TO TEACH POULTRY RAISING
AT NJ. u. SUMMER SESSION

The man who wishes to know how
to raise chickens or desires to equip
himself so as to teach others how to
raise chickens will have an opportuni-
ty at the University of Missouri, from
June to August 4. For the first time
during the regular Summer session
there is being offered complete
course in poultry keeping.
All the details of practical poultry
raising necessary for success in the
management of poultry farm or a
farm poultry flock are included: the
houses, fixtures, appliances, eggs and
poultry for market, judging chickens
and how to mate and breed them,
feeds, feed mixtures and how to use
them, Matching with hens and incu-
bators, raising by natural and artiti-
cial methods, diseases, etc.
There will be two lectures daily in
addition to labratory work which
drives home the practical application
of the principles. ]. D. Elliff, direc-
tor of the Summer Session, or H. L.
Kempster, professor of poultry hus-
bandry, University of Missouri, Col
umbia, can give full particulars.

corn, wheat, sorghums and other
plants of the grass family. They
may be trapped in dusty bitches if
they go from wheat to corn, or in
rainy weather an oil or tar barrier
may be necessary. If they get to the
corn, spray it with soap suds, emul-
sion or tobacco solutions. The

the "big shed" in housing machinery,
and as result the junk dealer thrives.
w. F. Rankin, president of the corpor-
alton owning the worlds greatest corn
farm, in Atchison county, Missouri,
told me that few machine shelters
could be found on the thousands of
acres controlled by them. The cost
of buildings, additional cost for in
surance, and little incidental expenses
for storing machinery made them de-
eide that sheltering machinery dur
ing the "off" season was Improbable.
"But," added Mr.. Rankin, "you under
stand that probably a machine on our
farms is given ten times more use
than one on the average farm during
a season, and wears out in a compara-
lively short time. Then, too, we man
ufacture our own implements. Pm
quite sure that shelter for machin-
cry on the average Missouri farm
would prove profitable, as it would
prolong the life on an implement for
many years" And you will find few
men more shrewd than w. F. Rankin.

WHY IMPLEMENTS COST MORE

Farm machinery is higher than ev-
er this spring. This condition was not
wholly unexpected, but farmers were
rather unprepared for the extremely
sharp advance in price for implements
that are necessity on the farm. So
far, though, no thinking person has
accused manufacturers or dealers with
being in a combine, for there's a rea-
son. Never in the history of the world
has there been such demand for
steel and iron, and no matter what the
article may be, abnormal demand
means increased prices. Apparently
the manufacturer and dealer is making
no greater profit, if as much. as he
did before increased selling price was
necessary.
According to Frank Blake of the
John Deere Company, raw material
prices have advanced from 80 to 500
per cent, and the end is not in sight.
And some materials cannot be had
at any price. The 14-inch steel beam
walking plow you have just been US
ing costs almost 35 per cent more to
manufacture than it did few months
ago. When you "straddle" that new
cultivator for the first plowing this
spring you will be handling an imple-
ment that was turned out at an in
creased cost of 26 per cent. So let's
not quarrel with the home dealer; he's
telling the truth when he explains that
goods cost him vastly more. In fact,
it's very possible that his sales are
made at a decreased profit. The re-
taller seldom increases his price cor
respondingly with the advance made
to him. He deals direct and must take
the Observation-Disclosures and jobber
take it out in long-distance conversa-
ton.
Manufacturers tell us that even
greater increase in prices is to come.
Preparedness should be the motto of
every Missouri farmer. On almost
every Missouri farm discarded imple-
ments can be found that if properly
cared for would have given years of
added service. Too many farmers use

BREAKING BROODY HENS

"Swat the Rooster" on May Goth
and sell infertile eggs during the sum-
mer. 1t insures greater profits to
the producer, the dealer can handle
them on smaller margin, and the
consumer gets better eggs to use,
which increases the demand.
The presence of male birds in the
flock does not increase egg produc-
ton, but from two to three per cent
of the females are injured by the
males, which lowers the egg yield
from the entire flock.
Feeding the male birds after the
breeding season is a useless expense
Many produce dealers pay more for
roosters on "Swat the Rooster" day
in order to encourage their sale.
If an egg contains the fertilizing
germ, proper heat is the principal
factor which will cause the germ to
grow. The summer temperature will
cause the germ to develop and if ii
is chilled or killed in any way, it is
the point where decomposition begins
If there is no germ in the egg, there
is no point for decomposition to set
in except from an outside source
Therefore, infertile eggs are more sat-
isfactory for all concerned.
1t should not be understood that in
fertile eggs should be kept longer OF
cared for improperly for that would
mean no improvement over old meth
DDS. Infertile eggs should be market
ed just as often and cared for just as
carefully as fertile eggs, which will
insure an improved product for the
market.
All eggs should be sold on the
Ioss-off basis; i. e., all eggs should be
candled and only the good eggs paid
for 1t will be seen that ten dozen
infertile eggs, all good, will bring
more money than twelve dozen fer
tile eggs if three dozen are candled
out, being bad.
If you have a valuable male bird
which has proven to be a good breed
er, don't sell him, but place him in a
pen with half dozen of the best hens
and late Matching may be done from
this pen.
Don't keep any males in the flock
during the summer.
Hens should not be permitted to re-
main broody any length of time un-
less they are permitted to incubate
some eggs. The longer a hen is per-
mitted to sit, the longer it will take
her to begin laying again after be-
ing in broody condition. A good
sized coop for breaking hens, is il
lustrated in our "Swat the Rooster
bulletin, which is free to residents Of
the State who ask Off it. In writing
for bulletins or information, be sure
to sign name and address plainly.
