Cooperation is a specific answer

And what is that problem?
How to be born into the world

amid good surroundings; how to get
a good education; how to find work
that is healthful and useful to
humanity; how to find love, home,

usefully and well and free from fear
of poverty. That is the problem of
the day.

HOPE TO END HIGH
PULLET MORTALITY
Massachusetts College and
Poultrymen Study.
By G. O. Oleson, Extension Editor, Massa
chusetts State College.—WNU Service.
Massachusetts poultrymen and the
poultry department of the Massachu-
setts State college are entering into a
partnership to study the problem of
reducing mortality of laying pullets,
The high death rate of pullets in the
laying bouse is the major problem con
fronting poultrymen.
The State college poultrymen are
launching the second phase of a three-
part program to obtain more informa
tion concerning the causes of high
mortality and to take measures to cor
rect the trouble. The first part of the
program was started last winter and
spring when 400 poultrymen united in
a campaign to grow healthier chicks.
Applications are being received from
poultrymen who desire to co-operate In
the project of keeping pullets healthy
in the laying house. A third part of
the program, dealing with breeding,
will be started this winter. The co
operating poultrymen are provided
with a pamphlet giving a summary of
some of the essentials for keeping birds
In good condition. In addition, an edu
cational program to meet the needs of
the poultrymen will be carried on.
In return for the educational assist
ance received, the poultrymen will
keep records of their management prac
tices and the death rate of their birds.
This information will be assembled by
the college poultrymen and studied to
see what relationship there may be be
tween the various practices of poultry
management and the resulting mortal
ity of the laying flock.
The time has come when the poultry
man no longer wants to be hand fed
on elementary information on poultry
keeping, but rather, he wants to bear
his share of responsibility in carrying
forward every type of educational
work which will help make the poultry
Industry more stable and profitable.

Keeping Poultry Records
Found Good Judgment
The poultryman who Is progressive
should by all means keep some sim
ple record of his poultry enterprise.
Such records will enable him to de
termine whether or not he should ex
pand or contract his operations. Cer
tainly no one wants to continue his
poultry operations if some other farm
activity will return more for the labor.
On the other hand If the poultry flock
Is a paying proposition he may want
to expand his activities.
Poultry
records also furnish a basis to study
business. It will enable the poultry
man to compare his results with those
of his neighbors and also with results
for previous years.
Poultry record keeping will arouse
an appreciation of the size of that part
of the farm activity. Since the in
come from the poultry flock comes
each week the grand total Is not real
ized unless some record Is made. Poul
try products also constitute much of
the food budget and should be in
cluded among the income. Another ad
vantage of record keeping lies In the
fact that if records are kept the farmer
will do a better Job of caring for his
flock.
Early Poultrymen
The popularity of the American class
of fowls began with an exhibit of espe
cially attractive barred Plymouth rocks
by D. A. Upham of Wilsonville, Conn.,
at Worcester in March, 1869. For a
long time Mr. Upham was erroneously
credited with having originated the
breed, but It Is now well established
that the stock was brought from Eng-
land by some of the earliest settlers of
Plymouth. The White Plymouth Rock
Is of similar origin. The first man In
the New world to begin poultry keeping
and the service of poultry keepers as a
full-time business was Isaac K. Felch
of Natick, Maas., who began In 1870,
and for fifty years was actively en
gaged In promoting poultry culture In
every part of the United States. Long
before 1890 he was known as "the Fa
ther of Poultry Culture In America."
Plenty of Scratch Feed
It is a good practice to feed an abun
dance of scratch feed especially dur
ing the developing period, according to
an authority at the North Carolina
State college. This will build a good |
frame and develop vitality for the egg
laying period. An excess of anima!
protein fed during the developing pe
riod will bring the birds Into lay be
fore they are fully matured, and an
abundant feeding of scratch will retard j
thia early production and aid In build ;
