of war and have shown their real
sympath . by collecting. oyes 200
pounds for the P.O.W. fund, so it was
appropriate that one of their mem-
bers were chosen. In London they
were received by several notabilities
and afterwards lined up in front of
St. James Palace to await the Queen's -
arrival. The" Queen inspected the
representatives and spoke afew
words to both Miss Margaret Edwar-
ds and Mr. Turner before visiting the
Exhibition, which was a reproduction
of a prison camp' in Germany. It con-
sisted of six huts the first a sec-
tion of the living quarters in a
large ,Stalag, and here the ingenuity
of the men was obvious. Furniture
'made from Red Cross packing cases,
knives, forks, etc., made from Red
Cross food tins and scraps of metal
or wood. The room was brightened by
photographs on the wall, family
photographs, not glamour girls.
Hut No, 2 was devoted to work of
art and craft. In exhibits one could
sense the patience of the creators
as they fashioned beautiful things
with the crudest tools. What long-
ing and yearning for home must
they have had as they painted these
pictures of Welsh country and life!
Hut No. 3 contained, food exhibits
and °medical parcels sent to the pri..
Boners by the Red Cross. Three spe-
cial exhibits were a Christmas par-
cel and one for our Indian soldier
prisoners, and an invalid diet parcel.
Other huts contained equipment for
recreation (all outdoor sports and
theatricals), books and educational
books on all subjects. Hut Na. 4 was
very interesting. It is a replica of a
camp • chapeI built by the inmates of
Stalaglufte 1 and the Rev. J. F. 0.
Brown, a repatriated prisoner, came
to the, exhibition to describe the
services held in the camps. The
"stained glass" windows were r made
by painting regimental crests upon
thein. After following the distin-
guished visitor through the Exhi-
bition, the county' representatives
were entertained at tea by' Lord
Luke. ,It was a delightful ending to a
wonderful day.'
Our interest in the welfare of Bri-
tisk prisoners should be heightened
by the Exhibition, and many readers
who have relatives in prison camps,
Red Cross and St. "John members
and others, 'should be inspired. by this
description ,f the representatives'
visit to spare no effort to relieve the
sufferings and tedium of the
gallant soldiers now in the Stains."

Winter Housing of Laying
Pullets
(Experimental Farm News)
Three main principles are desirable
for the permanent winter housing of
laying pullets: (1) a concrete floor
(2) at least a quarter of the,,south
wall glass and a gnarter cotton, and
(3) a straw loft above a slatted ceil-
ing. For prairie conditions, the walls
of the house should be insulated or
soconstructed or banked with straw
that the building is practically wind-
proof, particularly on the north and
west, says E. Van Nice of the Doniin
ion' Experimental Station, Scott, Sas-
katchewan.
A concrete floor is desirable for
sanitary reasons as it can be washed
and disinfected more satisfactorily
than a wood or earth floor. If a lib-
eral quantity of chaffy litter is used
and changed as necessary to keep
dry, the concrete floor is satisfact-
ory even for winter conditions.
Glass is important to admit sun-
light and heat. Many houses are too
dark for winter conditions, and shor-
ten the day ,for the laying stock.
Special glass to admit vitamin D fro,
the sun is not needed now as this
vitamin is in the fish oil used in- the
feed.
Cotton provides ventilation without
draft in .windy weather,, and in mild
weather some of the cotton may be
opened during the day by having
the frames hinged at the top to per-
mit their opening to the ceiling.. By
this means, additional sunshine and
heat is admitted and ,ventilation is
improved.
Slatted ceiling and a straw loft
take care of much of the moisture in
the air and help to prevent the col-
lection of frost on the walls.The
birds will continue laying normally
daring reasonably cold weather it the
house can be kept from ,becoming tow
moist. A damp, frosty' house indi-
cates inadequate ventilation or insu-
lation ;or both.
At the Scott Station some experi-
mental work has been done in tht
ventilation of a raying house 20' wide
and 36 feet long, but to date the
houses 16 feet wide have been easier
to keep dry in severe winter weather.

Poultry Business
The only way to remake a satis-
factory living :out of poultry is to,
have •enough good birds to provide
that living. The attempt to make a
living out of too few hens is the most
impractical thing in the industry.
The greatest wastage of labour and
the leastefficient factor in the
business are the result of the num-
ber of people who try to make a
a living from 400 to 500 '•hens. They
could just as well look after 2,000 or
more, say officials of the Poultry
Services, Dominion Department of
Agriculture.

Next day . he received a letter

their "romantic meeting," and added:
"To mark the occasion perhaps you
could oblige me with a couple of
seats?"
The actor replied: "I should love
to send you two seats as a 'memento,

ination that they . are all • screwed

There had been the usual crows

had drifted away when they saw
there was nothing doing. Even • the
policeman admitted it was the
tamest arrest he had made for
years.
