Roosts and Dropping Boards

Dropping boards usually placed
about 20 inches from the floor for a
low ceiling and from 80 to SO inches
where the ceiling is 6 IL feet or
more above the floor, should be
about 10 inches wider than the
roosts and be made of matched
flooring running from front to back
and with nails well clinched so they
can easily be cleaned. Roosts
should be put from 6 to 8 inches
above the dropping boards and all
on the same level to prevent the
fowls from fighting to get on the
highest one. Roosts should be
spaced about two inches apart for
small breeds and Is inches for
large ones, while the space allow
ance on roosts should vary from
2 to 10 inches for different breeds.
Scantlings 2 by or by 4, and
with the upper sides planed smooth
and rounded, are satisfactory for
perches.

Profit for Novice Found
in the Broiler Business

The rearing of broilers is very
practical and profitable way of
starting into the poultry business,
states a writer in the Philadelphia
Record. The broiler plant can be
conducted by itself or in connec-
ton with an egg farm.
Broilers are young, plump chick
ems, usually killed when from 6 to
IL weeks of age. The main point
in raising them proftably is to
keep them growing as fast as pos
Sible.
The first rule for deriving a good
profit from poultry is to get only
A-No. l chicks, from blood-tested
stock. The next step is to keep
these chicks growing so that they
will reach laying maturity before
cold weather. .
There are two systems in vogue
for feeding poultry-dry and wet.
The former is simpler and east
er. The beginner is advised to
adopt either one and follow it until
he has good reason for modifying
or changing it.
More care should be exercised
in feeding chicks than fowls, be-
cause they are hungry little things
and do not know so well what is
good for them. They eat anything,
and the digestive organs are not
able to handle the Objectionable
matter.

SPECIAL FEED AID
TO LATE CHICKENS
Good Ration Urged to Push
Fall Production.

BY DR.. N. F. Walters, Poultry Husbandry
Staff Iowa State Colege.-wNU Service.
A good ration for obtaining fast
growth and development of late
Matched chicks is recommended.
The following ration, one that has
been successfully used at the col
lege poultry farm, may be mixed
at home in small quantities or
can be supplied by local elevators
in larger amounts than would be
convenient to mix on the farm:
Ground yellow corn, 80 parts;
ground oats, 20 parts; wheat bran,
10 parts; wheat middlings, 10
parts; meat and bone meal, 10
parts; dried milk, 5 parts; alfalfa
meal, S parts, and salt, l part.
Liquid skim milk may be substitute
ed for dried milk, and l per cent
of cod liver oil should be provided
until the chicks 60 out on range.
This all-mash ration may be fed
until the chicks are eight weeks
old. After this period, the ration
should be supplemented with a
grain mixture of equal parts of
cracked yellow corn, whole wheat
and hulled oats.
The mash should be kept before
the chicks at all times through
out the growing period. The grain
may also be fed in hoppers. When
the chicks are IL weeks of age,
they should be allowed equal parts
of mash and grain fed separately.
Nutrients essential for most eco
nomical gains in weight (protein,
carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and
minerals) are supplied in the prop
er amounts in the above feeding
recommendations for chicks. In
addition, plenty of clean water will
aid digestion and circulation.

Where and When the Men
Should Raise Their Ha.

Here are some of the specific in
stances when the hat raising custom
should be observed, according to a
writer in the Chicago Tribune:
Need we remind you men that
your hat should be raised whenever
and wherever a woman addresses
you, indoors or out, and when you
meet, and perhaps stop to talk to a
woman on the street. You needn't
keep your head uncovered all the
time you are speaking to the wo-
man, and endanger your health by
exposure to the elements, but you
must raise the hat momentarily.
If you are walking with woman,
and meet another man or woman
who is known to either one or both
of you, raise your hat.
You must do the same when you
greet an elderly man of your
acquaintance, a superior in rank or
office, clergyman, or man of dis
tinction. And again, when the Amer
lean flag is carried by, when the ma
tional anthem is played, when the
cortege of a national figure passes,
and in the presence of the dead.
Should a woman unknowingly
drop an article as she is walking
down the street, a man who notices
the loss picks the article up and
hurries after the woman to return
it. She acknowledges the courtesy,
he raises his hat, and Immediately
departs. If this woman is accom-
panied by a man, her escort also
raises his hat to the other man in
acknowledgment of the service. And
when a man is taking leave of a
group of women, or group which
includes a woman, he raises his hat

Anesthesia Invented by
Surgeons of Middle Ages

The idea of anesthesia was born
IN the minds of surgeons in the
middle ages. Oddly CROUCH, the first
anesthetics used were the fruits of
human frailty. In Europe, writes
DR.. Thomas M. Beck in the Chicago
Tribune, the early surgeons occa-
slonally loaded their patients with
huge doses of wine prior to a serious
operation. On the other hand, the
Mohammedans, to whom the use
OF alcohol was forbidden, were &C.
customed to use hashish, a mildly
narcotic preparation obtained from
Indian hemp. However, these two
drugs failed to establish themselves
in surgical practice, since the
amounts required to produce COM
plete anesthesia brought about GER
tain deleterious effects.
1t is true that the use of opium,
and later of its active principle,
morphine, represented quite an i'm
provement over alcohol or hashish.
However, their use N the amounts
necessary was accompanied by no
little danger. Consequently until
about a century ago the surgeon
placed his main reliance on several
husky assistants whose duty it was
to hold the patient on the table.
In 1893 Sir Humphrey Davy, the
chemist, heated some ammonium
nitrate and obtained nitrous oxide,
colorless, odorless gas. He hap
pened to observe that several in
halations of the gas gave him a
feeling of exhilaration, and while
repeating tins experiment on anoth-
er occasion noticed that it quieted
the pain of an aching tooth. He
suggested its use in surgery. How
ever, the practical difficulties of ad-
ministering it to patient prevented
this application at the time.

Farmers Cooperatives

The first boom in the farmer-co-
operative movement came during
the depression of 1872-1877. The
Grange patrons of Husbandry) /,
the oldest of the general farm or
CARNATIONS, had been formed in
1867. It was the intention of its
founders that it be a fraternal or
der, but many farmers who found
themselves caught in the depres-
sion following the panic of 1873
turned to the new organization in
an effort to lessen the distressing
consequences of economic mal-ad-
justments. In 1873, 1867 local
oranges were organized, and the
following year 11,941.

Developing PulletS

A pullet that is being raised for
. layer should have gradual, I'M
interrupted growth. A pause in
growth due to frequently empty
hopper or dry fountain may mean
q runt, and runt means a pullet
that was potentially a good layer
but whose digestive capacity, lay
ing capacity, was not developed to
its highest degree, consequently
she can never be an efficient as
Similator of expensive feed and
would better be sold.

Turkeys Need New Range

Unless utmost precaution is used,
turkeys cannot be raised success
fully on ground where turkeys or
chickens have ranged the year be-
fore. Even then, after disinfecting
such ground, trouble often arises,
says the Wisconsin. Agriculturist
and Farmer. The only safe plan
is to provide new clean range and
runs for the birds each season.
Then, given healthy stock and good
care, the flock has the best CHANGE
to grow and thrive.

Boards in Victorian Era

In the Victorian era the martial
beard was taboo, and it was said
that Edward VII, then Prince of
Wales, was breaking the Queens
regulations by remaining faithful to
the old fashion while wearing field
marshal's uniform. It was pointed
out, however, that, if the prince
were to remove his beard, he would
be unable to wear naval uniform
without likewise offending against
regulations.

Edinburgh castle looms upon a
rock 270 feet high, precipitous from
three sides. The most ancient of the
castle buildings is the famous st.

from the residence of Malcolm III,
and his queen, Margaret, sister of
Edgar Atheling, in the 18th century.
It was in Edinburgh castle that
King James I of England, Scot
land and Ireland was born. The
apartment is known as Queen
