J. E. Stewart & Co. Breeder Encouraged te Develop r locks Along Breeding Lines for Good Production. . (Prepared by the I'tilted Sutra Depart mrm or Agriculture.) A hen. In order to be classed en fenulnely gid on, should be equally capahle of going In the show ringeind taking a rlbhoD or of going on the yard and making a record a a laver. And the breeder. In order to get the advan tage of the best and broadest must breed for a combination of mil Ity and standard quality Instead of lotiowing the tendency to become either a fancier or a utility breeder. i nai is tne advice of Rob B. Slorum. a poultry specialist of the United States department of agriculture, and It I based largely on results obtained on the poultry farm of the department at Beltsvllle. Md., where many of the ex hlbltlon males used have 200-egg pro duction In their pedigrees. "Except In a few more or less Iso lated cases." says Mr. Slocura. "there to nothing In the standard require, ments directly opposed to utility, and the buyers during the past few years hare shown an Increasingly Insistent demand for fowls that have egg-producing ability back of them." Fanciers, Mr. Slocum point out, sre too prone to put the appearance of the fowl above everything else, and thu to neglect the egg-laying quality, while, oo the other hand, unsuccessful fan cier are likely to turn completely to the egg-production side of breeding without any attention to "points." ssqsbbbbsOBSbV m of Edith means deed. I Quality and Utility Are Combined in This White Plymouth Rock Hen of the Flock on the Government Farm at Beltsvllle, Md. Though of a Fam ily of Show Birds, She Has Made a Good Record as a Layer. Either of these altitudes, he hh i. uiru I an obstruction to the best development of poultry raising In the United Stntes. i "The department of agriculture," he ; continues, "encourages poultry breed ers to develop flocks along breeding I lines to secure a combination of good production, vigor, and uniform type. That goal Is readily attainable through j careful selection of breeding stock, and j those who follow the policy suggested may confidently expect the most at- tractive markets." j GRIT IS POULTRY ESSENTIAL! I Material Takes Place of Teeth in Pre paring Food for Digestion Part of Feed. Gilt Is essential to the health of the fowls and to economy in feeding. Grit takes the place of teeth in preparing the feed for further digestion, and Is required for the proper preparation of feed in the gizzard. When the feed Is not properly taken care of In this or gan, an undue strain Is thrown on the fowl's system, often resulting In dis ease, and also allowing much of the nutriment to pass through the bird's body without being absorbed. In every pen or yard a box of grit should be kept. Investigators have asserted that grit is a part of the necessary feed, giving the fowls strong bones and a blight plumage. TO CURE EGS-EATING HABIT i If Fowls Have Ample Supply of Oys-' ter Shell and Are Kept Busy I Habit Won't Develop. , Egg eating Is a product of Idleness. I If the fowls have plenty of oyster shell and are kept busy, this habit will not : develop. Where it uppears, All an j empty eggshell with a stiff paste form-1 ed by a mixture of three parts of corn- j meal and one part of cayenne pepper ; and place It In one of the nests. If this j is attended to promptly the egg eating i win stop at once. If the habit be comes well developed It may be neces sary to repeat the die several times, but In connection wltb plerty of exer cise for the fowls and darkened nests, it never falls to effect a cure. POULTRY NOTES I - A :xxoio;;2 Do not pack eggs that are cracked, for they will probably become broken before they reach the market and soil a number of o'her eggs.
