100 Hens Require -
Six Gallons Daily
One hundred hens respiring six
gallons of water per day!•
One hundred hens tracking
through litter after, standing
around a sloppy fountain area!
These are the two main reasons
why farmers have a wet litter
problem. Professor John Walker,
poultry scieptist at the O.A.C.,
feels insulation, ventilation, stir-
ring of the litter, and the right
placement of waterers can help
beat the problem,
Install watering equipment up
on the dropping pits so the spill-
age isn't going in the litter, or
put the waterer up on a wooden
platform so the spillage falls
through the platform; the birds
won't be able to track through the
wet litter," says Professor Walker.
Fans? They'll only help if the
house is insulated., The moisture
has to be vaporized. And you
"have to have animal heat, or sun
heat or litter heat" to vaporize
the moisture. An important prin-
ciple here, says Professor Walker,
is that thwater-holding capacity
of the air doubles with every 16
degrees rise in temperature.
He suggests ' the equivalent to
three inches of rock wool/bats on
the ceiling and two inches of bats
op the walls.
"Birds piling up the litter can
be a problem, Some people throw
the litter in the pen; then they for-
get about it. They shouldn't—es-
pecially if the house has windows."
"Hens like scratching in the
light and the litter will often be
shallow near the windows and
maybe up to the top of the piti:
You have to go in and redistribute
litter over the floor; litter serves
as floor insulation and prevents
moisture condensation on bare
floor boards," says Prof. Walker.
Litter should be stirred; maybe
as often as once a week, says the
poultry specialist. "When the litter
cakes you should get in there and
stir it up." Some people throw in
hydrated lime. Use one pound of
lime to four square feet of floor
space when the litter becomes
moist. The lime then has both a
chemicaf and physical action.
"Ration is important too. If the
birds aren't getting a well-balanc-
ed 'diet they frequently will drink
more water and the droppings will
have a higher moisture content."

RED CROSS TO MEET
The regular meeting of the Red

Good Seed is Vital Factor -
Good garden seeds costs_ but a
few cents per packet, but of all
the factors that go to produce a
successful garden • it is the most
essential. Soil, fertilizer, weather
and care may be perfect, but with-
out good seed, true to variety, fail-
ure is certain. Beginners in gar-
dening (the others don't need to
be reminded) are strongly advised
to let the plant breeders save the
seed and get theirs from a Cana-
dian seed house.
