Plenty of pure water should be at the disposal of the chickens at all times. The best turkey pasturage, ac- cording to Cushman, is dry land, without shade, having short grass. It is the early hatched pullets that produce eggs in the fall and early winter when prices are high. EE R AL LRl B R e e e i e e e e e LR R KR R R R R HARDENING OFF THE BROODER CHICKS Unless chicks are hardened to out- side conditions there is apt to be serl- ous loss when they are moved from the brooder to the poultry or colony house, writes a correspondent of the American Agriculturist. The actual process of “hardening off” is begun at the end of the first week or ten days after hatch- ing. From the first I see that enough tresh air is admitted to the brooder to prevent a hot, close atmosphere. At the end of a week or a little more I be- gin to gradually lower the temperature under the hover until at the end of the third or fourth week but little artificial heat is supplied. The amount of heat and the length of time it is required depends on the weather and the time of year, but ordinarily I am able to dis pense with it entirely when the chicks are a month old, often considerably be: fore. As I begin to lower the temperature I admit more and more fresh air and induce the chicks to stay out more dur- ing the day. They are fed outside and given free range. Usually they will range a long distance from the brooder, scratching and digging like old chick- ens, coming in only to eat now and then unless the day is damp or unusu- ally chilly. This gives me hardy. The accompanying cut shows a brooder coop suitable for young chicks. When the sun is out the ‘wire run offers plenty of space for exercise, and here they may be fed. It weather turns cold the young- sters should be kept in the brooder coop. thrifty chicks that naturally outgrow the need of the brooder and adapt themselves to less sheltered conditions. I have found it as bad to leave the chicks too long in the brooder as to remove them too soon. Usually my chicks are ready at about four weeks old, although early In the season 1 generally have to leave them a week or two longer. Sometimes I find it best to move from the first brooder to a larger and less close one for a week or two before making the final change. When I do this I usually move the first time at about three weeks. This Is especially good with the early broods and where the first brooder is crowded. and will make an attractive, useful ornament for the “little lady’s” dressing table.

In a very short time my brooder chicks require no more protection than is ordinarily provided for the young flock. Quarantine New Birds. Newly purchased breeding stock should always be quarantined for sev- eral days after arrival, says the Coun- try Gentleman. The birds may have been in perfect health upon delivery at the railroad station of their previous owner, but the exposure that frequent- | 1y occurs during transit is quite apt to cause diseased conditions that might menace the health of the entire home . flock. Protect Young Chicks. Extra care and attention must be given to the early broods of chickens, such as to feed them often and see that they are well protected from cold and storms, but you will be well repaid for this extra trouble when the fall and winter shows come, for it is invariably the early hatched chickens that carry off the blue ribbons.
