FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1916. GARING FOR POULTRY IN HOT WEATHER Through the hot months poultry re- quires as much care, only in a differ- ent way, as poultry in winter time, writes a correspondent of the Iowa Homstead. Laying hens, frying chicks and the tiny ones, too, require lots of cool, fresh water often through the day, just the same as people. The drinking vessels should be cleaned ev- ery morning before the poultry are turned out, and they should be filled with pure water. This should be re- peated agaln at noon or sooner. The drinking troughs should be kept in a shady place all through the day. There should be plenty of shade for fowls through the hot summer time, and they must be provided with it if “ natural shade is not available for any degree of success., Hens will not lay that are kept out in the broiling sun from sunup to sundown. Little chicks cannot thrive without shade, although they require a moderate amount of sunshine to be healthy and strong. They must be sheltered from the hot noonday sun through the hot months. We find that hens must have a graln feed at least once a day even if they have free range if eggs are to be ex- pected through the hottest months, Of course we do not feed them near so much of any kind of feed In summer as In winter, but a small amount of grain fed twice a day will promote the egg yleld. Milk may be fed in abun- After separating the sexes, If the cockerels are not intended for ca- pons, they should be fattened quick- ly and sent to market as broilers. ‘When a cockerel reaches the weight of two pounds he is In good shape for market and brings a good price. The plcture shows a well dressed broller. 0 Tmnce through the summer season if it is to be had. Milk in any stage is good for the chicks and hens. Keeping things clean is another item not to be neglected through the hot days if the health of the flock be re- garded. Sulphur should be sprinkled in the nests of the little ones to keep lice and mites away. Lice thrive in filthy nests and brood coops, and strong measures must be employed to keep them down to be sue- cessful with poultry in summer time. Pulverized tobacco mixed with sulphur half and half, to be used as a powder upon lousy fowls, we have found to be excellent. We have also found that black oak bark kept in the drinking water, adding a few drops of carbolic acid once or twice a week, works won- ders in keeping down bowel trouble among the chicks and is good for hens. A pile of charcoal kept by the drink- Ing vessels will help to keep fowls in a healthy condition in hot weather as well as cold and is really necessary, as the young chicks are more apt, as well as the old ones, to have an acid condi- tlon of the system in summer than in svinter. Pure coal oil poured upon the perch In the henhouse will rout the lice an mites, and the cleaning out of the manure every few days with a liberal sprinkling of lime in and around the § henhouse will keep down all bad odors. s PHEPIRIIDERRROBBRE CHICKEN CHATTER.

Duck feathers are worth about 35 cents a pound, and goose feathers range from G5 cents a pound for white to 50 cents for mixed. Capons grow faster and take on more flesh and weight for the food consumed than do elther cockerels or pullets. Summer shade insures thrifty chicks. Do not keep unnecessary male birds. An estra hen eats no more and may lay eggs. & N = - PPEBHIIRBBREODERBD PPPPPRREDRRRR BB R DD W PYYIE TR T2 X2 22 S04 b You can get & big, fat pencil tab- let for a nickle at the Pioneer office, and an extra big, fat ink paper com- position book for a dime.
