FARM EXPERT NEEDED IN VALLEY;
MORE COWS AND HOGS NEEDED
Effort to Be Made by Chamber Of Commerce Committee
This Year to Secure an Expert on Farming and to
Get Money for Farmers to Buy Cows and
Hogs; Farmers to Be Organized

~EORGE R. Lebaron. chairman Of
the chamber Of commerce COM
~ mittee on agriculture and irri-
gated lands, plans a large work for
himself and committee during the pres
ent year. One Of the big efforts OF the
committee will be to secure cows for
those farmers of the valley who will
make use of them. Another object OF
the committee is to bring in hogs.
The construction of silos for cattle
feeding is to be another object of the
committee. With these ends in view,
arrangements are being made TO secure
money to loan deserving farmers who
wish to purshase cattle and swine
Such arrangements are so well under
way that success is assured.
Mr.. LeBarOn, the members of his
committee, and others interested in
the development of the agricultural
possibilities of the valleys, above and
below El PasO, and this includes not
only real estate men but many farm
ers, long ago arrived at the cOnclu-
sion that every farmer who is permit
ted to fail is a potential "lkuocker" OF
the valleys and that the best in
terests of all lies in the direction OF
finding ways and means of preventing
such failures.

cry few. poultry breeders, aside
" from those who make a special
business of breeding poultry,
give any attention to the important
matter of breeding for fertility. IN
fact there are very few who know
anything relative to the subject There
are only a few books that teach on
this point and those only in a limited
way However, experiments have been
made by different experiment stations
throughout the country and these
prove conclusively that feeding has q
very decided influence on the fertility
OF eggs.
Plenty of Nutriment.
For a breeding hen, the feed re-
CURED is almost identical with that
of the laying hen, but a few important
factors must be emphasized. The feed
must. contain an abundance Of nuUri-
ments, since any lack of these will de-
crease the egg yield and the chances
o. fertility. 1t may also result in
small size eggs which is an important
and undesirable feature. Protein in
some form, preferably a high grade
meat scraps, which contains 90 percent
to 50 percent protein, has been shown
by experiment to be invaluable for
maintaining high degree of fertility
as well as promoting a good egg yield.
Blood meal, containing IS percent to
80 percent crude protein, is preferred
ny SOIue DItbu6iS as II mas IlOL the ldl-
tening tendencies found in the meat
scraps.
Feed Meat Scraps.
Just preceding the breeding season
it is safe to give as much as 10 to 20
percent meat scrap, or to 10 percent
blood meal in the dry mash; but prev
ious to this time, during heavy winter
production of eggs, forcing by this
method is discouraged as it is apt to
lower the vitality and to cause sterility'
or weak germs later in the season.

Feed Properly For Fertile Egg
Poultry Feeding Plays Important Proper Production Of Eggs
Meat Blood Meal Are Good.
By JOHN I. WILSON.

Green feed is very essential. Expert
ments show that it increases fertility
and birds relish it in large quantities.
Where it has been given to, or with
held from, breeding focks for alternate
periods, the effects have Deen shown
absolutely. This advantage is approx
imately to u percent. However, the
effects of animal feed, (proteln on
breeding hens as compared with veg
etable feed is shown in the following
experiments made by the New York
agricultural station a few years ago
Some Egg Tests.
Of the eggs incubated from hens
fed ratiOns containing a large percent
of animal food, Sc percent were fertile,
10 percent of the fertile eggs had weak
germs and n percent of the tested eggs
Matched strong chicks.
OF the eggs from hens fed ratiOns
containing a large percent of vegetable
food, as percent We-e fertile, 81 per-
cent of the fertile eggs had weak
germs and "a percent of the tested
eggs Matched strong chicks.
No difference in the vigor of chicks
from the two lots while growing was
apparent In summarizing these eXper-
lments the bulletin says: For laying
hens, ratiOns containing animal food
proved superior to others in which all,
or most of the organic matter was
derived from vegetable sources. The
vegetable food ration, supplemented
by bone ash proved equally efficient
for several months but egg production
held up longer with the animal food
ration and the eggs were better for
Matching"
Don't Weaken Hens.
There is another point upon which
emphasis should be placed Excessive
production of eggs Weakens the bird
and decreases fertility. Forcing can be
carried on for a few months in the
year-In WInter-but the birds should
