During the aummer farm poultry keeping js comparatively easy, and tho fowls earn a good living and give profitable returns In Growth and eggs, but during tho winter periods tho farm Hock Is often poorly cared for and returns are far loss than they should be under slightly Improved methods. A small flock, rightly managed, will lay more eggs than several hundred hens allowed to roam free, hunting for their living with the exception of an occasional feed of wholo corn or table scraps. When laying hens crowd into draughty stables or under tho corn crib for shelter, tho egg crop Is bound to be short. Colony House System. Tho best poultry houBe for the average farmer Is a small movable colony house, which will accommodate 25 to 30 hpns as a lavinir flnnk Th
advantages of the movable house are 1 nos,t,n of the egg Is water and tho that it is more sanitary, particularly in uens neeU a re8ula-r d amPlü SUI" summer, when it -,.n 1,., ,irnt,n,i i... , !!' to do their best work. If water Is

FLAX IS PROFITABLE
Wonderful Paying Proposition In Western Canadian Prairies. So much is heard of the wheat, oats and barley grown in tho prairie lands of westoru Canada, and so much has been told of the wealth to bo made out of tho raising of cattle on the succulent and rich grasses of thoso fertile plains, that a most important product has been almost lost sight of, Flax. Hecent preBs reports advlso us that on one of tho last boats to clear from Fort William (at the head of Lake Superior) for Buffalo, thero wero 241.000 bushels of llax valued at $58:1,220, and on another boat leaving the same day thoro were SSS.000 bushels valued at $720.000. Thero has been a big demand for Canadian flux this season, and the lake movement hag been very heavy. Flax Is always a suro crop, and gives to tho farmer who Is anxious for quick return after getting on his land, the chance he is looking for. Thero is opportunity for thousands yet, on the free homesteads of 100 acres, and many of these are available within short distnnce of the lines of railway that are already built or under construction, either on tho main line or branches. Besides these free grant lands there is an opportunity to purchase from railway and land companies at reasonable prices. The display of western Canada's grains in tho straw as well as threshed grains and grasses recently made at St. Louis was an excellent demonstration of what tho country can do. It proved splendid as an illustration of the resources of that vast prairie country, which during tho past year has again proven Its ability to pioduce excellent yields of wheat, oats and barley and flax. Not only this, but tho splendid herds of cattle aro a sourco of large revenue.

Tho narrow openings permit the hens to eat the dry mash, but not to scratch it out into tho litter. Dark Nects Preferable. The darkened nest has several advantages In that hens are less liable to break and eat their eggs or to disturb each other. The nest should bo at least 12x14 inches In size and enough nests should be provided so that there Is at least one nest for each six hens. Make the top and sides separate from the bottom, 60 that It may be removed and easily cleansed. Such nests should be taken out nt least once a month and thoroughly cleaned. The sloping top Is necessary to prevent tho hens roosting upon the nest. In providing perches mnny farmers make the common mistake of not placing them on the same level. Hens
