Select now the pullets for winter

keep many because they are beautiful,
If they are small, as such pullets will
not be Of sufficient age to begin laying
before cold weather sets in. As fowls,
old and young, are subject to the con-
ditiOns Of heat and cold. much labor
and expense can be saved by retaining
only those that come into full plum
age and reach the adult stage before
winter If a pullet begins to lay be-
fore winter she will then probably lay
right on through the winter; but should
she not begin in the fall, she will
probably defer such work until early
in the spring Use heroic and prompt
measures, by culling out the flock and
getting rid of every pullet that has not
reached stage Of growth that may en-
able it to give a profit There is no
sentiment in the keeping of fowls The
keeping Of poultry should be a business

Why some Grow Rich.
The great profits accruing to'manu-
facmrers arise from the fact that OF
their raw material every particle pos
sible is utilized SO that there is pos
itiyely no waste that can be avoided.
In the big packeries, every hoof, hair,
bone, the scurf that is scraped from
the skin, the contents from the in
testines are all used and made into
something that will sell for cash. If
farmers would turn their attention to
preventing waste there would be more
profit in their business. Frequently
great crops Of weeds are sacrificed that
would make excellent food for stock.
Valuable fertilizing material is left to
stink in heaps and have the soluble
matter leached out of it by rains. In
every department of the average farm
there is waste that would bankrupt a

weight of testimony, however, is to
the effect that the pest is not doing

much work for the weeyil to do. All
over south Texas there are weevils,
