' ' Production of Eggs Is Where Most Profit Made Probably the greatest hindrance to the profitable keeping of poultry on the ordinary farm la the retention of a lot of fowl that are poor layers, due either to their being too old or of a type to produce meat rather than eggs. The production of eggs la the end of the poultry business in which the roost profit can be made, oo that a heavy egg producing type is best suited to ordinary farm conditions. Generally speaking, the pullet year la the most profitable period of a bens life. It Is advisable, therefore, either to mark the chicks when batched, using a different mark for each year, or to band the pullets when they are put Into winter quarters, so that at culling time the age of the different birds can be seen at a glance and only those that are required for breeding purposes retained after the first years production.
