(Contributed by Ontario Deportment of Agriculture, Toronto.) UCCESSFUL poultry - keepers are found much more fre- quently among those who operate what is termed a "one than plant" than elsewhere. This simply means that poultry require some one person's attention, or that personal attention is so Important that it is usually not to be found efficient among the ordinary laborers. Poultry know the time of day when it is customary to feed thein, and, perhaps, equally as well all other daily tasks. They re- -spond fairly well to the bond of sym- pathy of the feeder. If the feeder rushes into the pen and throws the feed around the poultry usually rush out `of the way or out of the doors if they can get there. Fright reduces Why not use the Lest coal?

Particularly nervous hens, when badly frightened, some- times cease laying for several days. The person caring for the poultry should be fond of them and take an interest in them. One's interest us- ually goes up or down with the pro- duction of the flock. To maintain keen interest when the production is low, or when the Bock is out of con- dition, is the real test. If you hold on and study the flock, generally speaking, you will succeed. A' change of attendants, even when both are good at the work, nearly always means a decrease in produc- tion for some days. The careful feeder knows just about what this or that flock requires as to quantity of feed, etc., and further, he or she usually goes about the work on a definite plan so that in time, the birds know just what to expect, not only as to time and quantity of feed giv- en, but the movements of the atten- dants in the pen. The writer ventures to assert that if the poultry on the farms of On- tario were, on each farm, given over to one person to look after, that there would be a very great increase in the success of ..the undertaking as well as a very large increase in the production; even as much as twenty-. five per cent. in many instances. No lirfe of live stock•;<esponds more to careful s,ttention than. poultry. The boy or girl on the farm can learn much of how to feed and what to feed. They may learn something of the problems in breeding. Successful poultry -keepers know that there is a time to hatch and rear, a time to cull, a time to sell, a time to clean and disinfect, as well as a time to feed., Plenty of farmers are making money from poultry, but they knee, - poultry does well only when given careful and systematic attention.— Prof. W.

In the year 1800, Volta, a famous Italian physicist, discovered that if a plate of copper and one of zinc were placed in weak sulphuric acid, and connected by a wire above the acid, there was transmitted along the wire a certain amount of energy, which transmission we speak of as ,a current of electricity, comparing it to a current of water. As it requires pressure or head to make' water flow, so it requires electric pressure to snake electricity flow. The pressure .of the simple cell described above is called a volt, in honor of its dis- coverer. A dynamo generating 32 volts would have a pressure equal to that of 32 simple cells. Electric energy passing through fine wires will heat them white hot, hence electricity may be used for lighting. Current for this purpose usually has a pressure of 110 volts, when supplied by light and power companies, but private plants usually generate only about 32 volts. All current generated by dynamos is al- ternating when made, i.e., it flows in one direction for half a revolu- tion of the dynamo and then in the opposite direction during the other half, but by fitting the dynamo with a co.inenutator (which means _chang- er) these 'avec of current may all be sent in the same direction along the distribution lines. It is then called direct current or D.C. Now alternating current, or A.C., may be used for lighting, just as well as D.C.. If the altercations are very rapid the light is perfectly steady, but if too slow the lights will fluctuate in brightness, and the light is hard on the eyes. Many light and power companies supply A.C. However, A.C. cannot be used to charge storage cells and hence psi- vote plants which usually have stor- age batteries must be of the D.C. variety. This is also true of lighting systems for automobiles. One-horse power will run 80 ordis nary tungsten lamps, each giving from 28 to 24 candle-power, while if they are nitrogen filled each lamp will give about 45 c,p., hence it would take only about half as many to give the same light as before. As the ordinary farm probably would not re- quire more that, say, four lights on an average of two hours per day, tak- ing the whole year round, it is easily seeai:.S t.1li.9- g m„D,unt L gofer *e: List your property with me.
