COOPERATIVE METHODS IN

Associations Formed by Southern
Farm Women Aids in Profitable
Selling Of Eggs, Etc.

Farm women In a number of south
ern communities are being encouraged
by the demonstration agents to form
cooperative egg-selling associations,
the object Of which is to secure better
prices for poultry products. The men,
berS of these associations send all their
eggs freshly gathered to one member.
who tests and grades them carefully,
packs them attractively, and sees to
their shipment and sale. The product
of the group is sold comparatively. the
members paying their proportion of the
cost of handling and sharing in tho
profits. The agents representing the
department and the state college help
these groups by giving their members
instructions in shipping by parcel post
and express, in grading and testing
eggs and in choice of containers. In
several of these groups the members
have come to appreciate the value of n
standardized product and. therefore.
have agreed to raise the same breed OF
chickens and thus produce the same
grade of eggs.

where there are fifty cooperative egg
selling associations and two junior
poultry clubs. is typical of the work

The beginner with poultry should
start with pure-bred stock. The initial
expense will be a little more than for
mongrels, but it will cost no more to
raise them, the returns will be larger
and the satisfaction greater. After
January it is not economical to pur-
chase fowls, as breeders will have their
pens mated for the season and will not
take out good birds unless they can Sc
cure a high price for them. In the
spring the start Is best made with
eggs or baby chicks. If eggs are the
choice purchase one or more sittings
and as many broody hens; the latter
can be secured of farmers or poultry
keepers, who are usually glad to get
rid of them at small advance over
the price of market poultry. They need
not be of pure blood, but should be OF
fair size, so as to take good care OF
the eggs
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-03-05
Care of Sitting Hens.

When the broody hens arrive, have
warm nests made In rather deep boxes.
Fill the boxes part full of earth or
sifted coal ashes and after following
out the nest cover it with plenty OF
short straw, hay or other nesting ma
terial. A convenient arrangement for
sitting hens is a brood coop with wire
covered yard, such as are sold by
poultry supply dealers. The nest is
made in the coop part and feed, water
and dust bath are in the yard. Put
the hens on the nests at night, and as
soon as they have settled down to the
business of sitting, order the eggs
After they have learned to come of
and go on the nests they will require
no further attention save to see that
they are supplied with feed and water
When the hatch comes off, the nest
can be removed and the coop carried
out on the lawn where the hen and
chicks are allowed to occupy 1t.
Some prefer the incubator to hens
even for Matching comparatively
small number of chicks. A small tncu-
ba tor is not expensive, and eggs from
pure bred fowls can often be secured
of neighbors at nominal cost or at
a slight advance over the price OF
market eggs.
Still another way is to buy baby BY

The chicks muse be kept warm, and
for this a brooder is necessary. There
are a great many kinds of brooders
suited to every purpose. from the col
ony or outdoor brooder, helpful where
one wishes to raise less than 100 chicks
and has no suitable place in which to
operate other types, to the portable or

novice, if he has a building in which
to operate them. These hovers viii

If you want the pullets to lay next
winter, when eggs are high, they should
be Matched early. 1t takes from six to
eight months to grow pullets to laying
maturity, and it is desirable to have
them commence to lay in October
Early April is probably the best time
to have chicks come.

poultrymen adhere strictly to the fol-

and eggs:
l. Keep the nests clean; provide one
nest for every four hens.
9 Gather the eggs twice daily
3. Keep the eggs in cool, dry room
or cellar.
4. Market the eggs at least twice a
week.
s. Sell kill or confine all male birds

Dusk was almost upon them
when Annette sprang to her feet.
The still magic was broken. They
raced each other down, laughing;
they lost their footing and fell knee

them. When they got to the picnic
