EXTRA MILKING is
GAINING IN FAVOR

Is II profitable for the average dairy
farmer to milk three times day cur.
ing the winter months II he can find
the time to do it3 The New Jersey
College Of Agriculture, Rutgers uni
versity, says II Is and offers two re-
cent experiences TO support the state
ment.
A few weeks ago when the herd
at the college farm failed ito supply
the demand for Rutgers special milk,
Il was decided TO milk nine Of the
cows three times day, with the idea
Of making up the shortage In spite
Of the fact that these animals had all
been milking from three to six months,
the average daily production per COW
Increased four quarts under the three
milkings. II these COWS had been
fresh, the increase would have been
greater, the college dairy specialist
asserts.
The other example is that Of d.
Morton Davis, Marlboro, Cumberland
county. a breeder Of pure-bred Hol-
STEMS who had the most productive
herd In the Salem-Cumberland cllou-
cester association last year by milk
ing three times a day The average
OF his cows was 1921 pounds OF milk,
and 415 pounds OF butterfat for the
year. Mr.. Davis states that by milk.
Ing a group OF ten cows three times a
day. instead of twice. he can ship an
extra 40-quart can Of milk.
When Holstein cows give 90 or more
pounds Of milk a day. Jerseys and
Guernseys 40 or more, they should.
for humane reasons, be MIXED three
times, continues the college Of agri-
culture. When any COW Is giving 40
pounds a day, a Is to 20 per cent In
crease can be expected from the extra
milking. It Is also thought By many
that milking two-year-old helfer
three times day tends to increase
her future as well as her present milk
giving capacity. BY feeding a bal
anced ration according to the amount
OF milk produced, the increase In feed
cost will be very small.
Most dairy farmers now realize that
the price OF milk cannot be advanced
very much without reducing the
amount OF milk consumed by the gen
erai public. With this idea IN mind
they realize that only through more
efficient production can they get more
profit per COW.

"a Rf
POULTRY
RIGHT FEED WILL
STOP SOFT SHELLS

At this time OF the year no com
plant Is much more common than that
hens are laying soft-shelled eggs. This
means considerable loss through a
corresponding reduction In the guam
tity Of marketable eggs produced. The
causes Of sOft-shelled eggs are well
known to the well-informed poultry
man. He understands that the ap-
pearance Of such an egg is an indlca-
tion Of improper feeding and he gov
erns himself accordingly.
The yolk OF the egg is fully formed
when It breaks from the hens ovary
and drops into the funnel-shaped
mouth Of the oviduct. II Is at this
point that fertilization OF the egg takes
place, II the egg Is to be fertillzed, and
probably within few minutes OF the
breaking loose OF the yolk. In about
three hours the formation Of the
thicker albumen is completed. this
taking place IN the upper and central
sections of The oviduct.
The third and last section of this
organ secretes the shell membrane,
and II also requires about three hours
for the shell to form therein. BY the
expansion and contraction OF the walls
Of the oyIduct the egg Is forced for
ward into the shell gland, where the
lime is deposited, and within - to
a hours the egg Is laid One can
readily see that anything that would
have tendency to make the egg pass
too rapidly through this portion OF
the oviduct would cause the hen TO
lay soft-shelled eggs
The first and usual cause OF soft
shelled eggs Is that the bird is too fat.
The muscular movement OF the oviduct
is hindered by layers OF fat. and In
stead Of the egg being controlled by
firm muscles II merely slips through
a fiabby mass without getting its shell
on. The difficulty VIII vanish II the
birds are made to scratch hard in a
clean. dry straw litter for all their
grain, and the ration fed is not over
fattening. Sprouted oats win be
valuable food. as they are less fat
tening than either wheat or corn. Tn
some cases It might do well to omit for
few days all mashes, especially
moist mashes, II many soft-shelled
eggs are coming through.
The second source Of sOft-shelled
eggs is lack OF lime in the hens ra-
tion. In this case the shell-secretlng
part Of the ovlduct fails to do It's
work because Of lack OF material
Oyster shell broken fine enough for
the hens to eat or dry granuIated
bone are good sources for the lime
required. II is claimed by some poul-
trymen that the use of limestone grit
also helps to supply material TO the
hen. It is often recommended that
old plaster or mortar be broken or
ground fairly fine and thrown into
box In the pen for the birds 10 eat
