Poultry, Pet and Live Stock By J. A. DINWIDDIE, New Market, Tenn. The secret of success in ‘the t A j poultry business avtce is to keep flocks comfortable, con tented and happy, A »- niV) At no time of the *■ ' u year does the ap plication of this ./ secret apply with Isl € greater force than during the sum- , men Try to keep rOJ/ItKV fowls and chicks •> comfortable, con tented and happy ZA/nz'/ot all the time. If JLJOCIOI you have not al ready removed the windows from the poultry house, do so at once. Take them out, thoroughly clean them and store away, until needed. In some place where they can not be damaged. Give the fowls the comfort of an open-front house with an abundance of fresh air and freedom from the stifling heat of closed sleeping quarters in summer. Or better still, if you have an orchard or other convenient trees, clean and close your poultry house and drive your chickens to the trees, first putting up long poles for them to walk upon into trees. In this natural roost you have no lice and mites to fight, which les sens the summer’s work quite a good deal. Clean up the poultry house. Tne poultry houses should be thoroughly renovated. Sweep the dust and cob webs from the ceiling and walls inside of the house. Scrape the dropping boards clean and give them and the roosts a good coat of kerosene or a liquid lice killer. Clean out the nests and burn the old nesting material. Whitewash nests inside and out and dry them in the sun. Thorough spray ing of the whole interior of the house with thin whitewash applied with a compressed air sprayer will sweeten things wonderfully. If floors are of earth, remove the top six or eight inches and replace with fresh, new sandy soil. If floors are wood or ce ment, scrape and sweep clean and then wash with a strong creolin solution. Allow to dry thoroughly, then, cover with a few inches of sand over'which straw litter may be used if desired. ■When you have the house clean, keep it clean. In warm locations it is well to have a slide or opening in the north side of the poultry house, to‘cool off the build ing in extremely hot weather The or dinarily closed type of poultry house with small bare runs, and no shade, makes mighty uncomfortable quarters for fowls in hot weather. Many losses among adult fowls in the summer sea son arc the direct result of carelessness in this matter of providing comfortable quarters. Shade is Important. Shade is essential to comfort and health quite as much as is sunshine. Sunshine, combined with fresh air. is one of the best germ destroyers and preventives of disease that we have. It is cheap and effective, and for that reason it is often overlooked for other agents which are more expensive and less desirable. It Is. however, possible under some con ditions to have too much of a good thing. And abundant sunshine, with out shade for use when needed, may cause trouble In hot weather. Fowls are often overcome by heat, and. when kept in bare, unshaded runs, not infre quently suffer from sunstroke. The remedy is obvious Provide an abun dance of shade for use when desired by the birds. When the runs are small and bare they should he scraped and swept frequently to remove accumu lated droppings. All runs should be spaded up often and seeded down to oats, rye or corn. Corn grown in the runs in hot weather makes rapid growth and fu’nlshes not only fresh green food, but shade as well if it is permitted to grow, besides purifying the soil. Keep the runs clean and the soil well stirred. Where it is not prac ticable to provide shade of trees or by grow ing corn, but lap or muslin sun shields shoul 1 he provided. Grow ing stock on range will be mu< : i more comfortable and profitable if dur ing th° summer season they have an opportunity to enjoy the shade of fruit trees and hushes, as well as that of either burlap or muslin sun shelters.

Despite the j covering by shorts prices were 8 to 15 points below Monday’s closing at the | opening of the cotton market today. Au- t gust and September sold under 11 cents But for the covering movement there would have been a sensational break, as there was nothing in the weather nori crop news of a bullish nature. Weak cables was also a depressing factor. During the first hour of trading the , market was under heavy selling, and suf- I sering from the consequence of heavy | hedge selling against long contracts in Liverpool and spot cotton, and prices made 6 further decline in most active I positions of 8 to 17 points from the early • range. A sudden buying wave prevailed I during the late forenoon trading, headed i by Eastern and Southern mills, also large I sppt interest, and through their agres slveness prices made a continuous rise. | gaining the entire decline, and prices during the afternoon session aggregated 19 to 24 points above the opening figures.

Up to that time the bullish cart had been hitched to a star. Since then the bull ish star seems to have been bitched to a cart. I HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Aug 13. Weather 'conditions and developments continue fa vorable outside of western and southern 1 Texas and central Mississippi, where it is cloudj e generally fair weather prevailed ' Temperatures are normal and rainfall confined to East Tennessee ami a few points in Mississippi Indications are for i unsettled and showery weather coming on west Texas, Oklahoma and northern Arkansas, while elsewhere generally fair weather will continue. A large Texas spot house sent the fol lowing: “Think crop prospects in Texas and Oklahoma on the whole best seen at this time of year “ Liverpool developed further acute weak ness with futures as much as 17 points lower; spots 21 points lower. However, there is encouraging feature in a slight increase in spot sales, possibly indicating that mill demand is ready to take hold. Spot people here reported more inquirv from Eastern mills for early delivery. Our market again strongly entertained ’he view that a reaction was due after the big decline, and there was large buy ing to replace sold-out contracts in the initial decline of 12 points. It soon ap peared. however, that Liverpool was not yet through with liquidation and that pressure continued at the New York eml. Resistance here was overcome In the sec ond hour ami October dropped to 11.16 There is no question, however. that technical conditions are sounder, ami that mill demand is ready to come in on the first sign of a change in the market Texas is still alone in supplying early cotton, and Houston quotes middling 1 cent higher than futures.
