GULL POOR PRODUCING HENS
Work Should Be Started II. Summer
and During Early Fall Months
Comb Is Indicator.

The hens should be culled tut dur
ing the summer and early fall
months, beginning to Gull out the poor
producers just as soon as they stop
laying. which is usually in July and
August. When a hen is laying her
comb will be large, full of blood, and
bright red in color. AS she stops lay
ing, the comb becomes small and
shrunken. pale or duh in -olor and
is usually rather hard. Another good
indication to use In selecting those
hens which stop laying early is mott
ing. as the hens that start to mott
early-that is, in July and August
are usually the poorest producers.
While Il hen which has molted most
OF her feathers is very easy TO pick
out by sight without examination. the
only way to ascertain accurately
when the hens begin to molt is to ham
die them. Before the body and wing
feathers are NOTED in any great num-
Der you will find short pin feathers
growing thickly on the back and in
the feather tracts running back from
the breast, indicating that these hens
have started TO mott and probably
have stopped laying II their combs
and general appearance indicate non.
production. The pelvic bones are also
helpful in making this test as these
two bones tend to close up when the
hen stops laying. If the spread be-
tween these bones measures two
fingers or less the probability is that
spread is greater together with other
mentioned, she is probably
laying.

Market reports are history, and the

Small benefit is generally derived
from reading a single market report,

Markets move in cycles, and the man
who would keep informed must follow
them diligently In season and out
This is a matter of particular impor-
