PULLETS SUOULD BE LADING. 



Young pullets hatched in March and April ought all to be laying this mouth. Later hatched 

 ones, if not laying by November, will probably if left to themselves not lay before spring, wheu 

 eggs are down' to fifteen cents per dozen. A well-known poultry farmer showed us recently his 

 account for last December, with 125 pullets. The net profit for that month from eggs alone was 

 #39.39; from the same pullets in April following the profit was 814.97, and he got fifty dozen 

 more eggs in April than in December. Now this is a striking lesson to all who keep hens for 

 profit. Get all the eggs you can this dull year when other crops are short, as eggs always bring 

 cash. Probably 45 cents per dozen by Christmas. Therefore get the pullets to laying early 

 when prices are highest. Rev. S. "W. Squires, of Franklin, Mass., says: " For the purpose of 

 seeing how manv e^us I could obtain last winter from twelve hens, I used four large cans of 

 Sheridan's Condition Powder. I believe it is the best preparation known to increase egg pro- 

 duction. I saved part of the eggs for hatching after forcing the hens four months for all they 

 were worth with the Sheridan's Powder, and I never had a greater per cent, of fertile eggs or 

 more vigorous chickens. In brief, I do not believe I can afford to be without the Powder to 

 give health and vigor to young hens." Six cans of Sheridan's Powder will pay a good dividend 

 in eggs if you commence early. If you cannot get it near home, I. S. John> ox it Co., 22 Custom 

 House Street, Boston, Mass. (the only makers of Sheridan's Condition Powder), will send it as 

 above.
