EGGS in THE WINTER
ONLY WAY TO MAKE HEN KEEP.
ING PROFITABLE.
Woman of Experience Tells What Is
Necessary to Keep the Occupants Of
the Poultry Yard at Work During
the Cold Months.

Those whose hens do not lay during
the winter months, would be better off
without hens. This seems like laying
down the law, but It is nevertheless q
fact. Those who keep hens because it
is a pleasure need look for no other
profit if they are amused; but when
chickens are kept with the hope that
they will put money into the pocket
of their owners. they must be made
to lay through the winter, while eggs
bring prices. How can make them
lay? is a question often put. Now
there are few birds that will not lay
through cold weather, no matter how
good the care, and If the breeder hap

Ans.-No such rule as is suggested

the reason that wool varies in weight

The next important step is sheds
open sheds facing south with good
roofs and deep enough to prevent
snow or rain drifting right in. The
front should be covered either with
wire netting or Stats, so that the fowls
can be shut in during wet weather.
Fresh air is a great essential for egg
production. If the birds are put into
close, warm houses during the night
and allowed out into the cold morning
air, they become chilled and eggs are
out of the question. A cosy house, air
tight, as TO cracks and floor can be
built in the corner of the shed.
