Profits From Winter Eggs.
By J. H. AicFAUL, Jr.
LII RiPhks ResetreA

year sees a greater demand for the pro.
duct of the poultry plant than the pre-
ceeding one and you should get in or
this business as soon as possible.
If you have not planned for this win
ter eggs, however, you are too late and
your thought is how to get as many eggs
as possible from the stock on hand. Old
I birds will not do as well as the younger
ones, but then, it is possible to increase
your present yield from them if YOU
adopt the right methods.
This can only be done through the
| process of feeding. No bird, no matter
in how good a condition or how good a
breed, will lay well unless given the
proper kind of foods to make eggs. You
can no more produce eggs by feeding
corn than you can grow a lamp-post by
planting saw-dust.
In order to induce the hens to Law dur
ing the cold weather you must pay strict
attention to the question of feeding. that
they might get those classes of foods
which tend to make eggs.
A well-balanced grain ration twice a
day is most essential to egg production
aud Of equal importance is the feeding of
some form of green food. Nothing takes
AhN RAaLE VI kAEEu AOOu III Inc men s
rations, and it should therefore be given
daily. Not in large quantities, however,
as little every day will work wonders
in the production of eggs.
To further induce heavy Laying one
should feed a good mash food and this
should be kept before the fowls at all
times. Hens are peculiar animals in many
respects, and especially so with respect
to their feeding. They should not be al
lowed to get hungry, nor should they be
overfed.
Overlooking is generally the result of
too much grain food. Two feelings every
day, morning and night will fe sufficient
but the mash food, by being kept before
them constantly, allows the birds to par
take Of it when hungry between meals.
The green food may be fed at noon each
day and thus does not conflict with any
other meal.
Keep the hens happy and contented at
all times This, with the proper foods,
will induce them to keep the egg basket
reasonably filled and thus increase your
profits from the business.
High food prices no doubt are a factor
in keeping many breeders from attempt
ing to produce winter eggs. But this is
a lame excuse, for, at the present price
of eggs, they can be produced at profit
in almost the same proportion as in for
mer years.
Keep the houses fairly free of lice, the
birds clean and in happy state, and give
them plenty of good, wholesome, egg
making food. You will then have little
trouble in getting your share of winter
eggs and thus realize profit from your
fowls during winter as well as other sea-
sons of the year.
