THINGS SUCCESSFUL.
POULTRYMEN DO

Begin With Gooo Stock.-Hayins
studied the conditions which deter
mine the selection of the breed-as
market demands, climate, etc., and de
cided whether he is to produce fol
eggs or meat, the poultryman secures
good foundation stock of some pure
bred variety. He then strives to ever
improve the standard of his flock.
Feed Balanced Rations.-No longer
does the intelligent poultryman think
that wheat or corn the year around is
satisfactory or profitable menu for
his birds. He knows that to be at her
best the hen must have a variety of
feeds. He aims to turn farm wastes
into poultry profits and no meat scrap
or skim milk is thrown away.
Eliminate IdIers.-In the flock of
the progressive poultryman every hen
is paying her board. The unproduct-
i've birds have been culled out and
consigned to the stew kettle or the
butcher shop. Only the hard-working,
steady layers remain.
Fight FiIth.-Dirt and filth spell
failure in poultry raising and the wide
awake breeder is continually on the
lookout to see that the house, yards,
incubators, brooders and birds are
clean. Whitewash and insect sprays
are cheaper than diseased birds.
Provide Comfortable Houses.-To
keep healthy and productive, chickens
must have plenty of room When in
side each bird should have at least
four square feet of Aoor space. Plenty
of sunlight and pure air are also es-
sential. In hot weather some ar
rangement to give the pens shade
should be made.
Exterminate Parasites.-In proper
ton as the lice and mites increase in
number the egg basket dwindles in
size. Businesslike poultry raisers
hold regular cleanup" days, when
every bit of equipment in the plant is
given thorough cleaning and disin-
fecting. The birds, too, are treated
for lice at the same time.
Value the Winter Egg.-Extra feed
and plenty of exercise are necessary
to the production of winter eggs and
these the wise poultry keeper will pro-
vide, for he knows the high price of
his product during the cold months
will more than repay the additional
labor and expense. Warm mashes and
steamed clover are fed literally.
Use Common Sense.-Many a sue
cess in the poultry business may be
traced to the exercise Of care and COM
mon sense, for these are just as i'm
portant in raising chickens as in han
ding any other class of livestock.
