FORTY TAKE COURSE
In POULTRY CULLING
School Conducted By Mr.. Chapman
At Hancock and Chokio
Well Attended.

In spite of continued rain, bad
roads and the opening of the hunting
season about forty people attended
the poultry culling school conducted
by N. E. Chapman of the University
at Hancock and Chokio last Friday
and Saturday. In connection with
the course on culling, Mr.. Chapman
gave a talk on poultry raising.
A few of his maxims are; pullet
which starts to lay first in the fall
stops last the following year; pullets
won't lay until they are fat: non lay
ing hens are yellow legged, yellow
skinned, narrow backed, shallow
bodied; fat hens with dried up combs
and wattles are non producing.
Under breeding, he emphasized the
necessity of breeding chicken for egg
production just as cattle are bred for
milk production. He said every far
mer should have dry mash in self
feeders before his chickens at all
times. Two parts of corn to one of
oats and one of wheat, all ground or
cracked was recommended as the best
feed. In addition they should be fed
scratch feed one hour before sun
rise and one before sunset, with meat
scraps and all the charcoal, oyster
shells and grit they will eat in be-
tween times. Fresh water and either
skim milk or butter milk should be
kept before them as a beverage.
Allen w. Edison, county agent pro-
misses that further culling demonstra-
tions will be put on in all townships
this winter.
