We insure all shipments., Our pricea encourage purchase-- BOYD JEWELERS BOYD PARK. BLDG T06 MAIN (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The most prepossessing hen Is not always the most Industrious layer. She may be the loudest cackler, but if her owner uses trap nests she cannot fool him. He can check up on results. The trap nest Is so arranged that when the hen enters she is confined until released by the attendant. Specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture say that trap nests may be used to advantage by the best breeders of hens. It adds mechanical precision to judgment and experience In developing the flock and maintaining it at a high standard of egg production. It tames the birds and tends to stimulate laying. It furnishes definite knowledge of the traits and hab- - serve as a top. If the nest is placed on the wall, slats or wire at a sharp angle should extend from the front of the nest to the wall to prevent hens from roosting on the top. The trap nest is so constructed that, when" the hen enters, her back raises the door. This releases the catch or trigger and allows the door to close. The catch, regulated by a screw or nail at the lower Inside edge, should be set so that It just holds the door. It should have a washer on the screw to prevent sticking, and a guard to keep away the nesting material. A variation may be made for large or small hens by shortening or lengthening the catch which .supports the door or by. adjusting the size of the , notch In the door itself. The following directions are given by the departments poultry specialists for constructing a ' , trap est : , ' lnch boards for ends Cut four and partitions, 12 inches wide by 19 inch boards, Inches long; enough 39 inches li Hg, laid lengthwise, to cover the top, back and bottom; and Inches long and 1 one strip, 39 inches wide, for the front of the nests. Cut three pieces of, lnch boards, 12 inches long and 3 inches high, to 'hold the nesting material away from the nt . ' -- -- -- door. Nail the top, 'back and bottom to the ends and partitions, Insert the strips in the nests, and make the . r guard, nailing it to the left side of the ' avoas nest.

The trap nest may be placed on the walls of the pen or attached to the underside of the dropping board. If the latter course is taken, the front, of the nest should face the pen. The rear may be made of wire to allow- good will board ventilation. The dropping Attach to thp front of the nests a narrow strip upon which the hens can jump. Place a button or block of wood on the front of each partition to hold the door when the nest Is closed. : If ye nests are to be placed directly below the dropping board, a wire top should.be used with a strip of wtd on the front edge of the top to stiffen them. WINTER SHELTER FOR DUCKS MAKE WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS Fowls Must Be Furnished With Some Protection Against Cold Rains and Snow. Tendency to Eradicate Disease in 'Areas Containing Many Farma la Latest Development. Although adult ducks are so well protected by tneir feathers that they can stand a great deal of dry( cold .weather, the breeding birds miist be furnished protection from the 'cold winter rains and snows and they must have a dry floor on which to roost. ' Therefore a suitable shed or building should be made available for the fowls The before the coming of winter. building may be quite simple In construction and much less expensive f. than one for hens.
