SCIENCE IN RAISING POULTRY
Important Problem Is to Ascertain
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 fiocks.
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. It
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 laying hen. But there is need of
more records on this subject. Anyway,
hens make better mothers when old
than when pullets.

accustomed to see in the portrayal OF
this character.

The story of Billy Bartlett, the angel
