INCREASE REVENUE
OF FARM FLOCK
Prices of farm eggs as well as of
live and dressed poultry are us-
unlly highest during rail and the
early winter months, ProtltH fr6m
Cie furm flock can be materially
Increased by taking advantage of
this market situation In handling
tho tlook, says the United Slates
Department of Agriculture. Timing
production to the market domand
can be accomplished best by batch
ing early and by having eurly ma
turing strains. .
Most ot the revenue from the
farm flock Is obtained from eggs.
It la Important therefore to devel
op the flock from good laying
strains. This requires careful se
lection of hens that mature early,
that lay best after they begin, thut
seldom no broody, und that lay
well throughout the lata summer
and fall.
The sire of the flock Is an Im
portant factor to consldor also.
aMIntalnlng about 20 Oor 400 birds
enables the flock to bo divided to
advantage for breeding purposes.
A flock of 200, tor instance, can
readily be divided Into two units
60 yearlings and 160 pullets: and
a flock of 400 Into 100 yearlings
nnd two units or ISO pullets each.
The pullets are used primarily for
egg production and the yearlings
for breeding purposes. Yenrllngs
are preferable to pullets as breed
ers because usually they lay larger
eggs which hatch Into bigger
cnicxs. .
Moreover, the yearling hens have
gone through a molt the preceding
tall, and thus have hud a rest
prior to the breeding season, and
for that reason they usually pro
duce stronger chicks than pullets
A still more Important reason for
using yearlings as breeders Is that
they should be only the best blrdB
ot the pullet flock of the ipreced
lng laying year, and the contlnu
ous selection from year to year
should assist greatly in Improving
the quality of the pullets raised
each year. Fanners should give at
tention to the selection, of their

Bob Fotherglll, pudgy outfielder
ot the Detroit Tigers, away to a
good start at the bat, cherishes de
signs on the American League swat
crown.
It Fotherglll should realize ' his
ambition and top the American
League batters, It would give the
Detroit club an outfield combina
tion without compare In the ma
jors.
Harry Hellmann has thrlco won
the batting honors. Last your
Heinle Manush won great fame by
topping the Johnsonian swatters.
Should Fotherglll come through, It
would give the Tigers an outfield
trio of battling champions.
Fotherglll has had a varied
career with the Detroit Tigers. De
spite the fact that he has consist
ently batted .300 In the majors and
minors, not until this season did
Bob definitely win for himself a
lob as a regular.
Fleet of foot, a brilliant fielder,
despite the 200 pounds he carries
and a .300 batter, he was not used
regularly by Ty Cobb for various
reasons. This season, the Job of

HE
Coming to Detroit after one year
In the minors, with Bloomlngton In
tho Three-Eye League, Fotherglll
was sent to Rochester In the Inter
national for development. Playing
under Irrepressible George mail
ings, Bob came fast and after swat
ting the pill for the gorgeous av
erage of ,383 In 1922, he was pro
nounced ready tor the majors.
Tho following season he was
used In 101 games by Detroit, and
batted .315, During 1924 he play
ed only 54 games and in 1925, Iobs
than halt the season, 71 contests.
Last year, duo to the fact that
Mnnagor Cobb was able to play
only about half time, Fotherglll
got his big opportunity to make
good and he more than delivered.
For a goodly part of last year
he led the American League In
bnttlng, a late Beason slump kill
ing his chances to win the cham
pionship. At that he finished a tie
for third with his teammate, Har
ry Hellmann, only 10 points away
from Heinle Manush, who won the
championship.
Prone to put on weight In the
winter, Fotherglll Is always 'the
life of the party during the spring
training trlns. He Is constantly
kidded by the rest ot the athletes
for tho many boura of extra work

"You boys do all your laughing
now, I'll do mine after the season
starts," was Bob's reply at San An
tonio this spring.
"Fifty times for you around the
ball park, Fotherglll, and then you
can call It a day."
Starting where he left off last
fall, Fotherglll's hitting has been
one of the early season sensation!
of major league play. In the west
versus west series between the
American League clubs, he batted
.500. 1 ...... .. .. .
"It I can Just. lead the league
this year, I will have plenty to say
to Hellmann and Manush about the
art of batting next spring," Is the
way Fotherglll puts It.
Right now he Is a hot favorite
to come through.
Fotherglll, a righl-hsnded batter
has a rather peculiar crouch style
at the plats and like most great
hitters has a tendency to look bad
on a certain style pitched ball, on
ly lo come back and hit the next
ball, pitched the same way, out ot
the ball park. While he takes a
good swing at the ball. It Is not
nearly so healthy a cut aa that of
Babe Ruth, there being more' ot
wrist-snap to his style.
