HAS LARGE SCRATCHING SHED Main Part Devoted to That Purpose, Though the Hatching and Brooder Rooms Are Apportioned Due Space Open Front Is Good Feature of Building. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr. William A. Kadford will answer questions nnd Blve advice FKEE OP COST on nil subjects pertaining to the subject of building work on the (arm, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he Is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all Inquiries to William A. Rad ford, No. 1SZ7 Prairie avenue, Chicago. 111., and only Inclose two-cent stamp for reply. Keeping purebred poultry requires better buildings than were considered necessary for mongrel fowls so com mon a few years ago. Poultry associations are responsible for the wholesale breeding of valu able fowls, because the shows they hfre held and the gospel the members have preached has penetrated into overy section of the country. The result Is that a good many dif ferent kinds and sizes of poultry houses have been designed and built, nany of which aro thoroughly practi cal. One of these is a combination poul try house having a hatching room and a brooder room besides the regulation winter scratching floor, as shown In fjhe accompanying illustration. The main part of the building is devoted to the scratching shed, but the other com partments are valuable accessories. This building has a good solid con crete foundat'-n and a concrete floor. The scratching shed is built with three large openings in the front or south sid.-Instead of windows. These open ings aro covered with wire netting. If necessary, thin cotton may bo used over the wire. Inside there is a large scratching shed 19 feet square. In the back part of this room the roosts are supported by hanging wires suspended from the roof, so that the whole floor space may be covered with straw and used for scratching purposes. The roosts and nest boxes are all made easily removable, to be carried outdoors at housecleaning time, so that all the walls and the ceiling may be sprayed with whitewash or crude oil. The nest boxes, roosts and all other cnlcken-house furnlturo are treated to the same kind of a bath, after taking hem outside, and they are left to dry In the sun for several hours before be ing put back Into place In the house. This Is done frequently In warm weather and occasionally during the 'winter. The climate or length of the warm season has a good deal to do with the proper disinfection of the poultry house to keep It In proper condition The hatching room is provided with extra large nests, to' make room for a layer of sod In the bottom and plenty of straw to make the nests comforta ble. Sod holds moisture, so the eggs will hatch better. There are 28 of these nest boxes. They rest on the (loor and occupy all the wall space, -MBt- 3 -3CIATCtUNC m 13 W -t WUt NETTIHC 30- o - Floor Plan. leaving tho center part of the room for the attendant to move about and visit each hatching box every day. It Is a comfortable sight to see the biddies attending to business as close neighbors In these different little boxes. Rather closo attention is re quired, however, by the poultry woman during the Incubation season, because occasionally one of tho hens wanders from home, and that Is what makes trouble. These nest boxes during the fall and early winter are used for tho laying henB up to the time when incubation should begin After the brooding sea son In early spring tho same room comes In handy to bhelter an extra brood or two of chickens when tho other room the regular brooder room is overcrowded. From the hatching room the hens with their little broods are transferred to the brooder room in front There they aro furnished with separate brooder coops, where they can nurse their little families until they are old enough and strong enough to go Into one of tho colony houses. All tho furniture In the hatching room and broodor room Is made re movable, for ensy cleaning, the same as the movables In the large room. This Is a very important provision in ny poultry house, becauso It is occu- tow I EJttTtHMlMfct - io'xio' bi 1 1 1 ii 1 1 mmi s: I 1l UTTLE-CHlCK-m lO'x 10" v--" i U- pled for months nt a time by a large number of hens and chickens, so that It is absolutely necessary to conduct the details of tho business In such ft way as to dlscourago little Insects that are disposed to make themselves trou blesome, Tho general construction of tho building above the concrete founda tion Is of wood, built In the usual way, except that great care Is taken to havo tho Inside woodwork as smooth as pos sible, so It may bo easily treated with disinfectants to destroy all forms of llfo that aro not profitable. The roof of tho building is of tho usual gable-end pattern, with a rainy wenther pitch. In making tho roof tho rafters arc ilrst covered with roofing boards, then with building paper and shingles. The undersldo of tho collar beams and the lower part of tho rafters are celled with tongue nnd groove cell ing, carefully fitted at tho purlin Joints and at the plates to prevent openings that might form n lodgment for lice or mites. Tho whole Interior Is thoroughly well painted with threo coats of thin white lend paint, carefully rubbed into tho grain of tho wood, which makes tho inside of the house light and clean. It is easy to care for fowlB, oven though the house may be crowded, when provision Is made to keep tho place clean without unnecessary labor. Tho success of a poultry house de pends on little things, and there are a great many of them. The needs of a houseful of poultry aro numerous, but simple when the business Is well understood A good poultry man or woman Is not likely to neglect well-bred fowls In n well-built house, because there Is a great deal of pleasure In knowing that they are well cared for, nnd It Is not difficult to do. TURNING SMOKE INTO STEAM Leading Railroad Has Recently In stalled a New Device, Which Is Said to Be a Success. Due, it is said, to agitation which nearly forced the electrification of tho system, the Now York Central rail road at Englewood, III., haB Installed a Bmoke consumer which washes tho smoke before It is permitted to es- cape. Asbestos conduits nre suspend ed over the stalls of the engines, con necting with the smokestacks. These collect the smoke and carry If through a pipe to a large fan, which forces it into a concrete tank which contains hot water to the depth of 18 feet. When the smoke emerges It Is steam. The coloring matter has been taken out tar and soot and a little mois ture added which forms steam in stead of a colorless gas. This steam is then permitted to escape. The resi due, when skimmed off the water, looks like black lard. It is taken from the tank and stored In barrels. Although this waste contains 80 per cent of pure carbon, which is the ac tive principle in- coal, it cannot be used as fuel, according to the Tech nical World, Lecauso it Is divided Into such small particles that If an effort were made to burn it an ordinary draft would carry tho most of It up the smokestack. It Is said that It can bo used in the manufacture of paint, and some such use will probably ultimate ly be found for It. Nino barrels of tho black substance which formerly lodged In neighboring lace curtains is being collected dully. Klnsale. Kinsale, made forever memorable by the tragedy of tho Lusltanla, keeps a modest place In tho history of Ireland. It was here that Don Juan's fleet land ed 3,000 men to Join hands with O'Neill, out of which landing grew the story that tho cottages at World's End are "still Inhabited by the de scendants of Spaniards." It was from Kinsale that James II, on March 2, 16S9, landed, and from KinBale he sailed after his defeat at the battle of tho Doyne. Thirty years ago tho houso in which he spent the night before his departure was still In existence. Kin sale was greater in the past than now, for we read that "of all the Irish ports It was the best situated for In tercourse with France, and that In the town Marlborough found a thousand barrels of wheat and 80 pipes of claret." Tyranny of the Senses. Those of us who give ourselves up to the senses strengthen our prison. Each day wo add new bolts and bars. Tho time Is sure to come when wo shall realize our folly. Somo particu lar sense, perhaps, after mastering us, will turn nnd gloat and Jeer. Though once seemingly a friend, It has been In disgulso the deadliest ot enemies. Now Is the moment for us to strike for freedom. Tho strong souls know. Their example ought to give us courage. The weak souls know, too. Through failure to strike they may havo abandoned themselves to lifelong distress. Exchange. New Une for Cocoanut Oil Recently cocoanut oil has been used as tho basis for tho manufacture of a "condensed milk" said to bo chem ically indistinguishable from con densod cow's milk, and claim Is ad vanced that an excellent cocoanut oil "cheoso" will shortly bo placed on the market. Cocoanut lard Is highly ap preciated by Mohammedans, whose re ligion forbids them ualng auy product derived from the hog. FINAL NOTICE. State Tax Suit for Year 1912 Final Notice.
