Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 164, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 July 1918 — KEEP PULLETS GROWING [ARTICLE]

KEEP PULLETS GROWING

For every day that your pullets fail to lay after they cease growing you are pocketing a loss. Laying is retarded by any check to growth at any period from hatching to maturity. Laying is retarded by seemingly trivial disturbances, like moving from place to place and radical changes in rations. In order to be sure of early eggs—eggs laid at a time when prices are high and eggs scarce —see to it that the growth of your pullets is not retarded, and that they are never annoyed or flustered unnecessarily.
