Do you keep poultry, or does
your poultry keep you?
Do you keep poultry for eggs
alone, or do you also desire semi
occasionally to enjoy that real
feast A splendid chicken dinner?
Do you want the greatest pos

number of eggs at the right sea

high, combined with an abundance
of splendid meat?
Do you really enjoy broilers.

over again and ponder them
thoughtfully. Don't think that all
chicken meat is alike. Please
don't think that because you have
always enjoyed chicken dinners in
the past, that they can be no bet
ter until you have tried WHITE
ORPINGTON!
The White Orpington is the best
winter layer amongst the large
breeds and varieties, as well as
the table fowl par excellence.
Beautiful of color, their white
plumage makes a delightful con
trast with the green grass. There
is no prettier sight than a flock
of these massive, stately, snow
white birds scattered over a green
lawn or foraging through a road
side meadow.
In the show room, a pen of
these birds with their stately ap
pearance, their well rounded
curves, their bright red combs and
wattles, their long, broad backs
rising with a, smooth, graceful
sweep to the broad, well spread
tail, never fails to attract the eye
and captivate the beauty loving
soul of the visitors.
But it is not alone as an exhi
bition fowl that this variety shines
-a bird may be beautiful to look
upon, but unless it is useful as
well, there is no long continued
demand for it amongst the rank
and file of the ranch flocks and
from the thousands of back lot
ters. The White Orpington reigns su
preme as the great utility fowl,
not alone for the backyard poul
tryman with small confined quar
ters, but for the ranchman as well
with his extensive range. Tame
and docile, they can easily be con
fined with a four foot fence, yet
given free range they are excel
lent foragers.
But when it comes to filling the
,egg basket during the winter
months, when the mercury nas
droped through the bottom of the
thermometer, and some of the
lighter feathered varieties are tak
ing a vacation then the White
Orpington is strictly on the Job;
then they do not take a back seat
for any breed or variety.
The hen that will lay when
EGGS ARE HIGH is surely the
hen to buy. Some others of the
small breeds may and do have a
higher yearly record, but what
about the comparative value of
eggs laid in December. January
and February with those laid in
the late spring and early summer
when anything and everything is
laying from a feather duster to a
mud turtle?
These statements are not mere
ly pleasing fancies or idle dreams,
but rest on a solid, substantial
basis of facts as proven by. records
of our own All-Northwest Egg
Laying Contest with which many
of my readers are familiar. For
four out of five Decembers during
which this contest was held, it was
a White Orpington pullet bred in
Montana that led the Honor Roll
of this contest during this month
of highest priced eggs. On one of
these occasions, two White Orp
ington pullets from the same pen
were tied for first honors; thus
giving our Treasure State flock
the unique honor of producing
Tive December All-Northern Con
test leaders in five years. In the
year when these White Orping
tons failed to head the roll in De
cember, the pen of five birds of
this strain led the contest as a
pen for February with a record of
117 eggs, the official high record
for the month and it. wasn't
Leap Year either.
These same utility winners like
wise have the quality to win in
the showroom as well, usually
demonstrating it by winning at
the Montana state show in Sepr
tember before taking up the bur
den of production in the Laying
Contest In November.
" Last December, pullet 705 led
the contest for he month with an
official record of 30 eggs. In Jan
uary at the state show at Great
Falls a full brother won first as
cockerel, repeating the winning
the following week at Spokane.
This pen was on the honor roll

ARTIFICIAL LIGHT
HI

OUTWITS THE
CI DO THE THICK
A western senator once jocosely
suggested crossing noney bees
with lightning bugs in order that
the bes might carry on their
laudible iadustryby night. Later
someone, thinking to turn a trick
in humor, suggested kidding hens
into extra effort by confining
them in a dark room and alter
nately taming on and off the
light. Unwittingly the latter was
a prophet.
In many a poultry house today
the homely hen is really laying
more eggs, especially in winter,
because of artificial illumination.
The experience of Peter Rauch. of
Hamburg. N. Y-. is typical of that
of many progressive poultrymen.
and indicates that the more near
ly summer conditions are simu
lated in winter time in the poul
try house, the more nearly will
hens approach their summer lay
ing records. Mr. Ranch installed
accetylene lighting in his hen
house more than two years ago.
Toward the close of the first win
ter he wrote:
"When we began using accety
lene lighting we were getting 8
to 10 eggs a day from 200 hens.
The lights were turned on each
morning from S o'clock to day
light and from dark up to about
8:30. thus giving the hens the
same hours to work in as the sum
mer months. After using the
lights one week our hens laid 40
eggs each day. The second week
they were laying 20 eggs each
day. and at the end of the third
week we were getting 100 egg"
each day from 200 hens, which
Is a big yield for the winter
months, when other people who
have no lights in their ben houses
are getting no eggs at alL From
January 1. to February 26. we
sold $24.78 worth of egga irom
the hens."
Acetylene, gas or electricity Is
adapted to use In the poultry
house, as the light provided is the
nearest approach to sunlight that
is known. On farms that are
enuinoed with accetylene or elec
trie generators for home lighting
and cooking It is a simple matter
to extend the fixtures to serve the
hen house: but it is not necessary
to do this. Any poultry yard
whether near a generator or not.
can cheaply install lights by mere
ly attaching a burner to a tank of
dissolved accetylene. such as Is
used extensively la motorcycle.
motor truck and tractor lighting.
Usually one or two lights are all
that are needed and a single Prest
O-Lite small tank will supply gas
for such an installation a month
The initial Investment for tank
and .burners is small and there are
scrvjee ' stations in every small
town where empty tanks can be
exchanged for foil ones by merely
paying the charge for the gas. The
Prest-O-Lite tank complies with
all the requirements of the Na
tional Board of Underwriters, and
may be safely installed on Insured
premises, where electric or other
lighting systems are not available.

practically continuously until the
Contest was brought to an un
timely end by a disastrous cyclone
which destroyed athe Contest
buildings, injured two of the at
tendants and killed many of the
entries. Two of this pen were re
turned to the owner and entered
at the last state fair at Helena,
where 703 won first and 704 was
second prize hen. The former had
the great honor later of being giv
en the coveted purple as sweep
stakes hen of the entire show.
Utility and beauty combined,
surely.
Some small breeders and back
lotters do not care to use incuba
tors to do their hatching, but pre
fer the good old fashioned way.
They want a winter layer, not one
that waits until late spring to lay
and early summer to set.- There
are, breeds that are equally good
setters, but should you not want
to -use them for that purpose they
are hard to break cp, In fact, we
have some kinds that the only
sure cure we found was the axe.
With the Orpington, however, we
frequently find that merely
changing from one pen to another
is sufficient.
I also like the WHITE Orping
ton above the other varieties not
only because It is the most popu
lar color in all the breeds, but be
cause it also holds up well dur
ing the entire season, and does
not. show the washed out. faded
appearance that the colored birds
do; then they dress out better for
the market than do the colored
chickens. I will admit that a col
ored pin ieatner tastes Just as
sweet as a white one. but fortu
nately. or unfortunately, our per
sonal preferences cut no figure
with the consuming public, who
. when given the chance invariably
pick out the white carcass. Last,
but not least, if Laying ' Contest
records are any criterion, there is
a color line In egg production.
Take np the first record available
and yon will almost invariably
find that the white varieties in
each breed are leading. No mat
ter whether it is the WHITE Leg
horn. WHITE Rock. WHITE Wy
andotte. Rhode Island WHITE, or
the WHITE Orpington, and so in
summing up: No matter tor what
purpose you want a chicken.' I
can't see where yon can improve
upon the present day WHITE
ORPINGTON." I do not think
any breed or variety excels the
WHITE ORPINOTON In combin
ing these three values: BEAUTY,
EGGS and MEAT.
