Winter Egxs.

%. n. Wilbur, instructor In Poultry Husbandry)
The winter months being the period Of
high prices OF eggs 10 naturally . time
when the farmer wants bis hens TO lay.
This 10 usually the time, however, when
the hens desire to take their vacation,
but by proper feeding and management
it is entirely possible TO have the hens
lay sufficient number of eggs during
the winter months to pay . good profit
over feed.
It has been found that the average hen
produces the greatest number Of eggs
during her pullet year. 1t is therefore
essential that We keep we'll matured
pnllets for winter egg production. We
cannot, however, depend upon any hap.
hazard methods Of management to get
this production. In the first place 1t 10
absolutely essential that the pullets be
we'll matured so that they will start lay.
ing by October or November. With our
American breeds of poultry it takes
about six or seven months for them to
mature enough to lay. It can therefore
be seen that 1t will be necessary to
hatch the chick previous to the first OF
May, and the value of the early hatched
chicks cannot be over estimated.
Egg production is an inherited quality.
High egg production 10 more or less OF
an acquired character and In order for
hens to produce large number of eggs
they must come, in the first place, from
birds which have strong constitution,
and they must themselves be vigorous In
order to stand up under the strain OF
egg production. The breeding OF the
birds will have much to do with egg
production. Breeding, however, is q
separate consideration too broad to be
taken up in this connection.
In order for hens to produce the
greatest number of eggs 1t will be
necessary to properly house, feed and
care for them. Pullets should be
housed In clean we'll ventilated houses
three or four weeks previous to the time
it is expected they will lay In order that
they may become accustomed to their
new conditions. Keep plenty Of good
clean litter in the house and change 1t as
1t gets foul and heavy or damp.
What shall be fed is perhaps our most
serious problem under present condi-
tions aud in many sections where grain
Is bard to get the judgment of the In
will have to be exercised. A
ration to give best results should be
composed partly of q mach, preferably
fed dry, and scratch grain composed of
whole or broken grains fed in the litter.
A dry mash which gives good results
and which is as economical as We can
find under present conditions is as fol-

RAISE A WAR GARDEN.

Work Of the Food Administration
In this State was greatly assisted BY
the success last season Of war gar
dens. Again the people of Maine are
asked to raise a war garden. They
ere urged to try and raise enough
food to supply household needs for .
year. War gardeners are urged to
male an estimate Of what they are
likely to require In the way Of food
and then make an effort to make the
soil produce It.
The hoe has become a weapon Of
war. The food situation was never
more serious than now.
