"Over fatness in the hens will produce unfertility, and then once 

 in a while you will find a barren on sterile hen. We will often find 

 a cock that will be all right the second year, and sometimes the third 

 year too. Always use such, as they will insure stronger chicks, 

 and by keeping your eye on the eggs at testing time, you can regu- 

 late these things to your liking. Always keep over a few of the 

 best of all early hatched cockerels, so as to have something to fal) 

 back on in case of emergency."
