LUTHER D. SMITH. ’MODERN CHICKEN COOPS. -*he Qnc© Familiar Laths Hare Given W*j to Wire Netting. Men whose memories go back, say, 40 years will, remember that in those 'days when a man wanted to build a : chicken coop he bought a bundle or two of laths and built it. There are mighty few lath chicken coops built nowadays. ‘Even the smallest chicken raiser, who keeps & few in his back yard, makes his -coop or runway of poultry netting. The chicken house, or shelter, is made of boards, often of two thicknesses and 'With tarred paper between, for better sprotection from the weather, and with openings at the bottom and under the projecting rooffor ventilation. Laths were cheap; poultry netting is .still cheaper. It is made of steel wire, galvanized, in various widths and in Although the war ended more than thirty years ago, and the rainbow form of peace is said to hover serenely over the survivors of that great conflict, yet, from an occurence in this city today, ond would imagine that the foregoing reflection was misleading. One old soldier, an ex-“reb” actually used si grape shot on an ex-“yank.” Mr. R. A.. Griffies; an old confederate of Co, H. 7th Regt. Ga. Vols., presented to Mr. Stephen Dox, an old federal of Co. H. 33rd N. Y.' Infantry, a grape shot found in the front yar f d of the historic Henry House, around ‘which the tide of battle ebbed and flowed at the battle of Manassas, July 21st, 1861. Sherman’s battery was planted at this point and was here twiee-assaulted and finally, captured by the confederates. Mr. Griffies was in thi^ terrific fight, and picked up this shot immediately after it was over. It is about the size of a walnut and wears the rust of thirty years and more upon its. surface. Since Mr. Dox has resided south he has made hundreds of friends, especially among the old “confeds.” Among the strongest of‘these is Mr. Griffies, and, in obedience to the promptings of this fraternal regard this souvenir of the dark days of strife is transferred from its southern to its northern owner. Mr. Dox says he will cherish it for the melancholy, yet proud record of heroism and devotion to duty which it : Backlen’s Arnica Salve.

Narrow nettings of smaller mesh are •used in various "Ways to keep in little ichicks—sometimes a foot wide small mesh netting to run around at the base •of the inclosure, the regular netting being set above it, thus increasing the 'total height of the netting. Sometimes -the small mesh netting is run around finslde of the regular netting, thus mak ing the lower part of the netting double. ^Sometimes it is used to make separate ifmnftll inclosures within the large run way and perhaps to make a number of smhU ihclosures to 1 keep separate broods of chicks apart. The narrow, small mesh netting is made up to three and a half feet in width. There is nowadays a use for wire net ting in chicken houses. A netting with a square mesh is laid on the floor of chicken houses to keep out rats and mice. -y There are now many large establish ments in this country for the raising of Chickens for commercial purposes, for ; market and for breeding, and there are as many men as ever, who raise chickens at home, from the many who keep « few in the back yard, with a simple chicken honse and coop, to men who raise many chjckens and maintain an elaborate plant for their breeding and keeping.
