UNSAFE SOURCES OF
FARM WATER SUPPLY
Streams, Ponds, bitches and
Reservoirs Unsatisfactory.
Temperature 10 Not Pleasing and
Presence of More or Less PoIlut-
Ing Matter Is Certain-Some
Hints on Ice Supply.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Streams, ponds, irrigation bitches
and small open reservoirs are unsatis-
factory and unsafe sources of farm
water supply. The subject is consid-
cred In Farmers Bulletin GAL, water
Systems for Farm Homes" recently
issued by the United States department
of agriculture.
The temperature of such water sell
dom Is satisfactory. and the presence
of more or less polluting matter is GER
tain. Often the carcasses Of farm ami
mails are found therein. In thousands
of cases the domestic supply is taken
directly from irrigation bitches. In
other instances a cistern, often without
a filter, Is filled at such times as the
ditch water runs clearest. Often open
reservoirs are necessary to collect and
store rainfall for the use of stock, and
occasionally they are used as sources
of domestic water and ice supplies.
Cnder favorable conditions, where
the basin is large and deep no feet or
more), the bottom free of mud, muck,
or other organic matter, the surround
| ings clean, and the circulation good,
| the quality of surface water may i'm
prove by long storage. However, these
conditions are seldom realized on the
farm, and the amount of Improvement
or publication is never certain.
The only safe course is to avoid
drinking water from any surface source
unless such water has been purified
by filtration or sterilized by boiling or
by chemicals. Prudence dictates, also,
that ice gathered from shallow, I'M
clean sources should not be brought in
contact with food and drinking water
1t is particularly important to reject
snow ice and the first inch or so of
clear ice formed.-From Farmers Bull

POULTRY NOTES

J If the surplus cockercls, not needed
for the breeding flock next spring,
have not yet been marketed, dispose
/ of them now; also market the old
hens as soon as they stop laying.
Feed to produce one dozen eggs
cost 10 cents with pullets, Id cents
with 2-year-old hens, and 10 cents
with 3-year-old hens, in 3-year feed
ing test conducted by poultrymen of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. These were the cost fig
ures of feed at the time of the ex
pertinent which began in 1912, and
must be corrected to present prices.
Feed the grain in a deep litter on
the floor and make the hens exercise
for it. The mash may be fed either
wet or dry, and should be so regulat-
cd that the fowls will get about equal
/ parts of mash and of the scratch
grains. 1t is necessary to give the
fowls plenty to eat to get good re-
suits, but the birds should always be
eager for each feed. In cold weather

grains in the morning and two-thirds
at night In this way the hens arc
/ forced to exercise more than if they
receive all the grain they desire at the
morning feed.
Examine the pullets and hens for
lice, and dust thoroughly with a good
insect powder or apply mixture OF
two parts of vaseline and one part of
mercurial or blue ointment, about the
size of a pea, 1 inch below the vent
of the bird, rubbing the mixture light
" on the skin. An application of this
ointment two or three times year
will keep the fowls free from lice.
| Where insect powder is used, it should
be applied three or four times year,
or oftener if the fowls become infest-
ed. Provide a small box in the house
partly filled with dry road dust or
fine dirt in which the hens may dust,
thus helping to keep themselves free
from lice.

and front rail of the nest. If wire is
used on top of the nest, an equal
number of square feet of u inch
lumber can be substracted from the
amount stated: Nail the top, back,
and bottom to the ends and parti-
tons, insert the 3-inch strips in the
nests, and make the guard, mailing it
to the left side of the nest. Bore
a hole in the catch large enough so
that it will move freely when screwed
into position on the side, and use
a washer on both sides of the catch.
COMPLETING THE NEST
This catch should be made of hard
wood so that it will not wear readily
around the screw which holds it in
place. The catch is made of material
1-2 inch thick and is ~ inches wide
at the upper end and 1 inch wide at
the lower end. Place screw at the
lower edge of the catch to stop it
when set so that the catch will just
hold the door.
Make the doors of rs inch materi-
al, 2 inches by inches, and cut
triangular notch in the center inch
es wide. Put two screw eyes in the
top of the door and bore holes in the
front of the nests 2 inches below the
top Inside measurement, through
which a 3-16 inch wire is run to
support the doors. Attach narrow
strip to the front Of the nests for
the hens to jump upon when ente :
ing the nests. Place button or block
of wood on the front of each parti-
ton to hold the door when tie ne5l
is closed. If the nests are to be plac-
cd directly below the dropping
board, wire top should be used OIL
the nest except for Il inch strip
of wood on the front edge of the top
to stiffen the nest
