8ROILERs FOR MARKET

ready for market in order to get the
highest prices. Broilers are young
chickens weighing from three-quar-
tersto two pounds, the latter weight
being the most common size. The
production of broilers as a special
business has been tried without sue
ces son many poultry farms in the
northeastern party of this country.
Brothers, however, are raised success
fully and at good profit both on
poultry farms andalso where only a
few fowls are kept, the broilers be-
ing the cockerels which are d by
product in the raising of pllets for
egg production.
The general purpose breeds CT
fowls, such as the Plymouth Rocks,
Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds and
Orpingtons, produce chickens making
The best broilers. These chickens
should weigh from 2 to 1-2 pounds
dive weight at IL to 13 weeks of
age. The Leghorns are not so well
adapted for broilers, as their chick
ems are smaller, but they make fair
broilers, weighing from to pounds
All Leghorn cockerels, except those
saved for breeding stock, should be
sold as broilers, as they are not well
adapted for market after passing be-
yond this size. White chickens make
the most attractive and easily dress
ed broilers, as their pin feathers are
not SO apparent when the chickens
are prepared for market. Chickens
of the general purpose breeds make
good market poultry after they pass
the broiler size, but many of these,
especially those Matched early, are
marketed to best advantage as broil-
ers, both on account of the high price
paid for broilers, and because by
selling the cockerels at this age the
pullets are usually given better
chance to develop.
The cockerels should be separated
from the pullets as soon as the sex
can be readily distinguished, the
most promising chickens being saved
for breeding stock. The sex is us
ually told by the development of the
head points, tail, and general male
characteristics of the cockerels, and
this requires some skill and practice.
The chickens selected as broilers may
be forced more rapidly than those
saved for breeding stock. Quick
growth can be produced by dividing
them into flocks Of so or less and
combining them to small pens for IA
to IS days before they are marketed.
Feed in the morning and at noon
wet mash of pounds corn meal, 4
pounds low grade wheat flour, and
? pounds bran or middlings, mixed
with skim milk or buttermilk to the
milk is available, add 1 pound of beef
consistencyof oatmeal porridge. If no
scrap to the mash, and give some
green feed daily, using only enough
water to make a crumbly mash. In
addition to either of these mash
feeds, give all the cracked corn which
the chickens will eat, foo the evening
feed. 7eI*i@s Ns |
Higher prices are paid for the early
broilers, those Matched in March and
April, than for those Matched in the
late spring and early summer. Pullets
Matched early also make the best fall
and winter layers and are the most
profitable to raise. Broilers are mar
keted both alive and dressed. Con-
siderable care should be used in both
and shipping broilers so that
they will reach the market in a neat
attractive condition.

CHRISTMAS TREE
FOR BIRDS IS
PROPOSED
To Children of America by Ma
tlonal Association of Au-
dub0n Societies.

NEW YORK. Dec. ia Christmas
tree for the birds is proposed to tho
children Of America by the National
Association Of Audubon Societies. at
1874 Broadway, this city. T. Gilbert
PEARSON, secretary, who is back Of the
idea. says the society hopes the holt
day spirit Will result in special eff
fort to attract song birds about Amer
lean homes and to keep the birds from
starving. American children. he de-
clares, have opportunity to save the
lives OF thousands of song birds this
winter.
Birds forage bravely for them
selves during the temperate seasons"
says Mr.. Pearson, but in severe and
Ice bound weather they fall in great
numbers from weakness brought about
by hunger. Another cause Of great
fatality among birds is that snow
crust forms over them when they fur
row to find shelter from the biting
wind and they cannot break out
again.
1.-THE birds Christmas tree need not
DO OF the regular variety. Any kind
OF branch which can be attached out
side window and to which food can
fastened will serve to attract the
feathered songsters who will continue
the singing Of Christmas carols
throughout the winter in exchange for
a few cents worth Of suet."
Suet, obtained at any meat shop, is
said to be the best food to place on
the tree. for while 1t provides the
birds with the heat and energy they
need, they are still obliged to hunt
constantly for insect food to secure
their daily allowance Of protein or
muscle forming material. In this
quest they cellar tho alternating in
sects and insects eggs from trees and
shrubs. Small pieces of suet should
be wound on the limb or its twigs.
the bird experts say. so that no one
piece is within a foot OF any other. IL
this direction Is observed, they say
there will be little quarreling, sever
nj birds having often been seen feed
ing at once at the same window.
Mr.. Pearson will tell any boy or girl
who writes him how to attract Wis
ter birds about the nome.

the Point, but Recruiting
Officer Thinks Different.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1l.-There are
6.500.000 farmers in the United States
the most OF whom raise something for
market. They have been described by
DIR. 7. n. Carver. the Harvard Univer-
sity expert In economies who was en-
gagged last year by the department OF
agriculture to draw plans for the or
ganization of rural community. rs

therefore. difficult TO organize" That
they are difficult TO organize" is evil

all out little more than 100000 was
the result of increases Of postal sal
aries and additional railway mail pay
required by law.
Hallway Mail Pay.
| Chief among recommendations 10
Congress are renewal Of previous
proposals for change from the
weight to the space basis OF fixing
pay to the railroads for carrying mail /;
renewal of recommendations for
government ownership OF telegraphs
and telephones; removal Of the four
pound limit on first class mail: and
the adoption of more liberal limita-
lions on the weight and insurance
OF parcel post packages.
Inc greatest expansion in the post
Office. the report shows. was in the
parcel post. Statistics gathered from
nifty principal postofiices show it to be
half of all the postal business, and
that more than billion parcels are
being transported every year. Before
The parcel post was established not
more than one-fourth that number
were handled. The amount of post
age collected from that source an
preached 100000 during tho first
fifteen days of October this year alone,
While the war has crippled the
money order system 1t has doomed the
postal savings banks. The number Of
depositors and the amount deposited
exceeded any year since the banks
we're established. More than a half
million depositors were on the books
at the end Of June 1915, a gain Of
thirty-fve per cent for the year and
they had on deposit nearly S66. O0O. 900,
gain OF more than fifty per cent.
The increase In deposits in some cities
was remarkable. They increased in
New York 1879 per cent; Bridgeport,
Conn.,. 1873 per cent; Brooklyn 1877 per
cent; Patterson 1862 per cent; Jersey
City. 122 per cent; Detroit, 112 per
cent. Other cities showed gains rang
ing from fifty to 100 per cent. OF
all the depositors more than fifty
eight per cent were foreign born and
they had more than seventy-one per
cent OF the total deposits The figures
are represented as showing plainl,
the attraction of the postal banks to
the immigrant.
Lotteries Barred.
The activities of the postoiIice de-
partment in supprcssing fraudulent
use OF the mails are undated. The
report says the department is work.
ing in close cooperation with those
interested in purifying advertising COL
umns and that during the year fifty

which is one OF spirited controversy
between the postoffice department and
the railways. the postmaster generals
report treats at length. II describes
the situation as acute and urgent,
pressing for immediate adjustment,
but expresses regret that the railway
