Feeding for Winter Eggs 
We have about 150 last year's chickens 
which are starling to moll now. and lay 
only about 4% dozen eggs a day. How 
should we feed them to get them to lay 
soon again'f Then vVe have about 250 
Leghorn pullets: they are in a different 
house. This is a new poultry-house 
built iu Ohio poultry-house plan style. It 
is 18 by 40 ft. How many birds will lit 
into it V We feed, them all mash of two 
parts eormueal. one part each middlings 
and bran, aboui 50 lbs. meat scrap: beep 
it before them all the time. We give the 
oats in the morning ami evening, about 14 
quarts equal parts of cracked corn, wheat 
and oats: throw it outside where they all 
oat it. Some of the pullets are full- 
grown and have a nice comb, but do not 
lay yet. They all have fresh water and 
oyster shells by them all the time. How 
can I feed them so they will lay through 
the Winter. MRS. e. k. 
Ashtabula. O. 
Your new poultry-house will hold the 
250 pullets, though with little room to 
spare. The hens and laying pullets may 
well he fed the same ration, as if takes 
the same kinds of food to produce both 
eggs and feathers. The dry mash should 
contain from one-sixth to one-fifth part 
of meat scrap, by weight, a good formula 
being equal parts- cornrneal, wheal bran, 
middlings, ground oats ami meat scrap. 
The hens that are beginning to molt will 
hold up better iu egg production if given 
.♦moist mash at noon in addition to the 
dry, what they will quickly clean up be¬ 
ing given. This should be begun in late 
Summer when egg production begins to 
fall off. The pullets should also have dry 
mash always before them and their mixed 
grains night and morning in the litter. 
They will probably eat from eight fo 10 
quarts of grain per 100 fowls daily, in 
addition to the mash. More than half of 
this should he fed at night, feeding so as 
to send the birds to their perches with 
full crops. M. B. D.

Combination Poultry and Pigeon House 
Will you suggest a plan to build a 
obieken-fiouse to accommodate MOD laying 
hens, with pigeou-house overhead? Also 
cost of same at the present time. 
Pennsylvania. it. j, b. 
A poultry-house 20 fi. deep by 50 or 
00 ft. long would accommodate .'100 fowls 
And may lie built iu any style that you 
prefer. It is most economically built 
with a shed roof, or a double pitch roof, 
having the rafters in front shorter than 
those in the rear. This latter style makes 
interior posts to. support the rafters at 
their centers unnecessary, All the sides 
except the front should be airtight, and 
the front should have plenty of windows 
.for light and ventilation. The windows 
should extend from near the floor to 
within a short, distance of the plate, and 
may be made to serve as ventilators, as 
well as lo give light, by hinging (hern at 
the bottom to drop back into the house a 
few inches at the top. The side openings 
thus made should be stopped by V-slmped 
boards cut to lit and to serve as boxing 
for the sash. If windows arc of double 
sash type both sashes may be dropped 
back separately. Actual hinges are not 
needed, as the “liopper sides” hold the 
.ashes iu place when they are open. 
A house of this size may of course he 
built iu two Stories and with an ordinary 
gable roof, the upper floor being used for 
pigeons. My opinion is, however, that 
the combination will not prove wholly 
satisfactory, and that either pigeons or 
liens will tiually lie given the whole build¬ 
ing. The cost will depend entirely upon 
local prices of labor and material and 
should be easily estimated by a local car¬ 
penter after a complete plan is drawn. 
The building may be as elaborate as yon 
desire, but walls of single thickness of 
boarding arc sufficiently warm, if air¬ 
tight. M. B. P.

Carbolic Acid for Roup 
I have a flock of pullets that have 
colds, and some of them have an offensive 
odor. T have some of them separated 
from the flock, but not all of them. I have 
been told that if 1 pul carbolic acid iu 
the drinking water il will prevent roup, 
blit I am afraid to fry it. Is it a pre¬ 
ventative of roup or any other ailments 
of poultry, and. if SO* how much to a 
gallon of water? j. K. 
Stevensville. X. Y. 
Carbolic acid is a very efficient germ 
destroyer when used in a solution of 
sufficient strength, bill h few drops added 
to drinking water would be of no value 
in destroying such a resistant germ as 
that of roup. A strong solution would 
not be drunk by (he fowls and. even if it 
were, il would not. in this way. be 
brought into contact with the roup germs 
that have their hiding places in the pas¬ 
sages about the eyes and nostrils. Per¬ 
manganate of potash is a milder disin¬ 
fectant that may be added to drinking 
water in sufficient quantity to make a 
wine-red solution, and is believed by 
many to be of value in destroying dis¬ 
ease germs when so Used. Roiling water 
thoroughly applied to utensils that have 
become contaminated by. diseased fowls, 
and whitewash to the interiors of the 
buildings are more effective, however.
