1t is not an easy matter to know
which of your hens are the best lay.
ers. Of course. some of the hens will
lay more eggs than others, yet to find
out which are the more profita BILE the
record cannot cease with a few hens.
Nor is the greatest profit derived
from the hens that lay the largest
number of eggs, but from those that
lay the greater number when prices
are high There is more profit in
two dozen eggs at 30 cents per dozen
than from three at 20 cents a dozen,
although the sum-60 cents-is the
same for both lots, for the reason
that the cost of two dozen is less
than for three dozen. A hen may lay
we'll from April to July, and appar-
emily be an extraordinary layer be-
cause she lays an egg every other
day, but after awhile she may do
very little, and another hen that does
not seem to be doing her duty. slowly
reaches the number and still keeps
on laying. The record should be,
therefore, kept for year. and an av-
erage for each month made. The best
hens for the year should then be re-
tanned as breeders, from which TO
hatch the next seasons pullets, and
they should then be mated with a
cocllerel of good laying family. so
as to secure better progeny than the
parents. The prices, number of eggs
laid, number of chicks Matched and
amount in value produced by each
hen, should be noted, so as to assist
in the selection with knowledge of
the characteristics of each, and merit

BR0ILERS FOR MARKET.
This Is a Business That Pays quite
Well, Ii Conducted on Common
Sense Principles.

Some one asked, a short time ago,
about rearing broilers for market.
First, the breed. Ii seems from the
various reports of broiler raisers,
that Plymouth Rocks are almost the
ideal breed for the purpose, the only
objection TO the Barred is the dark
pin feathers, which objection does
not hold good with the White Rocks.
White Wyandottes are hard to beat,
also. The idea is to get a breed that
will stand forcing and will present a
nice appearance dressed at the age
you should market for broilers.
The first day they are fed sand,
after that they should be fed every
two hours during the day. The first
week they should be fed rolled oats,
millet seed and cracked corn, sweet
milk, sand and powdered charcoal;
the next week add mash, and use a
greater proportion of cracked corn;
the third week and on until mar
keted, for breakfast feed cracked
corn, then chopped raw potatoes. A
meat mill is the thing for this, then
chopped cabbage, next mash, and last
full feed of cracked corn. Before
this last meal no more is given than
will be eaten up quickly; if from any
cause they fail to be hungry, miss a
meal or two. This will generally
bring them around all right. The
last few feeds before marketing stir
cotton seed meal and treacle (mo-
lasses) in the mashes. this is to give
them the rich yellow color desired.
At the end of the eighth week the
birds should average almost, if not
quite, two pounds each. Continuing
this course. by Is weeks they should
make SO pound roasters. 1t is i'm
possible to get such results from
mongrei stock, but of course, should
you be compelled to use them, such
feeding is bound to result in quick
growth. Emma Clearwaters, in Ohio

The season is at hand when large
broilers will be demanded. Every
chick that viii dress 90 or 80 ounces

AS warm weather approaches it is
well to discard all sloppy foods, and
feed only sound, dry grain, either
whole or coarsely ground.
May is the season to hatch the

FANCY PIGEON LORE.
In England the Poutcr and FantaiI
Breeds are in Great Demand for
the show Rooms.

The extreme of artificial develop
ment in the pigeon family is repre-
sented in the Pouter and Fantail
breeds. Although little valued in the
food market, they are great favorites
in the show rooms, and quite popular
as pets. In some sections the inter
est is so great that the pigeon entries
form one of the most prominent fea-
lures of important poultry shows.
Good strains of the fancy breeds are
often very profitable on account of
the steady demand for breeding
stock.
The stately Pouter cock, as por-
trayed, was sketched from a winning
bird shown in England by the we'll
known Scotchman and writer on pig
cons, Robert Fulton. These birds
have in their show cases a pedestal
on which to stand that they may pose
erect, this being the ideal carriage
for Pouters, as the length of their
tails prevents the bird from standing
straight when shown on the floor of
the show cage. Length and slender
ness of girth are properties quite as
much looked for in these birds as in
the large, roundIy inflated crop. The

eggs, such as are laid by Partridge

4 STATELY PoUTER COOK.

Pouter was a point to which Mr.. Full
ton especially called my attention as
being much coveted and priced by
fanciers.
These birds measure from IS to 20
inches from top of beak to tip of tail.
The legs should also be long--6 to z
inches being expected on a good bird
and to stand well up a bird requires
good length of limb. 1t was my good
fortune to see the model of the por-
trait of the Faintail in the lofts of
his breeder, not long before the ex-
portation to this country. The pre-
caution which the owner took in
handling this specimen while show
ing it to me was only a sample of the
great care taken by the British fan
ciers in rearing the birds and training
them for show purposes. The way in
which the show Fantail is picked mp
means almost as much for The devel-
opment of a wel-formed and we'll
carried tail as does the birds very
breeding. Not a feather must be
twisted or displaced, not a movement
of the head restrained the car
riage of these birds heads is valued
point if correct, and very offensive to
a judge of them if the bird is def
cient in this respect. l have seen
these birds so proud and strutting, so
high on tiptoe, that their gait, if so
it might be called, was but dancing
and apparently as many steps were
taken backward as forward. while
scarcely a half dozen in succession
were performed either way.-Frank-
