POULTRY
KEEPING POULTRY IN TOWNS
No Necessity for FIocks Becoming
Nuisance to Neighbors If Reason
able Care Is Taken.

Objection is frequently raised TO the
keeping of poultry in towns and cities
because of the odOr which may result
and also because of rOoSterS GROWING
particularly in the early morning. III
some cases city regulations nave Deen
formulated to prevent or to control
poultry keeping. Where there are city
regulations it is necessary to find out
their provisions and to conform 10
them. But there is no necessity for
the poultry flock to become nuisance
to neighbOrs, says tile United States
department of agriculture. If the drop
ping boards are cleaned daily and
the houses and yards are kept in a
reasonably clean condition there Will
be no annoying OdOrs.
The male bird need not be a nuIs-
ance Unless it is intended to hatch
chickens from the flock it is unneces-
sary to keep male bird, federal poul-
try specialists point out. The fact
that there is no male in the flock will
have absolutely no effect on the num-
Der of eggs laid by the hens. If it
is desired to mate the hens and to
hatch chicks the male bird should be
sold or eaten as soon as the Matching
season Is over. This is desirable not
only to eliminate noise but also to
save the feed that would be eaten by
the male, and for the reason that the
eggs produced after the male is dis

IMPROVING THE HOME YARD
LoW-Growing Shrubs at Walk Inter
sections and Corners Of the Lot
Should Be Provided.

A well-planted home yard with
shade trees Towering shrubs and per-
ennial flowers surely is more valuable
and more enjoyable than barren, un-
slightly yard of weeds, ashes, tin cans
and rubbish. Perhaps the principal
reason why we find so many poorly i'm
proved home yards is because
lack of knowledge along these lines is
everywhere apparent.
A well-planted home yard should
provide for the following ornamental
features: The yard should be Joined
to the street by the planting of low
growing shrubs at the walk intersec-
tons and at the corners of the lot
along the sidewalk.
These should all be lowgrowing
shrubs such as Thunberg berries. snow
berries, Japan ounce, rusa rugosa and
golden bell. These when planted in
groups. from three to five feet apart,
will give an informal treatment, and
where every home along the street
is planted in this way, the entire
street is given a boulevard appearance.
If formal effect is desired along
the sidewalk, the treatment calls for
the planting of q hedge. For this pur-
pose the Ibota privet, white mulberry,
ThunderbOrg barberry or honeysuckle
marraiwii should be used.

little land of rock and lakes and birch
trees, in the latitude of the southern
end OF Greenland, writes Arthur Ruhl

American city so consistently clean
and well built. They post no bills in
Helsingfors. They tie them around
posts with strings, and when they
have served their purpose they disap-
pear, strings and all. Every morning
there is market on the broad quay
at the end of the esplanade; fish,
flowers, meat and vesetables-even
Oregon apples, which cOntrive, in spite
of distance and almost prohibitive
rates of exchange, to cross the six
tieth parallel. A few minutes after
noon you would never know a market

on the hose, and presently the quay
Is as clean as q tennis court.

A trap nest is a laying nest so ar
ranged that after q hen enters it she
IS confined until after released by the
attendant.
When possible 1t is advisable to
trap nest the layers for the following
reasons:
1. To tame the birds, thereby tend
Ing toward increased egg production.
2. To furnish definite knowledge
concerning traits and habits of indI-
vlduals.
3. To furnish the only satisfactory
basis for utility or other breeding.

Productive characterization.

Any back yard at all can be made
both attractive and productive.
Grapevines make Il good porch trel-
lis when space is not available for an
arbor. A high fence or back porch
may be used as trellis for blackberry
plants. In q decorative border few
clumps of the brilliant red giant rhu-
barb will not look out of place. AS
for hedges which will be both decora-
tive and highly productive, no plants
of useful variety will be more sat
isfactOry than raspberries, gooseber-
ries and currants. They are hardy,
will take little care and will supply
fruit for each season.
