Design for Poultry House That Will
Provide Proper Housing for Flock
By W. A. RADFORD
Mr. William A. Radford will answer
luestlona and give advice FREE OF
DOST on all problems pertaining to the
tubject of building work on the farm,
tor the readers of- this paper. On acsount
of his wide experience as editor,
tuthor and manufacturer, he is, with-
»ut doubt, the highest authority on the
•ubject. Address all incfulries to Wil-
Uam A. Radford, No. 407 South Deartorn
Street, Chicago, 111., and only in-

The uccoinpanylng design is for a
house for a farm on which poultry is
recognized as an important source of
the farm income. It is practical and
modem in every way.
One of the first principles of sucsessful
poultry rulging is to have pletity
of fresh air for the flock. This
bouse can he entirely opened on the
touth side. Tin- east, west and north
tides are built to keep out all drafts,
iropsiding and tarred paper being
ased to make a tight wall. The days
if the unveiitiiuted poultry house are
?ast for the up-to-dute farmer. The
modern house, with plenty of fresh
ilr, is a sure preventive of roup and
the many other diseases that breed
in the old type of henhouse.
The scratch room Is located along
the front of the house, so that the
chickens get the benefit of the sunlight
while feeding.
The' roosts are placed along the
back wall, well removed from the
front opening so that there is no draft
in the roosting quarters. The itest
illey back of the roosts makes it eusy
to gather the eggs; and it is un advantage
to have the roosts moved
away from the wall, for warmth aud
to give less surface for the harboring
of mites.
The ladder at the front of the
roosts makes it possible for the heavier
breeds of poultry and the yuung
Attractive Nook for
Breakfast Described
In this age of continual rush, especially
at the breakfast hour, u small
corner attractively arranged will do
more to start the day right for the
overworked business man who often
eats his first meal of the day In the
solitary state. What is more depressing
than a big dining room with himself
as the sole occupant?
In the breakfast nook, built along
Spanish lines, there Is a small alcove
off of the aun {torch. It has brown
beams—in fact, a continuation of the
ones in the dining room and hall. The
spaces between are a greenish yellow
pluster. Across one end there is a
built-in seat stained green and upholstered
in yellow fahrikoid.
There is u narrow refectory-type
table in brown stained wood and a
chiiir to mutch. You see, provisions
are made for the rest of the family
to Join father, hut the head of the
house often prefers solitude.
A casement window ubout fills the
end of the alcove. It bus quaint
inside shutters, also stained green. Between
them there Is a box-pleaii-ti
valance of the yellow fahrikoid. The
window panes are leaded triangles.
In summer time u vine drapes Itself
around them. Several ituiiuu potUwy
flower holders are on the walls and
alb.) a small electric clock, which
stands ou a corner cupboard painted
a bright yellow.
The floor of the Ideal nook Is made
of mulll-coluieil tiles, ulx-sldcd ones
thut are colorful. On the sun porch
there is a wee fountain that trickles
tuerrily. aud at night it has uu illuminative
feature that the guests enjoy,
especially when the other lights are
turned off.
Ureal;fast china for the home la so
reufeouubly priced that frequent
changes niuy be made us an enticing
lure to the man who lias little appetite.

stock 'to get onto the roosts. It also
allows them to get off the roosts in the
morniug without jumping to the hard
floor. Every one who has hud experience
with poultry is acquainted with
the troubles from sore feet that very
frequently result from jumping off
higli roosts to a hurd floor. As long
as the liens are actually suffering
from injur)', their efficiency will be
seriously Interfered with. It Is true
that they lay best if obliged to take
some exercise in scratching for their
feed, but they must be kept from all
danger of positive injury and serious
discomfort.
The large feed room completes the
equipment. The floor ami foundation
are of concrete, making the bouse ratproof
und more sanitary. When a
concrete floor is used, it is necessary
to provide plenty of bedding. It adds
to the comfort of the flock, especially
in cold weather.
This is an attractive house in external
appearance, and of a design that
will fit In well with the rest of the
buildings of almost any modern farm
group.

Doors of Beauty for
the Smaller Houses
Small homes, even those costing $10-
000 and under, may be enriched with
doors of a beauty formerly restricted
to the mansion. These doors huve the
slender ribbon grain of the most expensive
hardwoods. They are offered
in totally new designs, including prize
styles created by architects in a recent
nation-wide compel I lion.
Built of selected Philippine hardwood
beautifully matched, they come
complete, ready to finish. Uecuuse of
a special method of construction they
are guaranteed not to shrink or warp.
Cost compares favorably with that of
common domestic hardwoods. Tliey
are made in single and multi-panel
models and in flush models plain or in
modern motif.
•Square or round heads, with or
without lights, stiles und ruils are
built up on cores of stress neutralizing
I.locks, welded to rigid edge braces
and faced with flawless layers of
wood. An absolutely wuterproof cement
in ysed In construction. The
claim is made that once properly liun«
one of these doors never needs to be
relit led or planed down.
Slate Sills Durable
Because of their jiermaueuce slute
sills for windows and doors are being
used in many mw homes, and replacing
worn sills in older houses.
They are sanitary and especially suitable
in connection with u tiled floor.
As they do not become scuffed and
shabby they "dress up" a doorwuy betwecu
rooms through which there is
much traffic.
