Into three simple rules rirst hatch the chicken early second keep them growing so the pullet will come to lay Ing maturity In October or by November Novem-ber third keep them laving by good food and care When I ay hatch the chickens early I do not mean too early because It hatched too early and go to laying In August and Seplcmbci they will usually moult In December Just us the weather Is I becoming very cold and 1 goodby eggs from then till spring for the heavier varieties such as trauma and Cochins the middle of March Is I none too early Plymouth rock and Wyandottea vve would hatch the first halt of April It possible It not April will do Tho Spanish Minorca leghorns and Hamburg should > > e tSe hatched In May for best results Set three or more hen nl n lime and once I week dust them well with Insect powder pow-der and when the chicks hatch give them to two or more mothers I gave as our first rule forgetting a good profit from poultry to batch jour chickens early Kqually Important la I the ace and keep them growing so they will come to laying maturity by November Aral The food and care has much loIn t lo-In i with the chicken crowing Now for the first SI hours do not feed ho chicks for they need no food during dur-ing this time nature baa provided for hat by abaorbtlon of eggyolk Into their little abdomens and It la necca ary Idle absorbed eggyolk be digested Much damage la done and many chick lives are lost by disregarding thla rule lomo people In their haste to get the chicks growing hurry food Into their crops before the system baa toned up to take caro of It and the consequence Is i the bowel ore conceited and the chick goat over to the majority Feed ofteu but little at a time every 2 hour My five time A day until the chicks are five weeks old and tee that no food Ia I left landing In the tun to sour atter they have eaten Itemove It all nothing noth-ing cant s more bowel looseness and dysentery than sour food The best food for the first fire week la I composed of onethird Ml meal one third cornmeal corn-meal and onethird wheat bran odd a pinch of tall moisten with sweet milk or water warm It In cold weather and twice A week add some bone meal Keep coarse Mild by the coop at all times dont think the chick can find l this themselves that la I one of the commonest mistake In rearing chicken chick-en after they are five weeks old you can leave out the oat meal and feed three or four times a day When ten week old nt noon scatter wheal and cracked corn In litter such aa leave and cut draw so they will have to work for It but not too much corn aa It makes them too fat Green food must be supplied If the I chicks are cooped t 3 up on fresh gra this problem Is solved and they will help themselves to what they need If however they are confined con-fined In n small yard finely cut crass lettuce or onion tops will make a good substitute Fresh cool later must ho kept accessible so a drink can be taken when wanted Sell tho cockcrella when they
