Pelvic  Bones  in  Laying  Hens 
On  page  132,  in  your  book,  “The  Busi¬ 
ness  Tien,”  in  one  paragraph  it  says  that 
the  condition  of  the  pelvic  bones  and 
their  distance  apart  determines  the  value 
of  a  bird.  Now  can  you  toll  me  if  these 
bones  in  a  mature  hen  always  remain 
the  same  distance  apart  at  all  seasons,  or 
do  they  come  together  after  a  hen  has  laid 
her  quota  of  eggs  or  in  a  broody  hen?  I 
was  testing  some  of  the  hens  and  found 
in  some  of  the  broody  ones  the  space  was 
narrow  compared  to  others.  k*  n.  c. 
New  York. 
The  distance  between  the  pelvic  bones 
of  o  hen  cannot  be  taken  as  an  absolute 
index  to  the  productivity  of  the  hen,  but 
this  distance,  together  with  the  compara¬ 
tive  flexibility  of  the  bony  projections, 
does  give  a  clue  as  to  performance  of  the 
hen  at  the  time  the  examination  is  made. 
In  hens  that  are  actively  laying  the  bony 
points  are  some  distance  apart,  are  flexi¬ 
ble  and  easily  separated ;  during  the  pe¬ 
riod  of  rest  and  probably  in  hens  that 
never  lay,  the  bones  are  rigid  and  ap¬ 
proach  each  other  so  closely  that  it  may 
be  difficult  to  place  one  finger  between 
them.  Too  much  reliance  should  not  be 
placed  upon  this,  or  any  other,  one  indi¬ 
cation  of  prolificacy,  but,  taken  with 
other  well  known  signs)  of  good  laying,  it 
is  a  valuable  “pointer.”  It  is  never  safe 
to  conclude  that  a  man  has  been  long 
following  the  plow  because  there  are 
large  callouses  upon  his  palms;  be  may 
be  an  inveterate  golf  player.  Look  for 
galled  heds  al>o  before  jumping  at  con¬ 
clusions.  M.  B.  D.
