Dear  Sir: — Lust  Spring  1  purchased  chick?  from  several  large  Farms  but  none  proved 
ak  so  strong  in  vitality  or  grew  so  well  ns  yours.  Vou  will  recall  that  snow  storm  of 
^  April  2nd,  and  your  chicks  arrived  the  same  day,  but  came  through  all  right.  Out  i 
o  the  475  chicks  1  now  have  over  200  extra  good  laying  pullets  that  have  been  } 
laying  continually  since  August  i9th.  Should  1  again  be  in  themarctfor 
chicks  I  will  certainly  remember  yon.  Yours  very  truly,  Jersevland

Management  of  Breeding  Stock 
I  have  a  pen  of  12  S.  C.  White  Leg¬ 
horn  yeur-ohi  liens,  and  a  pen  of  12  May- 
hutehed  pullets  and  four  cockerels.  As 
they  are  all  laying  now  I  have  mated 
two  of  the  cockerels  with  the  hens  and 
two  with  the  pullets.  Do  you  think  that 
this  mating  will  he  all  right?  I  then 
want  to  mate  those  raised  from  the  hens 
with  those  raised  from  the  pullets  next 
year.  Are  two  cockerels  too  many  for 
12  hens  or  pullets?  About  how  long 
after  mating  before  I  can  use  the  eggs 
for  setting?  n.  c.  a. 
New  York. 
There  is  no  objection  to  the  matings 
that  you  have  made,  if  you  wish  to  cross 
these  two  strains  of  White  Leghorns.  One 
cockerel,  however,  in  a  pen  of  12  hens  is 
Sufficient ;  in  fact,  one  vigorous  male  in  a 
pen  of  24  should  do  as  well.  With  two  in 
a  pen  you  have  the  disadvantage  of  light¬ 
ing  and  mutual  interference,  though  you 
guard  to  some  extent  against  the  possible 
failure  of  a  single  mating.  It  would, 
perhaps,  be  better  to  keep  but  one  male 
in  each  pen  at  a  time,  alternating  them. 
Fowls  should  he  mated  from  one  to  two 
weeks  before  the  eggs  are  to  be  used  for 
hatching;  there  is  no  advantage,  and 
some  disadvantage,  in  having  pens  mated 
up  now.  M.  B.  D.

Semi-monitor  Henhouse 
Can  you  give  directions  for  a  chicken 
coop,  semi-monitor.  20  feet  wide,  that 
Can  be  built  any  length  desired  for  a 
Winter  laying  house?  What  style  and 
width  do  you  think  is  best  for  Southern 
Michigan,  near  the  lake,  on  sandy  soil? 
Pennsylvania.  J.  o.  j. 
A  poultry  house  of  the  semi-monitor 
type  and  20  feet  wide  may  be  built,  in 
any  desired  length,  making  it  of  such 
length  thiif  each  fowl  which  it  is  desired 
to  house  may  have  from  three  to  four 
square  feet  of  floor  space.  The  patfeu- 
lar  type  of  house  to  be  built  is  largely 
a  matter  of  personal  choice;  the  semi¬ 
monitor  type  is  a  good  one,  and  a  plain 
shed  roof  type  is  perhaps  equally  good. 
A  poultry  house  should  be  from  16  to  20 
feet  deep;  the  deeper  it  is  in  proportion 
to  its  length,  the  less  material  required 
in  its  construction.  If  interior  supports 
for  the  rafters  arc  not  desired,  it  is 
sometimes  difficult,  to  get  suitable  tim¬ 
bers  for  these  in  lengths  that  will  permit 
of  a  greater  width  than  10  feet.  The 
writer  prefers  a  depth  of  20  feet,  where 
it  is  practicable  to  obtain  it.  M.  B.  D.

Fall  Layers ;  Shrink  in  Milk 
1.  I  have  112,  White  Rook  pullets 
which  have  given  me  profitable  egg  re¬ 
turns.  Bought  as  day-old  chicks  March 
2f),  they  started  to  lay  August  25.  find 
have  been  at  it  ever  since.  Since  the 
Storrs  contest  started  the  flock  average 
is  better  than  over  two-thirds  of  the  con¬ 
test  pens,  being  exceeded  by  82  of  the 
hens  and  their  record  for  the  eighth  week 
was  exceeded  by  only  21  of  the  contest 
pens,  I  sold  eggs  to  private  trade  to 
value  of  $54.80  during  December.  I  want 
the  poultry  on  my  farm  simply  ns  egg 
producers.  Would  you  advise  me  to  keep 
the  pullets  over  for  a  second  season's 
laying,  along  with  this  year’s  pullets,  or 
to  discard  next  Summer  all  except  about 
40  early  layers  which  I  leg-handed  during 
September,  the  latter  ns  possible  breeders 
for  Spring  of  4017? 
2.  November  4  I  bought  a  Holstein  cow 
then  giving  two  cans  of  milk  on  pasture. 
Having  no  pasture  T  tied  her  up  in  a 
stall  and  fed  dried  corn  fodder  morning 
and  night  with  green  grass  at  noon, 
plenty  of  grain  and  beet  pulp,  hut  she 
dropped  fit  once  to  about  nine  quarts 
per  day.  1  finally  got  her  up  to  over  10 
quarts  by  letting  her  feed  out  at  noon, 
now  getting  nine  quarts  on  two-thirds 
grain  fed  before.  Cow  was  sold  as  fresh. 
1  realize  that  the  feed  is  not  right  for 
good  milk  production.  Cow  keeps  in  good 
condition,  however.  With  better  rough¬ 
age  next  year  is  it  natural  to  suppose  the 
cow  will  do  better,  or  did  I  get  the  joker? 
Massachusetts.  L.  A.  B. 
1.  It  hardly  seems  worth  while  to  dis¬ 
card  excellent  layers  after  one  season's 
work;  in  fact,  it  is  an  open  question 
whether  it  isn’t  profitable  to  keep  them 
for  three.  These  pullets  will  not  be  like¬ 
ly  to  make  quite  as  good  a  record  next 
year  ns  this,  but  it  will  not.  cost  as  much 
to  carry  them  through  the  molt,  as  to  raise 
pallets  to  replace  them  and  the  third  year 
record  not  infrequently  exceeds  the  sec¬ 
ond.  If  these  early  layers  which  you 
have  leg-banded  lay  until  late  in  the  Fall, 
or  into  early  Winter,  there  are  your 
breeders  for  the  next  season. 
2.  No  one  knows  a  cow  until  he  has 
summered  and  wintered  with  her,  and 
then  he  knows  her  for  only  that  year, 
specific  as  to  amounts  of  milk.  At  any 
rate,  you  took  this  cow  from  good  pas¬ 
ture,  tied  her  up  in  a  strange  place  ami 
made  a  radical  change  in  her  food.  No 
wonder  she  slumped ;  and  when  a  cow 
slumps  like  that  it  is  very  difficult  to  re¬ 
store  the  normal  milk  flow  until  another 
freshening.  Still,  there  are  cmvs  that 
will  give  a  splendid  mess  for  a  few  weeks 
after  freshening,  and  then  suddenly  drop 
off;  whether  this  is  one  of  them  only  ex¬ 
perience  or  a  former  owner  can  tell ;  as 
Hoard  said,  the  darkest  place  in  the  world 
is  the  inside  of  a  cow.  M.  p.  p_
