In order to cure troubles of the dtgee

Many egg that are laid In the lute

For thla reason It la advisable to eet

egga being easier to teat than thoae

In thla way It la often possible to
put all the egga that acveral bene origi

beua and reset the others. For ex

At the end of seven days we Ond on

POULTRY NEEDS RANGE.
Hens Keep Thrifty and Predue Mere
Egg In Outalde Yard.
Sluce bene on range produce more
egg at lower coat and fewer young
hens die than do those kept In con
finement tbe Ohio experiment station
urges poultrymcu to provide outalde
yarda with plenty of green feed for lay
ing beua. The annual value per acre
of rang for laying bena waa found to.
be from $10 to $31, even though aome
other live stock waa also pastured In tbe
blue grass pasture with the chicken.
Three experiments. were conducted by
tbe experiment station to determine
whether hens need rang for beat re
sult lu egg production, on lasting a
year, on two year and tb third near
ly two year aud a half. From the
teata It waa found that during tb first
two or three year mor beua are likely
to die If kept In restricted quarter,
and tb hen on rang produced ID to
44 per cent mor,gg at.a feed cost of
10 to 80 per ceut leas per doaen than
