The Selection of Lnrern

Much has been written regarding egg
type or the picking out of layers from
their shape. We believe there is some
thing in it. We believe that bright,
active hen, with rather long, deep
body, is better layer than n sluggish
acting, compact or rounded bodied one.
Yet there is far more in breeding than
in selection. If we want layers we must
breed from noted layers. Like will
beget like" and a noted layer will be
more likely to produce layers than a
poor layer. So the only way to be sure
TO get good layers is to breed them. Not
only must the hen be good layer but
the cock must be from the same strain.
This will necessitate in-breeding some
what, but with good judgment and un-
limited range, this will not hurt the
strain unless persisted in too long. It
is best to use two fiocks that are not re-
lated at the start.-Farmers' Review.

Progress in PIg-Rnising.

The man who has his pigs come out at
q time when he must feed them through
the winter and into the next fall before
he can get them on the market is a
loser in the sense that he does not get
as much for the grain he feeds as does
his neighbor who makes his solicitations
so as to enable him to sell his pigs the
fall after they are farrowed, saving him
self the extra winter feed that is re-
quired TO carry the animal through the
cold weather. The modern hog is born
to grow fat and get on the market at
six or eight months, and IL he is kept
longer he is n bill of expense to his
owner.-Farmers' Voice.

one of the least considerations in the

jelly, as a rule, has nothing in it that
