Market quotations on capons usually begin In November and are several cents more a pound than those for cockerels, especially 1 rfv. for the lioliduv trade.

UNIQUE HEADGEAR During the summer months It Is very easy to neglect the waterers and feeders. As the chicks approach maturity. It becomes constantly easier for them to step In nnd roost upon the waterers and feeders. This Increases danger of contamination. Disease also is spread by the working In of dirt and filth from the floor or ground, Into the waterers and feeders. This danger can be lessened considerably by keeping clean feed and water before the chicks at all times and by placing the feeders and waterers so that chicks will not mix in the dirt. two-Inc- ' J , ; ''it' v; k .

Last year when It became necessary to put up a new poultry house at the university, Dakan decided to make the floor Just like most farmers would do It. In other words, I hey leveled off the soil as best they could, first making sure that the floor was higher than the outside surface. Then they put down a layer of tar paper to keep the water from rising from below, then h put down a layer of concrete. And all last winter this proved to be one of the dryest of the poultry house floors. 1 Kill Red Mite. Red mites can be controlled more easily by starting early thnn If hot weather comes before we start, says R. L. Cochran, Iowa State college poultryman. In warm weather the mites multiply very rapidly and are hard to get rid of. They can live for months without food and live by sucking blood. It Is certain they will stunt or kill young chickens and stop' hens from laying. Four days after the female mite lays her egg It hatches and the young mite starts his career. iv:::,;::- Laura Martin of Washington, D.
