Comfort and Convenience of Flock Using Devices Should Be Given First Consideration. (By Prof. Harry R. Lewis.) (I?6Ad of the Department of Poultry Husbandry at the N. Y. Htate Agri cultural Experiment Station.) Poultry appliance* that save labor are always in demand -but the ques tion of expense must bo considered Many of these devices can ho bought tncao cheaply than you could make them at home but a work bench and a few tools will save many a cioitar arid occupy you on dun clays. The home worker, however, must Consider the necessity of his flock and not only himself In saving la bor. The flock Is to use the appa ratus, and it should be made tis com fortable and accessible for such uso sts possible. In the selecting and planning of the ap pliances and equipment of the poultry house three special factors should be ‘borne In mind. The first and foremost Ss simplicity That Is all the Internal fixtures should be of simple design and construction, thereby making It more •unitary and reducing the cost of con struction., ns well as the labm* In car ing for the birds The second factor should be that of cleanliness The ap pliances should all be portable, so that they can bp easily and quickly removed from their resting place and taken out of doors and thoroughly cleaned. They should be made of smooth hard timber or metal, and should be free from cracks and crevles, which harbor para sites or disease-carrying c<rganlsms. They should be so made that when they axe thoroughly disinfected the solution can rea' h all parts. t'leanllnes* Is ot extreme importance In the laying house The last factor is that of the location cif the many appliances md portions of equipment, The successful poultry raiser Is he who retnern!)#*•. s that the house Is designed for the birds und the capacity of the house In large measure Is deter mined by the number of square feet floor space. Hence all of the fixtures ehould be elevated above the ground at least a font and one half, thus giving all the floor apsce to the birds, and thereby Increasing the capacity of the house. Poultry House Essentials. In the following paragraphs 1 shall Chiefly outline some of the essential fea tures of the poultry house equipment •Which go to provide these three stand wr«l requirements, and hence save labor. In tlie construction of the perches It Ss an excellent plan to have them made In sections, each section binged to the back wall of the houit} at such a height that they are about eight Inches above the dropping boards The front perch 1* provided with a Khok. so arranged that the perches can be lifted up In front and hooked to the roof of the house This raises them above the droplng boards and facilitates the re moval of the droppings. If loose pin hinges are used the pin cun be re moved and the entile section of the perches taken out of doors for cleaning. In the construction of the dropping boards the plan should be to run the hoards perpendicular rathe** than length wise. Tliif* Is the way the attendant will work in cleaning them and the removal Is made much easlei as there is no ob struction to catch the hoe. The nests, which are usually located directly under the dropping hoards, should he made as simple and portable as possible. The best home-made nest consists of two parts, a movable plat form which forms the floor of the nest Whd which slides Into place like a draw •r On this platform set the nest boxes, which simply consist of Ix 4 white pine twnirda built to form a square 14 Inches on a side Such an arrangement can |>e quickly taken to pieces and cleaned. Kverv pen in the poultry house should be provided with an elevated small wire coop about two by four feet square, with • slatted bottom. such coops are com monly called broody pens They axe used tor rhuttlng up broody bens, for confining surplus cockerels and for the •hutting up at short notice and for n abort time <»nl> of any hen which is out i of condition and which will later be re* I gnoved t«> the hospital. Home made Dust Box. A large box <a* frame can r*e construct ‘ Wd In the corner of each pen to he used f gs a dust wallow The home-made dust j fxa can best be formed by nailing to gether two pieces of 12-Inch hemlock ) tmerd* In the form of n letter L. These Wbotild be four or five feet long. They ! can be placed In the corner, and by I Using the outer walls of the hutUttngs for tbe other two sides, they will fcS*m a bTbe ends can then be nailed to gienta on tbe wall and the box filled 'with dosing material. The sides of the • |>ox should he high enough to keep out fitter and other foreign material. In the feeding of poultry two Special Appliances are needed namely, troughs mrd hoppers There are many desirable manufactured types, usually made of a galvanised metal In fact there afe so many Narletles that the poultry man Is often at a logs to know which Is best, i tMetal feeding appliances are sanitary, twit relatively expensive It Is possible <o construct a large part of the equip - gnent at home with greater efficiency and at a minimum cost FY»r the feed tr.g of wet mash, sprouted oats, chopped Vegetables, etc fegd boxes or troughs gge necessary Common greenhouse flats.

By considering the following factors g-es*Mini to n successful dry mash hop per It is possible and easy to construct cme at home The hopper should be of ImTYc capacity, thus economising labor In firing A hopper holding from three to four bushels wi not require fUHng oftener that « rve» t*. or three weeks The hopper should t*e automa tic In operation, so that as fast as the birds eat the material a fresh supply will come down and take its place Hoppers with small throats have a tendency to nog and not teed properly. The feed tsig surface of the hopper shou'd l»e pro vided with a hinged cover, so that It can !*e closed whtn desired, especially at plght to keep out rats It Is also Im portant that tbs hoppers should not Waste ths food Self-feed'ng bopfMfrS, when In condition, are s very efficient means of feeding, hut If the hints waste Havre than they rat It becomes a very Inefficient practice The hopper should be easily and quickly filled, and It should have a large feeding surface so that a number of birds can eat from It •t ths same time Drinking Vessels- Drinking vessels Bit the poultry fork are of many types, some vacuum and •tome open. The vscuuqi fountain is usually of amah rapacity, hard to clean end easily Injured by free sing They are also relatively expensive, as most of them are patented The best drinking vessel for the poultry house Is a large heavyweight galvanised refrtg«**ab*r pan, which holds about a pail of water Such a pan, to bs efficient, should l*e placed WHITE WYANDOTTES V -- "«r Copyright 1915, By Louis Paul Graham. In an effort to produce a breed of fowls which would combine great egg laying qualities with good table quali ties a no-called general purpose fowl the resourceful American breeders have produced three great breed*!— Plymouth Hocks, Wyandot tea and R. L Reds. Of the several varieties of Wyan dotte*, the White is the most popular, not only among fanciers who pay enor mous prices for extra fine specimens, but also on utility poultry farms. Its great usefulness both as s layer and for table poultry makes It popu lar with the commercial breeder and there are many strains of this remar kable hen where the majority of the males lay 200 eggs or over per year. As table poulty It 1h preferred «lze to roasters, being ratable at all ages in on nn elevated platform about one and one-half feet from the ground. Over the pan can bo constructed a slanting roof nr guard to keep the birds from perching on the edge and soiling the water. Such a pan Ik relatively cheap, easy to clean, easy to fill, and is not readily Injured *von If the water freezes solid. The muslin curtains which are present In most modern poultry houses should always he made so that they can ho easlh and quickly lowered, and they should be so placed when they are raised up against the roof of the house that the birds cannot fly on them and hence soil them or conceal their eggs. An ex cellent practice Is to make the curtains In two putts, folding In the middle, and have them so hinged that they will fit up tight against the front wall above the opening The doors communicating from pen to pen should ho provided with stmng spring hinges so that they will swing either way, and they should he pArovtried with a friction catch to en able the poultry ms ii to go through the house pushing the doors ahead of him and not having to stop and see that they are properly closed A few’ min utes saved each day In this manner will in.ike many hours In the course of a year. Window Construction. All windows should he made of solid sash, should he hinged at the side and open around against the wall of the poultry house Such an arrangement not only allows of the entfre window being opened at ones, hut they are much less apt to get out of order, and are much more quickly and easily operated than the sliding weighted windows. Provide on the wall of the poultry house, just Inside by the door, one or two large hooks. In the form of harness hooks where can be kept a large heavy basket fo** cleaning the dropping boards. The hoe or rake used for cleaning the porches can also he kept hanging on this hook. A sweet potato hoe which has a long thin Made enables the doing of this work much quicker than a com mon ordinary garden hoe. A pitchfork for loosening up the litter, a broom for sweeping off the muslin curtain* and be* removing any dust or filth around the drinking fountains end hoppers com pletes the necessary appliances. A spike driven Into the wall about a foot or a foot and one half from the ground upon which mangel beets can be placed will eliminate ths need of purchasing of ex pensive hooks for hanging them from the celling Lastly, provide In a handy place In the poultry house a large smooth board made of soft pine upon which a record sheet can be kept This record sheet shou’d be so ruled that the poultryman can keep a record of eggs laid and feed consumed, ami hence l»e able to deter mine the profitableness of his work Any appliance which saves labor with out hindering efficiency should he a part of every poultry house equipment.

PRISONER CARE, WAR J SERVIA Already Has Hands Full Feed ing and Providing For Own People; Becoming Serious Problem. London. Jan. 10 (Correspondsnce of the Associated Press). —The care of prisoners taken in battle has become one of the most serious problems of the war in Sorvia, which already has Its hands full feeding and providing for Its own people. A Servian cap tain writes to one of the staff of tho legation here: “One can have too much of a good thing. We begin to understand why savages take no prisoners. But we are not savages nnd must feed and roof all these hostile visitors until the war 1s over. It is hemming a tremendous tax on our resources. "Rome of the Slav prisoners—and most of our prisoners are Slavs—are not ill disposed toward Servla, and a few of these we trust with the less important of the camp and battlefield.

WEEK IN COTTON Nfw Orleans. —The price of cotton continued to advance lust week without reactions of consequence, although a large element in the market expected a downward movement on the theory that the market was overbought. Buying was of a strong character amt appeared to he on nn investment basis. The net advance was 44 to 48 points. Bullish sentiment was stimulated by the large export movement, the move ment for the season up to Friday night aggregating 8,086,029 bales. Bulls de clared that engagements of p. ship ton nage were heavy enough to warrant the prediction that the total would be 4.- 000,600 bales before the middle of Feb ruary Mill takings for the week were iinex peetedly large, Hester putting them at 439.0'M) bales against 398,000 a jruT ago. Northern mill takings were estimated at 90,000 bales against 62,000 a year ago. The wheat market is being watched very closely by the South because the rise tn grain is thought by many to have a sympathetic influence on cotton and. It Is argued that this prlng the South mao. pant grain rather than cot ton. It is felt that further Vises in corn and oats will result in heavy planting of those crops on cotton land.
