Poultry EIocks Smaller.

Reports recently gathered concern
ing 5.29S fiocks of poultry on farms
and in small towns in all parts of the
country show that the average number
of hens per flock this year is 107, as
compared with 146 in 1914. This in
formation, which was obtained by an
incubator manufacturer in the middle
West, indicates that shortage of sup
ply has been an important factor in
producing present high prices for poul-
try and eggs. It appears that a very
considerable number of poultry raisers
have sacrificed many of their hens for
the sake of immediate profits-a policy
the effects of which are now being felt
