which make Of
this national park the best popu-
lated wild animal preserve in the
world.
