PIGMIES OF POULTRY WORLD
Bantam Breeds Have Distinct Utility
Value for Egg Production for
Family Use.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture.) y
The Bantam breeds gained their
popularity as ornamental fowl and as
playthings for children and grown-ups,
but, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, they have also
distinct utility value for egg pro-
duction for family use. There is also
good demand for eggs for Matching
and for breeding stock Of good quail
ity. Because of their small size these
pigmy breeds often have the advantage
over larger fowls where only very
small space Is available for the flock.
They are easy for children to handle,
and the ownership of few Bantams
often is the beginning of real interest
in poultry raising.
The various breeds of Bantams, their
characteristics, and methods Of man
agement are discussed In Farmers
Bulletin 1851, The Bantam Breeds and
Varieties, the fifth of q series on
Standard Varieties of Chickens. The
various breeds, says the bulletin, have
not been raised with the idea Of egg
production and, as result, the aver
age is not very high, probably around
It's eggs in a year. The eggs vary
in size, as do the different Bantam
breeds, ranging from IL ounces a doz-
en- to 18 or 20 ounces. The color Of
the eggs runs from white to dark
brown. Some of the breeds have a
tendency to lay for fairly long peri
Cd, but the Brahmas, Cochins and
Silkies are apt to be broody. Since
many Of these kinds have been de-

FIND HIDDEN TURKEY NESTS
When Confined in Pen Until Late In
Day, Laying Hen Will Go
Straight to Her Eggs.

A quick and easy way to find stolen
nests of turkeys is to confine the
birds from early morning to late after
noon. The laying hens will then go
straight to their nests to lay the eggs
which they are holding, say poultry
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. When tur-
key hens have free range they nest
usually in obscure places and often
wander a half mile or more from home
before they find nesting place that
suits them.
If attractive nesting places are pre-
pared about the barnyard, the turkeys
sometimes lay in them. Such nests
are easily made from boxes or bar
rels, or by scooping out little earth
In the shape of shallow bowl, piling
brush round it to satisfy the hens de-
sire for seclusion. The nest most pre-
ferred by turkeys consists of barrel
laid on it's side, in which straw or hay
is placed. When confined in breed
ing pen several turkey hens may lay
in the same nest, but on free range
each bird usually makes her own nest
Turkeys do not range far during cold
weather. In the north, where the
laying season often begins when there
is still snow on the ground, the hens
are more likely to select their nests
near home.

LEAKY POULTRY HOUSE ROOF
More Annoyance From Damp Quarters
In Spring Than in Winter on Ac-
count OF Rain.

There Is usually more annoyance
from lealsy poultry house roofs In the
spring than In the winter, because
more rain occurs. Also, In winter, Ice
and snow may remain for weeks on a
roof without melting, and really assist
to protect against the winds but In
spring any lealxy places will be OPEN

veloped from the larger standard
breeds they have many Of the same
characteristics.
Reports collected from Bantam
breeders show that the average hen
will eat from 25 to 35 pounds of feed
in year, which is about one-half as
much as hen of the Mediterranean
breeds or one-third as much as a hen
of the larger breeds would eat.

few months ago the automobile truck
of the firm of William F. Childs and
Son, which its driver had left at the
top of the hill, with engine running
went off down the steep grade and
plunged into the creek. Only a few
days ago, construction of a fence
along the bulkhead was completed
and bill for the work was presented
to the Council. The erection of this
fence was chiefly as a safeguard to
children. Last night the touring car

PENDANTS in the Governments Sher-
man suit, begun II years ago.
During the 12-year wait, caused in
large part by a decision to await rul-

Trust cases, the defendant corpora
tons in the sugar trust case have
abandoned their combination and

The judges, sitting as an eXpedi.ing
