Hen That Can Produce 314
Eggs In a Year Is a Real
Economic Factor.

she has proved her worth. She has
the goods and can deliver them. This
sastonishing performance makes plain
the wealth OF possibilities in every
mans dooryard flock. says writer in
the New York Sun.
n The expert tells us that thero are
moro than 1000 latent eggs In the nor
NAL hen. One individual has shown
that she can lay hundreds of these hid
den. dormant potential possibilities in a
twelvemonth. II one can do II. then
others can. No ono expects 1000 eggs
from any one hen, however long she
may live. But, every one knows now
that he need not go round the world to
find his "Acres of Diamonds" One
American hen has shown us that there
In as great economic value In her as can
be. found. weight. for weight. In any
animal In the world .
What thon? Simply this; II Is up 70
us to make the most of the domestic
fowl. She has the eggs and she Is never
happier than when laying them. Ihe
hen that can lay 200 eggs In year has
become common. Her discovery Is OF
recent date, however. A dozen years
ago there were few, who believed that
such a producer could be bread. Today
the 3O0-egg hen has been discovered IN
various parts of the country The
evidence is so overwhelming that mill
ions of the American people arc chal-
1enged to dig for the diamonds that arc
y hidden away in the common hen. Yes!
The producing power Is In the little hen
mot a shadow of doubt remains. What
are we going to do about it, She Is
able and willing; are We willing and
ffft isn't n matter Of a particular breed.
There are a dozen breeds of fowls that
can be depended upon for the high eco
nomic values II rightly handled. The
egg laying contests In various parts OF
America as well as In Australia prove
that most of the common breeds of
fowls have marvellous possibilities in
egg production when handled rightly.
While the heavier breeds may be slight
~ inferior to some of the smaller breeds
in average egg, production, thSy have
points of superiority in other respects
that make them of equal value. The
man behind the bird is the determining
factor.
Lady Eglantine with her S14 egg rec
ORD has set the whole continent in
search OF poultry possibilities. Practi-
cally everybody outside the large cities
keeps fowls. This amazing years work
OF one hen has been hcralded from
ocean to ocean. II Will mean a power
widespread to make the most of the
utility value of the backyard flock as
we'll as of the tens of thousands of
birds herded together on the million egg
farm.
The average yearly yield of the farm
fiock is about seventy eggs for each
hen. This Is the finding of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. We write II and
read II with shame! II Is surely long.
Along way from 70 to 31i! The world is
on fire today over economic efficiency.
Most certainly the figures that are be-
fore the American people today will
mean a mighty stride forward in egg
'production. Otherwise we prove our
economic deficiency.
