The days should be Iengthened‘ to‘ a maximum of 13 to 14 hours. never more. unless the all night system '5’ used. in this way a dim light is all lowed: to burn over the feed hoppers and‘ water fountains all night. One of the most commonly used systems is one wherelhv morning light is used. With a little ingenu- ity an automatic switch can be rigg- ed. which would) turn the lights on at 4 01- 5 o'clock in the morning, depending on how long a d‘ay is de- sired. The lights could then 'be al- IOWed to burn until daylight sup- pluants them. The evening light svstemv is emâ€" ployed by others. This way the lights are out on when it gets dark and put out when the day has been lengthened sufficientlv. This sys- tem is more adaptable to the use of gasoline andl kerosene lights than the morning svstem. When using telectricitv a dimming,- svstem is neâ€" cessarv to enable the birds to wee to get on the roasts when the lights are turned off. Because it is natural for hens to! lay fewer eggs when the days getl short, poultryumen- have learned to lengthen the fall and winter days and; fool the birds into producing eggs when they are scarce and prices are highest. When lights were first used ’to‘ make birds lay more, it was thought that the increased production was due to the longer feeding period and a larger intake of food, but re- cently it has been discovered that! light has a stimulating effect on the? reproductory organs and that in- creased production is due as much to this stimulating effect as to greater food: consumption. u: I all" Ulupo Farmers Urged To Take Steps Against Memace Pointing out the menace of rats, the Dominion Department of Agriâ€" culture, in a special bulletin in which it emphasizes the importance of conserving food supplies because of war conditions, says. “While special efforts are being directed to the prodUction and! con- servation of food supplies in Canada under war conditions, a notorious destroyer of food, the common rat, is still at large, carrying out its work of destruction. Dr. Arthur There are several systems used in illuminating the hen house. the sys- tem usually depends. on the equip- ment available, and the convenience of the human The hens do not seem to care how the light is supplied, the response is the same Whether electricity, a gasoline pressure lantern, or an or- dinary kerosene lantern is used. Where electricity is available, it is natural to use electric lights in the hen house, but the absence of elec- tric power is no drawback to the farmer who is willing- to hang a lantern in his chicken pen. Poultry- men have found? that the extra eggs more than pay for equipment and’ troufble necessary to provide lights. Originally lights were used only when one desired to increase egg produetion and while that is still the main olbject of lights, there are re- finements to the system which get extra eggs in a round about way. Lights are now used to get a faster maturity in puller-ts, prevent molt, stop bossism, and help maintain bet- ter health in the flock through bet-‘ ber management. Mest paultrycmen agree that the use of lights in the fall and winter months is profit» able. ' Chick’n Chats “vices to retail +rad-e large ... _ ..

RICHMONU HILL, ONTARIO “I’m sorry,” said the landlady, “but your other collar hasn’t come back from the laundry yet.” i “The monetary value of the damâ€" ‘ age done by rats in Canada is enor- 1 mous. To prevent this damage rats should be denied: access to places where they obtain food and rear their young. That is every lbnillii- ing- should «be made ratâ€"nroof. This would entail the adoption and end foncement of sanitary conditions by civic and health authorities and- the‘ institution of a continuous Domin- ionâ€"wide community campaign. Trap- ping- and poison are effective means of destroying rats, but the use of poison is fraught with danger and difficulty and its use in houses is inadvisable, both on account of the danger and the likelihood that dead rats in inaccessible places would( prove objectionable. Information as At the conclusion of a. dispute 'With his Iandflady the ledger re- marked‘ icily‘: “I presume you will' ’allow me to take my belongings 'with me when I leave your house?” to the best methods of controlling rats may be obtained from the Do- miniron Entomologist, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, Ottawa.” world, notwithstanding statements which have been made that this rat is probably decreasing in numbers.” Attack Poultry “It invades houses, stores, ware- houses and markets and besides de- stroying fabrics and leather goods, attacks all kinds of food â€"â€" grains, meats, groceries, fruits, vegetables, and in short everything eatalble. In town and country it attacks poultry, destroying eggs and chickens. Even the foundations of buildings, also, are damaged by its activities. In its widespread distribution, the rat destroys unceasingly, and‘ yet its presence is too often tolerated.” Breeds Fast “The cemmon brown rat fbreeds 6 to 10 times a year and‘ produces an average of 1-0 young at a litter. Young females breed when only three or four months old. At this rate, a pair of rats, breeding unin- terruptedly and without deaths, would at the end‘ of three years (18 gen~ erations) 'be increased to 369,709,- 482 individuals. In addition to be- ing the world’s most inveterate de- stroyer of food, the thrown rat is a menace to health. It is a carrier of bubonic plague, one of the most deâ€" vastating of human disease, “the Black Death,” which has been car- ried by the rat all over the world.” servation of food supplies in Canada under war conditions, a notorious destroyer of food, the common rat, is still at large, carrying out its work of destruction. Dr. Arthur‘ Giibson, Dominion Entomologist, em- phasizes that the common brown or house rat must still be regarded as man’s greatest enemy in the animal world, now/ithstanding statements which have been made that this rat the Dominion Department of Agri- culture, in a special bulletin» in which it emphasizes the importanée of conserving food supplies because of war conditions, says.
