The Shut In Flock.

A few days since l called on
friend and was shown his flock OF May
Matched pullets, Matched May 18th
to be exact, some 400 of them and a
bright clean looking bunch they we're.
These fowls have been confined
throughout the past winter; have not
been let out doors even on clear days.
During the first II days OF January
the egg yield was 55 per cent-55 eggs
daily for every hundred pullets.
The house in which these fowls
we're confined was only 45x2O feet,
floor measurement, less than two and
one-haIf square feet of floor space per
fowl. but the roof was high and the
atmosphere of the house untainted.
The t1oor,-i was dirt floor, was
perfectly dry, and the litter though
not deep was clean and dry. The
roosts we're scrupulously clean, they
are cleaned daily and the fowls we're
bright and active and stirring around.
The closed in focks do we'll in COM
petent and energetic hands, there is
no question of it. Not long ago l saw
a California flock of some thousand
bullets which had been kept within
doors throughout its first laying year
and in house of such Dimensions
hat there was less than two square
feet of floor space for each fowl. The
weld of eggs from this flock was con-
siderably larger than that of an equal
number of pullets, of the same age
and strain, kept on the same place
under the usual conditions obtaining
on California poultry ranches. These
fowls were confined nearly year and
during every month their production
was in excess OF that of the fowls Kept
in small roosting houses and allowed
to run outside at will.
The prolonged dry season In Call
fornia is hard on the fowls, which
accounts for the better performance

delight in working and doing,
coupled with the wisdom and ex-
perience of age. To such men this
occupation is pleasure and source
of profit and many find in it the
happiest days their lives have known.

Poultry Raising for Old People.

young men lack the moral fibre to
keep going when working on job for
themselves as they would ii under
the eye of foreman in factory or
a chief clerk in an office.
The owner of a large and prosperous
ranch in this section was strong on
American help when he started in
business few years ago. But though
a pleasant boss and a mighty good
feeder to boot he found it to be a
sheer impossibility to operate his
place with the native sons. The
average duration of a laborer's stay
on the place was less than fortnight,
the work could not be got through
with and, reluctantly enough, he
was obliged to turn to foreign born
labor He now runs the place with a
Scandinavian foreman or general
utility man, who eats up work in
great chunks and can be depended on
to be on the job all day long, and a
force of Japanese laborers who are
also effectively on the job and who,
so far as may be judged by facial ex-
preston and other visible indications,
go just as cheerfully to the work OF
cleaning up cow barns and chicken
roosts as to any other part OF their
daily tasks. Probably our native
born is just little bit too carefully
and tenderly raised. Father works
to pay the bills and mother generally
splits the wood and carries in the
coal. All of which is nice for the
boy but does not conduce to physical
energy or moral fibre and may ex-
plain why he can brace up and work
when one of large crowd, but is in
capable of an honest days work-even
for himself-when working at single
handed tasks.
But to most of US added years brings
the ability to find some pleasure in
even the most disagreeable part of
our work. 1t is indeed a blessing
that there is such a work as poultry
raising ready to the hand of the man
who has lost the vigor of his youth
but retains a fair share of energy and
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-01-15

The writer is honored by the
acquaintance of several elderly gentle
men, veterans of the Civil war, and
all of them on what most of US would
consider the wrong side of three score
and ten, who are quietly making
living by poultry raising and not
doing so badly either. One OF them
keeps a flock of some 500 fowls and
keeps them right up to the handle
too. His houses are cleaned daily,
every house and coop neatly painted,
nothing out of repair and no bad
smells anywhere. And yet he man
ages, besides caring for his fowls, to
raise more fruit and vegetables on
three acres of ground than many
farmers do on five. The largest of
these old veteran focks consists of
eight hundred fowls, and there is not
a more efficient bunch of birds in the
Northwest.
But these old gentlemen are on the
lob all the time and it loo ks as though
an old man with life in him can &C
complish more than a lazy young
fellow who has been mentioned for
the ALI American team. I've about
come to the conclusion that the
younger generation of Americans
had better keep out of the poultry
business and leave it to their sires
and grandsires and to the foreigner
who is not afraid of work. Two
serious defects in Young America s
makeup unfit him for poultry raising.
He is too refined and he is afraid Of
work. A man who hasn't energy
enough to feed his chickens while his
wife is cooking his own breakfast,
will not get very far; and it is a sad
and brutal truth that large part of
the work around a chicken ranch con-
sists of the removal of droppings from
the original place of deposit. While
not, strictly speaking, laborious,
poultry raising is no work for lazy
man. Throughout all the daylight
hours there is something to be done,
and generally something that must be
done. 1t would seem that too many
