The Poultry Meetings Were a Success

Prof. ]. B. Hayes, poultry extension
specialist from the experiment sta
ton, enabled the people who attend
ed one of the ten different poultry
meetings held in the county, to Gull
out their none producers.
From Jay Morse's flock about
thirty birds were culled, and they
layed one egg in four days. Reports
from the others will be obtained later.
Now is the time to Gull out your
producers as the market is good
and they will do nothing for you until
next spring. a.,
The four rules for culling are,
first, keep only birds that have a shoe
button eye and clean cut head, second,
keep only those that have a faded
beak and legs, as a laying hen takes
this yellow color out of her beak,
legs and skin to make color in the
yolk and the non-producer does not
use it. Third, keep only hens that are
not moulting now. Early moulters
are poor producers and late moulters
are good producers therefore, those
that moult during July and the first
part of August are poor producers
and those mOulting as late as OctO-
Der. and November are your best pro-
ducers. In culling now you have to
open up the feathers to see the new
pin feathers, as early moulters only
lose a few feathers at time and do
not appear as though they were
moulting at all. Fourth, good layer
must have capacity. The bird is
measured from the end OF the wish
bone or breast bone up to the pin
bones on both sides just below the
tail setting. Good birds measure from
four to seven fingers distance there.
The thickness of the pin bones tells
whether the bird has quality, those
having thin pliable bones are The kind
that you want, those having thick
grissily ones should be culled out.
If bird is poor in three of the
above mentioned points Gull her out
and if good in three keep her.
There is still another reserve which
you may use, and if you do not feel
able to Gull your flock, call on the
county agent, invite in your neigh
bors and we will have culling de-
monstration.

INDIANA ONCE
LAVA MENACED
State GeOlOgist Sees Volcanic
Indications in State.

How close did Indiana come to having
volcs noes within her borders? This is a
question which has been raised by re
cent investigations made by the division
Of geology Of the State conservation de
partment. according to a report submit
ted by DR.. w. y. Logan, State geolOgist.
One OF the prominent geological fea-
lures Of northern Indiana, says the re
port. is a great arch which extends across
the northern portion Of the State. This
arch Of the sub strata is an extension OF
what is known as the Cincinnati Arch
and is a great fold Of rocks made mp Of
smaller rocks Along the surface OF the
arch there extends chain Of limestone
domes. These extend in a line from near
Kentiand through Delphi and Wabash to
Huntington and have been used for lime
crude and ground rock.
Beds Of limestone near the center OF
the domes are in a vertical or nearly yer
teal position and dip in all directions
from the center Rocks OF the main arch
and outer parts Of the domes are OF the
SiIurisn age. Fossil evidence indicates
the rocks OF the center domes are much
older than the surface bed rock Of the
main arch.
Should these rocks prove to be as old
as they are assumed 10 De. tueS hi"s'
have been thrust upward nearly 1000
feet above their original position. IL Is
cOnceivable says DR.. Logan. that such
thrust could be formed only by vol
canic plug which. had 1t reached the
surface. would have produced an active
volcano IN Indiana or. in the event OF
penetrating all the domes, chain OF
volcanoes extending from Kehtiand to
Huntington.
In the opinion Of DR.. Logan the coop
Grafton Of some public spirited citizen is
needed in order that a dome may be
core drilled to the depth at which the
volcanic plug presumptively exists.
