Light in Poultry tiouses
(l)sllorlmental'Ferule Nate)
For some time it Ilas been a
dos -
then whether tLttfi4ix1 light G1 the
poultry house was a. Windt or not,
Mid to help solve the proltlem, the
Poultry .Division of the Experimental
]+arena have, tested it for two sea-
sons, cltutng the winter of 1910-17
with two pens. (40 birds ih all) of
13areri ]look pullets and during, lest.
winter. with two Pens pf Jioek pullets
and .two pens of Leghorn pullets, (40'
birds Of each breed.)
In each light pen of t vent' birds
two tungsten 40 Witt lamps were,
used. They were turned.pn at D a.
m. and left ti11 daylight, "then turnr
ed on again in the afteritoon before
dusk and left till 0 p,m. This was
starter! in November when the days
became shor:t and continued until the
middle o
CMuch when
light t was un-
necessary.
In the 1916-17 test -the liglit pen
laid 1100 eggs with -a total value of
$61,90, The cost of feed was $22,53,
the east atlight $2.40,--a total cost
of $24,73, 'This gave 'a balance over
cost of feed and light of $80.20 or a
cost. per dozen cents,
eggs of 20,8
-The dark .pen laid 630 eggs with a
total value of 529.40 ; cosi] of feed
was..$21.00,,.This gave a balance ov-
er cost of feed of $8.37, • The cost
per dozen eggs was 89.8 cents.
In 1917-18, the yields were not
high inteither case, and the total dif-
ference in egg yield in the six months
was by no means. large, but the for-
ty birds.with Light gave a bettor
revenue than the forty without light.
Title difference was made up inthe
time that the eggs were received.
Those with the light gave their
heaviest yields in December and ,Jan-
uary, while by far the heaviest mon-
ths tor the Leghorns without light
were Marcid and April and for the
Rocks January and Fehruary.
The total figures from the two pens
with the light were : Number of eggs,
2470, value $130.82, cost of feed 855.-
48, cost of light $3.20, balance. 577,-
04, or a cost of 28.5 cents per dozen,
Those without light laid 2242 eggs,
value -5118.90, cost of •feed $00.01,
balance 558.94, a cost of one !dozen
eggs 32.1 cents. ,
For both years the light pen laid
3476 eggs, at a 'market value of
5191.25. The feed and light cost'
$83,41 leaving it balance of 5107,81,
or a cost per dozen of 28.7 cents.
The dark pens laid 2878 eggs worth
5148.30, The cast of feed was $81.10
and the cost of one dozen was 33.8
cents.
The conclusion may be drawn that
for early . winter eggs during the
short days, the light does increase
the egg .yield hut later in the season
the yield isnot as heavy as with
hinds that have not had the light.
'Che advisability of using light, there-
fore, will depend upon what is want-
ed. 1f early winter and high priced
eating eggs are the object the lights
are an advantage ; if eggs during the
hatching season are desired, the
lights are a disadvantage.
The anti -loafing regulations of Ap-
ril last have been rescinded, awing to
altered industrial conditions.
A recount has been ordered of the
Woodstock Mayoralty election bal-
lots.

trying' to Do Their Bit.
While nearly every woman is trying
to do her bit in some way, there are at
least a hundred thonsand other fair
ones"who believe they can serve their'
country by breaking into the- movies,
notes a New York critic. That is why
every motion -picture office is crowded
with applicants and why motion -pic-
ture managers are busy men these days
of frantic filmdom. it requires much
patience, nerve and sometimes a set
of burglar's tools to enable a would-be
actress to reach a manager, however,
but an overdressed woman of rather
ripe years gushed her way past the
array of melee boys and clerks into
the sanctum of the man who hires and
fires. "I wish to become a movie ac-
tress," she announced. "I feel that I
have within me the makings of a great
impersonator of the silent drama."
"Have you ever had any experience, •
madam?" asked the manager. "Miss,
lf.you please," simpered the applicant.
"No, I haven't any experience. My
face is my fortune.." "Well, yon need
not worry about the income tax, 1f
that's the case," grunted the manager.
"Don't slam the door."

smiling!
The Salvation Army appeals for a Million Dollars for the
boys who won the victory. This is the first time the Salva-

you now, for the sake of the soldiers, and as a VITAL factor
in the solution of Canada's Reconstruction problems, with
the Homecoming of her boys, to give and to give liberally!
Our men in Khaki may not all be home for another year.
While there is a company of Canadians in uniform over there
or over HERE, there is work for the Salvation Arnay Lassie.
The weary waiting and the relaxed discipline spell dangers
that MUST be guarded against. A happy smile and a com-
