start Home Mixing.
One Of the easiest ways to start
home mixing Is to duplicate formuln
already In use. A beginner should
take mixture which has been sue.
cessfully used on the crop he Is rails.
Ing on similar soil, get price on the
mixed goods. and then see what n
home mixture of similar composition
will cost.
A general rule to use In making up
formulas is first to decide what per.
centages IRE required, aud then what
materials shall be used. Start with

Any other material may be used In
a similar manner. II Is not necessary
to be exact down to the fraction Of a

Home mixing of fertilizer materials
Is cheaper than buying ready-mixed
fertilizers. The saving varies from
time TO time. according TO fertilizer
experts of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture, but the balance
is always on the side of home mixing
and Is usually substantial. Also. the
home-mixed fertilizer Is frequently
better than the ready.mixed ones. A

third Of this loss is preventable, be-
cause 1t is due to partial Matching Of
fertile eggs which have been allowed
30 become warm enough to begin to
incubate. -
The rooster makes the egg fertile,
while the fertilized egg produces the
blood ring which is the partial de-
velopment Of the chick. The rooster
does not increase egg production; he
merely fertilizes the germ Of the egg.
and hence he should be allowed to run
with the flock only during the hatch
ing season.
Heat the Enemy Of EogA
Summer heat has the same effect on
fertile eggs as the hen or incubator.
The fertile germ In hot weather
quickly develops into blood ring
which spoils the egg for food or mar
ket purposes. Heat is the great en-
emy Of eggs, both fertile and iDfertile.
On this account specialists Of the
United States department OF agricul-
ture urge poultry producers In warm
weather to keep nests clean and to
provide one nest for every four fowls,
In order that the nest will not be used
too often and soil the eggs; to gather
the eggs twice daily; to keep the eggs
In a cool. dry room or cellar; to mar
ket the eggs at least twice a week.
and to pen or dispose Of all roosters
as soon as the Matching season IL
over.
Hens isolated on range and pasture
from the male birds produce infertile
eggs Of desirable market quality. In
general. about two weeks after the
ROSTERS are removed from the flock
the hens will again yield infertile eggs.
