Of poultry for sale at comparatively
low prices. By caponizing them they
will make a profitable growth every
day up to February or March. when
they can be sold at good prices. They
can be profitably carried even month

will reach the markets during the hot
months Of July, August and Septem-
Der. 1t will be too hot to put them in
cold storage at that time. Held as
ROSTERS, they soon become shaggy and
tough and will not be worth much on
the market and must then be sold at q
loss. If all are forced on the market
or any considerable part Of them at the
tender, acceptable frying stage in July
and August the price is bound to 60
away down. and they must be sold at
loss.
The most expensive, risky part of
the poultry business is to raise the
chicks to the two pound frying size.
The only practical way to save the
male half Of the flOcks 50 that they will
be fit and available for food when
needed is to make capons Of them.
This should be done when they are
from six to eight weeks old or when
they weigh a pound and a half to two
pounds, which should be between the
ages given. Any time between these
ages and weights will be all right.
1t is these young males that spoil
the egg crop. Caponize them. Market
only infertile eggs and get more fol
them and at the same time make the
capons the most profitable part Of the
poultry business.

TAKE CARE OF EGGS.
Farmers Should Candle Them For Their
Own Advantage.

Farmers Should Candle Them For Their
Own Advantage.
That 1t would pay the farmer to
candle eggs is the opinion Of N. L.
Harris, superintendent Of the poultry
plant at the Kansas State Agricultural
college.
During the hot weather 1t is an ad-
vantage to the farmer to candle the
eggs for two important reasons-to
avoid selling eggs that may have be
come spoiled from lying in the sun or
being gathered from stolen nests and
to satisfy oneself that the merchant to
whom he is selling is justified in the
return of eggs.
One Of the most satisfactory and
least expensive methods Is to make
a roll or tube Of common brown pa
per, which should be twelve inches
long and the size Of the egg in circum-
ference. Place one end Of the tube
SO that the sun can shine on the egg.

Hay Should Be Left In Swath Until

Prepared by United States department of
agricultural
Serious injury to sweet clover stands
may result by cutting the first crop OF
the second season too close to the
ground. Examination of hundreds of
acres of sweet clover in different Sec
tons of the United States during 1915
and 1916 showed that the stand on at
least SO per cent of the fields was par
tally or entirely killed by cutting too
close. To prevent the loss of stands
the United States department of agri-
culture advises farmers to examine
fields carefully before moving to de-
termine the height at which the plants
should be cut. At least one healthy
bud or. young branch should be left on
each stub. In fact, the plants should
be cut at least several inches above
the young shoots or buds. as the stub
Bile may die back from one to three
inches if they are cut during damp or
rainy weather.
One of the most successful methods
for handling sweet clover hay is to al
low the plants to remain in the swatb

should then be raked into windrows and

ton. In curing the cocks will shrink
from one-third to one-half their orig.

weeks to cure sweet clover by this
method, but when well cured all the
leaves will be intact and the hay will
have an excellent color and aroma.
When sweet clover is cooked at the

No instances of spontaneous combus
ton in sweet clover hay have been
noted, says the writer Of the bulletin
but this may be due to the fact that
comparatively little sweet clovor hay
is stored in barns. The same precau
lions in this regard should be taken
with sweet clover hay as with red
clover or alfalfa.

WHY Salt XIII. Chickens.

Salt will kill chickens only when
they have not been accustomed to get
ting salt as part Of their daily feed.
Because they have not had salt for a
long period and have marked craving
for it they will consume an excessive
amount If salt is put before them. An
excessive amount Of salt will produce
salt or alkaline poisoning. Salt when
used in proper and regular amounts is
a good thing for all classes of farm
animals.
