This is agMiistake. The birds give off consid- erablé moisture during the night and if it is conflned to the roosting section the birds will_be sleeving under damp con- ditions. This will induce colds just as much as a house that is generally damp. 1t is also objectionable to have them con Greensboro, Champion, (of Geor- Comfort :Your Skin With Cuticura Soap anduFragrant Talcum Ze. everywhira. les T Deph ¥, Maldon Mate fined &0 closely in a space permeated with vapor from the dropping boards.qIt is Wor CeSter MEAT SCRAP WRITE FOR BOOKLET orcester Rendering Co/Mrs. .

It has already been estab- lished as the largest winter expesition and educational gathering in New Eng- land, This year there i§ to be added a state poultry show, an exhibit of a thou- sand coops, whick=Sfould materially in- crease the attendance. O. H. Benson, head of the junior bu- Teau for the eleven. eastern states, will have a large display made by the boys and girls engaged in the various club activities. There will be several club members in attendance to demonstrate the practical education which their con- nection With these clubs has given them. Many other features will maké this & worthwhile winter meeting. The exvositicn is cntfraly cudcational and in no way an undertaking for profit. In-‘one sense it is a charitable affair, a large number contributing their valua- ble time.

Tt was said that approximately $9,000 would be raised in thig way in order to promote the sale of pure and undiluted milk. . E.
