M. Hurd 'of the New York State College of Agriculture. Roosting helps to prevent crowding and allows the Individual chicken more freedom of action and better air. Uncrowded pullets make better growth. Clean and disinfect the houses and supply them frequently with fresh litter. Shavings, oat straw, or sand make the best covering for the floor ' during the summer. When more than one house Is In use take care that too many pullets do not form the habit of roosting In one building. The buildings should be at least 100 feet apart to help keep the birds evenly distributed. It Is not advisable to try to house more than 125 growing pullets in one colony house. Provide good ventilation on hot nights. In addition to the regutar ventilators take out the glass sash in the front of the house. To prevent possible infestation from red mites paint the perches and side walls close by with carbolineum, or spray the colony houses several times during the summer with a mixture of equal parts of crude carbolic add and kerosene. When there are many hatches and several weeks difference In their ages, provide each hatch ,witb a separate range, or place the houses farther apart than for groups of the same age. Otherwise older pullets will annoy the young and prevent normal growth. , Fireless Cooker Good Idea for Egg Layers Its Hens need warm water. cheap- er for you to warm it on the fire than to make the hen warm It with expensive feed.

Golden Delicious is also a wopder-Yu- l apple, fully as fine In quality and flavor as the red and striped strains, and also a good keeper. The trees are very vigorous, and make rapid growth in a few years. It is not at all uncommon for them to bear apples the third or fourth year after being set out, or even sooner If given good care and carefully pruned and sprayed.
