Fuller, extension economist of the agricultural college. The re- port shows that the average return from eggs and of poultry for each of the 1,740 hens‘ in 14 flocks was $2.22 above feed cost in 1929. Each hen laid an average of 112 eggs between November 1, 1928, and October 31, 1929. Although but 14 poultry raisers kept | records on their flocks in, cooperation with the extension service during the past year,-€5 farmers are. now keep- ing records for 1930, Mr. Fuller says. The 14 record keepers whose reports have just been summarized represent. 11 different eounties. Among the facts revealed by the summaty is that the average farm consumption: of eggs was 159 dozen during the year. Some families ate as many as 238 dozen, while others ate few as 74 dozen. The value of the poultry eaten on these farms aver- aged $15.66. ‘The average cost of feed per hen highest return for eggs and poultry over feed cost secured by any of the Poultry record keepers was $3.95 ‘and the lowest was $1.30. According to the summary, the average size of the farm flocks was 124 hens. The high- est average number of eggs laid per hen was made by a Ward county flock, 141 hens each laying 201 eggs. Sixty-two eggs per hen was the low- est production. The poultry record keepers who co- operated with the extension service during the past year were Mrs. I. A.

O. Hamilton, extension engineer of the Agricultural college. North Dakota farm women trudge too many miles every year carrying water, he believes. During 1930, Mr. Hamilton is going into the counties of Grant, Slope; Penbina, Wells, Kidder and Stark to demonstrate and explain how to in- stall water systems in farm homes. An idea of how much water the average farm ‘household uses: each week: may be got from a recent’ sur- vey made in Nebraska. It was found that each family used an average of 178 gallons a week and that the housewife traveled an average of 42 miles back and forth to the pump each year. Farm engineers of the college have designed several simple water sys- tems which are adapted to most farm conditions. In all cases these systems are not only inexpensive and easy to | @. install but are also arranged so that they may be added to whenever a more complete. one is wanted. .De- |®: tailed information may be secured from the local county agent. Mr. Hamilton expects to spend at least a week in each of the six coun- ties in demonstrating the actual in- stallation of the different systems in farm homes. He believes that: once people see how casily and cheaply these ‘systems can be installed, many more.farms. will have. them. Last year similar work was carried on in McKenzie, Burleigh, Cavalier, ‘Walsh, Cass and Richland counties, with the result that a good number of farms in those counties now have running wat HENS LAY 2860 EGGS DAILY ON NEW RANCH Hepper Brothers Fill 70 to 80 Crates Each Day On Farm Near M'Laughlin Mobridge, §. D., Jan. 10.—Gather- ing eggs is no “child’s play” on the Hepper Brothers’ chicken ranch, near McLaughlin, Corson county. It isn't a case of taking the egg basket out to the chicken house and gathering a few eggs, but rather that of taking 70 or 60 egg crates and fill- ing them, in that they gather about 2,860 eggs a day. The Hepper Brothers’ ranch is 1 cated a few miles northwest of Mc- Laughlin. Here they have a large chicken hotise:in which they are now Leghorn chick-. ens, and it is quite an imposing sight. ‘The owners report the loss of only three chickens from this large num- ber last month. In the early spring they purchased about 15,000 young chicks and out of that number kept 5,500 for winter, which they will sell in the spring and again purchase a large number of small ones for another year. The chickens are just beginning to lay and the owners except to gather about 3,600 eggs a day, which they ship to eastern markets from a railway sta- ranch, highway and the chickens are at large during the summer months. During the winter they are housed in the large chicken house which is well built and requires heat only a part of the time. The owners raise ® large part of their chicken feed, doing their own grinding and mix- ing. They feed from troughs through the center of the house, There are three of the Hepper brothers, who work in shifts, the fact in the making causing them to start work in the very early morning.
