 Many are wondering why Billy Compton is building that new bung- allow out on the Mahan ranch. Their curiosity is aroused all the more by the fact that he seems to be in very much of hurry to get it done, and that whenever during the last few weeks he has received letter from Greeley, Colo, he has added vim to his home-building operations. It may be that the mystery will be cleared up within short time.

DIR. ROY SCANLON, Veterinary Surgeon
 Flagstaff, Ariz.

Much of the damage caused by for est fires would be prevented if people would make it habit to investigate whenever they see smoke where it shouldn't be. What would probably have been a very extensive fire was recently put out near the Mormon Lake road below Lake Mary by Arthur Foster, his father, J F. Foster, and A. G. Woods, of Jerome Junction, who were returning with their wives from Mormon Lake. They saw smoke on the mountainside, investigated, and found a fire that had burned over about an acre, which, by quick work, they put out. It had evidently been started by a Mexican woman throwing lighted match or burning cigarette stump on the ground.

PROPERLY HOUSED HEN
PRODUCES MORE EGGS.

The hen that is properly housed
during the coming winter months will
be more apto to produce a good sup
ply of the valuable winter eggs than
the hen that is poorly housed To
give poultry the proper protection
house need not be warm but should
be free from drafts, have plenty of
sunlight and ventilation and be dry,
according to j. H. Bardsley, agent in
poultry and Animal Husbandry De-
partment, University of Kentucky.
The shed roof type of house which
is common in Kentucky is usually too
shallow and poorly ventilated in ad-
dition to the fact that opening the
front OF such house means a draft
on the birds, This condition can be
remedied in these houses by removing
the front and converting 1t into
half monitor type house by erecting a
"leanto." For the best results the
house should measure from 16 to 20
feet fro mthe front to back and should
face the SOUTH All ventilation should
come from this side and should be ad-
mitted through one large opening
rather than several small ones such
as cracks or holes between the boards.
This opening should be covered with
a canvass covering which may be let
down during a stormy day or cold
night. One square foot of opening
should be provided for each ten
square feet of floor space To prevent
crowding In the house. at least four
squire feet Of floor space should be
allowed for each bird.
To prevent the birds from crowding
on the roosts, these together with the
boards for the droppings, should be
placed at the back Of the house and
should be level rather than inclined.
II the latter plan Is used the birds
will fight to get to the top Of the roost
and as rsult the weaker birds will
be forced to the bottom where the.
Temperature Is the lowest. Ten
inches should be allowed on the roost
for each bihrd and fourteen inches be-
tween roosts. The roosts should not
be built too high above the ground
since the birds will injure their feet
in jumping down which may result
in a condition known as humble
foot"
A concrete floor make sa satisfac-
tory one for the fowls IL 1t Is built
six to eight inches above the outside
level and cinders or gravel used under
it to keep 1t dry. II board floor is
used II should be built one to one and
one-half feet off the ground. A dirt

THOROUGH COOLING OF PORK
ESSENTIAL In CURING MEAT.

With the approach of cold weather
and the butchering season on the
farm, farmers should be sure that
meat which is to be cured has been
thoroughly cooled before the pork is
sailed This Is one Of the most essen
tial factors in the successful curing of
pork on the farm, according to Prof.
e. J. MILFORD Of the Aniaml Husband
ry Department Of the College Of Agri-
culture. University Of Kentucky. In
addition to this suggestion several
others have been made by the depart
ment where extensive experiments In
the home killing and curing Of meats
have been carried on for some time.
Although II Is q common practice to
knock or shoot the hog In the head In
killing, this method has been found
to be inferior since the animal does
not bleed out thoroughly and as a

consequence a large amount of blood
Is left in tn ebody which effects the
quality of meat and decreases its
keeping properties. A better method
of killing the animal is to insert the
knife about one inch in front of the
adams Apple in line with the back
bone and then stick toward the tail
only far enough back to sever the two
arteries that cross in the neck. The
fact that this method allows the heart
to pump the blood out of the body has
made it better method than that of
sticking the animal in the heart. If
the animal is hung up before the
sticking the blood will drain, out Of
the body in nose satisfactory man
ner, but the sticking may be done
while the hog is on the ground.
After the intestines have been re-
moved the carcass should be hung
where it will cool out thoroughly. If
the nights are extremely cool the car
cass should be covered with blanket
or similar covering to prevent freez-
ing. The meat may be blocked out
after the animal has been slaughtered
eight or ten hours. At least "a hours
should be allowed before the salt is
applied to the meat If loss is to be
prevented Plenty or salt should be
used to cover the meat thoroughly and
fill all the crevises. No waste is ex
perienced ma liberal use Of the salt
since it may afterwards be fed to
livestock. If the brine cure is used
care should be taken to see that no
part of the meat Is exposed.

CLUB GIRLS WILL GIVE
PRODUCTS OF OWN WORK.

Products made by girls who are
members of Home Demonstration
Clubs in Kentucky will be much in
evidence around school and home
Christmas trees during the coming
holiday season if the work which
these young ladies have done during
the summer is to be any indication of
what they are going to do in the role
of Santa Claus. In one vounty of the
state many of the 200 girls who are
members of the first year sewing club
are planning to surprise their house,
keeping friends with holders we'll
made out of pretty bits of Bingham
and other material and very useful for
picking up hot kettles and irons while
members of various other Hone DEM
onstration clubs over the state will
give beautifully hemmed tea-towels
made either from flour sacks which
have been well-washed and ironed or
from material bought for that pur-
pose. Some sewing club members
have been busy making handkerchiefs
after learning to hem on the dish
towels.
Many members of summer canning
clubs have decided that they can
please their friends more by giving
them can or par of nicely packed
fruit or vegetables or a glass of jelly
than by giving something which they
could buy In the store. Such htings
as a jar of strawberries or cherries
are being prepared in large numbers
by the girls as Christmas presents to
their friends and some of the young
workers have even wrapped such
things as a can of tomatoes or beans
in a manner to make them look dainty
and attractive.
Another thing which many OF the
club members will do during the holi-
day season will be to take some
article to sick or elderly persons who
especially need 1t. Many of the girls
are planning to take glass of pelly
or some suitable food which they
learned to make in their club work,
accordingt to Miss Margaret White

College of Agriculture, University Of
Kentucky. The work in each county
is under the direction of the Home
Demonstration Agent and many Of
these have been busy for weeks help

Costs the Same as

M. C. RUSSELL CO.
CANADA WELL
FIXED In WHEAT.

Ottawa, Ont = If Canada's entire
wheat crop of 2S9 $4,000 bushels were
sacked and the sacks were laid end to
end, 1t would reach twice around the
earth at the equator. There would be
enough sacks to make eighteen con-
tinuous rows stretching from Mon
treal to Vancouver. in highway of
wheat sufficiently wide for an auto
mobile to travel upon.
This computation is based upon fig
ures given out by the Canadian de-
partment of agriculture which show
that 100,00O,000 bushels of the crop
will be required at home to feed the
Canadian people and for seed pur-
poses. This will leace 1000 900
bushels, which is enough to furnish
over 25,OOO,OOO people with bread for
one year.
More than two bushels of oats will
be threshed for every bushel of wheat,
according to the same government au-
thority. The oats crop is estimated at
556,OOO,0OO, which is the largest in the
history Of Canada and about 100000
bushels more than the previous record
crop Of 1915.
The production of barley throughout
Canada is 64,275,OOO bushels as COM
pared with $685. 900 bushels in 1919.
