Getting More Money from Poultry


Florida is naturally suited for
HoultIy raising. or course there are
some soils too low or too wet, for
best results, but such areas are in
consequential compared with the vast
areas that are high and dry. Poul-
try owners who are striving TO in
crease their profits, and beginners
wishing 10 start with facts that will
save them money. should give atten-
ton 10 the following principles en-
phasized by DR.. Sanborn, poultry
specialist of the College of Agricul-
ture. |. Grow better chickens.
Secure purebred stock, which may be
done by buying purebred eggs for
Matching. Start baby chicks on sour
milk. Use care in brooding. Save
carly maturing birds for winter lay
ers. ?. Watch for diseases. In
orchcad season, the season Of heat
and rain, put a pound of powdered
sulphur in every hundred pounds of
IIy mash used. 1t is best to feed
mis- TO all the birds, regardless of size
nd axe. The mash will be less like
TO mod or spoil, and, if gcrehead
''es 0ppv" O.. - viii be Ices severe.
10 ret st'p usjnC sulphur before the
last of September. In case of Sc
we're out break, increase the sulphur
to percent of the mash. After two
weeks, return to smaller dosage. 3.
Gull out the early moltors. The best
layers should be kept for one or two
more years. The poor layersl
'annot 90 TO the pot too soon. A. !
Feed well. After culling, better
eeding gives more eggs from the few |
lens left than from all at first. |
Anlmal food is needed to make hens
Jay. If there are only few hens
n the flock, possibly they can set
nouEh bugs, etc. Otherwise meats
must be added. Clabbered milk may
'e substituted for meat scrap. Do
ot feed too much grain. Give more
1ash, pound for pound than grain.
!. House the hens we'll. They need
helter from the winds of January.
nd from the rains of summer, and
rom the attacks of wild animals and
hieves at all seasons.

Fall HatchinC

Interest in poultry work is cen
stantly increasing. Farm flocks are
being improved and poultry products
OF better quality are being put on
the market, and yet the supply can
scarcely fill the demand. Those hav-
inE good products for sale will always
be able TO find a good market. There
is better. more uniform demand for
table poultry at remunerative prices
than for beef, mutton or pork, says
Miss Minnie Floyd, poultry specialist
of the Florida State College. ITALIA
hassee. Florida offers an exception
Iailv fine opportunity over all other
states, viz: a winter tourist market
for brOilers and fryers. Florida peo-
n" have not in the past fully apre-
ciated this opportunity and have not
taken advantage of it by meeting the
demands. September will be a good
time TO hatch young chickens. The
bulk of the long summer weather is
over, the nights are cooler. making
conditions good for their growth and
development. Pullets hatched in the
late summer will come in as layers
in the spring at a time when early
hatched stock is getting somewhat
worn out. The cockerels will sell for
good prices in the winter for broilers
and fryers. If you have hens want
ing to set, put in quiet, dark place,
away from laying hens Try to set
two or three at the same time. so
one hen can carry the entire brood,
The Punta Gorda herald., 1922-09-08

and the others so to laying again.
If you have no broody hens, one of
the smaller makes of incubators will
be found helpful. 1t has been said
that opportunity" knocks at our
door but once. Such is not the case
in Florida poultry raising, but do not
fail to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity for fall Matching, rearing, and
winter farketing of broilers and fry

Control for Sweet Potato Whiteny

The sweet potato whitefy is rel
ativc of the citrus whitefy, and is
a severe pest to the sweet potato in
dustry in the southern part of the
state, particularly on late planted
vines. 1t is more delicate insect
than the citrus Whiteny ard yields
more rapidly to control measures.
To control this pest, spray with a So
luton of soap made by Gissolying !
to pounds of fish oil soap to so gal
Ions of water. The red fungus that
attacks other white1y also attack this
form, but due to the short growing
season of the potato the fungus does
not have time to become esta blished.

and sanitary" say members of the
Florida Home Demonstration Divi-
sion. The first step in this matter is
the use of clean ice, if it can be had.
The next is to clean up at once any
food spilled on the walls or shelves.
A weekly washing with cold water
and soda, Wiping the refrigerator dry
after cleaning is a necessity. The
drain pipe needs particular attention
and should be removed once or twice
a week, cleaned with hot soap suds
and scalded. 1t should not be re-
placed until it is cool. Keep the ice
box well filled, as the cooling off Of Il
warm refrigerator wastes large
amount Of ice. Keep clean stopper
ed bottles of drinking water on ice
rather than usinG ice to cool the wat
er. Do not wrap ice in newspapers
to hold back the melting, as it pre-
vents free circulation OF the cool
air thru the Refrigerator chambers.
Know what you want before you open
the door OF the refrigerator, take it
out quickly and close the door.
