The Florin Reservolr
On a hill situated north west of
Florin stands the Florin Reservoir.
This reservoir was erected DY H.W
Weaver. When he chartered it he
secured a arter for M Joy town-
sh ne knowing that pike di-
vide M loy and East Donegal
Townships After Mr. Weaver had
Se( «1 the charter he proceeded to
lay the pipes mot only in Mt Joy
township but also in East Donegal.
When a certain eapitalist saw this
he threatened to sue Mr
and applied for the charter
Weaver
for East
Donegal He thought that he could
diminish the area supplied by Mr.
Weaver, thus leaving fewer patrons
for Mr. Weaver and that in this way
Mr. Weaver would be forced to sell
But luckily Mr. Weaver also ap-
nlied for the charter, and his charter
s now signed and the water supply
onsoli ted, which is very bene-
ficial to Florin.

THE REASON. |
The City Man—What! Fifteen

board ain’t scarce about here!
The Countryman — I koow, but]

Wholesale Burning of Books.
The French should win Edmund |
Gosse’s commendation for the whole- |
sale manner in which they have de- |
stroyed books. Taey e even gone |
to tae extent of coir special |
word, “bibliolytie,” to « “la de- |
struction volontaire des livres.” The |
greatest date in the annals of biblio- |
the box 12 inches from the rear end
and 15 inches from the front end. The
rear section is the nest proper
Instead of having the partition be-
tween the two parts of the nest made
with a cireular hole, it is possible to
have simp'y a straight board partl-
tion extending up 6 inches from the
bottom, as shown at ¢. Th artition
with circular opening is, however,
recommend ad
There a everal reasons why the
circular op ning appears to be better
than the straight board across the
bottom of the nest. Experience has
shown that a hen is less likely to go
back and forth between the two com-
partments after » has laid when
there Is only ts small cir
cular opering between them, than
when there is ¢ ning. This
reduces tiie broken
eggs
The front portion of the nest has
no fixed bottom Instead there 1s a
movable bottom or treadle, b, which
is hinged at the back’'end to ¢ To
this treadle is hinged the door, a, ol
the nest Phe treadle is made of
%-inch pine stuff with 1%2-in hard
wood cleats at ch end to hold the
rew hich faste the hinges. It i
12 inche ide and 1214 inches long
Across it ac j behind
the hinges holdin he door, is nailed
a pine stri i incl wide beveled
on both sides, a: own r door
t 1s not made solid, but is an
1 to the side f which
is fastened (wit , » cleats)
a rectangular pi ) 1 sh
d sereening (dimensions 8
by 9 inches)
The sides of the dc Ar trips of
8;-inch beech stuff 12 inches long and
11% inche ide halved at the ends,
| to join to the top and bottom of the
door. The top of the door Is a strip
of hard wood 13 inche long and 1%
inches wide, halved in 234 inches trom
each end. The projecting ends of this
top strip serve as stops for the door
when It closes
The bottom of the door is a hard-
wood strip 101%; by 4 inches. The side
strips are fitted Into the ends of this
bottom strip in such way as to pro-
ject slightly (about 1-32 inch) above
the front surface of that strip, for a
reason which will be apparent
When the nest is open the door ex
| tends horizontally in front, as shown
by the cut. In this position th
| strips of the door rest on a strip of
beech 11% inches wide beveled on the
inner corner This beech is nailed |
to a board 4 inches wide, which forms
the front of the nest box proper
To the bottom of this is nailed a |
strip 2 inches wide into which are set
4-inch spikes from which the he ads |
have been cut. The treadle rests on |
these spikes when the nest is closed,
as shown by the dotted lines
METRY wir)
Young chicks need grit as well 2a
their seniors.
We are apt to neglect the hens dur- i
ing the late summer months, particu- |
larly in August.
Never allow incubator chicks to be-
come chilled. One-half the {ills of |
young chickens arise from this cause
Nature does not provide green teud |
during the winter months, but occa- |
sionally cabbage or green alfalfa hay
is beneficial.
No use to try to raise turkeys un-
less the poults are kept free from lice
They should be examined at least ev
ery ten days
At the first sign of droopiness in a
chick, separate it from the rest of the
flock; and if ft does not quickly re-
cover, use the ax and burn the body
It is a busy time now in the poultry |
yard, but it means some good meat for
the table, some valuable stock for sale |
| and some good winter layers coming |
| on.
Even a warm rain is bad for very
young chicks and arrangements |
should be made so they can get to |
shelter quickly when the showers
come
For sorehcad, use a tablespoonful o
bluestone to a guart ol water, and |
bathe the pu? roughly once or
