A double-decker, it is used for brooding and growing started and ready -to -lay pullets. It is 156 feet by 40 feet and will hold some 12,000 birds up to 12 weeks of age. In the lower picture may be seen the metal canopies which go over the fin -type hot water heating system. Large doors at either end will simplify the cleaning out of the building between crops. Automatic feeding and watering cut labor to a minimum. (Photos by Canadian Poultry Review).

The heating unit installed is large enough so that it will serve a second building, if erected, the same size as the new house. Mr. Andrews normally sells about 40,000 started and ready - to -lay pullets each year. De- mand being what it is, there is a probability of a second building being erected before long; sales can be doubled as more and more farmers leave the brooding and rearing pro- grams to specialists.

Six lovely daugh- ters came to bless this home with laughter and happiness; each one brought problems for bad and Mother, and each dif- ferent from the other. Each in turn with might and main, helped their parents a home to gain; they raked and plow- ed and mowed the hay, with right good will they worked all day. Twenty-five years to dream and plan will give grey hairs to any man; the lady fair, who walked by his side, prayed for wisdom their path to guide. The path was rocky and some- times steep, they tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep; through years of patience and hard labor, the rock steps are a rosy arbour. We come tonight to congratulate you and wish you joys and sorrows few; we hope you Iike the gifts we brought, may you live long to enjoy them a lot. '• May God's richest blessing rest on you, with health and happiness your whole life through. -On behalf of your neighbors: signed, Mil- dred Dow, Donald Hocking." A delicious lunch was serv- ed.
