In general the simplest methods of
handling poultry are best, especially
on general farms, where poultry is
side issue, though such farms furnish
the bulk of the poultry production.
Labor saving appliances are of value
on poultry farms, but are not always
practical on general farms. Women
and children can do most of the poul-

by release the labor of the men for
other farm work. On general farms.

One house holding from rs to 100
hens can be used to advantage, allow
ing the hens free range all the time.
An excellent arrangement Is to have
the house near an orchard, which fur
nishes good range for the hens. BY

up all the necessary green feed and

pers containing dry mash before the
hens constantly, so that 1t will be neces-
sary to feed the scratch grains only
once or twice daily. Very little more
labor is required in caring for flock
containing from 100 to 100 hens than
Is required for from 30 to 100 hens.

testing, work carried on by the Ohio
experimental station with flock Of

furnished valuable data on the amount
OF feed consumed by IL flock Of layers

no less important Is the number Of
eggs these hens laid during the three
years of their lives.
This flock OF Leghorns was fed a
fairly well-balanced ration of mixed
grains and dry mash, containing meat
scraps, also green feed, shell and grit.
The hens consumed an average Of
174h pounds Of grain and mash dur
ing the three years, from November
"a, 1912, to October 6. 1915, which dur
ing that period cost 1927 per hen. The
hens laid an average of 351 eggs each,
or 1T eggs per hen each year, and
yielded total profit of $4.18 per hen.

years there were II of the hens still
alive, the mortality having been 20 per

If we triple the feed cost per hen
to approximate present feed prices,
and make the average price of eggs
80 cents dozen, hens of same aver
age quality would return an annual
profit above feed cost of better than

same basis, 1000 hens would return
to the poultryman a fair living above

CHANGE IN SUBSCRIPTION PRICE

The subscription rate Of the Daily
Sun will be increased on October Is.
from So a year to Sc per year. It is
with reluctance that the Sun makes
this announcement. A year ago it was
thought that the end Of the war would
bring down the price of print paper.
Paper did exhibit downward ten.
dency for time, but it is now back
at the highest figure in history and
without a doubt will be higher. The
actual increase in cost since 1914 in
the paper going into one years sul,-
scrlption to the Sun is $1.56. In adj
dition to this there are other increas
es that make years subscription
cost the publisher not less than s25C
more than in 1914. The increased
rate, therefore, pays only two-fifths Of
the increased cost of production.
The Sun, with the exception of the
Lakeland Telegram, (Which will soor
Increase its rate) is the last five dol
lar-a-year paper in the state of Flor
ida. This in the face of the fact thai
; 1t is universally recognized as one O
the best papers in the state. New,
print will probably never be cheape,
again. and with the passing of chea,
paper the five-dollar-a-year newspa
per must also pass.
Readers of the Sun will find it wei
worth the increased price. It is tn,
intention to keep it in the front rank
of journalism regardless of increas
ing costs of materials and labor an,

sltion of a good newspaper. TIL

We are advised by some of our

Gil of Jeanerette has put in force
an ordinance prohibiting tractors
with lugs on passing over main
street and that the Police Jury is
preparing a like ordinance for the
roads of the parish. The Herald

the use of the public and the trac.
tor has come to stay. II is indis-
pensable for the successful culture
of rice in this section and is fast
displacing the mule in breaking
land and cultivating other crops
They can also be used for hauling
and the roads should be built to
stand their use. The tractor is
useless without the lugs on the
wheels. To take off and put these
lugs on again is said to be days
work for a man. This is too big
a tax to put on the farmer. In 80
