mere Farms, owned by Joseph B.
Baker, Of Olney, Pa, and tenanted
by John Geyer, on the Georgetown
Lewes highway, will this year start

ing interviewed, one of the largest
hatcherymen on the Del-Mar-Va
Peninsula stated that his plant
could handle thousands of eggs
each year and hatch them for those
desiring to go into the business, but
the drawback at this time is an
available supply of eggs. In years
past, this hatcneryman has grown

TO RAISE TURKEYS IN SUSSEX
Land of Sussex, 1t is Believed, can
be Produced on Large Scale

Believing that turkeys can be
grown throughout lower Delaware
on sufficient scale to bring thous-
ands of dollars annually to the far
mers, some of the poultrymen this
year are turning their attention to
this phase of the industry. The
land in Sussex county is well
adapted to growing them. In fact,
it is better suited than several Of
the localities on the peninsula
where they are being produced on
a large scale each year. With its
excessive hatcheries located in all
sections of the county, there is go
ing to be little trouble in Matching
them by the thousands. The only
drawback at this time, it is stated,
is the limited supply of eggs for
Matching. Already one man in the
southern part of the country is plan

EGG REPORT OF POULTRYMEN
Statistics Show That Production
Has Been Maintained


4 copy Of the April report of the
Delaware Farm Egg Record Club,
which has bene prepared by H. S.
Palmer, extension poultryman of
the University of Delaware, was
mailed last wek from the office of
County Agent Russell E. Wilson to
each of the ninety-two poultry rails
ers in Kent county who are mem
bers and are cooperating in this
project during the present year
This report contains the egg rec
ords from 2O,OOS pullets, 14,175
hens and 23,351 birds in mixed
f1ocks of both pullets and hens, rep
resenting a total of 167 farms
throughout the entire State, as well
as comparison of the egg produc-
ton with that of April of last year,
and it shows that the production
has been maintained fairly consist
emily for each group of birds. The
average egg production per pullet
for April of this year was ia, and
17.6 for 1928; while the hens laid
on the average 1914 eggs in April,
and 1853 eggs in 1928; and the
birds in the mixed fiocks produced
16.9 eggs each in April of this year
as compared to 17.8 eggs per bird
in April, 1928. Ir addition to these
egg records this report also includ-
es a very interesting discussion on
the subject Of coccidiosis in chick
ems by Dr.. E. E. Tyzzzer of the
Medical School If Harvard Uni
versity, who is one Of the leading
authorities on the blackhead and
coccidiosis diseases in poultry. In
an article which recently appeared
in the New England Poultryman,
DR.. Tyzzer explains that there are
several types of coccidiosis which
occur in chickens, some Of which
are not especially injurious, while
other types produce serious and Of
ten fatal results. One form pro
duces no visable evidence Of its
presence, while another causes
grayish spots in the lining of the
first portion Of the small intestines,
but does not affect the health of the
birds to any appreciablt extent.
There are, however, two types that
produce disease, one of which caus-
es profuse hemorrhages into the
caeca and sometimes into the lower
intestines, and the other type re-
suits in the so-called chronic
trouble with the 1hickening of the
walls of the intestines.
