run out of tlio jug into the saucer until the lip of the jug is covercxl, and ns it gets used ii)) more will trieklo slowly down so that the birds will have a constant supply of fro.sh, cletm water so long as any remains in the jug.

T H E M A L E B IR D . I t is quite a general rulo to advise tho re­


moval of tlio male bird from tlie liei^ when tlio “ sea son” is. over, or wlicii fertile eggs aro not required,* and it is desirable to retain him for future uso. In. the majority of cases this is* an o.Kcollont plan, as it very often happens that wJien Jiatehing is finisliotl tlio ponltryinan wjuits to put down fv nuinbor of eggs in watorglass for use in winter, and in this case tho eggs are cerUimly bettor un­ fertilised. On a free range whwe there aro a hirgo number of hons to ono lualo bird, and ovei*y freedom, it may also be different from when tho fowls are kept in more re­ stricted ai'oas. AVhen fowls juo kept in re­ stricted areas and not laying, or should tlicy hapiKMi to be in moult, they will got on much boLler without tho attentions of a vigorous rock, whilst on tho other hand the male bird, wliicli is often of littJo uso as the result of a; IneetUng season’s attention, will be much ini- provo<l lor a peri»)d of rest. It will also be more likely and ready again to province hardy am f healthy offspring when roquire<l.

A Imad of scoding loltuco or ii young cab-


biigo bung up just within reacli of the fowls will .nitord tlioin oxerdso and wbolcsoino food. Almost any sort of garden stulf can bo used for the sanic purpose. A iTOokod breast bone generally indicates


nuilnntrit.ion at some perioti of growth, or some lack of constitutional vigour. • I f growing cbickeits are to do well they must liavo plciitv of space and air. Tltey should 1)0 taken away from the liens a.s soon as ix)Ssiblo. and nllowcd to sleep in a liouso
