The following letter, addressed to the Secretary of the National Sanitarium Association, Toronto, from the Rectory, Nora-00d, Ont, and signed by Rev. 1’. McKee McLennen, a. well-known Angli- can minister of the province, needs no comment of ours. It reeds: “I desire to secure the admission into the Free Hospital for Consumptives at Graven- hurst of a. young women, a. member of my parish. The case is a. very sad one, end if help can at once be given, a. pro- misine: life can be saved. Three years ago the mother died of consumption. Since that time it has been my painful duty to bury two of the sons with the same disease. 'Now Annie, aged about seventeen, and a boy of fourteen, are all that remain of the famili. The poor girl has been in Muskoka, carding ata private house, waiting to be admitted. She returned home last week, and within twenty-four hours of her return her father dropped dead in his buggy while driving into Norwood. The case is surely one that must appeal to the eym- pathies of everyone, and yet, I fear, only one of the many that are constantly coming under your notice.” [Note.â€"-Readersâ€"and may their num- ber be manyâ€"who desire to assist in this worthy work may send their gifts to Sir Wm.

The de. mand for every class shows a strik. ing increase during the last few years Mr. F. C Hare. Chief of the Domin. ion Poultry Division, does not be- lieve it possible for the farmers to rear, for at least five years to come, more utility-type chickens than can be sold with profit on the Canadian markets alone. Moreover. commis sion merchants in Great Britain can handle profitably at least $1 000.000 worth of our poultry yearly. Last year the export of chickens to Great Britain was materially reduced on account of a great demand in Canada. . l'I‘he poultry eXports from Canada to‘ Great Britain were only 8160.516. a small proportion of the $5,154 092 in- ported by the Mother Country. The greatest value of poultry was export. ed from Russia. Belgium, France and the United States. Each of these countries shipped over $1 000.000 worth. It is short-sighted policy on the part of our farmers to neglect this industry, when there is an un- satisfied demand for poultry; infor- mation with regard to any b'ranch of the business can be had gratis, and I the business is a profitable one; It will pay almost every farmer to improve his flock before the breeding season begins. The old [owls should be killed. 'l‘here is a greatly in» creased profit in breeding fromutility type specimens rather than from common barn-yard stock. It is pre- ferable to select the eggs for batch- ing from a breeding pen of the best ten or twelve hens and one cocherel rather than from the larger number of laying hens on the farm. As a general rule, the eggs that are incub- ated on the farm are the eggs from the poorer layers. A utility type Plymouth Rock cockerel should be bought and placed at the head of the breeding pen. A great improvement :will be noticed in any flock of farm fowls by crossing with the Plymouth Rock. The eggs for hatching should be kept in a cool place (40 to 60 degrees) The chickens should not be hatched later than the middle of June. May- hatched chickens are preferable, It is quite possible for almost every farmer to increase the number of chickens reared with little extra labor. Sitting hens should not be allowed to hatch chickens in any place they choose. about the farm buildings. They should be in one pen. set apart for this purpose. The next boxes should be made Without a floor and placed around the sides of the pen. Two or three shovelfuls of earth should be thrown into each nest box! and a hollow space SCOOped out for the e"'£_:3°. the earth should be covered sparin _15 with straw. A board is . v. required'ln front of the nest to con- fine the hen at will. This nest will give outdoor conditions in an indoor pen. The sitting hen should be thoroughly dusted with sulphur to kill the vermin. All of them should be fed on whole grain and grit. and watered at one time. The hens should be placed on the nests and ,closed in when they finish feeding. It is advisable to start several hens together. The infertile eggs can then be tested out on the ninth day and one or more of the hens reset. There is a great lossin farm reared' chickens. caused by the mother hen having herliberty. The hen wanders through the wet. grass; the chickens follow her and become chilled and the 4 weaker ones die' This loss can be prevented by confining the hens in a. brood coop. It is more satisfactory to have a large brood coop that will be a shelter during inclement weath~ er. A packing; box of three or four feet, each dimension, is none too large. The cover of the box can be used for the floor. The box is re- versed (Open end on the ground) and an opening one foot high is made across one side of the box against the open end. Two one inche by two inch cleats are nailed on the two ends of the box at the ground; the cover or floor is reduced in size so that it will slide in on these sleats. This allows the floor to be removed for cleaning. The box should be lined with tar paper to make it water- tight and there should be a 10 by 14 pane of glass in the front, this glass should slide in cleats for ventilation. In front of the one foot opening at the ground there should be a crate 15 inches high covered with lathe, two inches apart. The hen comes out into the lath crate to be fed and watered; the chickens run through the lathe. This form of map will house safely one hen and 30 chickens. The number of coops is thus reduced. The hen and chickens should be placed in a grass field. This will pro- duce the mortality due to the chick ens being reared on infected ground around the farm buildings. A num. her of cases have been reported to the Poultry Division of chickens and turkeys dying because of feeding on ground previously infested by diseased fowls. Roaring Chichens on the Farm.
