casion.

eminent agents boldly declare in their
speeches that the rooster is q nuisance
and should be suppressed, generally:
and they submit a vast accumulation
OF testimony in support of their
charges. So convincing is their talk
that the rooster already has become a
hiss and byword on the southern
Kansas division.
Here is the situation. according to
the government experts: Every hen
is good for SO many eggs, from 800 to
500. II my recollection of the figures
Is correct, and she lays her eggs with
out having to ask the advice or con-
sent of any nation on earth. or Of any
rooster. She lays two kinds of eggs
those for Matching and those for eat
ing and cooking purposes, the most
OF her product being for the table.
Fertile for Matching.
THE eggs for Matching. of course,
must be fertile. Those for table use
should be unfertile, for the unfert1le
eggs keep a great deal better than do
the other kind. A fertile egg begins
to spoil in a few hours Seventy-fivc
per cent OF the bad eggs on the mar
ket are fertile. That Is why the sharp
axe Of the United States government.
is aimed at the ROSTERS neck HIS
services are not required. the govern
ment people say, except for a short
period at the beginning of the hatcfi-
ing season.
THE problem is regarded as se1f-
Gus and the campaign for better eggs
doubtless will have the support of ey-
cry egg producer, whose loss on ac-
count OF bad eggs is heavy, and OF es-
cry consumer. who wants the best
eggs he can find for his table"
