POULTRY HOUSES
j Success in raising and keeping
fowls, and particularly in getting
i winter eggs, depends as much upon
the poultry houses as upon the stock,
their care and feeding. The three
essentials of a good hou.se are that
it shall he dry, receive plenty of
sunshine and ventilation without
drafts. Any house that will pro
vide these things should prove suc
cessful, no matter what the form of
construction or the design.
' The first consideration in building
' a poultry house is its location, ac
cording to Farm and Home. It is
important to have well drained soil
so that the ground around it will be
located near the dwelling house, for
much of the work of caring for the
poultry usually devolves on the wo
man members of the family. A
sunny location, well sheltered from
the north winds, is highly desirable.
Dryness in the house itself is the
first essential. Next to actual star
vation nothing is surer to reduce
the egg yield and affect the health
of the fowls than dampness in the
house. Wet yards mean cold, dirty
feet, and this in turn results in
dirty eggs and less of them. If the
site is not dry, it should be under
drained. In any case the founda
tion should be high enough above
grade to prevent the entrance of
surface water. On dry soil a drirt
floor may be used, although this be
comes foul if not removed and re
newed each year. A good double
board floor or one of concrete is the
best.
Good ventilation is essential, but
it must be without drafts. If the
building is tight on three sides and
overhead with no cracks at the
eaves or sill, there will be no diffi
culty with drafts. If one or more
window openings or a part of the
front is co.ered with muslin cloth,
it will keep out the wind during the
cold weather and at the same time
permit a good circulation of air
without blowing on the fowls.
Plenty of sunshine in winter and
spring is the third essential. This
is abundantly provided for in the
two compartment house which can
be thrown almott entriely open and
the building flooded with light, yet
there is not so much glass that it
will become very heated in the day
time, and likowise excessively cold
at night. At least GO per cent of
the house should consist of openings
covered by glass and cloth.
ELEOTKIG
Why not have your house wired for electric lights? It
is to your interest, not only for your own couveuience
but for protection from fire. Over ten per cent of the
fires in dwellings last year in the U. S. v. ere caused by
kerosene lamps and two per cent from electric wires.
