Here is how she did it:
, "When I joined the Fernwood Poul
try Club in March, 1919, I decided to
take Division II, so I bought two set
tings of White Wyandotte eggs from
my mother at $2.00 per setting. I
worked, taking care of her chickens at
ten cents per hour to pay for them.
I borrowed two broody hens from my
mother to set, but just before the
time they would hatch I had to let
her have one of her hens back because
she sent to Canada and got a setting
of eggs from the hens that won the
I All-Northwest egg-laying contest in
1919, and she wanted a hen to put
them under.
"Well, I persuaded another hen to
take her place, but she was too heavy
and she broke all of the eggs but
eight, so I did not have very good
luck hatching chicks.
"Altogether 1 hatched IS chicks.
One was a cripple and soon died, but
that was the only one I lost till they
were about half grown and then one
of my finest pullets got fftst under
L the lien-house and died. Then another
one died with the roup.
"I sold four roosters as broilers
which brought me $2.60, and I donat
ed two more for our Club picnic din
ner. I have seven pullets and two
roosters left. My expense and labor,
came to $10.20.
"I won first prize at tho Clackamas
County Fair and also won first prize in
Division II at the Sta'te Fair. That
means a two weeks trip to the Sum
mer School at the Oregon Agricultural
College for me next summer. I like
poultry raising so well that I am tak
ing Division I this year. I have six of
my pullets in. this project and they
average 30 eggs per week now.
"I am going to make them do bet
ter than that when spring comes. Of
course, one cannot always win first
pirze but I am going to do my best
to 'make the best better." Ex. Ser.
