Poultry Needs Fresh Air, But Not Drafts Draft* are i source of danger to the poultryman at this time of year, warna T. T. Brown, eiten - ?ion poultry specialist at State College. The birds need ample air circu lation in their houses, but they should not be exposed to direct drafts and dampness, as this fre quently results in outbreaks of colds or bronchitis, and some times sorehead or< pox if the birds have not been vaccinated. Birds sho uld not be crowded in the laying house, he continued. There should be at feast four square feet of floor apace for each bird. Overcrowded birds develop a higher percentage of culb, lay fewer and smaller eggs, and are more so seep title to disease, he pointed out, "Feed a high quality laying mash? yon get more* for your mon ey when yon buu a good mash," Brown stated. "Check a few pul lets occasionally for body weight and regulate the grain feed ac cordingly." Keep pullets separated from older hens, as pallets need more grain to build up body weight, and cannot be fed property when mixed with the older and bigger ham. Birds that molt late and keep np a good egg production should be marked with colored legbande eo they can be selected tfca ! breeding purpose* next year. "If yon do not plan to buy good chlcka from a reliable hat chery, yon should arrange t o breed only you* beat birds, as that Is the only way to build a 1 good, feijUWi i"*1 Miss Williams and Wm. F.

Tours Berlin, Germany. ? German tour ist* going to America this summer aren't going to have as much to spend as they did last year. As part of the fight to keep money at home, the German government has limited each visitor from Ger many to the United States to <40 marks, or about $256, for a sixteen day sojourn ? sixteen days is the maximum time permitted without special permission. Last year the tourist was allowed MO marks, or about $334. Regulations governing spending of this allotted sum also have been tightened. Wneress last year the tourist could spent $333 in the Unit ed States as he wished, this sum mer he must apply $200 or less to hotels, meals and transportation. That leaves $96 tor pocket money. The tourist may take this $56 on shore with him in the form of cash. The $200 for living expenses, how ever, is given to him in the form of special coupons, valid only for liv ing expenses. Because of these restrictions, travel agencies here have adver tised tours in the United States with in the $200 blanket cost (and sixteen day time limits. Most of the tours Include New York# City, Niagara Falls and Washington. Longer tours include, in addition, Detroit, Chi cago, Atlantic City and Philadel phia. lee Acclimates Trees Pasadena, Calif.?

Relief workers had better watch out for the "ditch digger's fracture," a de pression ailment that really is a pain In the neck. Public health physicians re vealed the new illness in an ar ticle in Health News. They ex plained that it was confined al most exclusively to relief work ers or those who formerly worked In offices but who had turned to tiffing ditches. When the ordinary <nan stasis (winging a shovel, he is likely to relax his neck muscles. That is the start of the trouble, the doc tors found. If the dirt comes off, all is well; if the dirt sticks to the shovel, he may wrench his neck. In severe cases, the strain may fracture bones in the spine and thus he has "ditch digger's frac . tare." Fires Are Hazard To Country Homes Cold weather bring* an tDcreope in flro hazard to country home*, warn* David S, Weaver, head of the agricultural engineering de partment at State College. Thia is due mainly to faults iu the conctruction oT chimneys, flues, and other parts of the heat ing systems, he continued. Another source ot danger is that of allowing inflammable material to collect around stoves, fire places, chimneys, or flues where a carelessly dropped match or a spark may ignite it, The use of soft brick and poor motar in an attempt to build chimneys inexpensively is respon sible for many a defect that has has cost a farm family; its home No beams or other things should be attached td a chimney for support, he continued, as any weight on a chimney Is liable to pull it out of line and cause it to develop cracks, Fluea and chimneys should be cleaned frequently, and particu - larty at the beginning of the ieold weather period when fires are kept burning to warn* the home. Weaver urged that all farm families check over their heating systems to make sure there are no defects that may lead to a serious fire. "Fires in the country are ra uth worse than in town," he said, "'since few farm houses are equip ped with a pressure water sys tem that would make it possible to fig St the f*a effectively." Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College Question ? What is the best method for caring meat on the farm? Answer ? There are many methods of caring meat and most o( them are simply variations of two principal methods ? the brine care and the dry salt cure.

Sugar is somen in e? added to give a better flavor and also to counteract the action of the salt by ke?pingUhe muscles soft, where the salt alone makes them hard.
