To get good results from a flock Of
poultry during the winter all houses
and coOps should be in good condi-
tion. only healthy fowls placed in
these buildings, and good care given
to the poultry. As 1t takes about two
weeks for hens or pullets to settle
down to their new quarters they
should be moved early. The moving
should be done before they begin to
lay, for shift after egg production
begins may set them back for month
to six weeks. Moving pullets around
from one house to another is the best
means of holding back egg production
If they are developing too fast. The
United States Department of Agricul-
ture points out that it is highly de-
sirable to bring the pullets in, from
the range before they begin to lay.
Prepare Houses for the Winter.
The houses should be thoroughly
cleaned, disinfected, and made tight
for the winter. 1t is much easier to
do this work while they are empty
than after they are filled with fowls.
If the house has a dirt floor, it is well
to remove the top 3 or inches and
replace this with dry gravel or sand.
II it has a cement or wooden floor,
remove all litter and dirt and put in
4 or inches of fresh straw or litter.
Remove the rOOsts and scrape the
ilrODDinr boa rdS wef.inp them down If
necessary to loosen refuse which has
caked and dried on. Sweep the walls
and ceiling with broom, and Glenn out

now ready to be disinfected. Mix up

fectant. Put peck or more Of fresh
burned lime In Il tub or barrel and
pour on it enough water to start slak-
Ing. Stir occasionally and add more
water to prevent burning. Keep the
vessel covered with an old sack to re-
tain the heat. After the lime Is thor
oughly slaked dilute it to the proper
consistency and strain it II 1t is to be
applied with Il spray pump. Add
quart Of crude cnrbolic acid to each

Make Houses Free From Drafts.
Be sure that the house Is tight on

tains in the front Of the house or leave
a window partly open. even on the
coolest nights, to allow some ventila-
ton in the house. Fowls will stand
considerable exposure to cold air pro-
vided it Is dry, and ventilation will
keep the air in the house dry.
Before the pullets are mixed with
the older fowls be sure that the hens
are banded or that the web Of the foot
Is punched in some way, SO that you
can distinguish between the pullets and
the hens. This plan permits the older
stock to be culled out whenever de-
sirable, and the young hens to be kept
Tor further laying. For egg produc-
ton do not keep hens over two years,
but some Of the best hens may be kept
for breeders until three or four years
