A Remarkable Old Hen
In the current issue of farm and
Fireside, the national farpi paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, appears
an interesting discussion about egg
laying hens. Various contributors give
their ideas as to how poultrymen can
improve the egg-laying qualities of
their chickens. One contributor, who
is a great 'believer in trap-nesting, de
scribes as follows a remarkable hen in
his possession:
"We have a White Wyandotte hen
nine years old thpt layed 100 eggs in
-914. She also has a trap nest record
of 200 eggs in less than ten months,
and score cnrds from reputable judges
score her 95 or better.
"For several years we have had our
chickens in charge of employes and
tenants, and while w e knew that No.
2262 (.her band number) was spry and
active we naturally supposed that her
laying days were over; and when last
spring we decided to spend the summer
on the farm we took with her eleven
others 'for sake of auld lang syne.'
"Judge of our surprise after reaching
the farm when No. 2262 was among the
first to begin laying, and laid nearly
every day for over two months. She
was then set, and hatched 11 chicks,
which were given to another hen.
"In about two weeks she began lay
ing, and continued for about a month,
then went broody; but on account of
the hot weather we thought best to
break her up. However, she wouldn't
loaf, and started laying again.
"With the thermometer around 100
in the shade nearly every day, she laid
about a dozen eggs between August 1
and 18."
Never Set a Hen on Freak Eggs
The following advice to poultrymen
is taken from the current issue of
"Farm and Fireside:"
"Did you ever notice how much more
vigorous and growthy is the plant com
ing from large plump seeds of corn,
wheat, beans, radish, lettuce, etc.?
"The same law holds good with
chickens hatched from good-sized, well
shaped eggs.
"Eggs that have sufficient size to
furnish plenty of material to develop a
vigorous, perfect embryo chick, and
room for it to expand, will insure the
chick's ample strength to cut and
burst its shell prison.
"Select eggs of good size and as uni
form in shape, color, and strong in shell
as possible.
