EGG PRODUCTION IN WINTER
Feeding a Well-Balanced Ration Is of
First lmportance-Greens and
Exercise Needed.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
The pulletS that are expected to be
doing their bit in the laying flock this
winter should have been put in winter
quarters early in November and fed
the sort Of ration that will supply
plenty of material for egg production.
Every attention that will tend to slim
ulate laying is demanded by the pull
let's at this time, for good early start
may help to establish the habit of lay
ing through a long season, say the
poultrymen Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
Good rations, however, cannot be ex-
pected to keep a flock laying properly
if health conditions are not what they
should be. Dropping boards and nests
need cleaning and disinfection occa-
sionally, and it goes almost without
saying that there must be frequent
changes of litter and always an album
dant supply of clean water. A sick
hen is about as poor piece of prop
erty as man can own, and many ex-
perienced poultry raisers go so far as
to say that a sick one is less desirable
than a dead one.
If pullets are little slow in coming
into laying it is sometimes possible to
stimulate them by some changes in the
feeding schedule. If the quantity Of
scratch feed allowed in the morning
is cut down by one-half, it will make
the birds hungrier during the day and
they will consume more of the dry
mash which will frequently start them
laying a week earlier than otherwise
would be the case.
Another help is to feed little Of
the mash wet at noon, as even this lit
tie variation seems to whet their ap-
petites. The use Of butlermilk in mix
ing this moist mash is one OF the best
stimulants to help start egg produc-
ton. If the poultry keeper feels that
he does not want to force the birds
too hard he may cut down on this
moistened mash. 1t is possible that
forcing too much on the feed may
cause the fowls to be weakened in fer
tility, but few farmers and backyard
chicken raisers will be inclined to over
do this matter of feeding. A little
stimulus in the beginning may have
great deal to do with getting the hens
started in their work, and once on their
way it is probable that they will keep
on if well fed and cared for.
If the weather is mild it may be pos
sible to feed the hens outside, and
when this is done they will generally
get plenty Of exercise When the birds
must be kept in, feeding the grain In

deep litter is the lsest way to get them
to take the needed exercise. It is
possible, however, to overdo such a
good thing as exercise. Too much
scratching and running around keeps
the layers always hungry, and the de-
mands Of the body are so great that
egg making may be interfered with.
The hens should go to roost every
night with = crop full of feed, and
usually a handful of grain for each
hen will be equivalent to cropful.
Green feed is one of the essentials
for laying hens and no good poultry
man will neglect to supply it in some
form or other. There is great va
riety of this kind Of feed, including
cabbage, nangels, sprouted oats and
cut green rye. 1t may be fed at noon,
or such green stuff as cabbage and
mangels may be nailed to the wall so
that the birds may peck at it.

MEATsCRAP AID FOR LAYERS
Kentucky Experiment Station Obtains
Big Increase in Production
of Eggs.

For three years the Kentucky ex-
pertinent station has been studying
the effect of feeding various amounts
of meatscraps on the egg production
of white Wyandottes. The average
annual egg production when 5 per
cent of the ration consisted of scraps
was 1909 eggs; when it consisted Of
10 per cent, 134.5 eggs; and when 20
per cent of scraps were fed, 141.6
eggs.
From the results the station con-
cludes that the mash mixture should
contain at least 20 per cent meatscraR
to secure maximum production.

Gull potatoes are absolutely worth
less in the market; they are even
worse, because they reduce the price
of the good ones. They do not in
crease the measure because they lie
in the "chinks, and they are too small
to increase the weight enough to make
up for their ''measly" appearance.

factOrily as mixing platform. Much
lifting and carrying can be eliminated
by placing the platform near the
forms and the tools, cement, aggre-
gates and water near the platform.
Have Forms Ready.
Before starting to mix the cement
and aggregates be sure that the forms
are ready to use and the correct mix.
ture of the cement and aggregates
has been decided upon. The accom-
panying table can be conveniently
used in deciding upon what mixture
to use. For convenience in explain
2ng how to make hand-mixed concrete
we will take a 1928 mix, which
means one sack of cement to two GU
bic feet of sand to three cubic feet Of
pebbles or crushed rock.
Place the measuring box near the
center Of the mixing platform and fill
with clean sand that has been
screened. When the box which, by
the way, has been filed and emptied
twice there will be two cubic feet of
sand on the platform. Level off the
sand until it is approximately two
inches thick and in the center of it
empty one sack of cement.
Mix water with the cement and ag-
gregates until the mass is Of quaky,
jelly-like consistency. Do not use an
excess Of water or the siren gtl1 of the
concrete will be decreased.
AS soon as the concrete is thorough
ly mixed place it in the forms. This
is necessary because the hardening
process begins Immediately and con-
crete, in order to gain its maximum
strength, must not be disturbed after
it has once reached its initial set.

Planted "Lombardies" for Protectio

Early settlers planted Lombardy
poplars to serve as lightning rods.
Joseph Schafer, superintendent of the
Wisconsin State Historical society,
has found that the tree had been used
for such purposes in Lombardy. He
says: eff the poplar trees safeguard
ed farm houses against the terrors Of
July sun, and the necessity of enter
aiming lightning rod agents, their gen
sual adoption throughout southern
Wisconsin was amply justified

Roun in Poultry Flocks.

Roup develops easily in flocks that
are crowded into small, poorly venti-
