hundreds Of requests for the moving

been received from universities, col

The health board of Florida has pro-
hibited the keeping of horses or mules
within 500 feet Of a dwelling, unless
precautions are taken to prevent
breeding of flies. Similar rules have
been passed by Georgia. Wisconsin
and Indiana.
The American Consumers league
has joined the American Civic asso-

many state anti-consumption %associa-
tons. Mrs. Robert S. Bradley, chair
man of the food committee of the
Woman's Municipal league of Boston,

Owners of stables here who violate
sanitary regulations will be prose

to put their fly screens in shape and

Farmers should eat more oatmeal.

Although the farmer of today Is able
to buy almost anything he wants ia
veal or eat he isn't paying enough

quent mistake Of the farmer is to
hatch the pullets out so late that the
cold weather catches them immature
and they remain stunted and undevel-
Oped and never begin laying until the
season Of high prices is past.
The early hatched pullets should be
kept laying steadily from November
until the following August. AS to
whether they are to be sold at this
time or kept throughout the second
year Of laying there is considerable
dispute among poultrymen. 1t has
been very carefully figured out, how
ever, that hens lay during the second
year about two-thirds as many eggs
as during their pullet year. It is
worth at least IS cents to 81 to bring
a pullet to laying maturity. With a
yield Of $50 eggs during the pullet
year we may expect 100 eggs from the
hen during the second year. This loss
Of raising an extra pullet to replace
the one we would sell, so 1t is practi-
cally an even break as to whether pull
let's should be sold at the end Of their
first laying year or kept throughout
the second season. The majority of
poultrymen keep hens for laying the
two years.
Climate.
Climate and soil are essential fac
tors in egg production, but, Of course,
cannot be controlled by the poultry
man who is once located. The chief
expense in egg production is the extra
care and food necessary in the winter
months. Likewise, in spite Of all ef- |
forts, the poorest results are obtained |
at this season of the year; hence the
advantage OF being In a climate and |
with soil where hens can run out
doors at all seasons of the year. Light
sandy soils even with the same tenn
perature are much better for poultry
for the reason that snow does not last |
long upon them and grass and grain
would keep growing. where in heavier
soil they would have long since dwin-
He'd away.
The heavy egg production Of the
Australia egg laying contest. which
las excited considerable comment in
his country. has to be largely aseCib-
d to the mild winter climate in the
egion where the contest was held.
