December is usually a cold month
therefore take precautions about hous-
ing carefully the breeds which are
lightly feathered. such as leghorns
The heavier feathered breeds. such as
the Asiatics. can stand almost any
low temperature out-of-doors. The
Cultivator and Country Gentleman
has the following suggestions to offer:
Feed for eggs from now until spring
This is a different process from tina;
pursued when birds are running out
and the fields are green.
Keep houses very clean-drop boards
especially. s..a. e.
Keep laying stock busy,-never over
feed. Always have something in tn.
coop to occupy your hens, grain in lit
ter or cabbage hung up.
Kerosene your roosts, upper and un-
der side, every week. Yr
Gull for the last time. and sell all
poor specimens. keeping only your bes;
for breeders. Watch your layers care
fully. Mark, if possible, the hen which
begins to lay first: she will be a val
liable breeder for early egg producers.
