acct up and they are off as soon
as Santa Claus is in his sleigh.
"And the sleigh has many bells and
they will jingle in the cold night, and
where there is no snow the reindeer
have fixed the sleigh so they can pull
it over the roofs and the towns and
the villages and anywhere at all.
"The jingling bells will sound all
over on Christmas eve. Most Of us
will be sound asleep and we will not
hear them, but somehow when we
wake up on Christmas morning we will
feel quite sure that we have heard
some lovely sounds in the night. We
will remember some sounds which
made our sleep very pleasant and very
lovely as though we had heard beau
tiful music-and we will have heard
the bells jingling on the sleigh Of
Santa Claus.
''Then the reindeer wear harnesses
with Christmas bells on them, and
they shake with excitement and the
bells Jingle all the time.
Eyes, the true news is that Santa
Claus is going to start off at the same
time as usual this year and that he is
going to all the homes he visited last
year and some more beside, and that
no one is going to be forgotten, no one
at all.
""Those are Santa Claus plans, and
when he is all through he plans, as
he always does, to go back to his home
and there to take out his magic tele-
scope and look right through it into
the windows of the homes where there
are children, and he will see their
smiles.
"And all of your smiles, you know,
are the thanks that Santa Claus re-
ceives."

HANG ONTO YEARLlNG FOWLS
Practice Of Selling Off Young Hens
in Fall Is Wasteful Habit of
Some Farmer&

One Of the most wasteful habits
that poultrymen ard farmers have
been guilty Of in the past has been
the practice of selling off the young
hens every fall, keeping only those
needed for the breeding pen the fol-
lowing season.
They then pin their hope and faith
On the uncertain qualities Of the pull
lets which they have raised, because
it has been thought that it is not
profitable to keep hens after their
pullet years. Happily, this has not
proved itself true in the numerous In
vestigations which have been made
into the matter by the experiment
stations and by practical poultrymen
who are attempting to evolve the ut
most in egg production in their flocks.

PLANS FOR CHRISTMAS.

"Have you written to Santa C1ausr'
asked Nick of Nancy.
II wrote this very day. said Nancy.
"And so did I, said Nick.
"Well," said daddy, "I'm glad to hear
1t, for 1t Is high time you both did.
Everyone is writing their Christmas
letters now. We're almost too busy
for stories. It's just nice to have
Christmas talks as we do every year,
and then it is always nice to hear of
what Santa Claus is doing up in his
work shop.
HE likes to have the boys and girls
know Of how he is working for them
and how his work for them is just like
play. And yet he likes to let them
know that sometimes he does have
to work so fast that he then especially
likes the cheering letters they write.
''He is never too busy to read their
letters. In fact Santa Claus is never
too busy to do anything he has to do
or to read anything he has to read.
sometimes he just has to work a
little faster. that's all.
"Well, when Christmas time comes
around" daddy went on, II just don't
think about anything but Christmas
and jingling bells and the snow and
the presents that are to come and the
stockings and the Christmas tree and
Santa's visit.
II forget about the usual evenings
of the year when I tell stories of ami
mals-true stories they are-and fairy
tales, too; tales of the FairyIand peo-
pie.
But now I like to think about the
real and true Christmas things, the
great joys that we have each year, at
this time of year, such real joys and
real pleasures.
And real stockings and real trees
and real presents" he added with a
laugh.
and I must tell you, as we're talk
ing Of letters to Santa, of some of his
plans for Christmas.
"He is going to start out in plenty
of time to give the presents to each
child. He won't give them himself and
he will go away before he is seen, but
he will leave them in the stockings

DUST BOX QUITE IMPORTANT
min by WaIlo.Vinu in Dust
Place In Sunlight.

Chickens never wash as many birds
do, but cleanse themselves of insects
by wallowing in dust. Where board
or cement floors are used In the chick
en- house, some means Of busting dur
ing the winter months should be pro-
vided. A dust box 8 feet by feet,
or feet by feet will be found large
enough In most instances, the United
States Department Of Agriculture sug-
gets, for flock Of SO or 60 fowls. 1t
should be placed where it can be
reached by sunlight during as much of
the day as possible.
Fine, light dry dust is best for the
box, but sandy loan is good. Road
dust is recommended by many, but it
is often hard to secure. Coal ashes
may be mixed with the soil if desired
to make them lighter.

There we're no vacant seats, but

Conditions.
such land does not drain readily, and
it is much more difficult to keep the
stock healthy, poultry specialists on
the government poultry farm have
found. Long stationary houses, or the
intensive system, saves steps, but it is
easier to keep the birds healthy and
to reproduce the stock under the col
ony system, where the birds are al
lowed FREQ range. Breeding stock
and especially growing chickens,
should have an abundance Of range,
while hens used solely for the pro-
duction of market eggs may be kept
on a very small area with good re-
suits.
The colony house system necessi-
tates placing the houses, holding about
100 hens, from 200 to $50 feet apart,
so that the stock wifi NOT kill the
grass. The colony system may be
adapted to severe winter conditions
by drawing the colony houses together
in a convenient place at the begin
ming Of winter, thus reducing the Ia
Dor during these months.
