Wintering Of Pullets

and graded into four classes-good'

cred poor or Gull.
The next step is to grade and house
the good and medium classes accord

Every bird should be treated with a
good lice killer. A thorough cleaning

all the pens. All leaks in the roof
should be mended and the floors made
dry. Straw should cover the floors to
depth OF six inches. After the pull
lets are penned they should not be al
lowed out Of doors until late In the
spring. "C
Do not put more pullets In pen
than the roost and floor space can ac-
commodate. Keep the house well open
on the front. but have the sides and
back tight against drafts. Use cur
tains on the windows when freezing
weather begins.
Pullets require II pounds Of scratch
feed day per hundred birds. This
should be made Of equal parts OF
cracked corn and wheat II artificial
lights are used. then IA pounds or
scratch. feed should be fed each day.
Mash should be available to the birds
at all times. Do not allow the arl-
lets to lay more than so per cent OF
normal production for the next few
months.

Roofing Suggested for
State Highways in Iowa

A serio-comic purpose seems to
have been behind bill in Iowa which
proposed TO roof the state highways.
The sponsor Of the bill supported II in
speech in which II was argued that
the sun and rains of the warm months
and the snow and cold of the winter
months subjected the highways TO
such changes as made 1t physically
impossible for them to stand the
strain. 1t was suggested that the cost
Of the roofing would be less than the
rebuilding of the roads. Not enough
legislators were impressed and the
measure died.

country and both hog producers and
veterinary practitioners should keep

cholera Is present in the country con-

or more hogs in a herd get sick to de-
lay from day to day in seeking as
sistarce in the hope that the condI-

losses this fall were due to the, neglect
of farmers TO call their veterinarians
In time to administer the. preventive
treatment before the infection had
had time to reach all of the swine In
the herd. Remember that the serum
treatment is a preventive and not
cure. Unless hog owners and vet.
Urinary practitioners are on the alert
and act promptly, the losses will be

IF HEARD BECOMES eovERNoE

Dunbar's Magazine, who always re-
fers to d. B. Heard as sd. Bunk.
says in late issue: eff Bunk ever
gets into the governors office, the
Statue of Liberty will be taken down
and three gilded balls nailed up in
its place.f But what interests us
most is how Dunbar has won over
Daddy Mills of the Phoenix Messen-
ger to say that bananas will grow
on the cactus and figs on the palo
verde trees when Dwight B. Heard
becomes governor of Arizona" Not
much chance we must admit if the
following from Dunbar's is true about
certain election held in Los Olivos
where Heard was ingloriously de-
feated:
In fact, out of all the republican
votes in the Los Olivos precinct
where Bunk has lived for many years
but three were cast for the ex-bull
mooser. Two of these votes prob
ably came from the Heard household.
Whoinhell cast the third one has al
ways been a mystery.
In the forthcoming republican pri-
maries the same D. Bunk and the
same Tom Maddox will be opposed
for governor. Will history-as orig
inally written in the contest for pre-
cinct committeeman-be repeated?
