The latest annual report of the Division shows that in attaining these results a total of nearly half a million 6gke Have been wet 442,125 to be exact. In 1024, when this series of studies began, out of 63,820 eggs set, 14,600 chicks were wing-banded; that is they grew to strong, vigorous, healthy chicks of an average age of three weeks. In other words, this means that it took 4.3 eggs to pro« duce 1 wing-banded chick. In 1029, six years later, a total of 92,108 eggs were set, and these produced 22,067 hd ing-banded chicks, or 1 for every 2.4 cggs set. It 1s also interesting to note that | 1029 the percentage of fertile egus was 83.1. While there was an in- crease during the period of prac- tically 6 per cent in the number of fertile egmg, the increase in the number of' eggs hatched amounted to practically 14 per cent, and the percentage of chicks raised to wing- banding age rose from 66.9 to 86.5 or practically 20 per cent, This is a development of out- standing importgnce to the poultry industry. How it has been brought about 1s best seen by a study of the report of the Poultry Division and its activities, and this is available without charge on application to the Publications Branch of the De- partment at Ottawa.
