SMALL VS.. LARGE
CHICKEN FL0CKS
Amateur Should Start With Few
Birds and Gradually Work
Up to Full Capacity.

II seems to be the ambition OF the
average amateur to Immediately get
on top OF the heap. He sees no rea-
son why he cannot at once establish
good income from poultry farming.
and the way he figures out results is
really remarkable.
Do not his figures show that as he
made SO much profit on so hens. he
can make ten times greater on 500?
He forgets that in the care of so
fowls he has plenty OF time to supply
all their wants. and that they re-
ceived greater variety of food than
would be possible to give a flock ten
times larger. The table scraps alone
in the feeding OF so fowls is an item
which cannot be overlooked and which
in all probability contributed more to
the results than anything else.
In small flock an ailing fowl is
more readily noticed than 1t Is In
a large flock, for the reason that the
keeper has more time to carefully In
spect. In a flock of 500 the attend.
ant must hurry up his work OF feeding
and watering and cleaning up. and he
at times only mechanically glances at
the birds.
Large fiocks necessitate the employ
ment of extra labor and the hired
man" question is a serious one on the
poultry farm. II is difficult to secure
man who will take the same interest
in the fiocks that you will. He is
working more for wages than he is for
the success OF the plant.
The moral is this: Begin small
grow gradually and stop growing
when your capacity is reached II
hired help must be employed assign
some particular work to help. but let
the real personal management be in
your own hands. 1t is the only way
to make a large poultry farm pay.

IMPROVEMENT OF
ALL LIVE STOCK
Good Ram on Bunch of Grade
Ewes Is in Many Cases More
Than Halt of Flock.

CBy HOWARD HAcKEDOM. Missouri
5tarion)
The use of a good sire is one of the
recognized principles OF improving the
live stock. This principle is generally
considered to be fundamental by all
breeders of live stock, both breeders
OF pure bred stock and breeders OF
animals for the open market. How
ever, some breeders through neglect.
or lack of knowledge and interest
in the improved types. use sires which
retard the general quality of their
focks and herds. rather than ad-
vance 1t.
Judging from the quality of native
lambs on the various Missouri mar
kets, lamb producers of this state are
realizing more fully each year the
economy of investing in good sires.
A good strong yearling ram should
be able to serve SO ewes. good
ram when used on block of grade
ewes is in many cases more than half
the flock, because he will usually have
greater ability to stamp his charac-
ter on the offspring than have the
ewes. So with small flock of grade
ewes. worth from "a to $40 per head.
one can afford to purchase a good
mutton ram. AS the value of the eve
flock increases one can AFFORD higher
class ram.

Lambs should have their tails cut

Lambs just under ten months old

The best time to have lambs to

No every man can have pure bred

ESSENTIAL POINTS
IN CARE OF MILK
System of Safeguards Should Be
Observed in Dairy House and
While in Transit.

Milk is kept wholesome after leav-
ing the COWS by a system of safe
guards observed during milking in the
dairyhouse and while the milk Is In
transit from the farm to the consum'
er.
The precautions observed during
the milking are sterilized white duck
suits for the mixers. careful washing
of hands after each COW Is MIXED,
milking through a sieve into the pail,
and straining the milk when 1t Is
poured from the pail into the can.
The foremilk, as the first milk that
is drawn is called. is also discarded.
thus preventing any bacteria which
may have found their way into this
part of the milk from getting into the
milk that is kept.
All the milk is exposed to the barn
air but very few minutes and is
taken into the dairy just as soon as
the cans are filled.
The range of yield per pound Of
milk is very wide. 1t taking from
eight tos ten pounds OF the richest milk
up to 80 and over of the poorest to
make pound of butter. The average
of common stock In the country is
about 25 pounds. Anything between
that and 20 pounds OF milk for a
pound of butter is good. Below this
is very good. and extra down to eight
and ten pounds is extraordinary. AT
ten pounds to the imperial gallon,
eight quarts would be 20 pounds OF
milk

About two years ago my baby. who

The eczema broke out In rash at

much that he could not sleep well.

head as the eczema w1s on the back
Of his neck where he gould not get to
It to scratch well. But In rubbing so
much 1t became red and almost raw.
It seemed very painful as the child
lretted constantly. After some time a
similar trouble appeared on the
cheeks.
