A number of poultry flocks aro being troubled with roup. This is moro often caused by overcrowding than by not having warm enough , quarters. Each bird should bo al lowed not less than four square feet of floor space. If you find that somo of tho flock has roup or colds, scparato theso from your flock and provide some provision for amplo ventilation. I'owis need a continual supply or. fresh air, but must bo protected from direct wind or draught, y Proper ventilation is tho first essential to tho ncalth o" Mills. Birds confined in pens from day tq day should bo led graiiu which aro scattered in a deep straw litter. A viy good scratch mixture is, two parts cracked corn (by weight); ono part of good heavy oats and nno port larley. ' It should also bo kept in mind that a dry miah mixture should b kept before tho birds at all times in a box or hopper. A dry mash hopper should constitute part of tho cquip mont of ovory poultry house. This is an ausoluto in&uranco against un derfeeding.
