' " ... , .. . Shade for poultry is as necessary as for any other bird or. animal. ' If your runs are not provided with shade, 4 make 'them shelters tempor ary roofs. .two to three feet, from the ground, open on all sides. The birds will show their appreciation. Pure, clean, cool water should be in ample supply, and always An a sheltered placewhere the sun cannot heat it" and rain will not interfere Water vessels should be cleaned and refilled at least twice a tlay. , , - Be on the - look out for bodies of dead :birds, or decaying meats. They attract vermin of all kinds, and if the chicken's get at them you invite lim berneck trouble. Bury all such things deep, if any birds are dead from dis ease, burn them. This is -the season of all. when poultry runs ' should- be spaded or plowed deep and Well lirhfed. It. is cheaper to prevent disease by proper sanitation than it is to cure diseases that become epidemic. By all means avoid crowding young cmcKs m brooders or cobDs.'-Give them plenty of room and. plenty of air at night if you wish:-strong, neaithy,; vigorous chicks. As the early chicks grow, put them in colony, coops, on good sheltered runs,--a good orchard is-a Jfine place. As soon as you can surely tell the cocKereis trom the ' pullets, .
