The conversion of a flockUnit bare* 1 'Jy pays for the feed it cat* into one i which. will lift the mortgage from the I home farm is largely a matter o f: elimination of tho "star hoarder,'’ and j the conservation of the 200 -egg-a-year hen*. Those who have made special studyof this subject are firmbelievers in the trapnest. To discover the best egg producers one must use the trap nest, or somo method of keeping a * record>of eggs laid by indhidual hens; The trap ne3t is about the best thing that ljaa been discovered Ju "the poul-, try business. There-will ho hut slow improvement in breeding without m egg record for^ each hen in tho flock. The objection* to the trap nest is that it requires top much labor for the farmer. That ia true in the majority of cases. Not many farmers can-give the necessary time, it is here that the state or ex­ periment station should and can ho n great aid. There should he a Weeding station or several in every state, where the farmers and poultry raisers could secure at, a fair price ,cockerels of good egg-laying pedigree to mate with their flocks. It Would not take so® very long to furnish ttose farmers who had improvement o f their flocks in view with-a male bird whose an­ cestry for two generations had an egg .record-of 150 eggs, a year or more. It IS the hen of vigor that lays; without constitutional vitality she will . pot lay. That id undoubtedly true. A hen may have egg-laying capacity, but without vigor she will tnot produce eggs. ’ On the other hanfl, the' hen may have vigor without egg-laying -capacity. She may have constitution­ al vitality, and lay less than 20 eggs a year. The’ point is that by selecting ■vigor alone will not make rapid prog- . ress In breeding up a strain of heavy layers. Although vigor is one of the main things, we must select both vig­ or and egg capacity. The trap uest ' enables us to do this. ' The lien that lays 200 eggs a year has good vitality, so that a good egg record is an indica­ tion’ of high vitality. It is possible that the 200-egg hen will not- produce chicks of good vigor. It is also pos­ sible that her eggs may not he fertile. This is also possible in the poOr layer. - It Is also possible that heavy laying may injure her breeding qualities. That is a debatable point, hut the fact ifemains that .the hen that lays 150 eggs-or morea year has good vitality, •and it is such'lions that- one mqst fle- pend .upon to increase egg production aid make poultry keeping more profit­ able. , A high egg record indicates consti- , tufional vitality and stamina. The : trap nest,-therefore, selects for vigor as Well as ■ egg-laying capacity, each S$at£,would take hold of this In - a 1practical way, without doubt in a . few years IttW 0 tttd add millions of dol­ lars to the profits Of poultry keepers ■ end at the same time help solve; the nation’s food supply. , Fon S am i ;—Xluroc Jersey Sow and eleven pigs. ’ iPhone 4-71, , *.
