This is but one of the many ecoaomies and practical advantages of a shingle rrcf over a flatter rml with substitute covering, rar wrm (rt3 pacr Z)

The droppings bmrd projects sufficiently to permit of litter carri:r box extending under edge so that droppmgs may be removed quickly and easily. The same carrier, with interchangeable trays or cars, serves equal- ly well in gathering eggs, in carrying feecl and litter, and in moving fixtuies and equipment.

In extraordinarily hot climat:s front panel undrr opening may be hmged at top in 8ections of convenient length to gain additional circulation.

A poultry house should be built on com- paratively level ground. Where it is imperative to build dn a steep slope and is yet impractical to level ofi or grade the site, it may be found necessary to adopt a post and girder construction.
