Hens with Twisted Necks 
Some hens are affected as follows: 
Their heads drawn down in front and 
nocks twist; cannot eat well or walk 
straight; seem perfectly well otherwise. 
Their feed consists of oats, cracked corn, 
scratch feed, cabbage, always water and 
oyster shells. What is the cause and cure? 
New York. (j t jj. ^ 
This trouble may be vertigo, and fior- 
haps the result of irritation from intes¬ 
tinal worms or some digestive disturb¬ 
ance. A teaspoonful of spirits of turpen¬ 
tine, diluted with au equal amount of 
some bland oil, may be administered, to 
be followed by a physic, like Epsom stilts 
or castor oil, in large teaspoonful doses. 
Subsequent feeding for a time should be 
upon soft, easily digested food. M. B. D.

A Village Hen Lot 
I was very much pleased with an article 
by Charles K. Phelps on page (58 on “Why 
Not Have Eggs When Eggs Are High,” 
the. most instructive and commonsense 
article I have ever read on that subject. 
InE R. X.-\: is full of valuable hints 
and helps to the intelligent farmer, and 
my advice to the readers is to wake up, 
do, and receive profits therefrom. And 
now I should like to tell you my receipts 
from a flock of hens. On Nov. 1, 1917, I 
had 22(5 S. C. W. Leghorn pullets. I buy 
baby chicks from a good reliable poultry 
breeder; 160 of the pullets were hatched 
May 4, 1917, and (56 of them were hatched 
June 4, 1917. I got the first egg from the 
May pullets Oct. 8. and from the June 
pullets Nov. 28. I rear my chickens in a 
stove-heated brooder with small wire-net¬ 
ting covered yard, but both yard and 
brooder are kept scrupulously clean. I 
sell the cockerels in August as squab 
broilers, thus making the sale of cockerels 
pay the cost of baby chicks and feed up 
to three months of age. I keep my laying 
hens on the no yard system. ‘ About 
Oct. 1 the young pullets are put in the 
laying pens and remain there the rest of 
their lives. The pens are well ventilated, 
supplied with nest boxes, drinking foun¬ 
tains, dust baths and all that is necessary 
to make them contented and happy. Be¬ 
low I give a table showing the number of 
hens in pens on the first day of each 
month, eggs.laid during month with av¬ 
erage net price per down for month. 
.Stock on hand Nov. 1, 1918, equaled in 
Value stock on hand Nov. 1, 1917. 
The Stockton 
Hatchery 
Our offerings this season have 
again brought patronage to this 
Hatchery, which judge chicks not 
by price, but by Quality. 
They come because of their 
knowledge, based on past experi¬ 
ence, that here they will find noth¬ 
ing but the Quality of Chick's,which 
are properly hatched and priced. 
Our line of Chicks this season 
will please the most exacting, and 
our prices are unusually low. 
We are booking orders for March 
and April deliveries.
