Efficiency of Monopciies.

ltSelr 10 some OF tneSe ASpeCLS Oh The
situation with curative provisions"
The report goes on:
Efficiency of Monopcifes.
Regardless Of such legislation. how
ever there still remains q fundamental
economic fac. to be determined. to
wit: whether the trust or mJnopoltstic
form Is socially and economically eff
ficient in production, as Is alleged: and
upon the solution of this problem must
depend the ultimate attitude of gov
eminent toward combinations and con-
solicitations in business.
ut is commended by some that with
the increase in the size OF industrial
enterprises there goes a rduction in
the cost OF extraction. manufacture
and distribution, and that such -educ-
ton In cost Is accompanied by lower
prices to the consumer. and does not
involve a reduction in wages, or an
impairment Of the conditions of labor.
Even If these conditions We're true. the
question would still remain. of course,
whether the evil resulting from large
combinations would not be greater
than the alleged advantages Of cheap
er production.
TT is contended. on the other hand,
that the source and origin of monopoly
Is found chiefly in the desire to ex-
plot the general public by stock Job
bling schemes for the immediate profit
Of the promoters, or in the purpose to
attain control of the market and ex-
acting unduly high prices from the
consumer"
Urges Investigation.
The report urges an Investigation by
the bureau OF corporations to throw
light on the question Secretary Red
field advocates an appropriation of
s431.70o for this inquiry into the ef-
hciency of Industrial cornbi cations. He
says:
There Is no criticism here Of big
business. as such. but merely the ques-
ton as to whether big business has not
It's very marked limitations. and
whether there are not cases where
bigness is rather less desirable than
efficiency"
Secretary Redfield declares that Il Ia
important that we should know the
truth about the fixing OF rets ii prices,
and as to whether giving the privilege
of so fixing the prices to a manufactnr-
err tends towards monopoly, or does not
go tend.

All Flock Improvement includes Prop
er Housing and Feeding ano INC Nv
teIIloent Attention Of the owner

While we believe the number Oh
sheen in West Virginia should %
largely increased, It Is perhaps u
greater Importance that the sheep We
have should be improved. It Is posi-
BILE to have a profitable flock without
having a registered one, and 10 Tue
man who already has common VI
mixed flock of breeding ewes, or inc
beginner in sheep husbandry, we MAKE
the following recommendations:
The uniformity of the flock Is OF nrst
Importance. They should be as nearly
alike as possible in type, breed anu
general characteristics. In order 10
secure this result the shepherd snouiu
nrst decide upon the type OF sheep 10
wishes to produce, and we think ina.
experience has shown that Tor most
saotions of this state one OF the down
breeds will best meet the conditions
though Merinos and their grades nave
many friends. Select . pure-oreo
ram of the type desired and always
keep a pure bred sire OF the same
breed ut the head Of tbs flock. Keep
In mind always that 1t IL fatal to uni
formity and improvement to use any
thing but a pure bred sire. While IL
may sometimes seem expensive TO
stick to this rule, 1t is well to keep In
mind that the greatest success is pos
sible by no other, and the uniformity
of the flock will more than make up
the difference In cost.

The shape Of the bird should be Civ.
en- some consideration. but 1t does not
necessarily hold true that those birds
Of ideal shape are good layers, or that
those deficient in good shape are not
good layers. 1t is reasonable to ex-
pect, however, that those with long
necks, small heads, broad long backs,
wide and springy keel bones, are built
with a form and capacity for produc-
ing eggs.
1t is seldom that It pays to keep
hens for laying after they are two and
one-half years old. Not that they will
not give profit, but that younger fowls
will give a greater profit.
Early Matched pullets II properly
grown should begin laying by early
November and continue to lay through
the winter, provided they have proper
housing, feeding, and attention. There
fore the pullets may be depended upon
to pay the fall and winter eggs, while
the price Of eggs ranges high.
Yearling hens seldom begin paying
much before the first of January, and
oder hens not until later, when the
price of eggs has lowered. Therefore
the main reason for keeping hens over
is for breeding purposes. The eggs
from yearling or older hens are larger
and the chicks are larger when hatch
ed and have much more constitutional
vigor than the offspring from pull
lets. The characteristics in year.
ling or older hens are more likely to
be transmitted true to the offspring
than they are from the pullets.
Most farmers or poultrymen are
obliged to retain one-half OF their old
hens each fall in order to have flock
large enough to fill their houses.
Good layers mott late and very
quickly, and commence to lay soon
after they finish Noting. While
poor layers mott early and take
long rest from laying, and do not
commence to lay sooner than those
Noting late, therefore the early mott
ers should be marketed at the first
notice of their molting, while the price
of hens is good.
1t should always be remembered
that 1t is the best layers that turn in
the profit and that poor layer is more
profitable dead than alive.

The best and most uniform eve
lambs should be selected from year to
year to keep up and enlarge the breed
ing flock, and no eve should be kept
until she is more than eight years old,
while every eve that shows inferiority
In wool, form or constitution should be
discarded at any age. With rigorous
selection Of the ewes and a carefully
selected pedigreed sire, In very few
years the flock, for all practical pur-
poses, will be as valuable as If 1t had
been pure bred.
The beginner will do we'll TO go
slow and grow up with the busi-
ness, purchasing few grade ewes and
a registered ram to begin with and en-
large his flock as he enlarges his ex-
perience.
If left to themselves the breeding
season for ewes is from September to
the end of the year, and the Landing
period may be strung out over pc
riod Of three months which is to be
avoided as far as possible. The gesta-
ton period is from 140 to $50 days, or
a few days less than five months. Hav.
ing decided when the lambing period
Is desired, for ten days or two weeks
before the ram is to be turned with
the ewes they should be turned on a
good clover or other nutritious pas,
ture and fed q little grain so that the
ewes will be in q thriving condition.
Where one ram IL to be bred to a large
flock, he should not be permitted to
run with them more than an hour
morning and evening, or the focks
may be divided into small hocks OF
ten or fifteen and turn him IN with q
new flock each day. after which he
may be permitted to run with the
whole flock together.
All flock improvement includes
proper housing and feeding and intel
ligent attention. Expensive buildings
are not necessary, but any buildings
used for sheep must possess the re-
quisites, thorough ventilation and free
dom from drafts. 1t should be per-
fectly dry and well lighted. Sheep can
stand most any degree of cold II kept
dry and sheltered from the wind.
Plenty Of room should be provided at
the feed racks and troughs to avoid
crowding. II the ewes are thin
In flesh in the fall no time should
be lost in putting them In good condi.
ton before winter sets in. II this ID
done little difficulty will be had in car
rying them through the winter on such
feeds as clover or other legume hay,
and little grain. Turnips or other
succulent feeds should be fed in mod.
Grafton, and corn silage Is now being
used by many sheep feeders with good
results. Timothy hay Is poor sheep
feed and mouldy silage should not be
fed. When the roughage is made up
of corn silage, stoyer, timothy or 9th.
er non-leguminous hay, very little corn
should be fed, and wheat, bran, mill
feeds, oil meal, cotton seed meal or
other feeds rich in protein should be
supplied. The three fundamental ele
ments in successful sheep husbandry
are intelligent breeding, careful feed.
Ing, and perfect healthfulness.

HENS THAT LAY
IN THE WINTER
The Laying Qualities of a Hen
Are Very Notice
able
SELECT MATURE PULLETS
The Best Layers Turn In the Fronts
and Poor Layers Are More Profit'
able Dead Than Alive.

The fall is generally the beginning
of the Poultryman's year and before
the approach Of winter he should nave
the breeders selected for the following
season. This flock should consist only
of the best hens and pullets. Strong
Individual vitality is the most impor-
tant factor.
AS the chicks come from the incu-
bator they should be separated into
two lots. Those which hatch hrst
scramble to the front, are the most
lively, and vigorous, and will continue
throughout their lives to be stronger
than those which hatch later. Those
with less vitality should be marketed
for broilers. With this attention, selec'
ton in the fall is greatly simplified.
During the growth Of the flock there
will be a few showing weakness and
disease. A convenient way to mark
these is by punching small hole be-
tween certain toes. II the pullets
are Matched in April or May, they Will
be mature enough by fall to show VIDE
difference from which to choose the
ideal typical laying pullets. Those
maturing early and laying early, pro-
vided they qualify as to their shape
and coloring, should be the nrst
choice.
Those that are off the roosts very
early in the morning, and busy the
entire day in search Of food, are usu'
ally the most apt to lay, both In season
and out Of season. Also the appetite
Of the fowl is very good indication OF
her laying quality. Very desirable
qualities of good layer are bright
full eyes, red combs. and appearing to
be full of business.
