Care should be taken to save for settings only the eggs from the best A very great difference can hens. be made in a flock In a few seasons by the selection of the eggs for hatching. By choosing the largest eggs the fowls will be much larger in size, but there Is a great probability that they will not be good layers. The hen that lays an unusually large egg is quite likely to lay only every other day. By setting her eggs and again the next season setting the largest eggs, you will develop a strain of large fowls that will lay very large eggs, but will lay only every other day, or even less. On the other hand. If you set the eggs from the hens, that as pullets laid during their first fall and wlu-teand continue to set eggs from such hens, you will develop a strain of early winter layers. The eggs for settings should be from year old hens, as the chicks will be larger and stronger than those from pullet eggs. It is best to mate . Elias Morris & Sons Co. J W. So. T.oplt St.. Salt UW.

C. Graham of the MaBsachusetti Agricultural college. A dry niaBh il kept In hoppers before the hens at all times and a scratch feed la fed night and morning. The dry mash it composed of equal parts bran, wheal middlings, corn meul. finely ground oats, ground alfalfa and beef scraps, and the scratch feed of two parta cracked corn, one part wheat and one part oats, says the Farm and Home. The scratch feed is varied, depend ing somewhat upon the condition ol the hens. If on examination they ar found too fut more oats and wheat and less corn are fed. Sometimes we feed three parts of corn to two parti of wheat at night and oats In th morning. At certalu seasons of the year mor grain is fed at ulght In the litter than the bens will eat, so there will be some left for them to work on early the next morning. This Is found to bo a very satisfactory method. At timer oats are fed alone, for when the tbrv are mixed together the wheat aud corn are picked up first and the hens thut eat the fastest get very little ol the oats. It it is desired to force the hens, in addition to the dry mash and grain. moisten some of the mash, getting 11 to a crumbly state and placing It In troughs, what they will eat In 15 minutes. This is fed at night. Fresh water, oyster shell and grit are kept before the bens. Mangels and cab bages are fed whole every day when possible, but at least three times a week.
