Ivigor. A convincing demonstration in
this way was made at the United
States Experiment Farm, Beltsville,
Md, in recent Investigations. The
late moulters, selected from a flock
of 100 Rhode Island Reds in the fall
of 1920, laid several more eggs per
bird during their second year than
the original flock as pullets. They
were used as breeders the following
spring, and the first Red pullets to
begin laying in the fall of 1921 were
found to be the offspring of these
late-moulting hens. Their pullets, in
a period of seven months, have q.
ready averaged about two dozen
eggs more per bird more than the
original flock. The value of their
product would be about $1.04 per
bird more than the value of the eggs
from the original flock during the
same time. 1t is probable that this
large margin will be increased even
more in the next five months. In the
original flock the bulk of the produc-
ton was in March and April.
The wise poultryman will lose no
time in culling out these poor pro-
ducers of cheap eggs. He will start
this summer building the foundation
for a flock Of long-distance layers.
The birds can be selected now and
next spring; after a short rest in the
winter, their eggs will produce a
high percentage of strong, healthy
chicks that are almost certain to
make better records in flock produc-
ton. If good sires are selected the
Improvement will be surprisingly
rapid.-Farm and Ranch.

Some Hens Are Born Loafers.

Hens that are born loafers usually
begin by July to quit their job of egg
laying and start moulting, taking
most of the summer and fall to finish
the replacement of old feathers with
a new coat of plumage. This is one of
the outstanding characteristics of the
Improbable hen, and the poultryman
who keeps close watch Of his flock
may use it to his advantage in culling
out the undesirable birds. But this is
not the only dependable indication
of what may be expected CT the hens.
in a flock.
There are several things that the
wide-awake poultryman looks for at
this season. The low producer, having
small demand for the yellow coloring
matter manufactured by her body,
puts it into her legs and back, max
ing them a rich yellow. The busy hen
uses the color in touching up the
yolks of eggs and her legs and beak
become pale. These birds with pale
legs and beaks may not look so well
or so healthy as the others, but they
are the ones it pays to keep. In fact,
the hen that is most beautiful in
summer and fall should always be
under suspicion.
Other Marks of the Loafer.
On closer examination it will be
found that the loafer has a scaly and
shrunken comb, while the busy hen
will have a plump comb of bright red
color. The hen that has stopped lay
ing will have her pelvic bones consid-
erably contracted and the distance
between the bones of the pelvic arch
and the lower end of the keel will be
materially reduced. She should be an
early candidate for the kettle.
The heavy layer will show no
signs of moulting at this season, al
though she may have been producing
since last fall, but will stick to bust
ness until late fall, sometimes round
ing out a full year Of continuous egg
production. This y%ear-round laying
not only means more eggs, but also
that a higher price is received for
them as a large proportion of them
are laid in winter, late summer and
fall when prices T up. The early
moulter lays most of her eggs during
the flush season. The hen that can
keep up production under the com
paratively u%nfavorable conditions
that obtain outside of the natural
breeding season has outstanding Wig,
or and stamina.
