I f she Is expected to produce eggs In
p ro fita b le qu a ntitie s.
“ Eggs are high-priced In the w in te r
because so few fa rm hens are la yin g
a t th is season, says Or. B. F. Kaupp,
head o f the p o u ltry departm ent at
South C a rolin a S tate college. “ T he
tw o usual reasons fo r low egg produc­
tio n are found In the |x>or producing
pow er o f the hen and also because
site may not have the p ro p e r food
and care, i f the hen comes fro m t
high producing s tra iu and Is not lay
Ing us she should, it Is possible that
she may not have a co m fo rta ble house,
o r th u l she is not free o f purasites,
and does not have the rig h t kin d o f
feed and o ther care."
D o cto r Kaupp states th a t eggs are
low In price d u rin g the s p rin g m onths
because everybody's hens are la yin g
then.
Eggs alw ays go down in the
sp ring and the fu riu e ra ' org a n iza tio n s
should store eggs u t th a t season. In
the w in te r eggs go up to 75 re n ts and
$1 per dozen because the liens are not
la yin g Then the storage houses bring
out the cheap sp ring eggs to sell a t a
good p ro tit.
The p o u ltry d e partm ent has pre­
pared extension c irc u la rs 155, 156 and
158 w hich te ll how to p u t the fu rn i
flock on a paying basis. These b u l­
le tin s are free and w ill te ll how to
cu ll and feed the b irds fo r w in te r eggs
I t should be remembered, states D octor
Kaupp, th a t la yin g hens must have
mash before them at a ll tim es. The
mash must contain crushed grains,
m inerals, fish o r meat meal, o r Ilia su r­
plu s m ilk o f the farm . Tender, green
feed 1s also needed each day. W ater
should he co nstantly before the b irds
and the g ra in feed glveu them tw ice

Most Poultry Diseases
Can Easily Be Conquered
A broom, shovel, scraper and a spray

good spray m a te riu l w ill conquer most
p o u ltry dlseuses. T he U n iv e rs ity o f
Nebraaku lis ts these remedies as the
best fo r most p o u ltry diseases. U n fo r­
