Show THE RICH COUNTY REAPER, RANDOLPH, UTAH AUTO IN PLACE OF CAMEL TRAIN IN THE DESERT SANITARY BROODER HOUSE IMPORTANT Clean Well Before Chicks Are Placed in It. By H. 0. Gauger, Professor In Poultry partment, North Carolina State College. WNU Service. De- The greatest chick losses occur during the brooding period which makes it necessary to clean the house thoroughly before the chicks are placed in it. To go about having a sanitary brooder house the poultryman should first scrape all the old manure and dirt from the lower side walls and floor of the house and clean the water containers, mash hoppers and other equipment used in the house. After this thorough mechanical cleansing has been done, the lower side walls, floor, water containers, feeding equipment, brooder stove and canopy should be scrubbed with a lye solution made by dissolving one pound of lye in ten gallons of hot water. A stiff bristle broom may be used to apply the solution. This lye mixture will not only further cleanse the house but it also has Where the power. poultryman has a fire gun, he may use this instead of the lye solution. After the brooder house has been thoroughly cleaned, it must be cleaned again at Intervals during the brooding period. If the house has a dirt floor, remove the top few Inches and replace it with clean dry soil, sand or gravel. The use of wire frames on which to place the feeders and water containers Is also advised. The house needs 'to be free from drafts and if It Is movable, It is well to take it to a new germ-killin- g Little by little the automobile is replacing the camel as the freight nd passenger carrier of the Near East and African deserts. The newest automobile train put into service carries 85 passengers and three tons of freight from Damascus to Bagdad in 18 hours, as compared to the 10 days or two weeks, ordinarily required by camels. Here is an instance of a modern form of transportation competing with one of the oldest forms still in use. Camel trains have been journeying over the deserts south of the Mediterranean since the dawn of history. Egypt and Chaldea once exchanged goods across the Arabian wastes In this way. Later the Persians, then the Romans, and finally nomads from Asia controlled the routes. When Europe was plunged into the darkness of the Middle ages, the enlightened Mohammedans supervised a busy and prosperous traffic in the desert lands, as amazed Crusaders discovered. Long before the Portuguese found the water route to India the camels had busied themselves carrying supplies of spices and precious goods northward from the ports of the Red sea and the Persian gulf. Right down to the present time this dependence upon the camel has continued. The railroads which were Dosing the flocks with drugs will not result in more eggs. That Is the conclusion of the poultry department of Michigan Agricultural college. Egg production is a matter of inherited characteristics and of proper feeding. Mongrel birds are very apt to be unprofitable and hens which are compelled to forage for their living have little time to fill the egg basket Drugs do not change the factors Inherited by hens nor do they supply needed food elements so the possibility of nostrums affecting ey; pro- t duction are very remote. Dr. H. E. Moskey, United States Department of Agriculture, says positively that no known drug or combination of drugs will increase egg production. Rations for laying flocks must supply the food elements needed to maintain the body weight of the hen, to supply warmth and energy, and to supply the material contained in the eggs themselves. Good grains, green feeds, milk, shell, and grit furnish all the materials needed by the laying hen. Diseased hens should be treated for the malady with which they are afdisfected, and, in case of contagious orders, proper sanitary Lake in the Your local dealer carries Ferrys Pure Bred Vegetable Seeds.
