A Weekly Page of Poultry Hints to You

The object at this season is to re-
duce the flocks to profitable basis, as
it does not pay to winter useless birds
Sell them now.
The hens that moult early will be the
best winter layers, and their feed
should be of that kind which makes
good the loss they sustain in losing
their feathers.
Summer days are anxious days to
the alert poultry breeder. Now if at
any time he must be wide awake and
on the lookout daily to see that every
thing is provided for the comfort and
well being of his flock.
Should you feed cabbage stumps, let
tuce or other vegetable matter be sure
to remove what is left over before 1t
begans to decay, which happens quickly
in the hot weather. Decayed vegetable
matter is no better for chickens than it
is for men.
Keep an eye on the chickens with the
matter of culling next month in mind.
Birds that are getting old or show
lack of vitality should be fattened up
preparatory to being sold or furnishing
tempting addition to Sunday din
ner.
The best way to get line on what
your birds are worth is to enter some
of the best ones at the local, county
and larger poultry shows. If they
are prize winners your flock increases
greatly in selling value and if they
are not winners you can see where
they are deficient. The education is
worth the expenses of showing, even
if you do not win. y

See that the incubator is running
steadily at the desired temperature be-
fore filling with eggs. Do not add fresh
eggs to a. tray containing eggs which
are undergoing incubation.
Turn the eggs twice daily after the
second and until the nineteenth day.
Cool the eggs once daily, according to
the weather, from the seventh to the
nineteenth day.
Turn the eggs before caring for the
lamps.
Attend to the machine carefully at
regular hours.
Keep the lamp and wick clean.
Test the eggs on the seventh and
fourteenth days
Do not open the machine after the
eighteenth day until the chickens are
hatched.

Poultry Hints

REQUENT changes of litter and
II nest pox material are called for
these August days. Burn the old
material as soon as possible Lice mul-
tiply at an alarming rate and dirt and
filth double their harmfulness under the
influence of summer heat Now is the
time to begin to think of the moulting
season and prepare for it. Study the
subject carefully as it has an important
bearing on winter egg production. Win
ter eggs are eggs of gold nowadays.
Fine feathers count for great deal
in winning prizes at poultry shows.
Commence to gather dry road dust
and put away in barrels in a dry place
for next winter s use.
Don t crowd the hens in warm wea-
ther, for it makes them quarrelsome
and leads to feather pulling.
Plan now to provide comfortable
quarters for the poultry during the
winter when the price of eggs is high
est.
Those hens that moult early in the
season and get well feathered out by
October or November can be counted
as winter layers.
Fresh, clean water is particularly
important during hot weather and
fresh supply should be given at least
three times day.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1914-08-20
Composition of Egg.

More than three fourths of an egg
is water, so you can see how necessary
it is that the fowls should be kept sup
piled with an abundance of water. 1t
should be pure, and be given to them
in some way they cannot get it foul.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1914-08-20
Treat the Ducks Well.

A Pekin duck responds readily to
good treatment. They appreciate plenty
Of food and comfortable quarters, but
they should not be fed or housed with
chickens, nor, in fact, with any other
fowls, for they are very timid creatures
and should be kept as quiet as possible,
