Kllth isii'l just tilth, and the tad amell Isn't the worst of It. Filth menus iniiltiplyiia; microbes, and with poultry that means tuberculosis, chol era, enteritis, white diarrhea, turkey blackhead. Filth is the hret.tler of Riiptnvorms. tapeworms, round worms nnd the scaly let,' pnnislte. A hen can't roost above dropplmrs und breathe the poisonous air without detriment, nor can tender chicks und turkey poults sleep In filthy co"tis or run on filthy pound nnd live or normal ly develop. Feed and water contaminated with filth are killers. This is an iif-'e when the word sanl tary has become ordinary. Sanitation Is preached everywhere. Sanitation ns applied to poultry, i vounit nnd old, means keep the house ( they live nnd sleep In clean, keep the j ,,..u..ii iimr ..lit nml drink from clean. keep the Kroiind on which they eat and run clean, and keep the fowls them selves as far ns possible free from ver min. Such preventive measures, coupled with pure food rtj-'titly fed to vigorous stock, insures maximum success. Great mortality anions chicks Is nearly ulways the result of neelect of one or more of these promotions. We have seen parties buy liltrh priced ews from most vigorous pure bred stock and raise the worst of culls from the hatch because they raised them on the hoc pen plan, hut of course the fan cier who sold the eKK was blamed. Many people keep flocks that don't pnv because they think It doesn't pay lo take time to treat them decently, but if anything is worth doing at all It Is worth doing riht.

Vet If these snuie fellows net show coop 13 or arc nsked to hike room No. 13 nt a hotel, most of them quickly get cold feet. Funny, Isn't it? Not counting feather beds, we bun dred , million Americans pillow our heads on 11 bout liuO.OOO.ooO pounds of feathers every night. These fenthere wear out nt the rate of about 20,000, imm) pounds per year und that much pillow sttitting must be renewed every year. Now, we ought to gather that quickly from the millions of fowls eat en in this country, but no, we AmetT tins are such frenzied feather flnnn lers that we throw millions of pounds f feathers 011 the dump and go and import vast quantities from foreign countries Hotter call the fool killer. "Home was not built In a day.'' That's a sentence from your old school graiiiniar, lint it applies to tunny proj ects today. You can't expect to build up 11 big poultry business and make big money the first year. Whoever heard of a mlllloiin Ire poultrymau? Did you? There's nmney In tt, but not n million unless you break the record. Pennsylvania has tunny big Leghorn farms along t tie New York line. These hip their eggs across to those cirg lov ing New orkers, wno are so stucK on while shelled e'gs that they pay from " to 7 cents extra for them. Michael Bowley of Powers I.nne, Mil., claims to have America's oldest hen. it wns given him when he was 1 liaby and is twenty years old. A hen of such antiquity need not fear that she will go to chicken heaven by the cook pot route unless she belongs to a preacher. Fowls of breed shape mid standard size are only produced year after year from pure bred, healthy, vigorous stock Strong eonstit utlon Is the foun dation of strong reproductive power and is only achieved by careful breed ing for n term of years The statement "All stock nnd eggs sold only from the farm" Is appear ing In many poultry advertisements. Yes. farm raised sto.-k and eggs cer tainly have the bulge on what Is pro duced by the city lot canary cage plan. A well grounded knowledge of the poultry business, willingness to work, a fair amount of working capital and ability to buy nnd sell are the chief requisites for successful entry Into the IHitiltry business. It Is necessary also to state man or woman tn single hnr ness in this business Is n dismal fall ure When the little Leghorn roosters' combs turn over "flop" look for life Head lice will cause that, as will rowding. colds, had air from fllthy quarters and lasutlt.-ieiit or tnnutrl 'Ions feed.
