Hen House Ventilation
Is of Much Importance

Ten hens breathe off over a pint
of water a day. Are you providing
ventilation to get this out of the house,
or do your hens take continuous cold
bath day and night, without a towel
for rub down? Even you would get
the roup under such conditions. Watch
out for moisture on the windows and
frost on the walls. Put In one square
foot of thin cloth curtain to every if
teen square feet of floor. Keep this
curtain open whenever weather per-
mits. Draughts and damp air and
floors cause more colds than zero
weather. Exercise helps to prevent
colds. Light feeding in clean, dry
litter eight inches deep induces exer-

Coolidge and Wallace Differ on Wheat

DRESIDENT COOLIDGE and
Secretary of Agriculture Henry
C. Wallace are not in full accord
on the program for agricultural
relief. The difference of opinion was
brought out prominently when Secre-
tary Wallace, in the face of the Pres
ident's recommendations on the sub
ject. made public his comprehensive
report on the wheat situation In
which he advocated the creation of a
government export corporation to buy
surplus wheat and market 1t abroad
President Coolidge, who was well In
formed in advance of Secretary Wal
lace's proposal. did see fit to recon-
mend it In his message TO congress.
The President, 1t is declared, regards
Secretary Wallace's program as too
drastic
While the President said in his mes
sage that he believed it TO be feasible
to provide government assistance to
exports, and urged that authority be
given the War Finance corporation to
grant liberal terms on loans for ex-
ports of fats and grains, he failed to
give approval to the use of govern
ment funds for the direct purchase of
surplus farm products as proposed by
