Poultry keepers should cult out all the ?'bourderw or nonproduclng hens together with those pullets that are, weak and do not show desiruble qualities. qual-ities. "In this way," says A. G. Oliver, poultry specialist at the North Carolina Caro-lina state college, "the producer gets a much higher price for his srriek than ir; possible later on In the year when the market is glutted, and In addition, addi-tion, a large amount of feed Is saved." By going through the flock every week or two after the first of June, the owner can easily pick out the cull hens and market them In an orderly way. This process should be followed from the first of June until the first cf October.. , Mr. Oliver states that the culling done through the summer months Is different from that done in October and November. The first Is to remove the poor individuals, while that done in the fall Is to select the best hens for Hock Improvement. As Ions as a flock Is giving 50 per cent production, It Is a waste of time to go ovar the birds but as soon as the production drops to 20 or m per cent, culling should begin, 'l lie farm er will know how many well developed and desirable early-hatched pullets he has. The low-producing lien or the lMilersized nullet should be taken from the flock and sold. Those hens that lay only four to six months should be disposed of first and the others gradually culled out until only those that lay eight or nine months are left, he states. Encourage Chicks to Roost at Early Age Chicks should be encouraged to roost as soon as well feathered, according ac-cording to- Stephen M. Walford, Purdue Pur-due university. Early roosting will do much to prevent pre-vent smothering and crowding in the corners of the house, which also stunts the growth of birds that do not die In the huddle. If heavy breeds of chicks do not take quicklj to the new custom they may be compelled to use roosts by putting In slanting roosts which have chicken netting, preventing their getting get-ting on the floor of the corners. After chicks have become accustomed accus-tomed to roosting they can be raised to the customary height or a couple of feet above the floor. Confining Hens Found to Be Most Profitable Farmers who have changed their floclts of hens from ranging on the farm at large to a smaller area that can be fenced against other poultry mid animals, have found that their hens laid more eggs and had less disease, dis-ease, as the ground was free from worms and disease in the beginning. The reason for this is that generally hens in smaller yards are fed more carefully than wl.en running at large. Then, too, a new lot can be provided each year or each six months, which keeps the hens away from worms and diseases to a great extent. . Baby chicks should be handled in similar manner. Poultry Hints . While some men overfeed, the common com-mon mistake is to feed too little. Feed 20 to 40 pounds of dried skim roOk to 100 pounds of mash if coccl-diosis coccl-diosis appears. Intelligent marketing Is doing much toward making turkey growing more profitable and successful. To buy more than four chicks for every square foot of brooder house , space Is a risky Investment All mature poultry should be confined con-fined to a limited area and not allowed to range with the young stock. It Is better to make a reasonable proSt on 100 chickens than It la to lose money, or break even, on 200 or 300. All Leghorns lay white eggs. The appearance of a few light-brown eggs in Leghorn flocks means the outcropping outcrop-ping of other blood which may have come from an accidental mating several sev-eral generations before. There Is . tendency to creamy white shells In some Leghorns, which can be largely eliminated by setting only pure-white pure-white eggs. Cod liver oil should be omitted from the ration fed broilers for two weeks before marketing as otherwise the flesh will have a fishy taste.

The eyes are Inflamed and watery and the sheep may have difficulty in breathing and loss of appetite. In severe cases, pneumonia may develop, followed by exhaustion and death. For treatment provide the sick sheep with a clean shelter, free from drafts, and bedded deeply with dry straw. Very weak animals may be given giv-en a dose of strong black coffee as a stimulant Bathe the eyes and rash out the nose with a solution of boric acid which may be made by dissolving about a tablespoonful of powdered boric add in two quarts of warm water. wa-ter. If a nose syringe or spray Is available, the boric acid solution, or one containing camphor or oil of eucalyptus, euca-lyptus, may be sprayed directly Into the nostrils. The inhalation of various vari-ous fumes commonly recommended for treatment of similar conditions In man are not satisfactory. Good care, clean forage that Is free from dust plenty of water, and attentive atten-tive nursing will usually effect a cure, according to Doctor Billings, who says the shepherd will have to be patient and repeat the eye bathing and nostril nos-tril washing at least once a day until the cure Is complete. Pastures and Roughages . Are Most Economical The liberal use of pastures and roughages rough-ages has cut the cost of keeping work horses materially on Webster county, Iowa, farms, according to Iowa State college at Ames. Farmers who fed horses largely on grass and roughages had feed bills of $45 or less while farmers who saved the pasture and bay and fed mostly grain had feed bills of considerably more, one amounting amount-ing to $90. These figures were gathered gath-ered from records of farm account keepers. The lowest average cost ot keeping horses was $33 but In this case a tractor and a truck did most of the heavy work. The four farmers who kept tl)8 feed costs down lowest averaged aver-aged $20 grain, $4 worth of hay, $lt for pasture, and allowed the horses free access to the straw pile. The four farmers who had the highest average costs, fed $54 worth of grain, $18 for hay and $4 for pasture, with only a limited amount of straw. The grain ration on the farms having hav-ing the lowest cost consisted of three-fourths three-fourths corn and one-fourth oats while on the high cost farms the ration was two-fifths corn and three-fifths oats. The first group of farmers turned their horses on pasture at night and when they were not working; they fed straw Instead of hay and roughed them on cornstalks. The latter group kept the horses In the barn and fed oats except tiben it was certain the horses would be on pasture for a long period. rxxj-ooooooooooooooooooooooo- .
