TO keep hen In good laying condition
win make her a first-class egg pro-
ducer.
The egg type or laying type OF hen,
In any breed, is the hen that with the
qualities that make for good egg pro-
duction. has no quality which is an
obstacle TO continual laying. The meat
type is not the converse OF the egg
type. even though the hen that is not a
good layer Is fit only for meat.
The meat type, In all kinds Of poul-
try. Is the type that grows rapidly and
at matuHty carries abundant flesh, es-
pecially where the preferred parts Of
the meat are produced. The most de-
sirable meat type is rather fine In
bone, with the frame well knit but not
too compact. Under any kind OF good
management hen of this type that is

REDUCE WASTE By GAMBLING
Difficulty In Determining Quality Of

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
Although the Gambling method Of de-
termining the quality OF eggs In the
shell is the best known for commercial
grading, recent investigations conduct
ed by the United States department OF
agriculture show that one group OF
eggs of inferior quality cannot be de-
tected by this system. and that II Is
inadequate In grading still another
group. The Investigations, reported In
Department Bulletin 702. show that ex-
perlenced Gamblers and those using ex-
treme care do not make many mis-
takes In grading eggs. Eggs with green
whites and those having "A normal APP
pearance but bad odors are not recog-
nlzable by Gambling. White rots. more
particularly mixed rots, eggs with
yolks slightly stuck TO the shell, blood
rings and eggs with bloody whites are
not always detected, and are included
In the group most frequently mlscan-
died by inexperienced or careless work
men. Eggs with brown shells or light
colored yolks make detection between
good and bad specimens more diff
cult.
In the studies with skilled Gamblers,
who candled number OF cases OF 80
dozen eggs each. the average proper
ton of bad eggs mfscandled per case
varied from OF In spring firsts to 1917
In very low grade cold-storage eggs.
The percentage of bad eggs which
could not be found by recandling
ranged from none TO 6.03 per cent per
case and depended on the grade Of the
eggs examined. In the commercial
Gambling of 128.5S7 eggs, 5.9S5 bad
eggs were found, OF which 71.65 per
cent were recognized by candling and
the balance. or 2s.85 per cent. were
not found until the eggs were opened
and examined individually. Then 1t
was observed that the 2S.35 per cent
was divided between a group OF 17.O2

DIFFERENCES SEEN IN HENS

Among general-purpose fowls all are
not equal In respect to either meat or

due TO size. or TO the shape Of birds In

which keep one fowl in good laying

Don't take your electric light or
