Early Pullets.

Pullets hatched in early spring are the

average farmer, for With good care and
judlcious feeding they will begin laying in

by having commenced before winter has
fairly set in. says writer in contempo-
rary, they will continue to lay through
the winter, when eggs are worth three
times as much as they are ut any other
time OF the year, provided they nave a
warm shelter from winters cold. Then
too, when early sitting time comes again
next spring, they will have laid several
sittings of eggs and if mated to good
healthy bird, the eggs will be as large as
from adult hens. Pallets hatched late
are almost worthless as breeders next
spring, for they will be small when win
ter sets in, and get stunted by cold Wea-
ther; and when sitting time comes in the
spring they will only have commenced
laying, and the eggs will be worthless for
Matching purposes. And if they hatch at
all, the chicks are liable to be weakly and
not strong, as they would be if coming
from older hens. Farm and Home, Eng
