WINTER CR0WDING is ERROR
Big Mistake to Put Too Many Hens
and PuIIets Together in One
House in Cold Weather.

A good many farm poultry raisers
make the mistake Of housing too many
hens and pullets together during cold
weather. Hens will lay as well If
Sarded and well cared for as If on
free range; but they must not be
crowded when they are confined.
IF the hens are being fed and forced
for eggs alone, get them into winter
quarters in their pens early in the fall
and do not change them about after
they have been located. Introducing
new hens into the laying pens always
causes more or less confusion, and
this decreases the number Of eggs
laid.

COLT NEGLECTED IN SPRING
No One Considers That He Should Sc
Gradually Changed Over From
Dry Winter Ration.

Consider the colt in the springtime
Maybe he is a yearling with a half
formed equine mind full Of curiosity
and wOnderment Every old horse on
the place is OFF In the fields some
where at work in daylight. His owner
neglects the colt. as much as he can
and have the yOungster live.
The half remembered green fields
and pastures of last year become green
once more. The colt has vague memo
ries of the taste of green things that
mingled On his taste-nerves with the
flavor Of mothers milk. From between
the cracks in the pOst-and-plank
fence that incloses his world he looks
upon the springing grass, marvels
and hungers. Part of his hunger is
plain hunger, part is memory, and
most of it IS instinct, but it is all
very real.
He is a lonely little hideful of in
stincts and cravings about to start his
second year. He is a bewildered or
plan Of the farm stalls and stables,
accustomed TO his corn and alfalfa,
and with all the troubles of horsedom's
life before him. About half the time
no one considers that he should be
gradually changed over from the dry
winter ration to the soft green sum-
mer ration, and when the change
comes it comes so quickly that there
is not q days time for that young
horses stomach to get used to 1t.

been getting ready for the change. II
they could not sense the spring In the
air, in any other way they might know
1t from the gradually increasing
amount of corn that is going in the
feed boxes. They are being worked a
little more and a little steadier than
they were while January's SHOWS still
covered the pastures. The colt, though,
goes his neglected way until some day
after the oats are in and every pillow
moldbOard on the place is like bur-
nished silver, then all at once some one
decides it is high time that the colt
was on the pasture.
On the pasture he goes. It may be
just enough of a pasture to keep life
within his hide, but he must get along
with an occasional sailing On sunny
Sunday mornings. The grass may be
thin and watery, tasteless compared
with that good alfalfa he has been

to the resources of the country, to-
gether with an enormously stimulated
production of all kinds of supplies, is
a road system which will not only
open up the virgin territories OF the
West and South, but which will quick
en- the pulse of trade in the most
cOngested districts of the East,
where the casual observer might be-
Heve that traffic has been fully deveI-
oped, but which close students say
could be geared up to a remarkable
extent through efficient use OF the
highways.
In standing by the creation Af a
federal road commission, the o1acials
of the body expressed their belief in
the feeling, now generally prevalent
throughout the United States among
road men, that the time has come
when transportation on the highways
is deserving of more substantial recog-
milton than that accorded it as a
bureau, which, while it has been as
efficient as the limitations of the law
has permitted, would be dignifed if
elevated to the rank of a commission,
and would make possible representa-
ton of five different districts OF the
United States with their diverse needs.
As for the future Of the highways
transport committee, the work already
done by the voluntary organizations
has opened such a vast field for re-
search in the economic life of the
country that it is believed this work
should be continued as a branch IN
der the proposed road commission by
salaried men who should be experts
in the field, and who would give all Of
their time to close development Of
the problems which the present COM
mittee has thus far only had time to
uncover.

DISTRIBUTE BUILDING COSTS
Proper Share of Expense for RepIac-
ing Old Buildings Should Be
Charged to Income.

A proper share of the cost for re-
placing old farm buildings should be
charged against the farm income each
year. Buildings may be constructed
to last for 100 years, or they may
stand only a third of that time If
the cost of replacement is not charged
into the yearly accounts the whole
bill will appear against the income for
a single year. Depreciation charges
for buildings, machinery, or other
farm equipment are merely a method
for distributing these costs over the
period of years in which the equip
ment is in actual use.

BEST TIME TO TRAIN COLTS
Mistake Not to Halter FoaIs and Teach
Them to Lead During Infancy
Means Less Trouble.

It is a mistake not to halter foals
and teach them to lead during infancy,
when it can be done with less trouble
than at any other time A few min
utes two or three times a week is suffi-
Gent, as they should be by no means
pulled about so as to make them per
spire, as there is then risk of their
taking cold. AS well as the halter
lessons the youngster should be taught
to eat dry food, which he viii soon do
If it is held to him or if allowed to
eat from the manger with his dam.

getting all winter long, but If he gets
thin and hard-bellied, then that must
be the colts fault and not because he
is not getting enough to eat. Is he not
on a pasture and is not a pasture sup
posed to be the very place for colts?
OF course, it stands to reason that
the change from the warm stable and
the regular corn and alfalfa to the
open pasture and the yellow-green,
thin, spring grass should be a grad
ual one. Still, no one is supposed to
use a great deal of reason in dealing
with boy, a pup or a colt.

In selecting the breed best suited for

taken into consideration, say poultry
specialists of the United States De-

does not pay to caponize small fowls.

Roup, one of the most disastrous

North Carolina were around Abe
