In practicing lino brooding I uho trap nests In my brooding pons dur ing tho batching season. If 1 wish to koop 11 record of tho chicks from in1 dividual lions, each hen'H eggs aro set under bantam hens. These llttlo midgets are Just tho things for this purpose, us they will cover from seven to ten eggs, so you can sdt each hen's eggs before they aro too old. After tho chicks aro hatched, each brood 1h placed In separate couprf with runs attached, and when a week old aro toe-marked with a punch made for the purpose, which can be procured ut any poultry supply house, or a harness pynch may bo used, writes Archie lii. Vandervort of Dela ware county, N. Y., In the Farm and Homo. Ah will bo seen by the dia gram, a good many different marks can be made. Tho coops aro placed In convenient places about .the farm as far apart aH possible, so If a chick happens to got out of tho yard it will not mingle with the others. After they are three or four months old they aro leg-banded with sealed bands und then are allowed to run together. All tho Imnd numbers are carefully recorded, as well as tho Punch Marks Between Toes. way in which the toeB were marked. Of course, all this takes considerable time, but to the fancy breeder It pays to pedigree hiH birds, and he will have less per cent of culls. Jf you do your hatching in incuba tors, you can get some pedigree trays to place in the Incubator, instead of the regular trays. These aro con structed with compartments so th^t the eggs can be kept separate, ana also the chicks hatched therefrom. Before placing the chicks in the broOtffcr they aro carefully toe marked. ? GET EARLY LAYING PULLETS First Egg Frpm White Leghorn Chicken at Four Months and Four* teen Days at Ohio College. *'? ' ' A single-comb White Leghorn pul let, that laid her first >egg jUBt four months and fourteen days from tho date of her hatching, is one of the re sults of breeding for early maturity obtained by the Ohio Agricultural college. The usual age at which pul lets begjn laying is about six months. This extraordinary fowl was one of a group of 720 that were hatched at the same time. Five or six others from this group began laying much earllef than ordinary fowls, showing that it pays to breed for early maturity. They were from the Yesterlald strain of single-comb White Leghorns, that had been bred especially to develop early laying. , It may be interesting to know Just how this flock was fed. From tho first day to* the sixth week they re ceived twice a day a grain ration of two pounds fine cracked corn and three pounds cracked wheat. Up un til the twenty-flrst day they also to coived three times a day a moist mash composed of four pounds rolled oats, three pounds cornmeal. three pounds wheat middlings, six pounds wheat bran, four pounds sifted meat scraps, two pounds alfalfa meal, one quarter pound bone meal, one-quarter pound fine charcoal. This was mixed with skim milk or buttermilk and fed in shallow trays. From the Rlxth week to maturity they received a grain ration of two pounds cracked corn and two pounds whole wheat, fed in open hoppers. From tho twenty first day to maturity they received a mash composed of one pound rolled oats, one pound corn meal; one pound wheat middlings, two pounds wheat bran, one pound sifted meat scraps, one-half pound alfalfa meal, two ounces fine charcoal. This was fed dry in open hoppers. In additioa they were given green foods and jalta. Duckling and Chick. A duckling does not k*iow how to get out of danger. Instead it will become panic-stricken and remain an easy prey for the enemy. On the con trary, a chicken is always on the alert, scampering off to some hiding place the moment that it hears some strange noise.
