AS to Roasters.

For roasting, Il young fowl about full
grown, but still soft mcated, is used,
and to roast satisfactorily it must be
moderately fat. Roasters are roughly
classed as small rcasters' and large
roasters." The greatest demand is for
small roastcrs. weighing four or five
pounds each. though the demand for
large roasters, weighing eight or nine
pounds each. IS steadily increasing. Vel
low skin and yellow legs are more gen.
orally demanded than white skin and
dark legs.

Chicks pxinn In the Shell.

There are many causes of chicks
dying in the shell, chief of them being
poor condition of the breeding stock
from which the eggs for Matching
were taken. Breeding from overfat
hens from birds that have been forced
for heavy laying, or that are debili-
tated from any cause, is u common
source of this trouble. Where imma-
ture breeding stock is used there will
usually be considerable percentage
of chicks dead in the she'll

"CannibaI" Chickens,

Some broods of chicks will form can
nibal habits of picking one another in
spite of almost anything one can do.
When once the habit is formed it Is
very difficult to remedy. Divide the
chicks into small fiocks, not over
twenty-five or thirty each. provide
them with q litter of NOW sweepings,
cut clover or alfalfa TO scratch In and
see that they are plentifully supplied
with granulated bone and beef scrap
In addition to their grain food. Keep
charcoal always before them.

The soil will TO Il considerable extent
influence the color of the legs and
beak. Birds running on good grass
land and fed freely on yellow corn will
usually have yellow legs and beak, If
of the yellow legged varieties. Birds
from the same strain running on
sandy, dry soil, even on the same
ration, or ranging on dry alkali soils,
will frequently have light colored legs
and beak Feeding corn is Il great
help toward getting desired color in
beaks and legs. but good run on
fresh grass land and opportunity to
run in the grass when the dew is on
it will do more to put rich color into
the legs than anything else.
