From the commercial point of view the good egg laying hen is a very valu- able business investment. The poultry experts In charge .of: the Missouri egg laying contest have made some inter- esting deductions concerning the real commercial woxth of a hen. Figuring under Missouri condjtions. that a hen costs $1 to feed for a year and that eggs average 20 cents a dozen, the hen that lays 60 eggs in a year just pays for her feed. Estimating that it costs half as much. again.for housing and la- bor, the 90 egg hen just. pays-her total keeping. Then the 100 egg: hen. makes a profit of 10 eggs. the 120 egg hen. 30 eggs-and the 200 egg hen 110 eggs profit. In the tatter instance the profit s $1.851-8. [f this were considered as 8 per cent interest on an fnvestment the hen would be wosth $22.91, Of course this is for the 200'egx hen. but the 200 egg hen is the herr of today, with. all due apologies to those whe have recently placed the 300.egg hen. i the. lmmedi ate limelight. The figures above place the hen in line with other . business projects, ‘where it really belongs. Considering the year in and year out profitableness of the poultry industry. properly con- ducted, the insatiable demand for chickens. and eggs, the proverbial shortage in the.big consuming. states and. the stability.of. the.industry as a whole, the hen is logigally a true busi- Breeding For Layers. Tom Barron of England, the fa. mous expert, beligves that:an-egg lay- ing strain cannot. be produced by in- breeding. In order fdr a hen to be a good producer she must be in good health- and full of vigor. In his own case he has not bred from a male for years which was not bred from hens which laid. 200 eggs or more, and he try to overdo the thing and has not bred for the 300 egg hen. He breeds for high averages instead of exception- ally high individuals. . Annual 8quab Production. The production of squabs from each peir of breeders varies from one to two to as high as ten or eleven pairs :a year, but an average of from six to -seven pairs is a fair estimate, al- -though some squab breeders do better than this. Squabs usually sell at the highest priges during cold weather, as pigeons do not breed as freely during the winter as during.the spring.. KA KKK K AR KKK KD x AURE NEWS * 1% (By A. H.
