the garden, will poke her head into
every mesh of the fence in her efforts
to rejoin her happy companions. The

and 80 cents the third year. All Of
the FIVE hens which produced ZOO
eggs and over laid their first egg in
November, whereas Of the fowls pro-
ducing 100 and under only 81 per
cent. laid their first egg In Nover7r
Der; "A per cent. laid their first
egg in January, and 13 per cent laid
their first egg in February.
One fowl made the best record In
the third year, 13 in the second year,
and the remainder during the first
year. The percentage of shrinkage
proves conclusively that birds of this
age are being maintained at a serious
financial loss.

Of profit as a result Of extra care IN
handling and marketing the eggs now
produced; the extra profit is to be
made by obtaining the top retail
price, and, as consumers become
acquainted with the product, by OBJ
tanning a premium Of from one to five
cents per dozen over the regular price
pair for ordinary eggs.
In order to obtain top prices for
eggs, they must be uniform in size,
uniform in color, and uniform in
quality. The uniformity in color is
not always important and depends on
the market; uniformity in size ex-
cludes small eggs and unusually large
ones as well; while uniformity In
quantity calls for absolutely clean eggs
that have been gathered promptly
after being laid, kept under the best
possible conditions, and marketed not
more than three or four days after
they are laid.

FRESH EGGS IN GOOD DEMAND
Little More Attention to Details VIII
Result In Profit, Repaylns Time
and Labor.

By PROF. A. g. PHILLIPS. Kansas.)
The demand for eggs seems practi-
cally unlimited, more especially for
the better grades. The growth Of the
storage industry has tended to equal
lie prices by increasing the de-
mand In summer when fresh eggs
are plentiful and supplying the def
cheney in winter when fresh eggs are
scarce.
Since the demand is greatest for
the best grades, it seems obvious that
o little more attention to details will
result in a profit amply repaying the
extra time and labor involved.

EARLY M0LTING OF CHICKENS
Western Poultryman Gives Excellent
Method of Controlling Hens h
Changing Feathers.

Most people believe that IL they can
force their hens to- molt early they
will lay more eggs during the season,
but this is not true Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters.
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments, but the facts are
not generally known.
Melting hens require a large amount
of feed containing nitrogen such as oil
meal, meat and other feeds rich in pro-
tein. Melting can be forced by cutting
down the feed Of hens as It has been
shown by experiments that scantily
fed hens begin molting earlier than
those on full feed, but the former do
not finish molting much earlier.
Starved hens molt more uniformly
than others and this Ia particularly
noticeable IN hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station It was
found that on q basis of 100 hens the
fed flock produced eggs to the value
of s29.97 more than by the starved
flock.
The total income from all the birds
was $278 for the starved flock and
$3.50 for the fed flock, difference In
favor Of natural molting for the year
of about $95.
A western poultryman Of long e1-
perience gives his method Of controll-
Ing molting as follows:
AS soon as the hens are through
laying he turns them out on alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran only, in addi.
ton. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration of grains and meat, giving a
light feed IN the morning and all they
will eat at noon and night. Under
this treatment they finish molting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. BY October l
they are all in good laying condition
and make a profit through the fall
and winter. >

Bank Of Trap Nests.

,ect of the poultryman to breed and
build up the strain which lays tho
heaviest, by breeding TO the heavy
producers.
For fanciers, the trap nest is tndis-
pensable on account OF the fact that
In the ordinary pen there are from six
to twelve females to one male. II
trap nests are used, and there are
as many as there are females In the
pen, it is possible to distinguish each
hens eggs, while If the trap nests are
not used, this Is impossible.
The use of trap nests goes far to
prevent the hens forming the habit OF
egg-eating. They are likely to form
this habit If kept in limited quarters.
If 30 kept, they are probably not given
the very best food, and probably not
enough of it, especially animal food.
The accompanying drawings OF a
bank Of trap nests are almost self ex'
planatory. The nests are built with
out any top or bottom. The hen en-
tiers through the back Of the nest,
brushing under the hanging wire,
which releases the door. She then
passes on to the next compartment
toward the front end. To inspect the
nest and to remove the hen, ascertain
her number, and secure the eggs, the
front door Is simply unbuttoned and
let down. It will be noticed that the
two doors are fastened together with

It is not necessary to dwell on the

primary object is to develop heavy
laying strain. 1t has been found by
the use of trap nests that the number
Of eggs laid per hen in an average
fook varies from 40 to 245. Without
using trap nests, the results from
such a flock would be uncertain and
