SMALL BREEDS FOR EGGS.
A Writer Who Thinks That Large
Fowls Are Not Most Profitable.

Fowls Are Not Most Profitable.
The largest profits do not always lie
in the greatest amount of money OBJ
tanned for an article, the cost Of pro-
duction affecting the net gain very
materially.
1 think no one will dispute me, says
VIII L. Clark in American Poultry
Journal, when l say 1t will require
nearly double the amount Of feed to
keep a flock of hens weighing from six
to ten pounds each than would be re-
auired to keep the same number weigh
ing, say, three and one-half or four
pounds each, and at the same time
these smaller breeds cannot be excelled
when it comes to Smelling out eggs.
Mr.. Clark goes on to say: Another
point in favor of the smaller breeds is
that less room is required, both in the
pen and In the yard. And a larger
number can be kept on the same area.
The Hamburg has always been my ia
vorite, and they are certainly the light
est feeders and greatest hustlers of any
breed that has ever come under my
observation, and yet combine beauty
and egg production to marked degree,
having long been known as "everlast-
ing layers"
If you are already established in the
poultry business and are satisfied with
the breed you have, do not change.
Stick to them, resolved to give them a
little better care in the future, and
success will be yours.
But if you are just about to begin,
with a view to egg production, try
some one of the smaller breeds, and
believe at the end of the year when
you come to balance up receipts and
expenditures that the results will not
prove disappointing.

RoYer,s Hen Ciucks.

"Uncle" Michael K. Boyer, the
"dean of practical poultrymen," has
the following chunks Of wisdom in
Farm Journal:
The mortgage lifting hen is in evil
dence.
One years experience does not make
an expert poultryman.
Utility is the science and beauty Of
the art of poultry keeping.
Trained thinking and wise working
is the keynote of success.
The success you will have with poul-
try depends upon the care you will
give.
Open the doors and windows of the
poultry house each fine day and let in
the sun and fresh air
An increased supply of poultry prod
ucts of the highest class would I'M
doubtedly lead to an increased con-
sumption.
The poultry business is comparative
ly easy to learn by ambitious, energetic
persons, and it is this class alone that
will gain marked success.
This is a practical country" writes
Judge G. o. Brown, "and breeding
fowls for mere fancy or beauty alone
will never become popular. Beauty
and utility should be twins in poultry
raising"

Don't Crowd the Chicks.

Not more than fifty chicks should be
put together in one brooder, and in two
weeks these should be divided into two
lots of twenty-five each. Where too
many chicks are put together they are
very liable to crowd and those in the
center become overheated and when
exposed to the air become chilled, and
bowel trouble and various other dis
eases set in and the chicks die very
rapidly from no apparent cause.

acknowledged the finest fowl on the
market. Its breast being long, deep

in texture and flavor, the greatest cpl

quality and quantity on Sussex fowl
