HOUSE PLANNING CONTEST [ @ ® ETWEEN now and June 1, ‘when the contest closes, many ‘Wisconsin farmers and their wives and children will de- vote spare hours to the draw- ing of plans for what they consider the best all-round farm house," in accord- ance with the rules governing.the Wis- consin farm home planning contest,as amnounced by the Wisconsin college of agriculture. . It is expected that many helpful sug- gestions will be received from people who know from experience what com- fort and convenience with the least necessary expenditure of money means. Helping save steps for the housewife, making the rooms bright, cheery, and attractive, and adding little details of a practical nature which will be wel- comed by farmers is the thing expect- ed from contestants. g An association of building material dealers has offered prizes to make the contest more attractive: It is the intention of the committee in charge of the contest to use the best plan as a model for a farm home to be erected soon on ‘the grounds of the col- lege of agriculture. - @ POULTRY SUGGESTIONS By a Correspondent If you live in a northern climate. the poultry house should be sheeted, papered and clapboarded on the out- side, with lath and plaster upon the inside, using some cement in your mor- tar so it will not crack from the damp- ness. Then put in your doors and windows tight but so that you can open them when needed. Put a venti- lating shaft in the center, leaving open- ings in top and bottom. This will give sufficient ventilation, but if more is needed you can open the windows. The _points to be observed are to have the house so that it can be properly venti- lated and also made warm in winter, and tight enough so that it can be fumigated in summer. In the summer you will find that your roosts and walls will be more or less covered with vermin. If you were traveling in California during - the months of July and August, you would see fruit lying out on trays in the open and your first thought would be of their exposure to insects. If you will go up to the cutting and preparing sheds, you will find that each tray when it is filled is placed upon a small car, until the pile of trays is four or five feet high and then this car is pushed into a smokehouse where the fruit is smoked with brim- stone until it is insect proof. This pro- tects the fruit from the ravages of all insects. Now take a hint from the California fruit grower. Go drive all of your poultry from the coop in the morning and take two pounds of brimstone, burn it in an old iron kettle and close your coop tight. Keep the coop closed until noon, then open the doors and windows and allow the coop to air out. Three hours is sufficient time. If your old coop has been very bad you will need to repeat this once a month for three months. After they are once eradicated twice a year will keep your poultry absolutely free from. vermin. F. C. ROBINSON, Groton, S. D. FLAX FOR CALF FEED In feeding the dairy calf, the aim is to cut down the period of whole milk feeding. At the North Dakota experi- ment station, two lots of 4 calves each were fed as follows: Whole milk first three weeks both lots. From then on, lot A was fed % whole milk and 14 skim milk till six months old. Lot B, after three weeks old were fed skim milk with flax seed. Just enough flax was added to supply as much fat as was given the calves in lot A in their whole milk. Each calf was given two gallons_of milk a day. The whole milk calves made the best gains the first three months but during-the next three months the skim milk calves nearly caught up, the four lacking but 15 pounds of weighing as much as the whole milk calves and several expert cattle men who examined the two lots pronounced the calves in lot B in as thrifty a condition as those in lot A. - The saving in using skim milk and flax in place of the whole milk amounted to $19.00 per calf for the six-month period. The grain and hay cost the same for both lots.—Ex. Dept. N. D. Agri. college. THIRTEEN ADVERTISEMENTS FACTORY ADDRESSS ALLEN MOTOR CO.
