Spraying with a 10 per cent. solution
of some reliable dsinfectant is best.
secondly, plenty of moisture during
the progress of the hatch is important
to secure good results, and to obtain
chicks which are large and heavy and
which will live well. The mainte-
nance of the proper temperature, the
operations of turning, cooling, can
ding, etc, must be regularly and sys-
tematically attended to.
When the chicks are counted for
Shipment, only normal, husky, Vigor-
Gus ones should be packed. Weak
chicks will probably die before reach
ing their destination and will cause
dissatisfaction and loss of business. 1t
is well-known fact that only chicks
which are well hatched are worth put
ting in the brooder.
Chicks Must Be Carefully Packed
Next to the production of strong
chicks the success of the day-old chick
trade depends upon having them prop
erly packed and carefully handled in
order to insure their safe arrival.
Chicks are packed when they are
about "a hours old, or after they have
become thoroughly dry. Special boxes
made of corrugated pasteboard are
used, each box being of such a size
that it will hold 100 chicks. The in
terror is divided into four compart-
ments, to prevent injury due to crowd
ing or suffocation.
Baby chicks are usually shipped by
express and should be conspicuouslY
labeled. The route over which they
must travel should be determined in
advance, and they should be billed and
routed and delivered to the express
company at such time that they can
be gotten off with the least possible
delay. The purchaser should be noti-
fed when chicks are shipped and it is
his duty to get them from the rail-
road, and start them in the brooder
as soon as possible.
While in route the conditions should
be as uniform as possible. Losses dur
inT the early Spring may come from
the packages being left for a long
time on trucks at station platforms,
where they will become chilled. Again
they may be placed near a bank of
steam pipes where they will become
very much overheated.
The express companies have issued
special rules to their agents covering
the handling of such packages, and
any loss due to the failure of the COM
pany to handle package properly can
easily be collected by making claim
for damages in the proper manner.
Future of the Chick Trade
There is every reason to believe that
the baby chick trade has a remark
able future, if the poultryman uses
due care to produce only the best
chicks and to sell only those which
are of such quality that they are sure
to give satisfaction. The vitality of
the chicks after they reach their des-
tination Is the big determining factor
in the future success of the trade
Probably the greatest opportunity is
offered to the commercial poultryman
who has an extensive Matching euuiD-
ment and who can, by advertising,
build up demand for thousands OF
these fluffy youngsters. A nearby
local trade covering a radius of not
over 60 to 100 miles is probably the
most satisfactory. The profit resulting

any rate, they produced a fowl which
was essentially beautiful, slightly
larger than the Penciled Hamburgs,
yet an equally good layer.
These Spangled Hamburgs are of
two varieties, Golden and Silver. Both
have been produced in the same man
ner and have been developed to a dis
unctive type and beauty that is solely
their own. Their plumage rivals the
pheasant in color.
The Golden Spangled Hamburg
would appear to be one of the most
useful breeds. It has been bred for
a long time, and its prolific laying is
unquestioned. But the eggs and the
fowl itself are small, so that for large
utility flocks the Hamburg will not

The Hamburg Is one of our Oldest
standard breeds of poultry. 1t origi-
mated in Holland but takes it's name
from the city of Hamburg. The pen
ciled varieties were the first of these,
and the Spangled, Blacks and Whites
were originated in Great Britain,
where they are extensively bred.
The breed was known as the Dutch
Everyday Layer, because of its heavy
laying propensities, and was greatly
popular among fanciers and small
oreeedrs. Their laying qualities ap-
pear to have made them popular for
two centuries, and they were used in
the making of several of our popular
varieties.
The Spangled Hamburgs were the
product of the British fanciers who
crossed the original Dutch everyday
layer, which was of the Penciled va
riety, with some of the British fowl
