WHEN THE FOWLS WON'T LAY
Complaint Is Heard at All Seasons
Of Year-Ample Supply Of Water
Is Essential for Eggs.

Every month or so hear some
chicken grower complaining that his
or her hens won't lay, in spite Of the
fact that they have plenty OF fresh
water and that the ration is so bal
anced that it ought 70 make the hens
lay in spite OF themselves.
This complaint is heard at all sea
sons OF the year and from the farm
hen owner as we'll as the man who is
| trying TO make a success OF CONNER
cial poultry growing 1t is serious,
too: for the steady daily production
OF eggs is the thing that we depend
upon to make hen keeping pay In
some hocks it is a well-nigh chronic
complaint. but the owners seem never
TO be able TO discover just why the
! hens will lay for month or two at
one season and go on strike for the
rest of the year says writer IN Farm
| Progress.
Any one of hundred reasons may
be back OF the failure of the hens to
lay when they should and as they
should. Take the one reason Of old
age. for instance. A lot OF us manage
our birds in such hap-hazard way
that we are never very sure OF just
how old all our hens are.
Some people, too. will feed all man.
ner OF proper foods and feed them
regularly and neglect proper watering.
AS a hen egg is about two-thirds water
Il is very evident that plenty Of water
OF the right kind is one of the mater
ials necessary to produce eggs. Then,
too, we sometimes neglect the ques'
ton OF grit, OF charcoal, OF egg-laying
materials that have TO do with shell
making and bone strengthening.
In one or two cases that ! have no
ticed the cause OF the lack OF egg was
caused by the dampness and clammi
ness of the henhouse. Hens neither
can nor will lay in a house that Is
damp and depressing as cellar
Overcrowding is another reason why
hens fail to lay. II there are moi
enough nesting boxes or II the fiool
space or the roosting places seen
, uvercrowded there will be certain fall
Ing OF in egg production that may b'
very serious. There is, OF course, bu
one way TO remedy this. There mus
be more room provided or the fiocl
will have TO be cut down to fit IL
quarters without being crowded.
Vermin is another reason and bij
one. Lousy hens will not lay. Th
vitality is being sucked out OF then
and the energy that ought to 90 int,
eggmaking is being taken TO nourisl
a few hundred mites per hen. TIL
I irritation that hens suffer when carry
; ing these mites and lice is bad enougl
to keep them from laying even II tn
q parasites we're not drawing out thei
, vitality at the same time.
