Many of them motored In from Mor Tl'town and tho Long Island susurbs, as well ns from tho Hudson river 1uccb.

The main ren boii why they don't lay Is because this Is not the natural laying sea son. In a state of nature fowls lav and breed In tho Bprlng senson, nnd they haven't got quite away from that habit. Old habits die hard with hens aB with men. This explains why with little caro tho hen will lay In tho spring nnd with much caro In the fall and winter Bho won't lay or vory seldom will. But through centuries of training nnd breeding the hen Is gradually getting away from her old habit of laying a fow eggs In the -.prlng nnd hatching them and It Is possible now with tho propor skit' In handling to make hor lay In win tor whether she will or not. But the first thing wo hnvo to learn Is thnt to got eggs In winter means a fight nganst nnburo, against tho old hen nnMire. Winter Is not the natural laying season. When n pullet hns reached mntur Ity, no matter at what emon of the 'ear, If bIic be maintained in goo-i icalth and vigor nnd get tho propo kind nnd qunntlty of food, Bhe wll!

Thoy should hnvo grain; but grnjn alonojvon't do. What will hnppon If tho lion eats nothing but wheat? Remomborlng that sho puts nothing Into nn egg sho doos not cat, thnt nr ogg contnlns about ono-flfth ounco of fat and that If sho ato nothing but whont sho would got enough fut for throo or four oggB n day and nbout enough protein for half an egg a day, tho thing that will hnppon will bo that sho will refuso to rqnko oggs. Tho lion does not ndultornto hor pro duct, othorwlso elio could fill up tho ogg with surplus fat like some peo- pio mane minor out or suprlous oil or ueor rat. sue will mnko an hon est nrt'clo or nono at all. Tho point Is that tho hen should havo such fods as will furnish tho necessnry food olonients in propor proportions; In other words, she Bhould havo a balancj-l ration. Thero nro dlfforont wnva of balancing the ration. For In- tanco, If tho lion has accoss to wheat, to clover or kale nnd to grns?-hornm-8, angleworms, nnd grit. Eha wl' balance hor own ration. She wll' en a llttlo wheat, a lltle clover an ' a few grnsshopuers or angle worms and oat enough of onch to furn'Bh the ogg-mnkluc elomonts In right proportion. An ncca-donnl foed of corn or onts In place of wheat wc4ild Improve tho ration. This much for the food how shnV. It bo fed? Again you nnpt take ac count of the nature of the hen. She Is n busy creature natural1)'; that i iart of her life, and you must keep hor busy or let her be b"sy. If Bhe hns free range on the fnrm she will and digestion in good order, but when you shut her nip In yards you are im 'iQ'Ing artlfllclal conditions and you must provide exercise for her. I have kopt hens for a voar on a bare hoard floor In n smnM pen and fed theii well; thoy lnld r-bout three dotn eggs each during tho year and nt the end of tho year with this sort of luxury and eafo they hnd loit their constitution and their usefulness; while other hens fed in the same way but with a ground floor and deop litter to rcrntch in nnd yards to run In 'ad ove- 12 dozen egEa each, and n the end of tho vear were UUl in thf hutlnetfs Tho hen need xfrcie.

Another point nbout feeding grnin should It bo ground or fed whole? It Is known thnt a cortnln pro port'on of tho food of fowls 1b ued o produce energy to grind tho food, nnd from this pojnt of view It Is I ciiL'iiiiur 10 juivu iiiu iouu kuuuu hi tho mill, nut It has been found by oxporlmont that fowls do not do woll when fed altogether on ground food. It hns beon found to bo n safo plan to keep a box or hopper of ground grnln before tho fowls n!l tho time ni well as whole grain. When they nro confined, however, In smnll pensi nnd yards, tho grain had boon ho rod 'n a doep llttor of strnw in ordor to 'nduco oxerclso, Tho final point In this discussion b tho laying enpnetty of tho lion. It all the three things mentioned nbovo bo properly nttondod to, there wll1 still be n scarcity of oggs unlu's tho fowls hnvo tho laying cnpaclty, and it In no fault of the hen If sho hasn't tho troubles gow back to her ancos tors. This Is a quo'tlon of heridlty and If It bo not true thnt the hens transmits her laying qinlltles to hor orf.miiiir the laws of Inhorltnnco need revl-'on. The Oregon oxporlment itntlon Is at work on this problem now and wo hopo In a fow years to lemon-trato what function or part breeding or heridlty piny in filling h egg basket when eggs are 50 cents a dozen. We havo demon strated, however, that no amount of skill or care will make some boas lay. In our experiments wo have found hens that never laid an egg and thoy havo varied all the way frnm iorn tn nhotlt 250 OKK8 in n year under B'milar care an manngo mont.
