due the birds, will do the trick.
We know that artificial lights will
give the birds time to consume more
feed which will be turned into eggs,
providing the feed has been properly
balanced for formation Of the egg
Fresh blood, milk or fishmal mixed
at the rate of Is per cent to ground
grains (mashes) will give the desired
result.
1t is the custom in this world that
when We get something we often for
get how to keep it, and many a
poultryman has been victim of this
custom. Believing we have a sure
thing we easily make a slip some
where and such slip will confront us
sometimes with a real problem.
To keep up winter egg production.
we first must have birds in tho lay
ing house, raised from chicks OF
good vitality. Such chicks will have
had proper care, have not been
chilled in the brooder, or stunted on
account of bad feed or frequent NOV
ing from place to place If all these
precautions have been taken care of
the pullets will give good production
at the age of five months and keep it
up to the next fall moulting time,
providing the poultryman is able to
maintain the vitality OF the birds.
This can be done by feeding an abund-
ant supply of feeds containing the 80
called vitamines. These fortify the
body of the hen to stand the strain
of heavy laying, changes in weather
and sickness. Terminated grains,
especially oats, are rich in yitamines
and therefore good for the growing
pullet.
The most serious problem in our
winter months is to combat colds in
our focks. The writer's experience
with this problem is that the best
preventive is to harden pullets to the
weather condition. Contrary to GER
tain statements it has been proved to
us that pullets which have been
turned out on the ground for one hour
each evening, providing no frost or
snow was on the ground, have not
been troubled with colds and other
ills connected with it. But it Is very
important to begin this practice early
in the fall so the birds get accustomed
to the gradually decreasing tempera-
