CHARACTERISTICS OF
POULTRY BREEDS
Those of Laying Class Are ReIa-
lively Small and Energetic.
Brahma Is Most Popular Of Meat Birds
Because 1t Is Largest and Most Rug

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
The LAYING breeds commonly grown
in this country, with the exception of
the Minorca, are relatively small, very
energetic and lively, mature early, and
are easily kept in good laying cond1-
ton. The Minorca is of larger size
and modified somewhat in the other
particulars mentioned, yet has more
the character of the laying class than
Of any other.
characteristics Of Meat Breeds.
In the meat breeds there is not the
same uniformity Of type that is found
in the laying breeds. The Brahma Is
most popular because it is at the same
time the largest AID the most rugged
I'm constitution. The Dorking excels i'm
quality of meat but is generally con-
sfdered somewhat lacking in hardness.
The Cornish Is rather hard-meated, but
being very short-feathered has its spe-
cial place as q large meat-producing
fowl in southerly sections where the
more heavily feathered Brahma does
! not stand the summers well.
! Characteristics Of GeneraI-Purpose
Breeds.
Among the popular breeds Of the
general-purpose class there are also
differences in type, adapting breeds tt
different uses. The Plymouth Rock Is
generally regarded as the, type meet
ing the widest range Of requirement.
In the general-purpose class.
The Wyandotte Is a little smalle
and earlier maturing, but still yer!
well meated and easy to fatten.
The Rhode Island Red has nearl!
the same standards of weight as thu

not putting on fat so readily; conse
quently it approaches the laying typ,
and is popular with those who wan

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
All poultry raisers should become
more familiar with the value of sorg-
hum grains, especially the Blackhull
kafir, as a feed for hens. They are
excel1ently adapted for this purpose as
the grains are nutritious, and in size
they are small enough so that they are
readily fed without cracking or crush
ing.
An investigation made in 1908 show
ed more than 100 firms engaged in the
manufacture of over 200 brands OF
poultry feed. Figures furnished at
that time by 33 of these firms showed
an annual output of about 10000 tons
Of these products. Approximately one
third of this quantity, or 10000 tons
consisted Of the seed of Blackhull kanr'
This was used mostly in mixture with
other grains, such as corn, wheat
screenings, etc. 1t probably is a safe
estimate that kafir or other gram.
sorghum seed forms fully 25 per cent OF
the prepared poultry feed sold in TINS
country.
There is a steady demand for these
grains in the manufacture Of poultry
feed. When the crop in this country
has been short, similar varieties nave
been imported from as far away as In
dia and China. The poultry Industry
is steadily increasing in this country;
it is probable that kafir grain woulu
form still larger proportion OF tnV
total poultry feed manufactured IL ~

LABOR LEADER IS DEFIANT
Local Draft Boards Begin Calling
Striking Workers Who Would Re-
turn to Work But for Hutcheson's
Refusal.

WASHINGTON. - A renewed demand
that William L. Hutcheson, president
of the United Brotherhood of Carpen-
tiers and Joiners, send striking ship
ward workers in eastern plants back to
work pending an adjustment OF their
grievances was made by Chairman
Hurley, of the shipping board:
Earlier in the day Hutcheson had
answered a previous appeal with
communication declaring 1t would be
impossible for him to act until he had
some definite proposition from the
shipping board asto working condl-
tons.
Hutcheson's virtual defiance of the
shipping board presents situation on
which oicials declined to comment.
Mr.. Hur1ey's request that the men
be put back to work Immediately car
ried no threat and shipping board Of
ficials would not say what steps they
have in mind.
Reports that local exemption boards
are preparing to call into the military
service striking shipyard workers
within the draft age prompted the

I ing that no such action be taken. De
i ferred classification for shipyard work
ers has been put by the provost mar

questions be decided in Washington.
President Wilson is known to b.
given personal attention to he labo
, situation and is following every move
in the shipyard strikes.
In his communication to Hutchinson
Chairman Hurley points out that tn
heads of the carpenters and joiners
union were the only ones who decl1n
ed to leave adjustment of .dihicultle
to the shipbuilding labor adjustmen
board. Even the carpenters locals, de
spite this attitude, Mr.. Hurley dc

SET STRAWBERRIES EARLY
TO GET FRUIT FIRST YEAR

Early spring-as soon as you
can get into the garden-is the
time to set ''everbearing" straw
berries, or, in fact, any straw
berries. With such an early
start a larger crop Of fruit can
be obtained the first year. The
plants also have opportunity to
become established and to de-
velop better root systems before
beginning to fruit. The mark
eddy different behavior Of the
1ong-season varieties has led to
) the development of cultural
practices differing in special de-
tails from those followed in the
production of standard sorts.
Directions for the culture of the
everbearing types, in so far as
the methods differ from ordi-
nary practices with strawber-
-ries. are given in Farmers Bull
