HARTLEY — - Prop. New Hazelton Many people would like to keep chickens but think they have not the time. But if they really knew what little time it takes to care for half a dozen birds. there would no. doubt. be more city plants than there are at present. At one time the keeping of], chickens was only for the subur- banite, but since:the introduc- tion of the small coop, the. city man with a plot of. ground six feet square can have the pleas- ure of eggs that are-fit to eat.” The time it” takes’ ‘to ‘attend to half a dozen birds is go little that everybody can make time; a half an hour in. the morning, a few minutes at. night, and about’ an hour Sunday:-morning is about all the time ‘required. It ‘is system © that's” needed, more than time. If-you. area methodical man, you have all the equipment necessary. _ Several years ago there was a young fel- low came down our way, who wanted to keep chickens, but. living in the city was a draw- back; but upon investigation’ he found out the: possibilities there are even for the city man. cE ‘He. was:a methodical man! It was not long..hefore a coop was built, ‘and half ‘a-dozen pullets made him a full fledged: chicken man. In the morning he spent'a half hour with -his birds; in this time he took. out and cleaned the dropping board, threw. the.morn- ing feed in the straw ‘end. of the coop, dug up and buried “some. ‘oats in the dirt end, - filled. up: the | water fountains, and the. flock '|.. *.- were fixed for the day. The evening feed was. given by his wife, dropping board put in place, and the coop closed down. for the night; of course it was necessary. for some one to collect the eggs, but. thisis one part of the chicken business that: never neglected; itis also advis. able to give fresh water to the flock at noon, also. a ‘good supply. of green food. - This is. all the. attention a ‘flock’ oe needs six days a week. OnSun-. day this man “arranged every- thing else for a week...
