Board traced all the chicks which
were on that particular train that
particular day, he found shipment
of very badly diseased chicks from a
far eastern hatchery. 1t could have
been the fault of the eastern hatch
cry or it could have been from a
contaminated express car.
You are certainly the gamer if
you can go directly to the hatchery
and pick up your chicks. Not only
do you avoid any disease risk but
you will also get chicks which will
make greater gains during the first
weeks of their life. Every hour that
a chick is on the road without feed,
the body shrinks. After "a hours the
shrink is so great that it may actually
be future detriment to the chick
and to the laying hen when she
grows to maturity.

very glad to supply them with the
survey sheets.
There is nothing complicated about
these sheets. The poultryman is
merely asked to indicate where the
chicks were purchased and the date.
From this data we can determine
how far these chicks had to travel,
whether many changes on trains had
to be made and whether the hatch
eryman was cooperating with the
National Plan or not.
Also the chick purchaser reports
how many chicks were dead in the
boxes on arrival and how many died
during the first 81 days. Also we
ask what sort of brooder was used,
the size of brooder house and the
brooding equipment and the type of
feeding followed.

any rate we are including table VII

Other factors were studied, but
the above should give the 1854 chick
purchaser something to think about.
Further should anyone wish copy
of the complete survey, it can be had
for the asking as long as our supply
lasts.
Also we are going on with the
study again this year. So far we
have about dozen counties signify

survey. But this does not preclude
individuals from cooperating. Should

Answer Is yes

O. Can birds get Newcastle dis
ease during shipment? If SO would
il not be better 10 get chicks from
a hatchery near enough for us to
pick them up right at the hatchery?
-H.A.C.. Saltwater County.
A. Yes, birds can pick up air born
diseases enroute. I have in mind a
case where chicks were shipped from
one of our good hatcheries in this
state which has never had a case OF
Newcastle Disease on its premises,
but after the chicks had been on a
main line train only two hours, they
arrived at their destination with
Newcastle disease. The chicks came
down with the trouble within few
days and the loss was 80 per cent.

Be Glad to Swap
Feathers for Eggs
By III. E. CUSHMAN

O. / am having trouble with
chickens losing feathers in jan
uarY. Before housing this years
pullets. (55 Austria Whitesl we
cleaned house thoroughlY-oiledi If.
used DOT. Black Leaf 40 on roosts
and lime all through. used saw dust
on the floor and in nests. Now
pullets are losing feathers. Some
are already rather bare from rear
view. am getting good production
but sure disguised with naked
chickens. Can you tell me the cause
and what 10 do 10 remedy IT? Can
see no lice.-Mrs. N. W.. Sanders
County.
A. The answer is that your birds
are laying too much to keep up both
feathers and eggs. And the remedy
is to change feed so that they quit
laying and go to growing feathers.
In other words, most heavy pro-
ducers are not much for looks. All
birds constantly use some of the oil
and fats from their ration as well
as protein to keep the feathers
smooth and glossy. But if they are
daily laying an egg this material
goes into egg whites and yolks.
If your birds are in perfect health,
you will just have to develop new
aesthetic values and remark how
well your birds look and be happy
with a full egg basket. No doubt the
milk in addition to the laying pellets
is what is giving the heavy produc-
ton and is really forcing the birds.
Their laying period may be short
ened, but if they are in good health
and not losing weight you will no
doubt make more money at the end
of the year, since it is the fall and
early winter eggs that bring in the
most profit. Bear backs, bald heads
and naked abdomens are quite the
rule in heavy producing flocks.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1954-02-15
Profit i'm Pullets

q. Before ordering chicks for the
coming year I would like TO know
whether ought 10 keep any of the
old hens over or whether I should
plan on an all-pullet flock. Some
people tell me that il is cheaper 10
order chicks only every other year.
Mrs. D. M. c.. Custer County
A. Some of your old birds may be
worthy of being kept second year.
But you will find that not more than
Is per cent will qualify. AS a rule
the all-pullet flock returns the great
est profit. Never keep the whole
flock over for a second year. In our
record keeping project we usually
find that the profit per bird is in di-
rect proportion to the per cent of
pullets present. For example last
year the following figures showed
up:
No Flocks % Pul1ets Labor Income
100 $467
8 rs to 100 400
so o75 1892
Z under so 3.88
You might just as well do a good
job of culling and make dollar
more per bird year.

Furthermore, the British are not
satisfied with the motives and
forces behind the Cypriot demand
for union with Greece. Why is it
being advocated 80 strongly by the
Communists in Cyprus?
Archbishop Makarios said he did
not recognize the Communist
Party in Cyprus as such.
He declared: eve are members
of the western world, and we are
interested in it's defense"
But the British still don't be-
lieve in hurrying these matters.
In their support they have the
Turkish minority in Cyprus who
want the island to stay under Brit
ish rule. London has offered Cy-
prus a new constitution which the
Cypriots have turned down.
Most likely chance of a solution
seemed to be given in a hin,

ourselves upon others who have
the same right as we to choose
their friends and associates. Given

ment, the Negro can set about the

spect and goodwill that is due

Phillips calls upon those respon-
sible "for the ALLEGATION of educa-

pie | would say: Use the better tool
which is about to be placed in your
hands to earn for yourselves the
contentment and fulness Of life
that is open to every American who
is willing.
$50 long as the Negro is given
