Too Much Emphasis Cannot Be Piac'
ed Upon the importance Of
Early Matching.

By II. b. Lansden. Poultry Specialist.
Agricultural Extension Division,

Early Matched chickens are be8t

erels are ready for the market when
prices are highest and early hatched
pullets lay when eggs are selling for
the most
Early Chickens More Vigorous.
Early Matched chickens give the
best results. They are usually the
strongest and most vigorous be
cause they are produced from eggs
laid while the hens are In their best
breeding condition After long pc
riod of laying. hens lose something
of their vitality and their capacity 10

so late Matched chicks are. as rule.

Make Better ard Cheaper Growth.
because they are more thrifty and
vigorous. early Matched chickens make
quicker, better and cheaper growth
than late chickens. Weak and under
sized chickens often consume as much
feed as much larger and better de
veloped birds and still make no per
ceptihie growth
More Healthy.
Early chickens develop to the stage
where they can withstand extreme
heat and the attacks of parasites,
which are numerous and troublesome
in hot weather Late chickens are
likely 10 be caught by severe heat
just at the stage of their growth
where heat is most debilitating to
them. In their weakened condition
they then become an easy prey to lice
and mites. their growth is interrupted.
and when the cold. wet weather comes
in the fall they are peculiarly sus-
ceptihle 10 ii and likely TO develop
colds. while vigorous early chicks find
the GOODNESS stimulating and are not
injured by the dampness
Early Matching reduces the risks

When eggs do not hatch we'll early

reason for poor Matching and correct
