INDUSTRIAL boosters are re-
minding the people that all
lines of business must be kept
at a high level. The life O.
the nation depends most on
keeping the wheels of industry
moving, avoiding strikes and
labor troubles of every kind.
How this can be done is an
important problem, and it
would seem that for the good
OF the country concessions
will have to be made by both
employer and employee SO that
both may be able to cooper
ate and thus keep the nation
on a high plane of efficiency
at a time when efficiency is
necessary not only for pros
perity but for success as a

SCIENCE IN RAISING POULTRY
How Many Eggs Each Hen Lays
Hens Make Best Mothers.

The time has come when more at
tention must be given to high produc-
ton in the farm flock. 1t is not enough
that the poultry fanciers breed up
their layers and attempt to increase
the strain. Farmers should breed up
their own flocks.
We should know what the hens pro-
duce and let their stay on the farm
depend upon what they pay. This Is
the only business way to look at poul-
try raising.
Trap nesting Is the fancier's way. Ii
is good way. but other ways may be
devised to keep records of the hens,
The important problem is to find out
how many eggs each hen lays and
when she lays them.
Summer layers are not near as I'M
portant as early spring and winter
layers, for winter eggs always bring
better prices, so do early spring eggs.
1t follows from this that hen that
lays in winter, though she produces
fewer eggs. may be more profitable
than summer layer.
But authorities tell us not to keep
hens till they are very old. They say
the second season Is generally the best
for Il laying hen. But there is need of
more records on this subject. Anyway,
hens make better mott rs when Old
than when pullets.

There is a growing tendency on the
part of farmers and stoekmen in all
sections of the country to obtain regis
tered bulls and foundation breeding
stock of the several improved breeds
of cattle. For several years past. the
public sales of registered beef cattle
show an increasing investment from
widely scattered sections.
Higher achievement in live stock
husbandry is in keeping with the gen
eral purpose to improve in all lines of
agriculture. and in response to the
market requirements. is the general
tendency. In several of the western
states laws are enforced prohibiting
the turning of nen-registered bulls on
the open range. Steers by registered
sires invariably have an advantage at
the markets. and the better the breed
ing on both the Sire's and the dams
side, the better they look to the mar
ket buyers
Higher Level of Values.
As rule public sales of beef cat
tie held during the spring or late win
ter months, record higher averages
than fall sales. Yet it appears from
the public sales held so far this sea-
son that Shorthorn values are holding
to a higher level than during the
spring sale season. In public sale
of imported Shorthorns held at Chi
eago In November, an average of SOL
per head was obtained on u animals.
This average is the more significant
when it is understood that the calves
We're all sold separately from their
dams. Had they sold with their dams,
as is the usual custom. the average
would have been considerably higher

in Wisconsin disposed of its entire calf
