HALF OF MATCHING EGGS
TURN OUT TO BE BLANKS
Nearly One.Half Of All Chicks That
Do Hatch Die In Infancy, Special.
lists Point Out and Tell Why.

Lexington. KY. - Kentucky farm
ers annually lose more than "a million
eggs and IL million chicks through
their efforts to rear chickens and
maintain the ten million hens on the
farms of the state, according to poul-
trymen at the College of Agriculture
These figures mean that one-half Of
all the eggs incubated fail to hatch
and nearly one-haf of all the chicks
Matched die before reaching market
size or maturity, the specialists say.
The main causes which they outline
for this loss during incubation and
the first few weeks of brooding are
due to the management fthe poultry
used as breeders, the care Of eggs pre-
vious to and during incubation, and
the operation Of the incubator. The
cost Of Kentucky chicks could be re-
duced more than 100000 each year
by increasing the hatch from SO to 10
chicks from each 100 eggs set. 1t Is
said
'-The first step toward more and
better chicks is to produce good quail
ity eggs" ]. H. Martin, In charge Of
the college popultry work said Eggs
supitable for producing healthy, Wig
orous chicks must be fertile, fresh in
quality. normal in size, shape and
shell texture and produced by healthy
vigorous stock. They should be kept
in a clean, well ventilated room hav-
ing temperature of about so degrees.
Ten days is the longest period eggs
should be held before being placed in
machines and the shorter the time
they are held the better will he the
hatch.
while the hen is good Incubator
Of eggs, she is being replaced rapidly
by the hot air, hot water or electric
machines, all of which give coed re-
suits under proper management. The
type OF machine to buy is the one that
Is durable, built OF good materials,
we'll insulated from the outside tenn
perature and easily cleaned. 1t also
should have a heating device that is
capable of supplying sufficient heat,
and a heat control that is accurate.
Ample provision for ventilating the
egg chamber is important. Operation
O fthe machine is best done according
to the manufacturer directions"

SUDAN GRASS GAINS FAVOR
AS HAY AND PASTURE CROP

Lexington, Ky. - Although only a
small acreage Of 1t was grown in the
state last year, Sudan grass has DEM
onstrated it's usefulness to Kentucky
farmers, both as pasture and hay
crop, and Indications are that more
farmers will try 1t during the coming
year according to crops specialists at
the College of Agriculture. Not mare
than 200 acres were grown in 1921 but
1t is probable that this will be increas-
ed to about 1000 acres this year.
The grass, which is a fine-stem-
med sorghum, is possible more valu-
able in the state for pasture than 1t
is far hay. this being especially true
in the case of dairymen and farmers
who are raising large numbers of
hogs. From the time that it is foot
high, the grass will carry about 1000
pounds Of live weight Of any class OF
stock an acre. On good land, the car
rying capacity is even greater. The
crop has further advantages in that
the seed is cheap, ranging around four
cents a pound, 1t is relished by all
classes Of stock and can be grown on
any type Of soil. The grass grows
rapidly during July and August until
killing frosts.
In Kentucky, 1t usually is seeded
from May until July and is cut for
hay whe lithe first heads appear. 1t
is possible to get two crops Of hay
season from 1t and some pasture in ad-
dition. From 10 to 20 pounds of seed
is used an acre. This may be broad
casted and narrowed in or drilled with
a wheat drill set at about two peks Of
flax an acre, the latter method being
preferable. The heavier rate fseed-
ing is best both for hay and pasture
purposes. u
J. 8. King, a dairyman at Somerset,
is among the Kentucky farmers who
have obtained good results with the
crop. Mr.. King grew IS acres In 1921
and will SOW IN equal acreage this
year. He ut one rcop OF hay aud thon
grazed the grass for the remainder OF
the season. II. p. Maggard, Flemings-
burg, estimated that he harvested sew
en- tone oof field-cured hay an acre
fro mtwo crops In 1921.
