VIEW FROM PASSAGEWAY. 



VIEW FROM INTERIOR OF SQUAB HOUSE. 

 Above are two views of a model made to illustrate ^^'hat we call the dowel 

 system of feeding: and watering. It is a great tinle-^a\■^■r in a long house. Between 

 the floor of squali house and the lo\\'est tier of nest Ijoxes is one foot space. Fill 

 ttiis space nith three-eighths inch donehng set one and one-half inches apart, as 

 pictured. (This doweling comes in any length from a carpenter and is very cheap.) 

 Set galvanized drinker and feed trough as shown. The trough has a three-quarter 

 inch slot in its bottom so that the grains will fall into position ready for eating on 

 the back side of the bottom strip into which the dowels are driven. The birds 

 stick their heads through the dowels to eat and drink, and cannot foul either grain 

 or water. Push a wheelbarrow with grain along the passageway and a house one 

 hundred feet long can be attended to in fifteen minutes. Without this arrangement 

 If you go into eucli unit pen to feed and water, you will use up at least an hour, and 

 it will be harder work. Hy this methoc' you need enter the breeding pens only when 

 killing or cleaning times come.
