IN almost every flock thera Is a percGn(a;:;o of hens wlio are poor layers. 'I'lieso hens lay bo few egss tliat tlioy frequently do not pay for the feed they cat and there- fore rediics the profits of the better laycis. The market price la hit;h for old hens, and where the birds are not good prolticers it is a good plan to market them fairly early. There are also in most (lucks a number of hens that were hatched in 1917 or earlier. Our figures supgest that nio.st hens fall back about t.vcuty eggs annually In their production. It is true that most of this occurs fiuring tlic winter months, but one must als3 consider that the number of ey^s falls off considerably after the niont.T of May and, moreover, It is nut uncommon for July and Aug- ust to be pool' egg-producing months. Tlie price of old luns usuaSly is at lis low<;st point during the fall of the year, so that in many cases it pays best to sell llu; old birds not wanted for next year fairly soon, as the decline in price frequently is more than (he prolit iiiude upon the eggs laid from June to (Jctober. In a word the' hen tliat has bright yellow legs and beak .J. this season is a poor producer, as is also usually the bird that has a large amount of internal fat or i.s very full and hard In the space between tiie end of the breast bono and the tail. A good laying hen is active. If of the yellow-legged breeds her feet are uK'ially faded, as is also the bill. Her toe-nails are shorter than her pooBor laying mates. Slie appears as if she Jiad worked harder, that is she is not !:o fleek and fat. Her skin is usually thin and soft. She is busy and not a loafer. The non-laying hen has a small dry vent whereas the laying hen lias a largo moi.st vent. .Small Colli Storage for ICvery t''ai'in. Cold storage practice so far has been connected with the large pro- duce warehouses in our towns and cities. These establishments could not do .'â- iicce'^sful business if their plants wertj not provided witli large storage chambers kept cool and in other particulars suitable for the long stora^;e of perishable products of the farm, such as eggs, butter, meat, cheese, fruit, and so forth. Some day, probably not so far dis- tant after pll, the farmers may be- come sulllcienlly well organized to build and equip meetianical cold .stor- age warehouses of their own, where- by tliey will be able to have com- plete control over the products of their own laLor until they are dis- posed of to the lonsiiniing public. Hersonally, I believe tlic problem of uold stoiai<e on the farms should be handled ttuo'igh co-operatively owu- ed warehoti.ie:; provided with ade- quate cold storage facililii 3. Apuit, hoHover, from the question of a coll f.loiage with up-to-date mechanical equipment for tlie fuui or farmers' association tis suggested above, there is llu' problem on al- most every farm pertaining to the storage for a few days of small quan- tities of various foods used on the table from '.l.iy to day, such as but- I ter, meat, milk, etc. It is certainly a great saving and matter of cou- I Tenionce to nave on the farm a small cull! .storage chamlMjr or refrigerator in wliicli 10 keep uieso very perisii- abl(! articl.'S of lood in a good fresh and whole.iome condition lor use on ilie table during the warm season of the year. This is made poiisible by the use of ice," and as it is procur- able in almost every district of this country at a reasonable cost, tliere is no excuse for f?aiiiera not layii.g by in the winter season a few loiifi in some cheap form of icehouse, in tlio !:uiMiiier time Ibis ice will bo touiKl mo:il useful for cooling the milk an 1 cream, supplying an ice-box or rilrigerutor in which lUe butter, for ex.iiiipio, may be kept lirm, the iiiilk and cream sweet, and the foods In good condition for the table day by day. Willi ice always so handy and ihe \w:X of cream atariable, 11 is po.s;,ible for the house-wife to make Hucli delicious and wholeson.o deli- cacies as icecream, sherbets, and luauy deligliiful and cool dritiKs, all of whicli are most refreshing and sllMiulaling 10 tlie folks ou (he farm In the hoi and busy season of the year. In case of sickness, too, ice is houutimes a necessity.
