Farm News for New York 
(Continued from page 661) 
sound program for 1918, the poultry ques¬ 
tion was thoroughly considered, and im¬ 
portant recommendations made. It was 
assumed that feed prices will continue to 
be exorbitant, and that the price of eggs 
will be below cost of production rather 
than above. It was recommended that a 
few very high-gi'ade individuals be kept, 
however, on every farm, and that the 
basis of efficiency of management be cai-e- 
fully looked after. Increasing the propor¬ 
tion of mash feed was advised, and the 
use of artificial lights to stimulate egg 
production where possible for Fall and 
Winter seasons. Keeping only one large 
flock instead of several small ones, as 
lessening expenses and standardizing all 
products so far as possible was also ad¬ 
vised. Those who keep hens until the 
close of the war will then be in a position 
to make a profit, as feeds will go below 
the relative price of eggs, and there will 
be a great demand for eggs and stock. 
Dr. ,Tohn H. Finley has set April 19 
as Arbor Day for the eastern and south¬ 
ern parts of the State, May 1 as the day 
for the northern counties, and April 26 
for the remainder. This plan of recogniz¬ 
ing climatic differences in the State was 
first tried last year and was found most 
satisfactory. M. G. F.
