dition so as to command highest prices.
Where this method is pursued the
birds should run on a limited range.
They should receive liberal feeding
until they develop large bodies cap
able of supporting great quantities of
muscle and fat.
1t is wrong to think that all yearling
hens should be discarded, regardless of
their previous performances. This is
common error that has cost many
poultrymen the loss of capital and
years of hard labor. Here, again, the
value of the trap nest is evident.
Females that have proved their worth
as breeders. either in producing show
birds or pullets that were prolific
layers, should be retained until they
are four or five years of age. pro-
viding they maintain their vigor and
vitality. Despite the fact that many
breeders claim that pullets are more
profitable. it has been conclusively
proved that earling,two-year-old and
even three-year-old hens are good
investment.
