POULTRY NOTES

Sorting Cockerals and Pullets.-
The early hatches of this year are by
this time developed sufficiently to al
low sorting cockerals and pulletS If
the sexes are in the usual proper
tor, from 40 to 60 per cent of the
young stock will be males, and, even
without considering the matured
males on hand, not more than an
eight or tenth of these young males
are needed for breeding.
As a matter Of course, this refers
to tarm-raised stock, pure-bred, GER
tainly, but not all "bred in the pur-
pie"
Capouizins the Cockerals-The
poultry breeder should, at this juno
ture, be able to apply the score card,
for his breed, at least, and all cock
erels showing defects, disqualifying
points sufficient to reduce their prs
pective value as breeders, should be
eaponized as early as convenient,
turning what would be inferior
breeders into high-class, profitable
table poultry. II any information on
this Important matter is needed, ap-
rly direct to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, Washing

452. It will tell you all about capons

Avoiding Hot Weather Troubles
Hot weather brings to poultry dis
somforts that can be minimized by
exercising proper care. Poultry
should never be compelled to seek
their feed in a place exposed to the
IN, or to rain in wet weather. A
low ,shed roof about 8x10 feet, and
having sides all open. will give the
poultry the needed shelter, and, fit

Build or Repair Poultry Houses
This is the best time of year to build
new, or overhaul old poultry build
ings. Now poultry house need not be
an expensive one. No elaborate orna-
mentation is needed, but it should be
planned with judgment, keeping
some important points clearly in
view.

dead chicks, rats, birds, or such, to
