Hints on Care Of Laying Flock Mortality among laying birds is one of the most profit reducing factors of the egg producing phase of poultry keeping, for at the death of a bird, the potential profit from future egg production must be added to the immediate market value of the dead bird. In the poultry breeding work at the Dominion Experimental Staâ€" tion at Harrow, Ont., the study of mortality within family groups has shown that although some lines demonstrate a better state of longevity than others, some males when bred more than one year, vary as regards d,.;iugz‘-terA mortaliâ€" ~â€" Tadk e Torke ping _ cc~d Eoo o td Ssn The causes of poultry mortality are numerous and often puzzling as to their source of introduction, says W. F. Mountain, Head Poulâ€" ltryman at the Station. Diseases probably predominate among the causes of â€" death, â€" particularly among laying pullets, and quite often they arise through some oversight. Housing young and old together, bringing in new birds without a suitable period of isolaâ€" tion, or the admission of people or materials that have had proxiâ€" mity to other flocks frequently opens the door to trouble. Prompt removal of birds showing signs of sickness is a worthwhile practice. In fact, a daily pause to inspect the flock in their activities is a good habit to cultivate. _ y mm ies en en e en Cleanliness of the eating and drinking utensils as well as the wholesomeness of the food and drink are necessary conditions for health. Green food, in the form of good quality hay to pick at, is recommended as a course of proâ€" tection against vices. . 2 To draw a fine line between the distinct influences of breeding and environment on poultry morâ€" tality is difficult, indeed almost impossible, so the safest general course must be chosen. This is to secure stock from a good source and then be prepared to use proâ€" per methods of managemenit to allow full expression of its inherâ€" ent vitality. our minds on our own," said Rev. A. M.

They disfigure : and, therefore, degrade a high| proportion of otherwise excellent R market carcasses, says S. Bird,| Poultry Division, Central Experiâ€" mental Farm, Ottawa. The cause 1 for these blemishes is tied up with | breeding for high egg production. |‘ It was urged in the past, without [‘ |too much evidence in support, that | laying birds must have deep boâ€"| \dies. However, it has been found that the body cavity.is related to the size. of the bird generally, but | ‘not to keel depth, and that it is the latter which may give diverâ€" gent depth to two otherwise equally large birds. When a deep keeled bird is roosting, the crest |of its keel will ride against the roost, and this constant rubbing under pressure eventually proâ€" ‘duces a bursa after the bird has ‘ attained a body weight of approxâ€" imately 2 pounds. Bursae are, therefore, in full bloom between the ages of 10 to 20 weeks. After |this age, all birds attain a greater |fullness of breast muscling which prevents the keel from riding on ithe roost and bursae subside, so that in mature males, real bursae Iare rare and only the wrinkled‘ |scarâ€"tissue remains. For the same reason, females which are rounder ‘in breast conformation than males are rarely afflicted with these blemishes. Males that are deep enough to ride on their keel at an early age when this is still cartiâ€" laginous in nature, may instead of a bursa acquire a crooked keel. For marketing purposes, one is alâ€" imost as bad as the other. Breast Blisters Of Poultry The obvious remedy is to select: strains of birds with smaller body depth relative to their size which, automatically, will result in more rounded ‘breasts and thus fewer bursae. In the meantime, it would be advisable to substitute flat boards for the usual 1‘ to 2 inch roosts since this may somewhat alleviate the effect of the deep \keels, Law does not compel husband and wife to live together.

DEMAND GREATER TRAFFIC CAUTION i A life and death test on traffic safety faces Ontario people in the closing days and mgh':s of 1949. Can death losses from street and highways accidents be kept down to less than two per day? That is the big question. The anâ€" swer is in the hands of Ontario‘s 1,250,000 drivers and everyone who walks. _ Back in 1941, the worst year for fatal accidents, traffic killed the appallin% total of 801 children and adults. Fortunately that toll has never since been equalled deâ€" spite a huge increase in cars, trucks and drivers and a bigger population exposed to the hazards |of this larger volume of traffic. Provinceâ€"wide and local safety: efforts by the schools, the police forces, the press, radio, safety and service organizations, the Departâ€" ment of Highways and ot?\ers. have been waging a ceaseless war against accidents. But in 1949, until October and November, the crusade for safety was barely holding its own against the specâ€" tre of traffic deaths. _ â€" Though the struggle to better last year‘s safety record cannot now be won, there is still, with the sharp improvement shown in October and November records, a chance to keep the provincial death total for 1949 below that of 1941, despite the huge increase in traffic. In October, six fewer lives | were lost than last October, and‘ November deaths were cut from 93 to 68, a saving of 25 lives. If; safer driving in December keeps‘ tige month‘s deaths down to less‘ than 60, a record breaking year of tragedy will be avoided. _ _ ; Emmenp h o e ee is Warning that the yearâ€"end holiâ€" day season may upset the recent trend toward fewer fatal acciâ€" dents, officials are urging all moâ€" torists to cut down speeds when driving in the dark or on slippery pavements. They warn too of the sharp increase in hazards as holiâ€" day shoppers jam the streets. They ask particularly that parâ€" ents keep children away from traffic dangers in the holiday seaâ€" Rigid Inspection Guards Livestock The methods used by the veterâ€" inarians of the Dominion Departâ€" ment of Agriculture to prevent the introduction and spread of animals‘ diseases in Canada are many.
