EOM EARLIER HATCHED CHICKS FAVORED Good Business to Have Good Laying Flock in Summer. By hatching a part of the poultry flock between January 15 and February 15. so tliat the. birds will mature In July, the poultryman takes a big step toward maintaining his late summer and early fall production, advises R. R. Hannas, poultry research specialist, in the New Jersey Agriculture. Mr. Hannas points out that the price of eggs begins to climb as the summer wanes and that it is goo<i busL tiess t<> have a flock of layers at this time. Ordinarily a decline in production takes place with the old fowls about July. If one-quarter to onetbird of the flock is hatched between the middle of January and the middle of February the poultry keeper can oil’set this decrease. TJie article goes on to say that brooding of chicks early in the'season ; i has been carried on successfttHy for y a number of years. Chicks thus produced will reach a. good growth and development before hot weatlmr comes on. thereby giving them an advantage over later batched stock. One precaution, to prevent leg weakness, is advised. Because bad weather is likely to make it unsafe to let the chi'-ks out on the ground and there is a lack of green food at this, time, cod liver oil and sprouted oats should be-supplied. The oil is given at the rate of 2 per cent either of the amount of grain or of the amount of inash fed. Experience has shown -that it is easier to mix it into the grain, amt that however used, it is highly effective in preventing leg weakness. The writer concludes wTtli the suggestion tliat the earlier balching enables tl'e general farmer to get this phase of his work out of the way before the heavy rush of spring arrives. Crowded Conditions in Many Poultry Houses A recent survey of a number of farms shows crowded conditions in the poultry houses. Many of these houses are almost wholly lacking in ventilation. At night when one of these buildings is crowdeil with chickens the air is not tit to breathe. A human being Av.ill. not remain long in such a place. If'he did remain throughout the night, he would be “all in" by nrorninji And tills is just the trouble with a lot of cliickens now. The chickens are badly crowded at night in a poorly-ventilated house. They are forced to breathe bad air. They become too warm. They are “all in” in the morning, and emerging into the cool outside air is a sudden change that many of them cannot withstand. These crowded conditions at night ami sudden changes from warm to cool air are responsible for many of our poultry ills. Giving the chickens medicine will not do any permanent good <o long as the cause of the-trouble remains. unchanged. Either additional room should be provided or the size of i the flock reiluced. Crooked Breast Bones Found in Chickens Crooked breast bones may be caused by inbreeding and general debility, or may come frotu improper food and. feeding, or poor .management of some kind, writes Michael K. Boyer in the Farm and Ranch. There is no ques- f lion about heredity being the fault, at least to a certain extent. That beijig ' the fact, it should be bred out. which might be done bv the selection of only straight breast-bone fowls for the breeding pen. • 5 Luck of bone-making material in the feed of growing stock, which is the prime cause of leg weakness, has also the effect of producing crooked breast i bones in young chickens. ; There used to be a theory, which by many still is believed, that very early ; roosting of growing birds causes the soft breast bones to berfd. This might be so in some instances, but does not hold good with the general run of stock. Buying Pullets *■ i Buying pullets by weight may be more satisfactory than buying entirely by age. April hatched pullets on in sufficient rations may be of less value than May hatched pullets which have been properly fed and brooded. A May I pullet is much better than a May 30 pullet if the conditions have been, equal. The later hatched chick has • I missed four tine weeks for the de- . velopment of poultry meat, hut tiie name of the month is n<?b fully descriptive of quality. Culling Farm Flock There are two essentials in culling farm poultry., r First, to get rid of hens that are not laying. anU second, to distinguish between the hens that have been good producers and those that have not lay.l enough to pay for their feed. Culling should start in late May or June and continue throughout the year at regular inter--1 vals. Eliminating the hens as they become unprofitable saves feed and ! labor and improves the conditions for those that are laying. Egg Marketing Egg marketing is the subject of a revised bulletin just issued by the United States Department of Agrii culture. This publication emphasizes , the fragile, delicate nature of the egg as a food product and the need for i proper handling and speed of delivery to insure the consumer the best possible quality.
