Fowls that are wintered in cold > parts of the country, where the temperature runs below freezing to 20 de? grees or more below zero, need consid-1 erable protection. When the cold is so intense that the fowl is uncomfortable, a certain part of the heat and energy from the food eaten is used to combat this low temperature and the food which is required for that pur- j * pose cannot, of course, be used to manufacture eggs. Therefore, the: construction of the house varies with . the temperature or part of country in which It is to be used. A thin and partly open house is best for warmer dimates, but must have reasonably thick walls and be capable of being closed quite tightly on severe nights ' * 11 Til 5 "> 'vA.vxrvn MA 4-ITTAI XT in coia sections. ?

In any event, the house must be made comfortable. * A dark poultry house is unhealthful and uncomfortable. There should be plenty of windows to let in light so that the house is bright and they should be kept clean so that the sun can shine in to warm and -brighten I the interior. The direct rays of the! sun will kill every germ of disease that it touches and that in itself Is important. Too much glass is a disadvantage, because the house warms up too much in the daytime when the ; fowls are busy and cools down too rapidly at night when they are on the roosts. Windows should have both upper and lower sash so that they can be lowered and raised to let in little or much air according to the outside temperature. If there is too much window space reduce it; if there is too little increase it. i . !

Experienced Woodsmen and Others May Easily Become Lost Among the Big Trees "Sooner or later everybody who travels much In the woods?real woodsIs likely to get lost," writes George Gladden in Boys' Life. "The tenderfoot (scout or otherwise) does; the experienced woodsman does?even the Indian sometimes does. But an Indian often won't admit it, at least to a white man; from which Trait probably originated the classic story about the redskin, who, when he was accused of being lost, replied indignantly: "'Injun no lost; wigwam lost; Injun here!' "There is a difference between being lost and being astray. For example, you may suddenly realize that you are traveling northwest instead of north, which you had supposed and desired to be your course; and that discovery may cause not a little confusion in your mind. As long as that confusion lasts, you are astray; actually you are no longer really astray as soon as you realize your error, and begin to travel north. "Again, if you confidently expect to see a certain landmark?say a big ledge on a mountainside?from a trail or road from which you believe it to be visible, and it isn't there, you are certainly astray, and perhaps lost, as far as that ledge Is concerned. Wherefore It behooves you to find out promptly just why you have missed seeing that ledge. Otherwise you are likely to get still farther off your course. For, depend upici It, the ledge hasn't moved ?that is, the wigwam isn't lost. The mistake that many an inexperienced person makes lies in blundering along, and trusting to luck, with the result " * - * - * 2- LT > W tnat presently ne is tosi, iur tan. ?fr ?##?#########?#####??##########< <jt i!

First Electric Fire Alarm Sounded in Boston in 1852 The first fire alarm ever given by electricity was by the Boston system, from Box 7 of District 1, on the old Cooper Street church, Bostou. at 8:25 p. m., April 29, 1852. It was sent in by G. H. Goodnle and received at the headquarters of the system in Police Station 2, Court square, by Charles Carlton Coffin, who afterward became famous as a war correspondent and writer of Civil war books, who was one of the first operators of the system.

I srectiie Fire Lege. | Electric Are logs, which hare been nsed on the stage for several years, are now available for other usee. These fire logs are made of Imitation wood, consisting of three or more logs naturally grouped for interior fireplaces and outdoor campflres. The logs are of translucent material and asbestos, re-enforced with metal, and are made hollow for the insertion of electric bulbs. The bark and cut ends of the logs are artistically designed and hand-painted to give .the natural appearance of partially burned logs. By shading the translucent and opaque parts properly and providing for reflection from below, the logs, when illuminated, glow with the natural bright and darker shading of i burning wood logs.

In Portland, Ore., a new kind of school has been started which has no truant officer, gives no degrees and Is attended by young and old?college graduates as well as some who didn't go though high school. It's not a large school?only 36 at last reports, who meet once a week for an Intensive course In grain grading, because they are Interested in grading grain under federal standards, administered by the United States department of agriculture. The school is held once a week outside of business hours In the office of the federal grain supervisor. Among the students are grain dealers, dock superintendents and foremen, and state grain men.
