poultry flock throughout the winter.
The increased egg production has
many times repaid him the amount in
vested. His house shown in the Illus
tration is 10 feet wide and so feet
long. The front wall is five feet high
and the rear wall five feet six inches.
The low walls help conserve the heat
given off by the fowls. The house has
south exposure with practically all
windows and other openings on the
south SIDE Plenty Of sunlight deals
death to disease germs Concrete con-
struction permits the most complete
sanitation because the house can very
easily be cleaned and kept clean. 1t
goes without saying that rats cannot
gnaw through nor find nesting place in
the concrete house. The smooth dry,
concrete floor, walls and foundation
provide no cracks nor crevices to har-
Dor lice, mites or other parasites which
cause the poultryman so much worry
and loss.
Mr.. Gardeners experience with his
poultry house shows that increased
egg production from a flock Of 400
fowls amounts to sufficient to pay for
the house in four months.

Selecting Varieties to
Start New Chicken Flock

In selecting varieties to start new
flock, fancy breeds are usually let
alone by any one who does not make
business or a pastime of poultry
keeping. 1t is pleasant for person
who keeps but a dozen or twenty hens
to have them of some choice breed,
and to take great pains with them ;
studying into their habits, their
points, and all that. But few per-
sons have either the taste or inclina-
ton to be successful breeders SO, as
rule, it is best to keep common or
mixed hens, but a full-blooded cock of
one of the best breeds.

Community Campaign to
Eradicate Chinch Bugs

Wherever the chinch bug was album
dant during the past summer, 90 per
cent of them will be found alternating
In the bunch grass and bluest9n in
meadows, pastures, ravines and along
roadsides. The burning over of these
places will result in the destruction
of practically all of the bugs, and
when the community co-operates in
such campaign 1t eliminates the ne
eessity of fighting the chinch bug the
following year.

Quality Steers Respond
Better to Long Feeding

inexperienced cattle breeders should
remember that plain cheap steers that
have had a short feed on corn, sell
about as well as good quality steers
during the spring months Of the year,
and plain thin steers can always be
purchased cheaper than quality steers.
The quality steer will, however, re-
spond better to long feed and will
sell better than the long fed plain
steer

Geese in Small FIocks.

Geese can be raised in small num-
bers successfully and at a profit on
many farms where there is low, rough
pasture land containing natural sup
ply of water. They need house only
during cold or stormy weather, when
an open shed should be provided.

advisable to cut large logs for winter
fuel. drag saw will be found useful.
Effective drag-saw outfits are expen-
sive, compared with circular saws, as
the machinery is somewhat more COM
plicated and should include carriage
for moving up the log for successive
cuts.
Best Location for Outfit
If possible, the wood-sawing rig
should be located at the foot of slope
and the logs hauled to pile above it,
where they can be rolled into position.
Portable drag-saw outfits, which will
carry the saw from cut to cut, are
also in the market for large opera
lions.
It will probably be found economical,
however, to save the trunk Of the tree
for timber, cutting off the top and
large limbs for fuel The circular or
buzz saw is preferable for cutting
these into stove-wood lengths. 1t will
usually be best to cut the wood into
lengths by hand as long as two or three
men can handle and haul it to cen
tral saving place. A good skidway OF
small logs should be built for rolling
logs and heavy poles up to the saw.
Sledges are usually better than wagons
for hauling in winter. Efforts should
be made to keep the wood free from

Satisfactory Mash for
Pullets Still Growing

A satisfactory laying mash which
can also be used for pullets still grow
ing in the late fall has been suggested
by the Ames poultry people. They say
that this mash can be fed right through
the winter with very good results.
Where tankage is not available, 1t
pays to substitute some form of milk
or meat scrap for the same results.
This is the mixture.
100 lbs ground oats.
100 lbs. ground corn.
100 lbs flour middlings.
IS lbs. so per cent protein tankage
With this mash, some green food
and of course egg shell should be
within. reach of the flock at all times.
The men who use this mash say that
buttermilk has proven to be the cheap.

egg production when used with good
laying mash.

Mitzi in Blossom Time" has but just
returned TO her native shores from
Italy, where she has been studying
vocal art and singing in the opera
houses of Bologna. Milan, Naples and
Rome for the past four years.
Miss Nameth is one of those fortu-
nate girls who did not have to take UP
the stage to support a widowed mother
and six baby brothers or any one OF
those good old reasons. Nor did she
have to fight her parents tooth and nail
for the right to go upon the stage.
When Laurel suggested the idea to her
parents they were overjoyed. 1t had
been thrir dream that their daughter
should reach out for the honors of be-
ing a good singer in opera and so they
helped her in every conceivable way.
Now she is back in America and has
made good on Broadway In her very
first role and she is tremendously de-
lighted and humble and grateful for 1t
all.
Miss Nemeth is one of those fortu-
in her own right She is the daugh-
ter of Charles Nemeth, president of

and Is of Hungarian lineage. After
studying music under two or three
masters in New York she went 10
italy after the armistice, and after
a term of coaching with Santa Rosa
she made her debut at the Carcomo
Theater, Milan, in 1920, as Margue-
rite, in Guonod's Faust" appearing
subsequently in repertoire of twelve
