TRAP NESTS Make RECORDS.

X TRAP NESTS Make RECORDS.
"A trap nest is a simple device to
catch the hen when she enters to lay.
AS she passes into the nest she presses
against a trigger which holds up the
door and it falls down behind her.
When she has laid the egg it is NUM-
bered to correspond with the number
on the hens leg band. This enables
the breeder to keep each hens eggs
separate with perfect accuracy.
Attempts to improve the egg-nro-
ducing qualities Of the hen date to
the domestication Of the hen, but it
has only been within the last few
years that rapid progress has been
possible in this work. The inability
to determine the good layers has been
the difIiculty.
With the perfection Of the trap nest
this difficulty has been removed and
many poultry breeders are now en-
gagged in the production Of egg-laying
strains of fowls.
The great majority Of people make
no selection of hens from which to
hatch their stock The eggs Of the
whole flock are kept together, and
when eggs are desired for Matching
they are selected from general bas-
ket.
It has been assumed and Is shown
by trap nest reeords that seggs thus
selected in the spring of the year are
from the poorer rather than from the
better layers This Is because the
hens that have not been laying dur
ing the winter will lay very heavily
during the. spring season. ~ Kansas.

cAREFUL on young HORSES.

O1A4NAI& 81 NJ = WAN AA0ANAAt0s
Many times great mistakes are
made when we begin handling young
horses. Farm and Home, Of London,
touching this subject, says very truly
that young horses temper may cas-
lily be spoiled during the time Of first
handling them, especially when
brought into the stable, If roughly
treated. and adds:
"Fillies, 1t may be mentioned, are
generally particularly nervous or
timid, and therefore require more
considerate treatment than geldings,
which usually have more equable
temperament and take things more
calmly. A point to which special at
tention may be called is that care
should be exercised in leading young
horses through the doorway Of the
stable. They very frequently evince
some aversion to passing through 1t
at first, and If they are punished for
hanging back, being forced to go on
with the whip, or otherwise roughly
treated in these circumstances, they
sometimes take permanent dislike
to entering doorways, first hanging
back and then suddenly rushing
through them, which is most discon-
certing, and may cause them to In
jure their hips. This trick is a great
nuisance, and once acquired 1t is diff
ficult to eradicate. Further, when a
young horse which hangs back at a
doorway is hustled through 1T inva
rough manner It is aptito throwsup it's
head and bang it against the tor.
This mishap may easily cause 1t to be-
come shy Of entering doorway IN
future. quite apart from the fact that
blow on the head brought about in
this fashion may give rise to the In
jury known as poll-evii. Whenever
young horses show any reluctance to
pass through thedoorWay they should
be coaxed to go ca, by cabling and
gentling them. one should refrain
from adopting any forceful or rough
treatment, and with a little patience
they can easily be- induced to over
come their trepidation and to go
through quite willingly"

WHEN TO FEED POULTRY FOOD.

There is prevailing notion with a
certain class Of poultrymen that il
doesn't pay to force laying fowls dur
ing the warm summer mOnths-that
they will get along very well with or
binary food and what they can pick
up about the yards. That this opinion
is not shared by the most progressive
poultrymen is shown by the fact that
