County Agents Column Care of Baby Chicks The first week is a critical time for baby chicles, and they hould have special care during (this period. brooder stove Regulate the so that the temperature will be 92 to 95 degree F. two and one I half inches above the litter at 'the edge of the brooder canopy and maintain this temperature during the first week. Reduce ill, temperature three to five degrees each week, but keep the brooder house temperature 7o degree F. Keep the chicks close to the brooder during the first week. Place a guard made from card¬ board, wire mesh or hardware cloth at least one foot high about four feet from the edge , all of the hover and the way around. For the first three days place feed on egg flats, paper or chick box lids inside the enclosure. Put fruit jar waterers close to the feed. Chicles can use small feeders after the first three days. Crowding makes for wet at¬ ter and disease, and may re- la d growth and prevent pro- per developments. Give the chicks at last three-fourths of a square foot of floor space per chick. Landscape Notes: Site Planning: You should start the land- cape planning before the foun¬ dation of a new building is started. The existing shade trees should have a lot to do with the placing of the house, Plan for shade when you need it. The prevailing breezes should be considered, especially when a barn or chicken house is near. Good drainage is a must. Al¬ ways try to get a location where the water will drain off in all directions. Avoid expen¬ sive grading unless absolutely necessary. Sometimes a lot ot expen- sive driveway can be elimin- . ated by placing the house closer' to the street and there- fore allowing more space in the back for private yard. Parking and turning space should be considered when planning the garage or carport. j Remember that the house does not have to be in the exact center of the lot in all cases. Think of the different units of the yard, public, or j front; Service, private or gar- den and plan your landscape development before you make -ostly mistakes. Prunning of Late Summer l an( j Fall Blooming Plants: Summer and fall blooming of berry producing plants such as the Crapemyrtle? Nandine, Holly, Photinia and Pyracantha should be pruned in the fall or winter before new growth be- gins. Ligustrum, pittosporum and other rank growing plants can be cut back at this time, cut isome of the old branches close to the ground to get a bushy plant. Do not prune the spring blooming plants (spirea, forsy- this, etc.) until after their nor¬ mal blooming period. You do do not want to cut off the blooms and buds. Injured and diseased limbs of trees shoul be cut out. Cut close and do not leave a stub. Re-planting: Sometimes our shrubs and trees will become over-crowded after sevreql years of growth. These plants should be thinned out if this has happened. Use them in another part of the yard or in a shrub borded. An over-crowded planting looks bad. Learn a little about the plants growth habits; size, spread; exposure, etc., and it will save a lot of transplanting and replacing.
