We CAN'T STOP Now
Perhaps you've seen letters from boys over there , . farm and.
village boys you know. They tell you that farming is a soft job conr-
pared to what they have gone through and are going through. But
they keep on .going , . , day after day ... without let-up. They don't
expect to stop until the job has been done.
We, too, at home, have a was job. to do. We; too, must keep on.
We roust buy Victory Bonds to provide money to replace munitions
and supplies that our fast -travelling fighters are using up. It's a
privilege to help then ... a job that we can take
genuine pride in
' doing .. . a job that our conscience should not let us neglect.
Our fighting men depend on us. We cannot let them down.

In, summer a real saving in, electric
energy justifies putting on the clock

in winter even though "there's a war

Dear Mrs. Prentice,—
I want to thank you all for the
parcel and also the cigarettes I have
just received. I am getting along
quite well lately. Have been allowed
'to get up the last three days and I
hope it will not be so very much'lon:-
ger until I can get out and back to
the regiment 'again. Life has :been
rather uneventful for me for the last
couple of months, so I'm afraid I
can't find so very much to write
about. Winter -is not very far off
now and it mains quite frequently, I
certainly hope we don't have 'to spend
a rainy season Iike last winter again.
It was pretty awful at times.
I haven't run across any of the
boys lately except ' an Ross, whom
I last saw about thre or four months,
ago, Please give my best -regards to
everyone.
You s Sincerely

Avoid Overcrowding In Th
Henhouse
e targe pens where the house is excep-
tonally well insulated and, ventilated'
and where the managemerjt is of the
very best,
A certain amount of overcrowding
usually occurs, ducting the early fall
months while all windows and ventil-
ators can be kept open. This over-
crawding can be remedied, however,
before winter sets in by constant
culling and removal of pullets, Which
do not develop as expected.
The basic ,principles of the pamper
j housing a£ laying hens are as fol-
lows:
(Experimental Farm News)
The wartime expansion of Canada's
poultry industry has resulted in an
enormous' increase in the number of
laying hens on .farms. Overcrowding
in laying houses is a serious mistake.
It has been proved that the returns
from 200 hens in a house designed to
hold that number of birds may 'be
just as great as from 300 hens in
the sante building, says R. M. Blak-
ely, Dominion' Experimental Station,
Swift Current, Sask.
Overcrowding results.' in too much
moisture ,being breathed into the air
which most ventilation • systems are
not able to remove. This causes damp
litter and -damp and frosty walls and.
ceiling. In addition, there is too
often a shortage of mash hopper
space in ovezcrowded houses. Feather
picking and earunibalisan increase
under these conditions, and there is a
lowering ofthe general health, of the
birds snaking thein more susceptible
to disease and parasites. Only healthy
vigorous birds can be expected to
stand up to long confinement and
the strain of heavy Paying. These
Will not be found in overcrowded,

Four square feet per bird,

breeds and three and one-half
svuare';feet for lighter !breeds are the •
recommended .amounts of floor space. ,
This number of birds per house
Should not be increased' pt!
1. Only .healthy sound birds should
be placed in the laying house; 2. A
Iminimunn ,of 3% square feet of floor
