10 DECEMBER EGGS WORTH
AS MUCH AS 20 LAID IN APRIL

The average farm hen lays less
than go eggs a year and she lays
them during the season of lowest
prices. 1t is quite possible to in
crease the egg profits from the farm
flock, says DR.. M. A. JUL, poultry
husbandman of the United States
Department of Agriculture, by de-
welcoming a flock that will not only
produce more eggs in a year but
will produce them in the fall and
winter. Ten eggs laid in December,
he says, are worth 20 laid in April
or May.
A study of the trend in the aver
age monthly farm prices from 1910
to 1924 shows that the lowest whole
sale egg prices prevail in April, and
that there is a slight increase in
July and August, with more per-
ceptible increase beginning in Sep
tember. The highest price is reach
ed in December. The important
point for farm flock owners to real
ize is that it takes fewer eggs from
October to January to pay given
quantity OF feed than during any
other time of the year. Although
the price of grain or of eggs cannot
be controlled on the farm, egg pro-
duction can be regulated to consld-
erable extent
The ability to lay eggs is inherit
ed. To develop an egg-laying strain
requires careful selection and the
adoption OF a consistent breeding
policy. The average farm hen should
not only lay at least 144 eggs in a
year but most of them should be
laid from October to March. This
can be accomplished by building up
the flock from selected females that
have these characters and with
males produced by such females.
Four guides to improvement are the
selecting each year OF (1) those hens
which mature early; (2) those
which lay best after they begin; (5)
those which seldom go broody; and
(4) those which lay well throughout
the late summer and fall Further
more it is important to hatch the
chicks as early as possible. mas
much as the general-purpose pullet
does not begin laying until seven
months old, it is obvious that Octo-
Der or November layers should be
Matched in March or April.
