TO STOP LOSS OF $4,000, 900 EGGS.

Over 15O,O00O00. eggs will be lost
to the food supply of the United States
if the old practice of sending hens I,
market at this season is continued. Fig
urcs complied by the poultry special
;sts Of the United States Department
If Agriculture show that more than
100000 LAYING hens, each capable Of
producing 80 eggs, are sent to market
from tibet Southrn States in the wintcr
and early spring.
Every effort, therefore. is being made
to encourage farmers 10 keep their hens
mtil after the spring alving season.
thereby getting a dividend for keeping
the hen through the winter. The spec
jalists point out that when a hen i
sold for meat early IN the spring, the
farmer gets no egg return for feeding
and keeping her through the worst
months of the year.
MoreOvre, the hen is marketable a.
poultry after she has produced her
spring eggs. Poultry in May may bring
; cents a pound less than it does il
February, but, they point out, tibet 80
eggs produced by the hen, largely from
wastes, more than offset any reduc-
ton in the price offered for live poul-
try.
An enrgetic egg-saving campaign t.
,.erevent early slaughter of the her
levy 8lays the golden egg" is now
rve4As conducted throughout the South
ern States. North of the Ohio River,
farmers have long appreciated the ad.
vantage of getting the spring crop of
eggs and marketing their hens after
the laying season or in the fall They
clieve that adoption of this plan by
southern chicken raisers will be profit
able and will materially add to the
food supply of the food supply of the
Nation.
