There are least 8 essential features ! guilty were made in the city court
of a satisfactory poultry house: 1
Dryness 2—Plenty of sunlight; 3—
Thoroughly venelated; 4—Plenty of
floor space; 5-—Comfortable; 6—Rat
proof; 7—-Simple; 8-—Convenient.
“The factors in environment are
for drunkenness in violation of the
city’s ordinances. During the time of
the fair this offense was committed
only in a minimum way, at least a
minimum in comparison with the
number of such offenses on other
temparature, moisture, sunlight and . c-asions. On Friday night two young

environment must be congenial and j they Were “teaed up’’ to an extent
calculated to keep the birds well and ithat they would hive made their driv-
chntended; otherwise, they may be-
come lazy and unhealthy, or poor pro-
ducers”, says Lewis. The house con-
tains all these factors except feed.
Plenty of sunlight is necessary for
sanitation and dryness, and mpy be
mk
provided for by having the house face
the South. A high shed roof will al-
low the sunlight to pass alrhost, or
at least half way across the floor.
Ventilation is necessary to remove
the foul odors, regulate the tempera-
ture, and provide fresh air. This
should be arranged for without per-
? ' mitting a direct draft to strike the
bids on the roost.
The amount of floor space will vary
with the breed. The heavier breeds
may require as much as five square
feet per bird to prevent crowding,
while the lighter breeds will need no
more than 3 square feet per bird._ A
standard poultry house for 100 birds
is 20x20 feet, giving 4 square feet
per bird.
If the first four points are provid-
ed, the fifth will ikely follow, the
equipment has much to do with the
birds comfort. The kind of roosting
pr -os, kind qf nests; arrangement of
nests, feeding bins, water fountains,
dust pits, the amount and kind of lit-
ter—all of these may affect the birds
The next item needs no discussion.
Simplicity of construction should be
observed, as few cracks annd corners
sh< ult. be left as possible since they
are breeding places for mites and
germs.
The matter of convenience should
be a matter for each poultryman to
work out for himself.

Whitehouse, Oct. 7—This commu-
nity has one farmer at least, A. C.
Horton, who, it is believed, will give
a mighty good account of his opera-
tions in the 5-acre cotton contest
staged by the Dallas News and the
Tyler Chamber of Commerce. But
the community has some corn-grow-
ers as well. T. P. Hanks who has
a farm northeast of town cultivated
19 acres of corn from which he has
gathered 612 bushels. This is in ex-
cess of 32 bushels per acre. It is con-
sidered an excellent yield under the
conditions of intense and prolpnged
drouth which prevailed during the
corn-growing period.
Mr. Hanks planted part of his corn
land in Hastings Prolific and the re-
mainder in what is known as Okla-
homa Yellow Dent. From his corn
field will go selections for Smith
county’s exhibit at the Dallas State
Fair. ;
