What a wonderful drink Coca-Cola is...
with a rare, delicious flavor all its own. And how refreshing
the bit of quick energy it gives you. How nice, then, to know that Coke
has as few calories as half an average, juicy grapefruit.

Another great labor saver in the
poultry plant is the automatic
drinking fountain. Several types
are on the market and some of
them can be adapted for use at
various heights to suit chicks Of
different ages,
The equipment and practices
mentioned here tend to encourage
the use of larger pens which in
turn reduces the labor required per
bird. There is some disagreement
as to the ideal size of brooder
house or laying pen, but it has
been proved that chicks can be
brooded successfully in lots of sev-
eral hundred and laying pens which
house four to five hundred or more
birds are giving excellent results.
In planning new poultry houses
or remodelling old buildings, care-

loom may have a great effect on
labor requirements. If sufficient
storage space can be provided in
the poultry building for a supply of
feed to last several days or weeks,
it is a great convenience. Multiple
story buildings require mechanical
hoisting equipment. Generally, feed
should be stored on the seine level
on which it is used or it should be
stored in elevated• bins from which
it can be drawn, through chutes, as

step in saving labor in cattle pro-
duction. Several problems are in-
volved in this procedure, but with
the use of horizontal or surface
silos, the difficulties appear. to be
decreased." The Animal Huebert -
dry and Field Husbandry Divisions
of the Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa, have been giving atten-
tion to the problem, and the first
experiment with beef cattle was
conducted during the winter of
1953-54.
One lot of 20 steers was given
access to grass' silage in a horizon-
tal silo 18 feet wide. Feeding was
done by a movable stanchion -type
feeder gate, suspended from the
side walls of the silo by a roller
bar. The other lot of 20 steers
was hand fed similar silage from
the other end of the silo.
At first the self fed Battle were
allowed to move the feeder gate
forward at will, but it was found'
that they had, a tendency to pull
down more silage than they would
eat during the day. Once the sil-
age was exposed to the air and
chilled it became unpalatable and
a considerable waste occurred. As
a remedy, the feeder gate was fas-
tened so that the cattle could not
move it. It was then moved for-
ward every two days so that a
depth of seven to eight inches of
fresh silage came within reach of
the cattle. This provided ample
feed for the number of cattle in-
volved, and reduced wastage to a
minimum.
The silo was open to the weather
and this created a problem with
snow and frost. This was over-
come by suspending jute bags over
the openings of the gate, and
spreading a tarpaulin above the
feeding area.
Stormy weather or temperatures
which ranged from 47 degrees to 19
degrees below zero did not seem
to impede the willingness of either
group to feed: The total gain of
both lots was the same,

14t, Tip
ENNN BEFORE the turn of the
century, polar and other explor-
ers found that boxes of light,
non -rusting aluminum gave their
precious first-aid equipment
more protection from rough
usage and rough weather.
Manufacturers took the tip.
Today, especially in factories
where industrial processes create
humid or corrosive conditions,
aluminum boxes are used to
keep first-aid kits in good shape.
In fact, aluminum is now
popular for boxes to hold
everything from tools to trout
flies. And for countless other
containers that must stay clean,
bright, free from rust. Alumi-
