WINTER CONDITIONS

In the spring the production of eggs on the farm is an, easy matter. Fowls which are at liberty to roam find an abundance ofgreen and animat feed o'fi their range, which with grain furnishes a perfect ration for laying hens. In addition to this they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. There is a valuable lesson here that every poultry keeper can learn from nature. So far as lies within his power the poultryman should aim to make winter conditions springlike.
