SOME GOOD POINTS IN POULTRY HOUSE Sh eep Club. Better insulation has brought the greutest Improvement of all to the poultry bouse, says Successful Farm ing. Insulntlou reduces the harmful effects of the extremes of cold and heat and makes ttie house more com fortable at all temperatures. The "straw loft” house became popular because It provided a cheap and ef ficient roof Insulation, a point large ly neglected In the earlier houses The half-m onitor type of house was never very successful because It lacked Insulation In the roof and was consequently a cold, damp house In w inter and a hot one In the sum mer. Many of these monitor houses have been greatly Improved by the addition of a straw celling. A simi la r insulating effect can be secured by some of the Insulating boards now on the market. Ventilation Is another Important problem In poultry house construc tion because o f Its effect on damp ness and the Inside temperature. The only way to remove the excess moisture In the house Is by ventila tion or change of air. A ir movement should be very slow, so that no d raft of cold a ir Is noticeable. In the aver age run of furm poultry houses the henB probably suffer more In severe cold weather due to too much venti lation rather than too little. Both the Nebraska and Iowa ex periment stations have found that hens show no harmful effect from tightly closed quarters during the w inter. W hile neither of these stations rec ommend a tightly closed poultry house, their findings Indicate the Im portance of a ir purity may have been overemphasized In the past. P ig Club.

A. Henderson. Included In this is 20,- 000 pounds of Kentucky blue grass seed, the first to be harvested in Klamath county, grown by Geary Brothers of Wocus. LAKEVIEW — Because of the shortage of feed and pasture, Lake county farmers are cutting various weeds for hay, reports County Agent Victor Johnson. More than 500 tons of weeds and foxtail have been stacked- for feed on the old Goo.ce Lake bed by farmers In the East Side and Dry Creek districts, he says. An alkali weed found in this section and Identified by the Oregon Experiment station as Sea Brite, is readily con sumed by sheep and cattle. •CORVALLIS— B. W. Johnson, pro minent fruit grower of Monroe, started dusting his prunes for the prevention of brown rot several years ago, and his crop has been free from this disease ever since, says C. R. Briggs, county agent. Other Ben ton county fruit growers are also reporting excellent results from dusting for the control of brown rot.

"Broody liens should be cooped the first night they stny on the nest, as any delay w ill Increase the brooding period," says Miss Corn Cooke, exten sion poultry specialist, Minnesota Uni versity farm . “In breaking up hroodl- nes», the sane way is fo give the hens humane treatm ent and feed them well, so as to get them back to laying as soon as possible. "The case Is one for hospital treat ment, rather than punishment, such as starvation, or torture In solitary corw^ finement.” says Miss Cooke. "Build the hens up to laying by good feeding. Instead of starving or genring them out of broodiness. After all, what Is wanted are eggs. “Confine broody hens in a well-ven tilated slatted or netting coop, placed In the shade. Supply dry mash nil the time In a feed trough, feed a moist mash once a day and feed scratch grain ligLlly. Under such treatment, hens will soon go back to laying If caught the first night. "Don’t stop with this, however. Breeding broodiness out of the (lock Is better than treating birds for the ailment. Band a hen every time she goes broody. Omit from the breeding pen hens wearing such bands and In time trouble from broodlnesa can be reduced to a minimum.'' Light Yolks Preferred Poultry producers find that many buyers In the large cities, especially the New York market, prefer eggs with light colored yolks, the United States Department o f Agriculture says. Certain mntcrlnls such as green feed and yellow corn produce dark yolks, hut when eggs are candled It Is often difficult to tell whethe’ the dark yolk has been caused by feed or because the egg has been excised to heat. Thus, altlmugh buyers prefer light yolks In order to he on the snfe side, dark yolks do not necessarily inner» that the eggs are inferior In quality. Feeds such ns white corn, wheat, buck wheat. and oats result In eggs having light yolks. To he classed ns n quality product, eggs must bp uniform In color and size, and light yolks make them mor-i deslmhle In many mnrkets. DIVISION H— WOMEN’S DEPARTMENT Mrs. Wm. Htnellne, Superintendent.

The ele vator was built primarily to provide sub-terminal storage for Montana wheat, and so hold It sway from Coast terminala at tinea when added supplies might choke the market and depress pricae. The big concrete structure is mads up of 14 hugs storage tanks with a capacity of 75O,Ooo bushels, and u central workhouse, equipped w ith machinery for grading, mixing and loading. The bins ara 100 feet high, while the workhouse towers to a height of 188 feet. Completion of the Spokane elevator brings terminal and sub-term Inal storags facilities controlled by Farmere National in the Pacifie jorthweet to more than 9.000,00 o bushels. Where small mites are abundant, clean ont the house, removing and burning old nesting materials. Then spray the entire honae with coal oil or a mixture of equal parta of coal oil and crank case oil. Be careful to force the spray Into cracks Thia pest attacks the birds at night and hides during the day. One thorough clean ing up and spraying of the house will an ally get rid of the pest In case Nt doesn't, repeat the treatment la tea days— Missouri Farmer,
