CULLING LEADS TO
PROFIT FROM EGGS
Reducing Size Of Flock to
Fit House Important.

By H. H. Alp, Extension Poultryman.
University of Illinois.-WNU Service.
With feed prices soaring, farmers
who are counting on eggs as
source of cash revenue will need to
watch closely those practices which
tend to lower production costs.
Feed is usually considered to be
go per cent of the total cost OF
producing eggs. However, it will be
folly for most flock owners to at
tempt to concoct cheap rations by
using unsatisfactory substitutes for
some Of the standard grain ingredi-
ents.
1t will pay in most cases to stick
with the regular proved rations and
to look elsewhere for ways Of lower
ing the cost of production.
Culling the flock to eliminate all
birds except those in top physical
condition is one method of lowering
production costs. Culling not only
helps to eliminate wasteful feeding,
but also tends to lessen chances of
future mortality.
Reducing the size of the flock to
fit the house so that each bird has
four square feet of floor space is
also important. Special attention
to an adequate supply of water, es-
pecially during cold weather, will
also go long way toward lowering
production costs.
Cleanliness Of the water is as
vital as the abundant supply. Keep
ing the water clean, not by pills but
by clean dishes and stands, is one
Of the chief methods Of obtaining
efficient egg production. Further
more, the value of good care and
cleanliness around the poultry house
can not be overestimated.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1936-11-19
Concrete Floor Is Best
for the Poultry House

Concrete makes the most salts
factory type of poultry house floor,
advises the Missouri experiment sta
ton. 1t is easily cleaned, ratproof,
and provides a dry, durable floor.
Where the sand and gravel are OBJ
tainable, thin section concrete
floor can be installed for two cents
per square foot.
The success of such a floor is de-
pendent upon having dirt or rock
fill eight to ten inches above the
ground level. This fill must be
tamped we'll to prevent it from set
Ting. If dirt fill is used, it is de-
sirable to place layer of cheap
t.: paper on top Of the fill to pre-
vent any capillary water seeping
through the concrete.
The use Of good quality concrete
is important in making the floor. In
order to have a water-tight floor, it
is necessary to limit the water to
five or five and one-half gallons to
each sack of cement. Creek gravel
can be used if there is enough sand
in the mixture to make the con-
crete smooth. A mixture of one part
of cement to four and one-half or
five parts of gravel, or mixture
of one part of cement, two parts of
sand and three parts of gravel can
be used. After the concrete has been
poured, it should be srnoothed as
much as possible in order to facili-
tate cleaning.

Poultry Hints

Poultry ailments are prevented
much easier than cured.
Eggs are high in food value, but
rather low in fuel value.
Wisconsin hens lay one billion,
21O million eggs in year.
Several Wisconsin counties have
more than half million chickens.
The dwelling house basement or
cellar, if available, will probably
be one of the best places on the
farm to store eggs to protect them
against heat.

Kiwanis Is Told
Cuban Illiteracy
Political Problem
DR.. Wharton Says More
Wide Spread Education
Would Be Stabilizing

DR.. Robert l.. Wharton, native
of North Carolina but engaged in
Presbyterian mission work in
Cuba for 35 years, told kiwanians
yesterday of Cuban conditions,
economically, socially and politi-
cally. DR.. Wharton spoke for
the agricultural committee of
which G. C. PEBBLES is chairman
and was introduced by DR.. L. f..
Wilds.
DR.. Wharton, who is superin-
tendent of eleven mission schools,
now visiting in his native state
while enjoying a furlough, took
his audience over a period from
the time when Cuba had the
greatest percapita wealth of any
country until the present, when
economic conditions have reduc-
ed it to a point which is financl-
ally insecure. He discussed Gu
ban leadership in respect to edu-
cation, craftsmanship science and
some branches of culture. Some
of its citizens are. highly educat-
ed but about So per cent of the
population, he said, is illiterate,
which he thought unwholesome
for any country. because SUCH
people act too much on emotion
and impulse rather than reason
hence so much internal revolution
instead of a more stable govern
ment.
DIR, Wharton said sugar was
the main crop and at one time
two-thirds of the industry was
in the hands of American syndl-
Gates. which are now mainly IN
the hands of receivers. This re-
duced a large part of the popula!-
ton to a form of peonage, when
was economically unsound.
Cubans have competition with
Central America in growing
bananas, with the United States
in the production of beet sugar
in competition with sugar cane
on the island. Tariffs are UNI
friendly and all these conditions
tend toward poverty, dlssatlstac-
ton and revolution. The sugar
cron has been reduced from six
million tons to one million but
the leaders are making some
progress in crop Investigation.
DR.. Wharton said that the UNI
deriving feelings of Cubans to-
ward the United States was whole
some and sympathetic, feeling, ap-
preciative of what its neighbors
did for her during the Spanish
American war.
