II is the common practice to let the
chickens run until along toward fall,
when the cockerels are caught and

the cockerels yield fair profit This
profit can be greatly increased by fat

~ GOD blood counts in poultry as
well as In any other class OF
live stock, If the chickens
and eggs are produced for
market purposes only they may be inn
proved by purchasing pure bred males
Of the desired breed every year. At
best, however, the flock can only be
made high grade by this method The
enterprising poultryman will soon be-
gin 70 long for a flock of pure breds.
Such flock, If carefully selected and
bred, furnishes a splendid source Of In
come that Is largely independent of
the market price Of eggs or dressee
poultry. The demand for choice pure
bred eggs fN setting and for pure
bred males is good and the price very
satisfactory. A trade Of this kind
when once established will add con
slderably to the income from the
farm.
Getting a Start In Pure BREEDS.
Even where the flock is kept for
market purposes only ii pays to have
pure breds. They look better and give
more economical returns for the food
eaten. The cheapest way to get start
In pure breds is TO buy sitting or
two Of eggs. 1t is Of utmost impor-
tance that they be purchased Of some
reliable breeder; otherwise disappoint.

sist that the eggs be not more than
five days old when shipped that they
