Profitable Farm Bird Both For Egge and Market Purposes. For the average farmer there is more money In roasters than in brollers be- cause once past the broiler stage the mortality is exceedingly small, writes H. C. Wood, secretary Light Brahma club. Consequently the cost of pro- duction and ralsing to the roaster |, stage as compared with the increased price the roasters bring should normal- 1y show a greater profit than there s in marketing brollers when we take into consideration the mortality and *- As an all round heavyweight fowl for the production of broilers, heavy roasters and capons the Brahma is In the front rank. The Light Brahma has been the most popular, but the dark Brahma fs just as good. Both produce a great amount of breast meat, having long breasts and good width between the thighs. The cock shown i3 a dark Brahma. large amount of care and attentlon re- quired for the baby chicks and then on to broiler stage. I believe this applies particularly to the farmers ralsing poultry as a side line, who as a class are our biggest producers. Where. large size as roasters is the object Light Brahmas lead all breeds, the standard weights being: Cocks, twelve pounds; hens, nine and a half pounds; cockerels, ten pounds, and pul- lets, eight pounds. From birth Light Brahmas are a desirable fowl for the breeder because of thelr unusual strength as compared with many other breeds, their ability to pick up a living on range and the ease with which they are handled, this latter due to their docility. They are heavy boned and feather quickly, so that their sturdi- ness favors their not huddling or crowding and smothering to death when raised in brooders or after their foster mothers have left them or been taken away. The farm, with its unlimited range for the growing birds, offers ideal con. ditions for maturing Light Brahmas. On free range they are not inclined to take on flesh rapidly, but they develop wonderful bone, frame and stamina, Just the things that are most essentlal for the fowl that is Intended ns a breeder or early winter roaster for mar- ket. If a bunch of birds are to be fattened for market they can be yarded and housed at some convenient place where it 18 easlest for the feeding and water- ing. When it comes to yarding them a threo foot fence Is plenty high. The seraps from the table mixed with corn- meal and sour milk will put on‘at at n surprising rate nnd give these favored fowls a flavor that is not to be beaten.

Creates & Tendency to s duce Small Litters. The earliest time that young sowsy sbould be bred is when they are seveg or elght months old. The proper ags depends chiefly upon their develop. ment, says Ray Gatewood, lun‘nmo, in animal husbandry In the Kansay State Agricultural college. It has been found that the continued practice of breeding SOWS when they are too young creates a tendency to. ward small litters. Breeding too early will also cause a check In the develop- ment of the sow. The period of gestation in swine i 112 to 116 days, which allows the rais. ing of two litters each year. This i advocated under ordinary conditions put in the raising of youug pigs for thg show ring one litter a year is better UPPIRTUNIE R TRECTRS SRR Phone 850 Bemidji Minn.
