The secret of success IN securing large
stock IF eggs. is this Have your chicks
bat.hed in February or March. Leghorn
chicks win lay when four months old Brah-
mas when FIVE to six months old. Now, as
they do not monlt until the second autumn
after they are haiched, vou can see. by count
ing time, how it is that early hatched chicks
have the advantage over those late hatched.
.Say.a lot of chickens are hatched ia the
middle of March. All the young cocks will
be fit for market in three months If well fed,
and weigh from five TO six pounds per pair,
accordingt 70 kind. The pnllets will lay when
four months old--the middle of July-and
will Law right on from July, 1871, TO Septem-
Der or October, lS72-that is. they have four
teen months laying time, or up TO the moult-
ing time in the next year after they are
hatched. Remember they do not moult the
first autumn following their birth. :.
1t is therefore plainly to be seen that the
gain or profit in poultry, when kept for eggs,
is in having early haiched pullets. BY this
method, II to l5 months laying time with
little cessation is secured. Every month lat
