specialists in the United States d.
partment Of Agriculture.
The average number Of eggs in tie
first litter is about IS, although IN
individual hens it may vary from II
to 80. Hens that do not have to be SIT
can be broken up on becoming brooGV
and made to lay a second or a third
litter. The number of eggs laid in tie
second litter averages about u, and n
the third about 10, although there u
considerable variation in the egg pre-.
duction Of different hens.
Some turkey hens can be made tS
lay four or five filters, but this is not
usually advisable, as poults Matched
later than June do not have a chance
to develop for the Thanksgiving and
Christmas markets and are not suffi-
GENTLY mature by the following spring
to be used as breeders. A hen that be-
gins laying in the middle of March will
usually finish laying her first litter
early in April, her second litter about
the third week in May, depending up
on the number Of eggs she lays and
the promptness with which she Is
broken up on becoming broody.
Hens that are allowed to hatch and
raise a brood of poults after laying
their first litter often begin laying
again in the fall, but poults Matched
at that time are of little value except
for broilers, as they require too much
care and attention to carry them
through the winter. Fall-hatched pull
lets begin laying late the following
spring, but they are immature at that
time and pOults Matched from their
eggs do not develop into large, strong
birds as do poults from mature stock.

CROPS and PROFIT
PROBLEMS JUST NOW PRESS
ING ON AGRICULTURISTS
Farmer on Low-Priced, Fertile Lands,
Still to Be Had, Is in Best
Possible Position.

The economic problems connected
with the advantageous marketing Of
farm crops and the financing of the
movement of those crops are pressing
upon agriculture most severely. They
will be solved, however, and while
that solution is being worked out it
IS simply good sense on the farmers
part to make his efforts toward pro-
duction tell to the very maximum, as
best carrying him through the period
OF depression and hard times and
placing him in the best position to
take the greatest possible advantage
of the better times to come. We may
repeat that the cheapest farm crop,
whether from fields or from live stock,
is almost invariably the largest crop
which can be obtained. Or in other
words, the greater the crop, the
greater the net profit. To attain such
crops and to place himself in the adj
vantageous position referred to above,
the farmer must study, and must apply
the results Of his study to such prob
lens as soil fertility, its conservation
and increase; soil moisture, it's con-
troll; cultural methods, suitable and
productive varieties, ETC., etc.
The question is how can you best
accomplish and secure these things?
Can they be done on high-priced lands,
by paying high rents, with the prices
you get for your produce no greater
than may be had from that grown
and raised on much cheaper lands,
whose production is fully as great as
that of the high-priced lands? The
answer is unquestionably in favor of
the low-priced lands, when they are
selected because of their soil fertility
and the other requirements necessary.
1t is not the purpose here to point out
merely that the lands of Western
Canada would prove a splendid and
ready solution, but to emphasize the
fact that in order to overcome your
present difficulty, to remove some Of
the burden that you are laboring I'M
der, you must secure some line of
cheaper operation, whether it be re-
moval to other parts in your own
country where such opportunity may
offer, or take advantage of that which
Western Canada affords.
For information regarding these
advantages apply to any Canadian
government nt-Advertisement.

prepared by the United States Department

Serious ravages causing almost COM

dustry in parts of Europe by the Isle
of Wight disease has started deter

to save their business from similar
losses. Thus far the disease has not
gained foOthOld in this country or
in Canada, and it is believed that
should the disease become established
here beekeepers, queen breeders and
manufacturers of bee supplies would
quickly be ruined and horticultural in
terests would be seriously damaged
AS a first step toward preventing
this, meeting was held recently at
the bureau Of entomology of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, which was attended by special
lists from several states and Canada
who are interested in protective meas

The meeting decided to use all feast
BILE efforts to prevent the introduce
ton of queen bees from all foreign
countries except Canada, and to dis
courage the introduction of adult bees
into the United States except for ex-
perimental and scientific purposes by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. Since there is no known
Isle of Wight disease in Canada and
since it is hoped and expected that
the Dominion of Canada will establish
the same safeguards to the Bookkeeping
industry, it is planned not to establish
any guarantees or prohibitions
against shipments of bees from and to
Canada.
All the men who attended the meet

serious menace to Bookkeeping on this
continent that every possible step

would have prevented the accident as
no matter how hard it should be rain

the driver of the jitney could make
such speed on rainy night until he
told him he always used "SEE

BEST FLOORS IN HEN HOUSE
Caused by Moisture Coming
to Surface.

The floor in any poultry house Of
fers many problems. A large percent
age of the moisture in a poultry house
comes about through the floor. The
moisture rises to the surface of the
grornd and evaporates, in many in
starces causing disagreeable con-
dition for the birds. The best floor
in poultry house is built with first a
layer of gravel or cinders, in fact any
open material that has large air
spaces, then a layer of hollow block
tile, next very thin layer of cement.
A good practical floor can be con-
structed as follows: Six to eight
inches crushed rock, then layer of
tar Paper and follow that with about
three inches of cement.

The rag doll tester, which has saved
many corn crops by eliminating the

plant disease experts of the Iowa State

large amounts of corn rot fungus in
many sections, the seed corn ought to
be tested so that the dead or weak
ears can be taken out.
Dry rot fungus stays in the ears and
cannot be detected in the seed. How

often destroys them.

BITING OF YOUNG HORSES

Particular attention should be paid
to the biting of young horses, as
their mouths are much more tender
and easily wounded than those Of old
ones, though the latter are often
spoiled by improper bits being forced
upon them. A careful examination Of
the mouths should, therefore, be a
matter of frequent occurrence, and
not only should the condition of the
corners Of the mouth be inspected,
