MARGIN OF PROFIT AND LOSS.
Keep Record of Your Flocks to Get
Best Results.

a flock OF hens should me made to
pay good dividend on the invest
ment. If they do not do this, there is
something radically wrong somewhere
along the line.
If you have kept a record of the
cost of production and sales you will
be able to tell whether or not your
hens are paying. Hens that are laying
an average of so to % per cent are
doing well, and will make a good
showing in the right side of the casa
book An average above that will
be SO much more gain, and will more
than Justify keeping the birds.
If they fall way below this mark you
had better investigate and find out the
cause of the trouble 1t may be that
you have poor strain of birds; that
YOU are not feeding the right kind OF
food or in sufficient quantities, or that
YOU are not giving them the proper at
tention that they must have in order
to be great producers,

SOME POULTRY CONCLUSIONS.
Expert of Missouri Station Gives Out
Few Practical Suggestions.

Under the heading OF Lessons
Learned Mr.. Quisenberry. OF the
Missouri experiment station, has
issued the following notes for poultry
raisers. based on the years work in
the egg laying contest at that station:
That there Is no variety OF breed
which far excels others in general use
as Tar as egg production Is concerned
That some hens have a born ten
dcncy to lay, and others have a born
tendency 10 put on fat The latter kind
should be cullcd out in establishing a
laying strain.
That little moistencd feed is rel
ished and will increase egg produc-
uon.
That many high producers lay thin
shelled eggs. and that the germs are
often weak a few high producers are
able 10 lay large numbers OF egs. fer
tilize them and put vitality into the
chick
That the Mediterranean class can
stand more protein and fattening food
than the birds OF the American. Asia
tic or English classes. There is not so
much danger of the NJ editerraneans
becoming too tat, and they require a
richer food than the other classes
mentioned
That the purpose of properly feed
ing and housing a hen is not to feed
eggs into her body but to so feed and
care tor her that you may get out OF
her the eggs which breeding has
placed there. Proper feeding, housing
and care have a bearing on the mum
Der OF eggs produced by flock, but
breeding is most important
That the best producers have broad
bodies. The back is broad. and the
ribs are widespread, giving plenty of
room for eggs and digestive organs.
That good layers are big caters A
bird must have capacity to eat and di-
gest a big amount OF food if she is to
lay well.
That most of the high producers
have good sized combs for their breed

WHY is POULTRY VALUABLE?
Eight Excellent Reasons Given to This
FertInenr Question.

Why is poultry valuable to the far
mer. Is question asked by hundreds
OF Ulcers OF the soil who usually keep
but lew chickens, and these mix
ture OF all breeds. The following rea-
nent question:
l. because he ought, by their
means convert great deal of the
waste on his farm into money i'll the
shape OF eggs and chickens tor mar
ket.
Z. Because, with intelligent man
agement they ought to be all-year rev.
fnuc producers, with the exception OF
possibly two months during the
noulting season.
3. Because the poultry will yield
him a quicker return for the capital
invested than any of the other depart
ments of agriculture.
4. Because the manure of the poul
try house will make a valuable com
posiite for use in either vegetable gar
den or orchard. The birds themselves
if allowed, will destroy all injurious in
sect life.
5. Because. while cereals and fruits
can only be successfully grown in Ger
tain sections, poultry can be raised
for table use or layers OF eggs in any
and every part OF the country, and at
all seasons.
6. Because poultry raising is an
employment in which the farmers
wife can engage and leave him free
TO attend to other departments of farm
work
7. Because it will bring the best re-
suits in the shape of ncw-laid eggs
during the winter. season. when the
farmer has the most time on his
hands
3. Because to start poultry on the
farm requires very little capital.-Prof.

MUCH BENEFIT BY SPRAYING,
Reason Why Lime Sulphur is Best So
luton to Use on Apple Trees.

The growing OF apples is an enor-
nous industry which Is constantly ex-
panding. This is due largely to the
fact that OF all fruit the apple is in
most steady demand, and is very re
liable crop. The prolts on a well
conducted apple ranch or orchard are
fairly large, the labor entailed in car
ing for the trees and marketing the
crop is not excessive, and there is
scarcely any seWion of the country in
which some varieties of apples will
not thrive.
Spraying is the one operation above
every other which determines the
market value of apples, and yet in
many instances it receives the least
attention of all the orchard work. ac-
cortling to Farm and Home expert
The matter OF spraying is one which
must be given careful attention and
study by each grower. for. the reason
that the practice giving the very best
results in one section may be of in
different value in another.
For instance. the Ben Davis is so
seriously. russcted by application of
bordeaux mixture that. as a rule. nat
urally fine fruit of this variety will be
rendered second class if this spray is
used.
Lime sulphur solution is apparently
as effective as bordeaux mixture III
the control of apple scab. and will
control leaf spot and other minor trou-
bles. In sections where spraying for
bitter rot is required the lime sulphur
treatment for scab and leaf spot
could be followed by applications OF
bordeaux mixture for bitter rot and
apple blotch, as il has not vet been
determined that the lime sulphur spray
will control these diseases. Arsenate
OF lead is PROFESSIONALLY the poison to
use with the lime sulphur mixtures.

Effective Mulch for Corn.

The most effective mulch Tor corn
III a dry season Is one about three
inches deep. made by a small shov
eled, shallow pillow, running implement
that will leave the ground practically
level
\ spring tooth cultivator with six or
eight shovels on each gang is one OF
the best implements for dry weather
or a one-horse garden pillow after the
corn is too large to work with the or
binary cultivator. If other implements
are used. they should be run shallow
SO as not to disturb the corn roots at
a time when they are so badly needed
These small-toothed implements
lave loose, dry layer of soil on top
for a mulch. which acts like blanket
thrown over the ground and keeps the
water from being lost by evaporation

GRASS FOR SEMI-ARID WEST.
Under Dry Conditions Sudan Variety
Has Succeeded Admirably.

Hay and forage production has been
greatly increased by the importation
and adaptation OF several plants, the
cultivation OF which has been expert
mented with and fostered by the Uni
ted States department of agriculture
through its bureau of plant industry
until their suitability and reliability
for the desired purpose have been
fully demonstrated and the desired
purpose have been fully demonstrated
and their cultivation established
Two of these are treated in two
pamphlets, entitled Sudan Grass, a
New Drought RI sistant Hay Plant -"
Oh. p. |. Circular 1850, and 'Vetch
Growing in the South Atlantic States"
tFarmers' Bulletin 500
In the semi-arid west, where no per
ennial grass has thus far been found
suited to the conditions, Sudan grass
promises high value for hay Indeed
1t Is not too much to predict that there
ii is destined to become the leading
grass for hay production. Under more
humid conditions ii has also succeed
ed admirably. and will probably re
place fox-tail millets to a large extent.
as it produces better hay and usually
larger yields
There is still much to learn in re
gard to the crop, but it has been test
ed most carefully in Texas. as well as
at Arlington Farm, Va. and has had
at least a years trial at many places
on the great plains and at various ag-
ricultural experiment stations, and the
data at hand indicates approximately
the best methods of culture.
Under light rainfall conditions. it is
probably best 10 SOW Sudan grass in
rows. vet excellent results have been
secured in dry regions from broadcast

does not become too coarse for palata-
bic way. Although very similar in APP
pearance to Johnson grass. ii is con

Head Louise in Chicks.

The head louise attacks young
chicks generally before they are feath-
cred out. and is first found on the
head with its claws or feeders sunk
into the skin OF the head. As they
become more numerous. they attack
the throat and neck as well. The
remedy is simple, but it takes little
time. Each chick must have its head
creased with lard, cottonseed oil or
olive oil You will have to look close
w TO see these insects, They are vry
destructive to chickens and must be
controlled or extermnated if the chick
is to he healthy.

CARING FOR MOULTING HENS.
To Hurry Fowls Along They Must be
Fed Literally.

Some people make a dreadful fuss
about the poor moulting hen. while
this moulting process is just as nat
ural as il is for hen to live and
breathe and no more critical than the
laying stunt, provided the hens are fed
enough to keep up the waste OF the
body and at the same time manufac-
turc the new feathers. says the Field
and Farm The sooner the feathers
are grow the sooner the eggs will
come and to hurry the malong as fast
as possible the fowls should be fed
literally. Give them all the mash they
will eat and good feeding OF grain at
night.
To many folks il looks like throw
ing away money TO practice heavy
feeding while no eggs are coming IN.
bur this is one OF the secrets OF get
ting winter eggs. The moulting sea-
son is the most critical period in the
life of hen Growth OF new feathers
is heavy drain on the Vitality. As the
hen is fed on the average ranch ii
requires from two to- four months to
recover from the effects OF il.
By giving the necessary materials
with which to make the feathers so
that a hen will nto have to take them
from the tissues OF her body, she will
be ready to work as soon as she has
her new plumage and often before.
Pullets should be handled in the same
way. They are not fully developed
and will not begin to lay until the
amount OF food they consume is
enough to support growth with SUR
plus to go into something else.
