Now, when the young fowl in the
poultry yards are coming into matur-
ity, is the time to weed out the under
sirables and set aside the desirables
for the winters egg production. The
earlier the weak, inefficient fowl are
disposed of. the better.
When the farmer gets ready to weed
out his flock. he may well bear in
mind that the prime requisite OF farm
hens are early maturity. vigor and uni
formity.
Early maturity means quick devel-
opment and early laying.
Good constitutional vigor means the
ability to Withstand disease and the
strength to lay the whole season
through.

means that both the dressed fowls and
the eggs will sell to better advantage.
Any one who has marketed anything

Fall is the time to make the flock.
The pullets are just coming into lay
ing. 1t is easy to see which ones have
made the quick growth. The pullets
which lay first are likely to lay most.
Pick them out now and mark them
carefully. Or better still. save them
and sell the rest.

CORN SILAGE AS A

produce more milk. The cost of the
milk produced is materially lessened.
The young stock makes more rapid

In Iowa We have many good dairy
farmers. We are going to have great
many more In the next few years.
Still the masses Of our people have
been and will continue for some time
to come to be interested In some
phase Of the beef cattle industry.
Some are breeders Of pure-bred cattle.
some are concerned In the production
of baby beef and a large number are
engaged in the cattle feeding business.
