Cost of Raising Flock
Must Be Given Thought

The four most important factors to
be considered if broilers and pullets
are to be raised at low cost are
the quality of the chicks, the quality
and efficiency of the brOoding equip
ment, the feed used, and the SANTA
ton.
Quality of chicks comes first, be-
cause nothing gives poorer start to-
ward low production costs than cheap
chicks from INFESTED stock.
BroOding equipment is next in line,
and quality and efficiency rather than
low price should govern ones choice.
Well-made equipment will lower the
overhead by giving years of satisfac-
tory service.
Feed, which is approximately SO per
cents Of the brooding cost, should be
bought in large quantities at cash
prices to take advantage of all saw
ings. Store the feed carefully, away
from rats and mice. Eliminate waste
by using efficient feed hoppers.
A sanitary program will do much to
lower brooding and rearing mortality.
Follow the up-to-date practices rec
commended by the poultry department
experts at Michigan State college

MUST NOT MARKET
BROILER TOO SOON
Error That Is Often Made
by Breeders.

Opinions differ as to the best time
to send the broiler to market. Cir
cumstances also differ. and isolated
cases of good fortune in making sales
cannot be taken as sure guide for
all conditions. 'Many growers" says
a dealer, shave failed TO make money
on broilers because they sold them
too soon. A squad broiler at one and
one half pounds is usually too small
to show a profit. He has cost too
much up to that point. The next half
pound often represents the proflt.
There have been two difficulties in
doubling the one and a half pounds
brOiler into a three-pounder; first,
holding them that long; second, mar
ket that will take them. Both diff
culties are being overcome"
In New Jersey, practice is now de-
out of the batteries or from under the
stoves, and place them in outdoor
feeding coops with Slated fronts and
Slated bottoms, where they can be
grown successfully to twelve or thir-
teen weeks of age, and to weights OF
three to three and a half pounds.
Some buyers in the East already ia
vor these larger weights, and there is
good reason to believe that this at
titude will develop further. At the re-
cent 'Fact Finding Conference" of
the American poultry industries, held
in Chicago, w. f. Priebe, one of the
largest poultry and egg buyers in the
West, said that "a three-pOund chick
en- may be worth as much per pound
as a two-pound chicken" Mr.. Priebe
thereupon warned farmers in the
Middle West to keep away from little
broilers, saying:
"Our hotels have discovered that
the breast Of three-pound chicken
gives more satisfaction than one
and half-pound broiler. One reason
is the price; the other is their Gus
toners. Now, the larger the bird, the
more money you make. You are los
ing up to certain weight of bird. My
advice to you is to have your bird
grow to at least three pounds-up to
three, four and five pounds, and you
will make more money.

Small Turkeys Sell Best

Turkeys have come within the mod
ern trend toward smaller units. Where
as buyers formerly demanded big
birds, such as heavy toms, and hens
sold at discount, the demand now
is for birds that weigh eight to ten
pounds, dressed. This year smaller
birds brought a three to four cent
premium over the heavy birds, states
81. l.. Shrader, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture poultryman. This
same trend has been noted in. the de-
mand for lighter cuts of other meats

Turkey Ration

Turkeys will readily adapt them
selves to feeding methods during the
winter and the use of a ration Of
mixed grains, accompanied by mash
mixture similar to the ordinary hen
egg laying mash, should be supplied
to them early enough to induce an
early start in production If the de-
sired early Matched poults are to be
had. Starting the mash January or
soon afterward, should start egg pro-
duction not later than the latter part
of March.

Placing Brooder House

The brooder house should be placed
on part of the farm land which has
been sown with alfalfa and where no
poultry was raised for two or three
years. If breeding is done early in the
spring, it is good custom to make
a platform in front of the colony, so
that the chicks may get the direct
rays from the sun. This platform
should be surrounded with wire trellis
until such time as the chickens are
old enough to be allowed a free
range.
