POULTRY
CACKLE;,S
RIGHT FOWLS FOR BREEDING
Hens Are Preferable to PulIets as
They Lay Larger Eggs-Free
Range Is Favored.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
If cockerels or pullets are used in
the breeding flock they should be well
matured, poultry specialists in the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture advise. Hens are better than
pullets. They lay larger eggs, which
produce stronger chicks. Yearling
and two-year- old hens are better than
older ones. Pullets used as breeders
should be mated with cock rather
than with a cocSerel. If a cockere
is used he should be mated with hens
rather than with pullets. AS a rule.
well-matured cockerels will give bet
ter fertility than cocks.
When possible. free range should
be provided for the breeding stock
It is better to provide it during the
entire fall and winter before the
breeding season. but, if this is not
possible. free range just preceding
and during the breeding season will
be of great value. Birds on free

GIVE CHICKS SKINNED MILK
Considered Desirable for Youngsters
During First Week, Accord
ing to Specialists.

SKINNED milk is considered by spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture very desirable
for chicks during the first week. In
order to insure that all chicks get
the milk it is advisable to dip the
chicks beak in milk before it gets
any other food. (This can best be
done when removing chicks from the
incubator) Give milk to drink as
long as it is advisable.
