INCREASE NUMBER OF FOWLS
Endeavor to Insure More Chickens and
Eggs Is Contained In the Maxim
Hatch Early.

F'rom the United States Department OF
Agriculture.)
An essential part Of the endeavor to
insure more chickens and eggs is con-
tanned in the maxin-hatch early. The
farmer who matches early in the
spring, either by incubation or natura!
methods, seems to have all the best
of the argument. When chickens are
Matched early in the spring they ma
ture in the fall and lay eggs in the
winter. Then, in the spring they are
ready to hatch early. Late Matched
fowls are late in maturing, do not
lay in the winter, and do not sit until
late in the following spring.

PRACTICAL HEN HINTS

Keep the hens confined to your

. Don't keep a male bird. Hens

. Don't overstock your land.
> Purchase wei; matured pullets
rather than hens.
Don't expect success in hatch
. ing and raising chicks unless
you have had some experience
. and have grass plot separate
from the yard for the hens.
Build a cheap house or shelter.
Make the house dry and free
. from draft, but allow for ven
tilation. Fowls stand cold better
> than dampness.
. Keep the house and yard
; clean.
. Provide roosts and dropping
boards.
. Provide a nest for each four
or five hens.
. Grow some green crop in the
yard.
. Spade up the yard frequently.
. Feed table scraps and kitchen
> waste.
. Also feed grain once a day.
; Feed dry mash.
. Keep hens free from lice and
. the house free from mites.
. Kill and eat the hens in the
! fall as they begin to mott and
cease to lay.
Preserve the surplus eggs pro-
duced during the spring and
summer for use during the fall
. and winter when eggs are scarce
and high in price.
