Incubator manufacturers are busy
turning out big machines for next
years delivery. There is a powerful
reason for this activity. Old-timers are
forced to increase their Matching ca
pacities and new seekers for the profit
from chick production are arranging
to take advantage of opportunity.
Milford chronicle., 1923-11-23


Pullets that lay as described, late in
October, increase each month until
they reach a maximum about May 1.
This is one of the vital lessons taught
by laying competitions; it constitutes
one of the many constructive efforts
which naturally follow poultry rearing
for eggs in greatest number for largest
profit.
Pens will be noted in the present year
which will contain one or more indi-
Viduals of high fecundity while other
members may run to very much lower
scores. These pens may contain birds
fgom one two or more matings, the
parentage of the several families being
undetermined and in some cases I'M
known.
Where birds expected to be represent
tative of flock construction are not fully
known as to heredity. poor results are
going to be obtained-the usual process
Of elimination, breeding from birds that
have parental history of performance
back Of them, is the only sure road to
success in building hocks that viii lay
above 12O eggs per bird per year.
characteristics of Birds
Each week the subjoined table will set
forth such superficial characteristics as
indicate productiveness of each individ-
ual in certain pens. The characteristics
are:
1. Color of face. comb ana wattles.
2. Length of body.
g. Condition of feathers.
4. Condition of pelvic bones.

Quite number of pens laid over 50

was 95S eggs. Two birds laid perfect

Some of the pens have made rather
heavy starts-it is within possibility
that some Of the birds may be over
matured and molts, in such cases, will
surely follow. It is hoped eventually
that the American breeder will, as do
English and Australian breeders, so
mature birds that they will not lay
before the time that nature insists

A onetime popular fallacy made the

mand to an unheard-of extent. Good
roads have done much to further poul-

BEES. THRIVE ON sIRUP DIET
Every Colony Should Be Given Ten
Pounds of Pure Materal-Honey
Is Not Favored.

After the breeding season is over
and there are no eggs or larvae in the
hive, bees should be winter fed" saws
Francis Jager, chief of the division of
bee culture at University farm. "Ev-
cry colony should receive ten pounds
of pure sugar sirup, no matter how
much honey they have. Those that
are light should be fed more. Bees do
best on sirup in winter, because the
best of honey contains pollen grains
which fill the intestines of the bees in
winter, causing dysentery If they eat
too much or If the winter Is too long.
According to University farm expert
ments the proportion of winter NOR
tality of sugar-fed and non-sugar-fed
bees stands three to five in favor of
sugar-fed bees"

Ancient Welsh Customs.

The Welsh girl gives her lover a

pole about which the villagers danced
and played joyous games was always
birch. THUS the "bedwen" was a
permanent fenture Of the village green,
and the greatest g;line Of all was to
steal the bedWen. I'.is, when accom-

PROTECTION FOR
FARM MACHINERY
Many Valuable Implements Are
Left in Shelter Of Broad
Skies All Year Around.
LIKE THROWING away MONEY
Few Farmers Following This Prao-
tIce Realize Great Loss They Sus-
tain-Coverinq of Common
Axle Grease Is Good.

How many farmers would leave $50,
$50 and even 500 in bills out in the
open during an entire winter? Sounds
absurd, but scores of such bills, in their
equivalent of farm implements are
left in the shelter Of the broad skies
all the year. Few farmers who follow
this practice do so with realization
of the great loss they are sustaining
on the money invested.
A 500 machine left out Of shelter
over winter, means loss of from
IS to $15. At this rate it is quite evil
dent that machine shed would be
paid for in two or three years, even
at present building costs.
Store Implements Properly.
A suitable shelter having been pro-
vided, 1t is now essential to store the
implements properly. If the shed has
a dirt floor, keep the machinery from
resting directly on the ground. Place
a board at least under all supporting
parts. In order to prevent rust, thor
oughly cover every polished surface,
such as plowshares, mold boards, cul-
tivator shovels, power knives and the
like with common axle grease. All
adjusting screws and nuts should be
thoroughly oiled with ordinary ma.
chine oil. Every wheel hub and bear
