WEIGHT OF EGGS
ECONOMIC FACTOR
Reliable Estimate May Be
Easily Obtained.

The average weight OF the eggs
laid by hen during the year 10 now
considered an important economic
factor In egg production, says Wal
laces' Farmer. not only from the
standpoint OF the higher market
price for large over small eggs.
but also from the standpoint OF
egg weight Inheritance. Manifestly.
weighing each egg OF hen through
out the year is a laborlous task and
one that is wholly out OF the
question for the practical poultry
breeder.
According TO the poultry division
OF the bureau OF animal industry,
United States Department OF Agri-
culture. there are certain short cuts
that can safely be taken in estlmat.
ing the average weight OF the eggs
laid by given hen In a year. Thus.
Albert h. Godfrey, OF government
poultry Investigations, says:
IAN approximation OF the mean
annual egg weight can be deter
mined at the beginning OF the pullet
laying year from n knowledge OF
the average weight OF the first ten
eggs, the body weight at first egg,
and the age at FIRST egg.
A reliable estimate OF the mean
annual egg weight Of all eggs laid
by each bird can be ascertalned by
weighing the eggs laid by each bird
the first four days OF each month.
"A more reliable and more read
lily obtained estimate OF the mean
annual egg weight OF all eggs laid
by each bird can be ascertalned by
computing the mean weight OF the
eggs laid by each bird on any speci-
fed day OF the week throughout the
first laying year"

Use of Bait in Fishing
First Adopted by Fish

While catching fish with bait is
an ancient occupation which men
have been pursuing since very early
times. fish themselves began II long
before any men existed, states Al
fred c. Weed, assistant curator Of
fishes at the Chicago Field mu-
scum.
Angier-hshe are found In all
seas. from the edge of the surf to
extremely great depths. In keep.
ing with their extensive distribu-
tion the angler-dshes show great
variations in form. but are all alike
In certain structural features. All
have side fms developed and used
as legs and feet. Curiously, what
would normally be considered front
legs are behind, and what would
correspond 10 hind legs are In front I;
that is. the ventral (hind leg) fms
are under the throat. and the pee
toral (foreleg or arm) fms are near
the tail.
Strangest OF all. these fishes have
on the head an organ consisting OF
a slender rod with a fleshy part at
It's tip used as a bait. The fishes
do their angling after the Eskimo
fashion rather than that OF the
white man. The Eskimo moves a
piece OF ivory In the water and
when a trout comes to look at II,
strikes with his spear. The angler
fish waves its bait like flag. When
some small fish or crab comes to In
spect Ii an immense mouth opens
and swallows the victim.
Some of the angler-fshes have
long fsh-rods with strangely formed
bats. Many Of the bats are lu-
minous to attract their prey In the
darkness Of the ocean depths. Often
the bait OF the angler-fishes looks
like a worm. The colors Of the
fishes, and their irregular outline,
usually blend in their surroundings,
such as stones on the sea bottom
covered with growths of plants or
animals, commonly called moss"
so that apart from their bait these
submarine Izaak Waltons are prac-
tically invisible. In moving from
one place TO another these fish usu-
ally travel by climbing about
through the coral with their so
called legs, rather than swimming.

Separate Backward Chicks

Separating the robust or sturdy
birds from the backward chickens
cannot fail 10 benefit the poultry
man. Backward birds will not
make growth when running In
iocks where they are continually
harassed by older or better devel-
oped chicks A good plan is to make
a feeding crate In which larger
chicks or adult fowls cannot enter
and which gives protection to young
chicks while feeding. To give ex-
ira nutrIment to assist growth OF
quill and feather. mix well a table
spoonful Of linseed jelly (made by
stewing ordinary lInseed) in the wet
mash for week or so. This will
promote growth and quality as well
as luster on the new plumage.

Chick Brooding in Tents
Costs Less Than Houses

Chicks can be brooded success
fully In tents instead OF brooder
houses In regions where the rainfall
is light and early spring tempera-
lures are above freezing. according
70 the United States Department OF
Agriculture. In experiments con-
Quoted at the departments poultry
experiment station. Glendale, Ariz.,
there was somewhat less mortality
In the chicks that were brooded In
tents than In similar groups In reg
ular brooder houses.
In most cases the tents required
less heat for brooding, being warm
er during the day though colder at
night The tests were OF SO days
duration and the brooders were
heated by electricity. The estimat-
ed annual cost OF the tents and
equipment. including depreciation
and interest on investment, was less
than half that for the brooder
houses

Mineral Feeds for Poultry

The usual mineral feeds for poul-
try are bone meal. oyster shell or
ground limestone, salt, and grit.
The bone meal supplies calcium
and phosphorus and builds bone and
tissue. The oyster shell or ground
limestone is fed for It's high calcium
content and should be kept before
the laying birds at all times. Salt
is an appetizer and renders the
mash more palatable while the grit
Is an aid in grinding the feed.
These minerals build up the body
and keep II In repair.

Bob was usually a sound sleeper,
but that night he tossed and turned
for hours, tortured by the predica-
ment his little hoax had placed him

who had SO recently promised to
love, honor and obey, would not be
seriously impressed by an amorous
note from an unknown admirer. But
maybe Lynn was in love with some
body else? The rest Of the week was
a nightmare for Bob. And Lynn

preparations for Wednesday evening.

evening he decided to go to the
theater. too, surprise Lynn and give
her the scolding she SO richly de-
served.
AS soon as her taxi left that eve
ming he quickly changed to evening
clothes and followed in another cab.
BY the time he reached the theater
his wounded pride was at fever heat,
and as he stalked down the aisle
and seated himself next to Lynn
he was the picture of righteous
wrath.
But Lynn, when she turned to him,
was smiling happily.

CHAMBER TO OFFER|
j. s. BUDGET P[AN|
Three Major Alterations in
System Proposed by
Special Committee.

Marked departures in the Federal
budget system are proposed by a spe-
cial committee Of the Chamber Of
Commerce of the United States. which
will submit its plan to a chamber
referendum.
One would set back the date for
preparing annual estimates. so that a
new administration coming into pow
er would not be confronted with a
budget drawn by its predecessor.
Another would deprive the con-
troller general of the power to pass
on legality of expenditures.
The committee also favorS abandon
ment of the present scheme of budget
ing regular and emergency expendi-
lures independently.
Favors Presidential Control.
The present system, it says, has not
resulted in a well-rounded method of
fiscal planning, nor has it produced
satisfactory control of expenditures
With reasonable limitations. def
mite and adequate power to control
expenditures should be given the
President by statute" the report says.
The present allotment system
should be broadened and strengthened
so as to prevent any unit spending in
excess OF appropriations and to re-
duce expenditures of non-mandatory
nature wherever possible.
Expenditures should be so con-
trolled under Executive direction as
to avoid the necessity of deficiency
appropriations, except in cases of un-
predictable emergency threatening
loss of life or property.
Authorizing any taxpayer to main
tain court action to restrain an off,
cial or agency spending in excess of
appropriations would be an effective
method of preventing deficiencies.
Separate Veto Power Urged.
The President should be given pow
er to veto individual items in appro-
priation bills"
On the proposal to change the duties
of the controller general, the commit
tee says:
The functions of the present Office
of controller general should be limited
to those of an auditor general as leg
islative agent-that is. concerned pri-
marily with the propriety and advis-
ability of expenditures and fiscal oper-
ations rather than their fidelity"
1t proposes a budget committee for
both Senate and House and recon-
mends that the appropriation commit
tees of each branch hold Joint hear
ings in the interest of avoiding dupli-
cation and speeding action.
