WILL NOW EXPERIMENT
 IN THE POULTRY CULTURE

Auburn, April 10.-EXperiments which will result in placing poultry culture in Alabama on a scientific basis have been launched, under the local experiment bill passed by the legislature in January. The bill carries an appropriation of $450O an- nupally, to be urged in local experiments with live stock. This includes poultry work.
 Working out from Auburn, local expert ment stations will be scattered through out the state. The first experimental cen- ter in this work has been established at Pinson, near Birmingham, on the poul- try farm of c. D. Allis. Prof. D. T. Gray of the department of animal industry al. Auburn, recently visited MT. Allis farm and made arrangements for the work.
 Among the most important questions which will come up for solution is a com parison of good chickens with scrub chick ems The eggs for the test are ready for the incubator and the test will be started immediately and continued for at least one year The final results will be measured in terms of eggs laid. Tests will also be made of the value of green and pasture crops for egg production. Several different pastures will be tested. as oats, rye, rape and others. It is ex- pected that excellent results will be se- cured from the use of these pastures, especially the winter growing ones.
 The farm with which MT. Allis is con- nected is one of the most extensive in Alabama poultry culture. As Brming- ham is probably tho greatest egg mar ket in the south, the Auburn authori- ties in charge of the local experiment work anticipates that mach good to the
 industry will accrue from the work. c. D. Alls, the experiment agent, is an Auburn graduate who studied the poultry work at Cornell also for 9 year
 Under the same appropriation Profess sor Gray's department will undertake To- cal experimental work in live stock. The beef experiments that have been con- ducted in Sumter county for the last four years will be transferred to the local work. This beef feeding work, which Is being carried on in co-opera- tion with the bureau of animal industry at Washington, already has attracted na- tonal attention. Much good has come to the western part of Alabama as a result of the work. The department re- gently shipped 100 head of experimental beef calves to the Cincinnati market: these probably were the best calves that have ever been fed in Alabama. Of fat steers and calves, 13o head, were also recently shipped to New Orleans.
 Good money was made in all of these cattle. which only shows the great or- portunities for the beef business in our state" said Professor Gray today. The beef work is all being done in CO., operation with farmers. The work has continued with O. E. Cobb of Sumter county four years. Further work was undertaken with Mr. Allison, also of Sumter county, last year.
 As soon as other experimental farms can be located additional work will be undertaken. The members of the animal
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-04-12

industry department at Auburn are anx- ious to establish good hog experimental farm, and also a mule raising rarm. r.em- bers of the department have been busy making a preliminary survey of the state. Explaining the work, Professor Gray said
 Tt is work that should be undertaken in every county of the state and the de- partment has received many urgent re- quests from farmers of the state for the work, but owing to the fact that the funds are limited, only few localities can be selected This is not farm demon- Stration work. It is true local experl- mental work the object being to collect accurate information that the demon straton agents can use the accurate in- formation in their work. The agents must be supplied with accurate informa- ton, such as the work will collect, be- fore they are in position to teach the farmers"
