ARE YOUR HENSLAY-

BY J. H. Wood


Egg production has dropped co
siderably in most farm fioclzs and w
continue to drop until early whit
when the young stock commence la
ing. This decrease is natural and
be expected every year.
Best Layers will Continue Layin
The good layers are still laying all
the best layers will continue to Id
until late fall or early winter. TIL
longer bird continues to lay wit
out moulting the better record ar
the more profit she will make.
Poor Layers are Laying By"
Hens that stop laying during the es
ly summer months are poor prod
GERS and should be marketed. Thu
have stopped laying, are laying \
and will continue to loaf until La
winter or early spring. The rease
some hens have stopped is becaus
they have not inherited the ability I
lay longer or have not the vitalit
and stamina to continue production
If bird is not capable of laying
large number of eggs this year sh
will not be capabl enext year. Goo
flock averages can only be obtaine
in flocks where systematic culling
practiced.
Economic Value of CulIing. =
hen that lays only six months in tn
year will not be profitable if she mu.
be fed for IL months. If, howeve
we will market these short time LAY
ers as soon as they stop, small pr,
fit will be realized. Fifty per Gel
of the average flock should be cullS
out each year, By culling out nol
layers at this season the feed co
will be reduced considerably and tx
remaining birds will have more rool,
more attention and will give bet'r
results. Probably the greatest l.
vantage of culling will be foundn
the increased egg production of u
ture generations. By culling outhe
poorest producers each year we an
mate the chance of breeding fronhe
poorest laying individuals. By bed
ing from the better producersach
year the offspring are bound t., be
better producers than the rent
stock
How Many Should Be Culle0ut?
An average flock of hens tn re-
ceives fair attention and care ,ould
be laying 40 per cent in Jul, In
other words 100 hens should b law
ing 40 eggs day. If 100 hens
should lay 40 eggs we shoulhave
l-2 hens to each egg laid. Wwill
say we are only getting 80 eys a
day. Then we have 80 X 2 1-2r rs
hens laying. The 25 non-yers
should be culled out. If we ar,only
getting &c eggs a day we hav@6 x
IL or 65 hens laying and sould
Gull out the 35 non-layers.

spicuous non-layers at this sease are

British high commissioner. at noon
today informed the Egyptian pre-
mier, Zagloul Pasha, that instruc-
tions had been given for British
forces to occupy the Alexandria Gus

measure to be taken in consequence
of Egypt's non-acceptance of all the
British demands following the as
sassination of Sir Lee Stack, the
sirdar.
Alexandria has been more than
once the focal point of Egyptian
troubles with the outside world. The

DIR. Jesse Swank, pastor of Epworth
Nj. T.. church, declared here this

As the responsibilities of her life
became heavy "she found this trust
in God essential to enable her to
meet the great burdens that her oner-
Gus position imposed on her." Mr..
Swank declared.
This Ohio city which since 1920
has known the heights of her joy
and sorrow today was prepared for
the last scene in the life of Mrs.
Warren G.. Harding, widow of the

phen G. Porter of Pennsylvania
chairman of the American delega-
ton to the International Opium Con-
ference here. actively supported by
the Cuban. Chinese and Uruguayan

tory for publicity in all the commit
tee meetings of the conference. All
were agreed that the meetings of
the two main commissions should lie
public. but the principal producing
and manufacturing states, Under the
leadership of India. endeavored to
have all the subcommittee meetings
kept secret.
Mr.. Porter declared there was no
reason why what was going on in
Geneva should not be public. If the
doors were closed. he said. the only
effect would be to arouse public dis
trust. He favored the system pre-
vailing in the congress of the United
States where any committee could
go into executive session when spe-
cial conditions justified that course.
but he believed the safe rule was
to make all meetings open in prin-
ciple.

King Calls ZiWar Pasha to
Form Cabinet-Situation
Has Serious Aspects

LONDON. Nov. 24.-The excava-

army has been begun. says an agency
dispatch from Cairo this afternoon.
LONDON, .'.ov. "a (By The Asso-
ciated Press).-That the Egyptian
crisis has been greatly eased by the
resignation of Premier Zagloul Pasha
is the view understood to have pre-
vailed at an hour-and-a-h -half's session
of the cabinet called this noon to
consider the Egyptian reply to the
British demands.
The announcement of the resigna-
tion, which was made during the
cabinet meeting, may, it is said, in
fiuence the British governments ac-
ton. although It is understood the
cabinet will reiterate Field Marshal
Lord Allenby's statement to the
Egyptian government that Great Bri-
tain will proceed to carry out the de-
mands not granted by Egypt.
Austen Chamberlain, secretary for
foreign affairs, was expected to in
struct Lord Allenby to announce the
cabinets decision to the Egyptian
government, but 1t was considered
probable the high commissioner in
Egypt would be instructed to confer
first with Ziwar Pasha, who is sue
ceeding Zagloul Pasha as premier.
CAIRO. Egypt. Nov. "a (By The

cabinet. headed by Zagloul Pasha,
rendered it's resignation today to
King Fuad. who accepted it.
The king summoned Ziwar Pasha,
president of the senate. who con-
sented to form a cabinet.
The acceptance of the premiership
by Ziwar Pasha, who was expected
to complete the task of forming a
cabinet this evening, is believed like
ly to ease the present tense situation
quickly, as Ziwar.is known as mod
crate man and universally liked. 1t
is even thought in some quarters
that a new political outlook will be
produced which will obviate the TAX
ing of the further measures which
