Economy and saving are un-

They have built fortunes and
brought comfort and compe-
fence to many people. How.
ever. there are places and times
when saving is losing. Saving
the cost OF fertilizeS or lime
may mean the losing of in.
creased production. Saving the
price OF spray materials may
mean the loss of valuable fruit

Saving time by not testing the

One OF the most important things In
keeping fowls either for pleasure or
profit. is the ability to hatch chickens
that are strong and vigorous, for. I'm.
less the little chicks are robust and
hearty. neither pleasure nor profit can
be obtained from them.
Eggs for Matching should be select.
ed early. The reason for this advice
is that eggs early In the spring are
heavier than at any other time OF the
year. Chicks Matched from heavy
eggs are larger and stronger than
chicks Matched from small eggs.
Use Mature Stock for Breeders.
Pullet eggs are considerably small.
er Than eggs laid by old hens, and
chicks Matched from such eggs are
small and weak. Breeding from i'm.
mature stock decreases the ygor and
reduces the size of the offspring. Hens
at least two years old should be used
whenever possible.

laying heavily for IA long time is re

OF the most exhaustive processes OF
