POULTRY
CONSULTING DEPARTMENT

Management of BOOSTERS and Culls
If we want to be sure our poultry
pays us we want to make every point
count. From the time the chicks are
Matched we want TO push them for
ward as fast as possible and yet avoid
undue forcing. A rapid healthy
growth is necessary TO quick matur-
lty, and quick maturity is necessary
if we would reap the dollars. The
quick maturing hen is the one that
pays her way by laying in the winter.
This is not all, though, that we must
consider when pushing the chicks.
The earlier we get the young roost
ers on the market the more we will
get for them as broilers. 1t is more
profitable to sell a two-pound rooster
Tor seventy cents than 1T is to sell
fve-pound rooster for fifty cents. It
is more profitable to feed all you can
coax them to eat for two months and
bring them to two pounds than it is
to take three months and less feed per
month. The difference in price would
probably more than pay for all the
feed it took in either event. Saving
feed with poultry, old or young, is
poor economy.
When to Caponize
| always tried to make the ROSTERS
pay the expense of rearing the pull
lets TO laying age. This often re-
quires pretty close figuring and rapid
development of the young stock UNI
less the whole flock is Matched very
early. 1t is not difficult to do this
with March matches, and April
matches will be all right if everything
moves smoothly, but May matches are
bound to be on the wrong side of the
ledger, unless we caponize them and
thus make them bring in the extra
profits. | would advise caponizing all
cockerels that reach two pounds
when the price is below twenty cents,
or even twenty-five. That is what Z
plan to do this season. Capons sell
well and the market is sure to be
heavier than cockerels of the same
breed and as they bring almost as
much per pound as broilers do after
the first crop or two, and the pounds
can be put on cheaper after the frame
is pretty well developed, it pays best
to keep them. Then we have the adj
