the farmer to increase his profits, 1t
seems to me that that Is the way to
begin. The country wants eggs and
poultry, and we cannot get these by
building on a foundation OF feathers
or fancy points. Let the foundation
be of eggs and poultry meat. We can
then build superstructure with
feather trimmings. II we want eggs
let us first get a hen that lays, no mat
ter what her color or shape. Let us
study her external characters, and
when we find that certain characters
or points indicate the good layer, let
us breed for those characters regard
less Of everything else. Then, after
we have developed an egg type and
have got sufficiently large flock we
may. IL we wish, give some attention
to feathers; but let us adhere strictly
to the egg type and breed for eggs.
We will make slow improvement in
breeding without an egg record for
each hen In the flock. This record can
be obtained only by the use OF the
trap nest. which is about the best
thing We have yet discovered in the

CBy JAMES DRYDEN.)

Poultry breeders have been telling
us for years that the pure-bred poul-
try are the best layers, and this is
echoed and re-echoed every day In
the year by the poultry papers, and
most OF us have come to believe It.
But has any one ever been able to
demonstrate by careful experiments
or tests that the pure-breds are bet
ter layers than the cross-breds or the
ordinary farmyard fowl?
We are apt to tell the farmers
every day that they know nothing
about poultry; that they ought to
study up. We tell about this system
and that system, and special poultry
farms, and tell them to go and do
likewise. But he goes on in his own
ignorance and produces 100000, 900
worth of poultry and eggs year
while a certain egg farm produces
$4,000 and a certain system" pro-
duces $500 In one year on vacant
lot.

weak chickens. and then to go on to
farm and see running around the
barnyard. without apparent attention
or care. thrifty. robust. lively chick
ems. The farmer Is the best poultry
man In the country. We are the slaves
of the dogma of the feather and the
standard. and the farmer produces
the eggs.
The way to develop the poultry In
dustry-one way-is to stop advocat-
ing pure-bred or standardized fowls
for the farmer The way for the
farmer to increase his profits Is to
get away from the dunghill idea and
to avoid fancy-hred fowls. He should
decide on /theSt Of fowl to breed
and forget the names Of the breeds.
Let him decide. bearing In mind the
conditions of his markets, whether he
wants an egg type or small fowl;
meat type, a large fowl; or general
purpose or medium-sized fowl, and
then purchase pure-bred males OF the
proper type and Of good vigor. and
grade ND his flock. The way for the
farmer to start in the poultry business
10 to buy a few cross-bred fowls. or
eggs from cross-bred fowls from his
neighbor, and then use pure-bred
males to grade up his flock.
Feather is all right, pure-bred fowls
are all right, but the question is, shall
the farmer make feathers and fancy
points OF primary or secondary i'm
portance. It is no use talking to the
farmer about fancy points. or about
standard or perfection, unless we can
show him that there is some connec-
ton between them and productive
qualities. He is not concerned about
such things. He is concerned about
supplying the market with poultry
and eggs.

Locating Henhouses.

Farmers who locate their poultry
houses with the front toward the
sunny side. who keep the fowls well
supplied with extra scratch food, grit
and balanced rations and protects
them at all times from dampness and
chills at night, will have no trouble to
get full egg basket, says a writer in
an exchange. The soil should be of q
light type, so the poultry can easily
scratch and dust themselves in order
to get rid Of the mites and lice. 1t is
necessary to drain OF any water that
may settle in hollows and later be-
come foul The henhouse should be
protected from the north wind by the
barn. prefer the management OF a
hennery by making winter and its sur
roundings as nearly like summer as
possible.

II you have lot of meat bones on

them, put them In the stove and burn
them till they can be broken easily

they will do in place of meat as well
as being very healthy and take the
