Heat-Saying Idea

An interesting glimpse of the fu-
ture comes from DR.. w. Il. Whitney,
director of the research laboratory
of the General Electric company. In
cold weather ''why heat whole
building when all that is necessary is
to heat the occupants?" Doctor Whit
ney inquiries. With radio waves he
would heat rhe bodies of persons oc-
cupying a building without heating
the building. "Why heat thousands of
cubic feet merely to keep a body
warm?" We may live to be warmed

POULTRY FACTS

ways he approached with caution
Cock birds usually produce eX-
cellent quality chicks, but some
times give poor fertility early in
the season.
If a farmer keeps chickens at all
he can afford comfortable pOul-
try house. The old poultry house
NAV be remodeled and made more
comfortable at very little expense.
High fertility in Matching re-
suits, high INABILITY in rearing the
flock, high productivity and low
mortality in the laying shed denote
the general breeding value of the
parent stock.
Most varieties of tapewOrms have
intermediate hosts. That is, pOr-
ton of the tapeworm's life is spent
in the body of an insect or grub
and the tapewOrm gains entrance
to the chickens body only when
the chicken eats the intermediate
host.
In dealing with tapeworms, as
with round worms. prevention is
better than cure. Thorough daily
cleaning and careful disposal of
the droppings will prevent the in
sects from becoming infested so
that they will be harmless for the
chickens to eat.
