IR SUITABLE HOUSE FOR FOWLS Hons Should Be Comfortable, With Floor Space of 3 or 4 Square Feet SRR for Each Bird. % [Prepared by the United States Depart- ! ment of Agriculture,) The poultry flock should be: comfort- ably but not expApsively housed. A house which provides a floor space of #3 or 4 square feet per bird is'ample for the purpose, and fowls are-often: suc- cessfully’ kept with. an allowance no greater than' 214 to 8 square feet. ] -Housés must be dry and free from draft,” but’ must allow " ventilation. Ofteén there is an unused shed:or small puilding on the place which can easily be converted into a chicken house, The front_of the poultry house should-be faced toward the south, if possible, 80 that the sun will shine into it. - Per- tectly satisfactory houses can be made <cheaply from piano boxes. or.’other packing cases. Two piano boxes with the backs. removed can be nailed to- gether and a door cut in the end. These boxes should be covered with a roofing paper in order to keep the house dry and to:make it wind-proof.. A portion. of the door-should be:left open or cov-, ered with, i ce, of . muslin, so-as to itnilar houses can, cases at a chaged-for framing. ~The box boards;| . canbe applied for siding or shenthing ed “with roofing' paper. | ce. it 18 d of this by bullding fhe'p‘ou‘%ry 4n the corner of the fence, the fence itself, with the ¢ ered b ps or battened, ser one side of the house. . “house 8 by: juare 2 by 4inch’pl¢ces and 12- fnch boards.

The boards are run up and down and add suffi- cient stiffness to the house. They are used also for the roof and covered with roofing paper. The back and sides of the house also can be covered with roofing paper, or the cracks can be covered with wooden battens or strips 1% ‘to 3 inches wide. In'the front of the house there should be left a win- dow or opening which can be closed, when desired, by a muslin_screen or curtain which serves as a protection against bad weather but allows venti- lation. In the side a door should be provided which will allow entrance. A shed or single-slope roof is best be- cause-easiest to build.
