Makes an Ideal Drinking
Trough, Which Is Kept

By H. Armstrong; Roberts

COPYRIGHT, 1915.
The providing of fresh water for
poultry is a matter that is often neg
lected, ami the results of such neglect
are quickly evident in deoTea-sed egg
yields and often in disease among the
flocks. In this article Mr. Rol>erts
shows how the lMiultryman may In
stall an automatic system that will
insure a constant and sanitary supply
of water.
A CHICKEN would rather drink
from a cow's hoof-prlnt than
from a fountain of clean, pure
water, yet that is no reason why she
should be allowed to do so. any more
than she should he permitted to eat
tainted animal food, which any fowl
will devour with great relish. Clean
water in large quantities, easy of ac
cess, is one of the chief essentials to
success with poultry, and the provid
ing of it is one of the most laborious
tasks in a commercial plant, unless
there is some system of distributing
it hy mechanical power or gravity.
The way in which a fowl drinks
would seem to Indicate that she con
sumes only a few drops of water in a
day. yet in reality she drinks close to
a half-pint, especially during the
heavy laying season, for the egg it
self is something like sixty per cent,
water. Thus we find that in a house
of five hundred layers the actual dailv
water consumption is more than
thirty gallons, or almost a barrel. If
this were to be carried by hand, five
gallons at a time, six trips to and
from the well or other source of sup
ply would be necessary. But this
merely allows for actual consumption,
with no surplus for cooling or sanitary
purposes—a highly Important consid
eration.
Water Should BP Kept Clean
Every time a fowl drinks she in
variably washes her beak in the water.
This may leave in the water only a
few grains of dirt or mash feed, but
in the course of a day the quantity of
foreign matter carried into a drinking
fountain is surprising. Moreover, un
less the fountains are very carefully
arranged, a certain amount of litter
will also be scratched or dusted into
the water. Where fowls are strong
and healthy, they can throw off a fair
amount of this contamination. As it
is almost impossible to insure abso
lutely pure water in a fountain or open
vessel of any kind, it is advisable to
have such fountains of large capacity,
in order that the degree of pollution
may be lessened and the dangers re
duced to a minimum.
It is far more economical to pro
vide five times the quantity of water
actually consumed, than to attempt to
keep fountains fresh and sanitary by
scrubbing or washing: them. For'this
reason, and because it seems to be
human nature to forget to give ade
quate attention to drinking facilities,
great pains should be taken to make
the watering system as near automatic
and germproof as possible. With a
little common mechanical ability and
a few tools, this can be done at mod
erate expense.
If a poultry farm has access to a
municipal water supply, or if there
Is a storage tank on the premises, the
work of equipping the buildings with
an ideal system is half accomplished,
since it Is then a simple matter to lay
underground pipes connecting each
house with the main supply.
Where this convenience is not avail
able, a small gasoline engine of about
one horsepower, with a pumpjack
erected over an ordinary forcepump,
may be installed at a cost not exceed
ing SSO, and will prove entirely satis
factory. If this outlay is too great,
the forcepump may he operated by
hand, a few minutes every day.
Instead of an overhead storage tank,
barrels (preferably charred whisky
containers which will serve to clarify
the water) may be stationed in the
various building at a trifling cost, and
will give sufficient pressure for a uni
form supply. The barrel should be
stood on end with the head intact, and
a neat hole bored in it for the feed
pipe. In this way the interior of the
barrel is protected from direct cur
rents of outside air, consequently the
water will not freeze to any extent in
cold weather, at least not enough to
retard its flow in a temperature above
10 degrees Fahrenheit.
Rain Gutter as Drinking Trough
An ordinary galvanized sheet Irori
ralngutter, or eavestrough. makes an
ideal contrivance for placing the wa
ter before the birds, and one that is
kept clean most easily. It should be
about fifteen feet long in a house of
five hundred layers. This trough Is
fastened to the front wall of the build
ing with hangers manufactured for
the purpose. The rolled or rounded
edge of the trough should face the
side from which the birds drink, and
be about ten inches off the floor, with
a slight drain toward the end farther
from the barrel. The tinsmith will
solder a plate at each end of the
trough, and also fit the end that is to
be farther from the barrel with an
overflow pipe and a drain. Both of
these may be of tubing half an inch In
diameter, fitted so that they discharge
outßld< the building.
The drain, of course, should lead
from the lowest point In the trough,
and be rounded nicely so that an ordi
nary cork may be used as a plug or
stopper. This arrangement facilitates
washing out the trough, and, If the
overflow pipe Is properly located, there
need be no fear of the trough over
flowing to the floor of the building.
About three Inches above the edges
of the gutter, allowing Just enough
space for the fowls to raise and lower
their heads in drinking, it is advisable
to fit a ten-Inch board over the entire
length of the trough. This will pre
vent the birds from jumping into it or
fouling the water. This board should
be hinged as shown in the accompany
ing sketch, so that it may be raised
for cleaning. Directly over the end of
the trough bore a hole In the lowest
practical point in the barrel and fit it
with a wooden faucet or tap. The
water supply is then under control,
and may he allowed either to trickle
or to run In a steady stream.
In the winter, when there Is likeli
hood of the water in the trough freez
ing over night, It may be drained off at
closlng-up time, and the spigot wrap
ped with a piece of woolen cloth. Un
less the temperature is extremely low,
the trough will not freeze in the day
tlma, inasmuch aa tha fowia are con
tinually drinking It; and the spigot

will not freeze because the water in
the barrel is considerably warmer than
the outside air.
System Proved Satisfactory
I have used a system of this kind
for several years, for flocks of from
500 to 800 birds, and have never ex
perienced a single disappointment.
Occasionally some of the fowls will
develop colds, or even roup, but they
are promptly caught, treated, and Iso
lated, thereby removing any danger of
an epidemic. An abundant supply of
water is furnished at all times, on the
principle that if dirt does get In the
trough it will quickly drain off. The
troughs are brushed out daily, and
about once a week a disinfectant is
used.
For the poultryman willing to con
sider a little more trouble, I have
contrived a similar arrangement that
it is absolutely impossible to contami
nate. A trough is constructed ex
actly as before, and three inches above ]
the center of this trough a half-inch |
galvanized iron pipe is run, drilled on |
the under side with holes 1-32 of an |
inch in diameter, spaced four inches >
apart. The pipe is connected to the |
barrel with a gatevalve that controls i
the pressure, and in this way just
enough water is allowed to enter the
pipe to maintain a slow drop from all
the holes. When the hen reached for
a drop, capillary attraction takes
place, whereupon the drop instantly
increases to a tiny stream. The
trough, of course, takes care of any
waste, and it is covered with a wire
grid so that the fowls cannot drink
from it. No cleaning of any kind is
required for this apparatus, since it is
Impossible for the birds to contami
nate It. It is the nearest approach to
an absolutely practical, sanitary water
supply that I know of, and has but
one disadvantage—it will not operate
In a freezing temperature.
Summer Care of the
Back Yard Flock
During the summer months the •
poultry kept in limited quarters |
require more careful attention
than at any other time. Lack of
free range and Insects and other
foods which the farmer's flock se
cures, must be compensated for If
the amateur poultryman is to se
cure best results. Next week Prof.
A. C. Smith, head of the Depart
ment of Poultry Husbandry, Uni
versity of Minnesota, will tell how
to manage a back-yard flock most
successfully, giving rules for care,
feeding and sanitation. Watch for
his article exclusively in the Tele
graph next Saturday.
