flock very carefully and remove all
culls, such as those that are too old,
weak, surplus males, stunted and off
colored individuals Get rid Of all Of
this stock now, " you have not al
ready done so. Crowding IN the
houses is very bad, especially In the
fall Of the year. While they are IN
the roos,s they should have plenty
Of room. The rOosts should be To-
Gated where the occupants will be

Each fowl should have at least three
square feet Of floor space and nine
inches Of roosting space. Crowd
ng on the ground is even more de
trimental than cr0wding IN the
houses. The more ground space the
chickens have the better they viii do.
The more they are crowded on the
ground the more trouble with all
kinds Of poultry diseases. Backyard
flocks should be allowed not less
than 30 square feet Of yard room per
fowl and more is better Farm
flocks should be allowed about one
acre to every $50 hens, altho they
may be more crowded without very
bad results

people appreciate the importance Of

bad and sure 20 cause serious troub-
