In the grounds at the rear, was a cockpit, where on one occasion, according to local tradition, was fought a main between birds owned by the prince and others belonging to Colonel McMahon and Doctor Marable, the stakes being one thousand guineas for each of the seven battles and five thousand guineas the main.

"It has been found that by prolonging the period of light during winter days a hither aver age egg production will he obtained than when artllicial light Is not used." There nre three methods of artificially lighting the henhouse by the use of an automatic clock. I'robahly the most popular method Is that of turning on the lights between 4 nml 5 a. m. and keeping them on until daylight The morning scratch feed Is scattered in the litter the night before.

Because of their feeding habits, biting lice can be destroyed by the use of stomach poisons, such as sodium fluoride, dusted into the cout of the animal or bird, lilting lice are the only type affecting fowls, hence this powder Is very effective In treating them. These poisons, however, are worthless in treating sucking lice. HoYe either contact poisons or oily preparations must be used. Hogs harbor only sucking lice and are usually treated by dipping or hand dressing with crude petroleum equal parts of kerosene and cottonseed oil or 6ome similar Oils, while effective preparation. In destroying lice on horses and cuttle, are objectionable, becnuse of the messy condition In which the cout Is left and because oils used freely tend to cause a loss of hair, especially In horses. Coal tar dips are effective, cheap and easily applied. They should be used with caution, however, In cold weather because of likelihood of chilling the animal and danger of pneumonia.
