A Glass Cloth covered scratch shed gives 
. chickens balmy June weather conditions 
indoors i during zero months. Hens lay more 
fees. Paid its cost ten times over,” writes 
Iowa farmer, by giving extra light and 
warmth, increasing egg yield remarkably dur¬ 
ing winter when eggs brought ‘top prices.’ 
Greatest thing I ever heard of. Better than 
glass and cheaper, too." Also ideal for housing 
early hatched chicks in safe, warm, sun-lit 
scratch pens.

Dimensions of Henhouse 
Would you give me dimensions for a 
modern poultry-house for 300 hens? Also 
other suggestions to be observed when 
building a poultry-house. d. a. s. 
Saugerties, N. Y. 
Hens should have from 3 to 4 sq. ft. of 
floor space each, and a building 20x60 ft. 
would be amply large for 300 fowls, be¬ 
sides being in good proportion. The roof 
might be a gable one, or one of double 
pitch, with rafters of unequal length, 
short ones in front. The latter is a com¬ 
mon style of building. Concrete makes 
the most desirable floor if well under¬ 
drained. Walls may be of any material 
desired, the important thing being that 
they shall be windtight. Single thickness 
matched stuff is often used, this being 
placed vertically. The building should 
face the south, southeast or east, and ven¬ 
tilation should be provided for by window 
or other openings of ample size and num¬ 
ber in the front, all other sides being kept 
closed. It should be high enough in front 
and rear to give head room inside, but 
need be no higher. A sawtooth roof, 
known as the half monitor style, is now 
quite popular in houses of considerable 
depth. This roof admits light well to¬ 
ward the rear of the building. .Straw 
lofts beneath gable roofs add to the 
warmth of a building, but also to the ex¬ 
pense of building. There are many types 
of poultry buildings, each being advocat¬ 
ed by some. It is a good plan to visit a 
number of well-conducted poultry plants 
and talk with the owners about the ad¬ 
vantages and disadvantages of their build¬ 
ings before investing heavily in one. The 
time and expense will be well invested.

George Washington 
and his Plow 
“March 6th— Fitted a two-eyed plough instead of a duck-billed 
plough, and with much difficulty made my chariot-wheel horses 
plough. March 7th —Put the pole-end horses into the plough in 
the morning, and put in the hind horses in the afternoon, but, the 
ground being well swarded over and very heavy ploughing, I 
repented putting them in at all, for fear it should give them a habit 
of stopping the chariot.” 
—from the diary of our first ‘President , written about 
I JO years ago. The “ chariot ” is the old-time carriage. 
McCormick-Deering 
P & O Plows 
Many changes have been 
made in plows since the soil 
was first turned along the Poto¬ 
mac River. Famous inventors 
and skilled builders have done 
their work so well that the 
modern plow—trim and shin¬ 
ing, strong and dur¬ 
able, light in draft, 
and turning perfect 
furrows, would daz¬ 
zle the eyes of 
W ashington. 
Plowing is still hard work 
but McCormick-Deering P &O 
plows make it as easy as is 
humanly possible and they do 
first-class plowing under all 
conditions. 
They provide you with walk¬ 
ing plows in all standard sizes. 
Riding plows, single and gang, 
moldboard and disk. Tractor 
plows include Little Genius in 
2, 3 or 4-bottom power-lift. 
Little Wonder, 2-bottom for 
small tractors, Mogul 4 to 8- 
bottom. Tractor disk, 
2 to 4-bottom. Or¬ 
chard disk. Power 
grub breaker with 
24" bottom. Chat¬ 
tanooga walking 
plows for all purposes, etc., etc. 
P & O and Chattanooga 
plows have made and kept their 
friends among plowmen for 
many years. For your plow 
needs this year, consult the 
McCormick-Deering dealer.

New "Z” Engine prices 
19% below 1913 level 
“Z” engine prices are lower than farm product 
prices today. Horsepower for horsepower, you 
can buy the famous “Z” with fewer bushels of 
wheat; less cotton; fewer hogs—than were 
required to buy the Fairbanks-Morse engine 
of 1913. 
Remember, this is a genuine “Z”, famous 
for its dependability—its economy. More 
than 1,250,000 horsepower now in farm service. 
Quantity production, engineering skill and 
careful manufacture have been combined to 
give you a better engine at a lower price. See 
the Fairbanks-Morse dealer in your town.
