are much less than in l9l4-l7. 1t is
n common feeling that the price of
food must come down first.
Since the farmer is not in position
to influence market prices, the best
he can do to meet this situation,
which is very likely to come, is to
organize his business SO he can pro-
duce at the lowest possible cost.
1t will not be case of maximum
production as was necessary during
tho war, but case Of economical
production.
If science has found ways of max
ing the farm more efficient, that in
formation should be tested to the
limit during the next few years.
As result Of study Of many
farms in Colorado and in other states
it has been found that four factors
which affect the income most are:
l. Size Of business, 2. Acres in
crops, 3. Diversity, 4. Quality, or
crop and livestock efficiency.
These four factors VIII be discuss
cd in seperatc articles that follow.
An effort will be made to show how
and why these things almost always
determine the income. How will
your farm measure up?

Poultry Raising.

''lf you expect laying puilets for
the coming fall and winter, when
eggs are high in price, set and hatch
all the eggs possible during the
months of April and May" says II.
H.. Mclean, of the Colorado Agricul-
tural College.
''lf you expect healthy, bigboned
chicks, select and set eggs from
good standard bred hens that have
proved to be good layers as pullets.
The late moulters, the understood,
underfcd mongel hens eggs will
prove disappointment and should
not be used.
,'Poultry production should be
heavily increased in the state of
Colorado, there is no other state in
the union from a climatic standpoint
that excels this state and few are
it's equal. The profits derived from
poultry raising cannot be excelled by
any stock grown producted on our
farms"

ing, the chickens began to stir, and
the old hens would get down off the
roosts and begin to scratch around
for food. This furnished the nucleus
for further experiment, until it has
become an established fact that the
chickens will get out and begin their
work when aroused by the bright
light. Mr.. Beach adopted the sys-
tenn of spreading the feed out for
them at night and found that they
would get up at four thirty and be-
gin scratching about eating their
food and he was sure of all the fresh
eggs he could eat for his breakfast,
"direct from the nest to the table"
as advertised.
Mrs. E. L. Newcomb and Mrs. D.

weather and bad roads, when they
reached that point after having driv-

Prices Of farm products advanced
from 1914 to the end of 1918 some
So percent, according to government
figures, but things the farmer has
to buy advanced about 81 percent
during the same period.
The thing to notice is the slowing
mp in advancement of farm products
for l917-lS compared with the ac-
celcration in the increase of the price
Of things the farmer buys. 1t is IA

Thus:
