The whole crowd gladly lent a

beat the band, and all around the
hillside little balls of snow were
made. The Tinymites all knew their
stuff and, as each ball was big
enough, twas pushed up to the snow
house spot, and that's right where it
stayed.
They worked for several hours or
more. Just guess what they were
working for. Why they decided they

And, when at last they stopped their

Built-In Articles Should
Match Color of Woodwork

In order to appreciate the value of
built-in furniture from the standpoint
of economy and as useful and decora-
tive adjuncts to the home, architects
must be experienced. Such pieces
should, to give the best effects, con-
form closely in color and finish with
the standing woodwork of the room of
which they are practically a part.
There are now many architects who
specialize on the small house and
some of these make much of quaint
and effective built-in pieces in the In
terror arrangements. However, fire.
uuent pitfall to the inexperienced Is
the finish given this built-in furniture.
Often 1t seems desirable to make these
pieces appear as furniture rather than
as part of the room.
With this idea such pieces are
treated with different finish from that
used on the standing woodwork, and
always with disastrous effect. Where
one must live in a house planned for
another it is often possible to intro
duce some pieces of built-in furniture
adyantageously. A window-seat, or
inglenook seats may be built In with
ease and at small cost.

Select Best Layers by
Use of Good Trap Nest

A good trap nest provides the one
accurate method of determining ex-
actly how many eggs hen has laid
In one year. There is no short cut or
easy way to figure from part of a
years trap-nest record what the total
for the year will be, nor to Gull care
fully enough to estimate what it has
been or will be, say poultry specialists
at the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
The highest type OF brooding for egg
production may be secured only by
trap-nesting every breeder throughout
every day of her first laying year. and
every day throughout the breeding
season, as long as she is kept In
addition, both male and female birds
must be selected which have the abil-
ity to transmit high production to their
offspring.
The best poultry breeders are
searching for the pullet that lays not
only during the spring, but is also an
early maturer and heavy winter layer,
as well as persistent summer layer.
These characteristics. coupled with
intensity of production, are found only
in the best hens, the poultrymen claim.

DIVIDE HEN FLOCK
FOR BEST RESULTS

Separate pulIets from hens, say
poultrymen from the New York State
College of Agriculture at Ithaca. Old
err hens are apt, if allowed, to keep
the pullets from their feed and boss
them around so that they do not get
a fair chance to develop as they
should Separation also lessons the
risk from disease spread

known aids to egg production. and

pullet should always have all the
milk, sour or sweet, that she can

handling poultry successfully, and tile

washing the milk dish every time be,

quently. Some men clean the drop
ping boards every day, but this is not
absolutely necessary.
With plenty Of milk, the hens do not
need so much water, and few farm
ers claim better results when no wa
ter at all Is given If the hens always
have access to milk. The milk gives
them not only water, but also much
needed proteins and minerals.
Whole cabbages hung in the scratch
pens make fine green feed, but other
greenstuffs are also good. 1t Is ss-
rious mistake to throw any largt
quantity of green roughage on the
floor where it is apt to be wasted by
getting moldy and dirty.
For the mash which pullets should
always have before them, equal parts
of bran, middlings, yellow corn meal,
ground heavy oats, and beef scraps
generally give the best results. II
the chickens have all the milk they
can drink, the meat scrap allowance
can be cut in two. The house itself
should be dry and well-ventilated.

lance of keeping his stock free fran

pens should not be too deep at first.
as the pullets do not know how to
scratch deep yet. Yellow cracked
corn is as good scratch feed as any
one needs, but one-third of any other
wholesome grain can also be added.
Add to these aids and precautions
a good culling program, say the state
college men, and any poultryman
should be able to get both pleasure
and profit from handling his flock.
The little things count In egg pro-
duction, they say. They believe these
practices, if followed, will increase
noticeably the production of every
hen in the state. They are not, Of
course, in favor of greater total
production of eggs, but less hens and
more eggs is the combination that
means money in the poultryman's
pocket
