"Hen.H Housing Helps"

Willard c. Sisson. Instructor in Poul
try Husbandry. Col Of Agri.
The time is now at hand when
poultry is no longer considered a
necessary evil upon the farm. Most
farmers now consider poultry a very
profitable side-line in any farming
business. With realization Of its
raluc comes the realization that in
order to make it profitable poultry
must be properly housed. Proper
housing does not necessarily imply
elaborate or expensive buildings,
but a few very important essentials
must be borne constantly in mind by
the poultry keeper:
Freedom from moisture, abundance
OF sunlight. plenty of room, protec-
ton from excessive heat and cold.
ventilation and sanitation, The
damp. cold house saps the vitality
OF the fowls, lowers production and
aids the spread Of disease. The hen
can eliminate moisture from the
body only through the respiratory
organs. A damp. cold atmosphere
causes the fowl to be uncomfortable,
breathe rapidly. pant. and finally to
become completely exhausted Fowls
weakened or in an exhausted con-
dition are easily susceptible to dis
ease. Sunlight Is a good germicide,
helps 70 keep the house dry and
warm. and therefore helps to ap-
proximate spring conditions. Pro-
vision should be made so that the
sunlight will strike all parts Of the
floor of the house at some time dur.
ing the day.
A hen too closely confined soon be-
comes restless and uneasy. Rest
lessness results in discomfort and
the development Of such vices az
egg eating, feather -p,lliing and
cannibalism. There should be plenty
Of room in the house for PROPER ex-
ercise, not less than four square feet
per bird in flocks Of less than 100.
Sudden changes Of temperature low
er production. II is therefore neces-
sary to protect the poultry house
from north winds. This may be ac-
complished by locating it in the lee
Of another farm building, an Or
chard. or a row OF trees. Shade
should be provided for the fowls in
hot weather. Adequate ventilation
helps to keep the house free from
moisture. Plenty of ventilation
without drafts keeps the fowls
healthy and vigorous. When fowls
are allowed to rOost in q draft they
catch cold easily.

GROWN JEWELS OF PRINCESS OF
 0LDEN TIMES

2 New York, Jan. 21.---Crown jewels of the Princess Sat-Hathor-Iunut, daughter of Senuseret, who ruled Egypt Aooo years before the time of Christ, and which, are on exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, ap- parently have set a new fashion in necklaces, brooches and rings for those who patronize Fifth avenue shops.
 The collection now on display was found in the tomb of the ancient roy alty which was unearthed by Profes- sor W. M. Flinders Petrie in 1914. AL though only one blue bead remained on the sarcophagus as 8, reminder of the Egyptian kings daughter, yet the jewel casket and contents inside were found intact. It was recently pur- chased by the museum for 8 large sum.
 Among the costly baub1es of the Princess are shining pectorals of the deepest lapis lazuli and dainty a.muIets of dark carnelian popular in the years now lost in misty past Her favorite amethyst necklaces as well as smaller jewel cases and un- gent jars are narvels of artistry and skilled workmanship.
 One cartouche containing the mama of Sat-Hathor-Iunut's father and, ap- parentty a gift from the King to his daughter, might have been worn as q brooch It consists of symboFical figures of two birds standing on a hieroglyphic base. Over the birds heads are cobra de capel]os, or hood ed serpents whose coils form a frame for a scarab or sacred beetle. Below them is the figure of a man kneeIins as If in worship.
