Drafts should be avoided in the hen

which may result in roup or other all
ments. The south side, or front, of
the poultry house may be left COM
paratively open, but should be under
control, so the openings may be closed
gradually as cold weather approaches.

sufficiently strong. This is especially
true when containers are used more
than once. Shipping containers should
be light in weight but sufficiently dur
able to carry the produce.
Size.-The size of a cOntainer de-
ponds upon the desires of the custom
ers. Most persons wish to obtain small
quantities of each product at time
Containers should be just large enough
for the produce shipped. If the carton
is too large or too small, both the
produce and the cOntainer are likely
TO be damaged, for the produce will
not be kept in place and the container
will be crushed. The larger the guam
tity of produce shipped In one parcel
the lower will be the cost per pound
for transportation and the lower the
container cost per pound.
Appearance.-A cOntainer should
present an attractive appearance. both
on arrival and when opened, and
OF course, new containers are more
attractive than those which have
been used; and only those second
hand containers which are clean
should be used again
Cost.-The cost Of containers puts a
distinct limitation on small shipments
of farm produce. A shipment must
have considerable value in order that
the transportation charges and cost Of
container may not equal a large per-
centage Of the price. The price which
can be reasonably paid for container
will depend on the value of the con-
tents, the cost OF transportation, and
the price received for the produce as
compared with the price that could
be received locally. A maximum price
that should be paid cannot be stated,
as each case must be decided by study
ing all OF the factors involved.
Cheap splint baskets are satisfac-
tory for many kinds of produce. For
products that need no special type
attractive and satisfactory containers
often can be made by the producer at
a low cost from clean, discarded pa
per-bOard boxes in which merchandise
has been shipped.

The following remarkable endorse
ment of Tanlac was given recently by
Mrs. Alice Gresham Dodd, at the
Gresham Memorial Home, Gavin Park,
Evansville, Ind, which home was pre-
Sented TO her by the patriotic people
OF Indiana, as evidence OF their appre-
citation of the services rendered to his
country by her son, Corporal James
b. Gresham, the first American soldier
killed in France. Expressions of SYM
pathy were received by Mrs. Dodd
from all parts Of the United States,

suited in the serious breakdown of
Mrs. Dodd's health, but everyone will
learn with interest and pleasure that
she is now in splendid health again.

the entire credit for her recovery to
the well-known medicine, Tanlac.

Mrs. Dodd. "At first it was just in

Eatonic is the modern remedy for

and carries out the acidity and gas
and enables the stomach to digest the
