CULL CHICKEN FLOCK EARLY

Every Breeder Seems Anxious to Realize on Fowls and Get Back Some of Money Invested. The advice to cull early seems unnecessary this year, when every breeder Is anxious to realize on his flock and get back some of the money he has been puttlug into chickens. For the home flock, one wants early cockerels, but If the trade in cockerejs is for low-priced birds only, it will not be profitable to keep the early hatched males for the trade. * • « Keep ail pullets save the deformed. , An early hatched pullet, with all the disqualifications mentioned In the standard, may be the most profitable bird on the place as ao early layer. She can be culled before the eggs are Seeded for hatching, but will pay fop her feed until then.
