FOR EGG
PRODUCERS

Whether to keep over old hens
for another year is a question that
those who raise chickens must face
up to every year. So here are a
few facts based on research
around the country that may help
you in making your decision.
First, keep in mind that pullets
lay from 20 to 40 percent more
eggs the first year than they do
during the next. Pullets also lay
more high quality eggs than old
hens. AS the hen gets older both
the interior and exterior quality
of her eggs get poorer. One re-
suit of this is more broken eggs
in the nest and the need for extra
handling.
Another point worth noting is
that as hens become older they
require more feed to produce a
dozen eggs. Then there is the
melting season to consider when
old hens ordinarily do not lay
eggs. In fact, some poultrymer

BEEF CATTLE IMPROVEMENT
THROUGH PERFORMANCE
TESTING

&40
A technique which many live
stock producers are now putting
INTO practice to improve the pro-
duction of their herds or flocks
is Performance Testing. In many
areas of the county it is becom-
ing a common practice with beef
cattle and is just getting started
in the sheep industry.
Performance testing of beef cattle
is based mainly on research work
which has been conducted over a
period of years at the u. S. Range
Livestock Experiment Station at
Miles City. Research workers at
the Miles City Station have found
that several important character
istics are highly Unbeatable and
can be quite accurately measured.
AS a result of this work, many
rancherS are now culling their
herds on the basis of records OBJ
tanned, along with the old, estab-
lished visual appraisal method.
Also, many feeders are starting to
purchase feeder calves on the
basis of performance records.
Four purebred breeders in the
Sidney area are now carrying on
performance testing under the
supervision of the Montana Beef
Cattle Performance Registry
association. "A few purebred and
officially weighed to obtain their
gain index by the Extension Agent
who serves as fieldman for the
Association. A few purebred and
commercial producers in the coun-
ty are carrying out performance
testing work on their own.
For more information on the
subject, we suggest you pick up a
copy of Montana Extension Ser
vice Circulars 267 and 264 en-
titled BIGGER, BETTER, MORE
CALVES and WHAT IS AN I.R.P

these circulars available here al

FOOT ROT PROBLEMS
A malady which often con.

stock producers this time of the

Stern Response
BY the Associated Press

The United States yesterday
denounced Soviet Premier 7
Khrushchev's latest message
on Cuba as "a distortion of the
basic concepts of the rights
of man"
The United States response
was issued by the State De-
partment with President Ken
.nedy'S approval. With a cry of
"gangSterism," Mr.. Khrushchev
had sought to hold the United
States directly responsible for
last weeks invasion of Cuba
by anti-Castro forces.
The United States statement
said Mr.. Kennedy would not
be drawn into an extended pub
lie debate with Mr.. Khru-
shchev. At the same time. the
statement outlined what it
said was the American concept
of freedom.
The people of the United
States believe" the statement
said, That the right of self
determination is fundamental
and should apply throughout
| the world"
Called POlemical
Where Communism is in
power, the statement said,
freedoms cease to exist land

are mercilessly repreSsed."
Mr.. Khrushchev'S letter was
described as "polemical." A
dictionary definition of "polem-
ical" is addicted to controversy.
