White Holland Turkeys.

From the Farmers Review: AS
breeder of thoroughbred poultry for
some years, | would briefly state that
the White Holland turkey has proved
to be the most remunerative of any
breed of fowl have kept. Some claim
one tom is sufficient for ten to twenty
hens during the breeding season, but
| am successful when only seven to
nine hens are mated to one tom, and
I prefer seven. In the selection of
breeding stock | prefer a tom with
pure white plumage throughout, with
nice pink legs. standing up erect on
short, heavy leg bones, with heavy,
compact body and plump breast, and
not weighing less than SO pounds.
The hens should be of like stamp and
build, and not weigh less than is
pounds. When practical, mate old
hens with young tom and visa versa.
To insure fertility, turkeys must have
wide range. and never use siclSly
or weakly turkey in your breeding
flock under any circumstances, as 1t
is sure road to financial loss. Our
turkeys have the whole Of the farm
to roam over with eight acres of blue
grass. For nests we turn down open
ended sugar and cracker barrels. plac
ing litter therein with six-inch
board stsked down in front to pre-
vent eggs from rolling out When
the turkey hen lays her first laying
and wants to sit, break her up ant
in about two weeks she win com
mence laying again. Set the first eggs
laid under a chicken hen and let hei
sit, hatch and raise them. The mex
laying let the turkey hen sit, hatcl
and raise. When young poults hetcl
don't feed them for "a hours, and theI
give them pure, clean well water an'
feed light bread crumbs squeezed on
as dry as possible after sweet mill
