WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Twenty
S,ars ago Washington society would
have stood aghast at the furry OF So
eisl activity during the Lenten season,
hut not so to-day. Every one seems in
brsathless haste to rush in and out OF
churches, from the prayer cushion to
tba lunch, tea or card table, while
dancing is the vogue. Indeed, the first
,vo days of Lent only served as a rest
,renaratory to a new onslaught of So
sisl activity. There have been some ex-
ceptions, however, and more con-
yinciug than anything else of the ear
pestness of womankind are the Thurs
day morning Bible class meetings Mrs.
Seiden Palmer Spencer, wife of Senator
Snencer, of Missouri, holds in the small
ballroom OF the New Willard every
Thursday morning. Mrs. Spencer is
deep student of theology, and one of
her most devout students at the classes

ing, who this year heads her list of
patronesses. On this list with Mrs.
Harding are Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall,
Mrs. Frederick H. Gillett, Mrs. Mahlon
Pitney, Mrs. Stephen B. Elkins, Mrs

6. Cr0wding should be avoided, a,
it Is one Of the surest ways Of reduc
ing the vitality Of the fowls and is al
most sure to result In colds, roup OF
some other diseased condition. Bes
| results are obtained where four square
feet of floor space Is allowed per bird
In larger houses, or where small birds
are kept, the space can be somewha,
reduced, but crowding is dangerous.
z. Interior equipment and it's ar
rangement is important from a stand
point of convenience, efficiency and
labor involved.
(a) Roosts placed on a level, OF
nearly so, will tend to reduce crowding
at night, and makes lower ceiling pos.
sible; which reduces the cost of con.
struction and makes your house much
warmer.
(b) A tight dropping board at the
back side Of the house, 30 inches above
the floor and extending out into the
house four feet, will allow for three
roosts which should be at least G
inches above the dropping board and
so arranged that they may be easily
removed when cleaning dropping board.
This arrangement means q full floor
space for scratching cleaner floor,
greater sanitation, cleaner fowls,
cleaner nests, and cleaner eggs. Allow
at least 4 inches roosting space for
Leghorns and 6 inches for larger birds.
(c) Nests may be placed against the
wall or under the rOosts and should be
clean at all times. 1t is usually well
to so arrange them that the hens can
enter from the rear and make them
more secluded, as hen likes dark
nest where she will be undisturbed.
One nest for each four to six hens is
usually sufficient, unless trap nests
are used, when more will be needed.
(d) Water and feed dishes should be
clean at all times. Clean water or
other drink, and clean feed will do
much to prevent disease. If the water
dish is placed on a platform Is to 18
inches off the floor it will be much
easier to keep clean and allows full
free floor space. The same thing holds
true With feed hoppers for dry mash,
grits and oyster shell. With the entire
floor space free for clean, dry straw
6 to 8 inches deep, in which to feed
grain feeds, and afford exercise for
your hens and pullets, the house ar
rangements are completed, and the win
ter quarters are ready. Pullets should
begin to lay by November 1, or soon
after, and with proper feed, care and
management, should furnish an abund-
ance of eggs throughout the winter.

Is Your Poultry Flock Ready
For Winter? If Not, Start Now

(By o. A. Barton, Poultry Specialist)
Is your poultry flock ready for win
ter? This week should see the bulk of
culling done. The surplus cockerels
and old fowls should have been elimin-
ated from the flock before this time,
fattened and sold, or canned for home
consumption.
Poultry raisers find it best to reduce
the size Of the flock to one that can be
comfortably housed during the winter.
1t should contain only we'll developed
puffets and the best of the hens from
the flock.
There are several difinite and impor-
tant factors that poultrymen bear in
mind in housing poultry, all Of which
have direct bearing on the comfort,
health and production of the hens.
/. Cleanliness 3 essential. The
house should be free from filth and
vermine Of all kinds; good coat of
whitewash is well worth while. Four
ounces of carbOlic acid added to gal
Ion OF whitewash will add much to the
efficiency of the whitewash as olsen
.fectant.
2. Dryness is imperative. The
house must be dry at all times to safe
guard your flock from diseases; colds,
roup, rheumatism, and tuberculosis.
Drainage and ventilation are the two
important factors necessary to assure
a dry house.
3. Ventilation is necessary to insure
health to fowls confined, and is an i'm
portant factor in the elimination Of
moisture. Probably the two best meth
DDS in use are the straw lofts and the
muslin curtains at the front Of the
house. Eight to 10 percent as much
muslin area as you have floor space can
safely be used if placed on the south
side OF the house and near the top, so
there will be no draft resulting.
4. Light is one of the most impor-
tant factors in sanitation. Disease
germs do not thrive in sunlight. Win
dows should be so placed that direct
sun rays will reach as much of the in
terror surface of the house as possible,
particularly the floor space. They
should extend from near the floor well
up to the front ceiling, and preferably
on the south side From Is to 20 per
cent os much glass as floor space can
safely be used.
.. Drafts are dangerous to the
health Of fowls, and tend to develop
colds, roup and tuberculosis The
mouse should be absolutely tight up at
least feet from the floor SO no drafts
strike the birds. It is also well to have
north and west walls solid, and very
tight to the ceiling.

Crop Rotation System
Produced Largest Yield

Wheat grown in a crop rotation sys-
tenn outyielded by 20 per cent, in an
eight-year period, wheat grown under
continuous cropping system on land
that previous to the beginning Of the
treatment had the same treatment, is
the report of DR.. H. L. Walster of the
North Dakota Agricultural experiment
station. The wheat was grown on
plats at the experiment station.
Wheat grown under crop rotation
system outyielded by SO per cent, how
ever, wheat grown under continuous
cropping system on plat that pre-
vious to the beginning Of the period
has grown wheat continuously for 30
years.
Yield records are available for "a
years on this plat from which 3S con-
,ecutive wheat crops were harvested.
During the first twelve years that the
olat was under the control Of the ex-
pertinent station (1S92-1903) its aver
age yield was 17.2 while during the
asst IL years (19O9-192O) the average
Yield was but 1877 bushels. During
he first 12-year period yields were
.ut heavily by drouth in 1893 and
1900, and in the last IL years they
were cut heavily by rust in 1911, 1914,
1916 and 1919.
Use Of manure will not help in keep
.ng up yields under continuous crop
ping system, eight years Of expert
nentation with the use of both fresh
ind rotted manure shows, while use
II manure under crop rotation sys-
.em gives an increased yield. In the
simple four-year rotation of corn,
wheat, clover and oats, an average ap-
,lication Of about 10 tons Of manure
% the acre once in four years Chat is,
TWO such applications) has increased
Tanka0e for Fall Pigs.
One reason why fall pigs are not
considered profitable on more farms
| is because Of the tendency to neglect
them at weaving time. In order to re-
place the beneficial effects of green
pastures, hog raisers should endeavor
to supply these elements by feeding
literally Of tankage, skim milk or but
sermilk. The pigs winter quarters
should also be watched. While the pigs
10 not necessarily need warm barn,
Try quarters should always be prOvid-
I'd. A wet, chilled pig is never a pro-
liable one.
