CONSTRUCTION OF HEN HOUSE More Fowls Can Be Kept on Small Floor Area Under Colony Than on Intensive System. (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) A house constructed for the conven- lemce of the attendant will have enough cubic alr space provided 2 to § square feet of floor space is allowed per fowl. Fresh air should be se- «<ured by ventilation rather than by furnishing a larger amount of cubic [ir space than is required for the con- venience of the attendant. The neces- sary amount of floor space depends wupon the system, on the size of the pens, the weather conditions, and the Size of the birds. More birds can be kept on a small floor area under the -colony than on the intensive system, where the colony system is used in & mild climate and the hens have free range throughout most of the year.

To make the fixture more attrac- tive, if possible, a brass band had been hired from the nearest town to play during an important match of the Studfurrow football club. A goodly crowd assembled in the meadow, but the musicians failed to materialize. After watching the football for about half an hour a bucolic-locking gentleman, who had been giving vent to frequent snorts of disgust, made his way to the gate and indig- nantly demanded his money back. “Never seen 2 match before to- day,” he explained, “and I never want to see another! Them football- ers are too jealous for my liking; they don’t give the band a chance!” “But the band isn’t here!” ob- served the gatekeeper. “There’s one of ’em come, at any rate,” came the answer. “That chap with the whistle yonder; but as soon as ever he starts to give a tune the footballers stop playing and threaten H.

It is that of using browned rye for the “beverage that cheers but ‘does not mebriate.” The grains of rye are roasted to a light brown color, ground and then used in the same way ax cotfee.
