Trap-nesting tV,?'
cha
rmanent progress in poultry Sou
ling is most likely to be estab- auc
d through careful pedigrceing,
one of the important steps in nca
freeing is trap-nesting the breed- twc
females. Trap-nesting is practi- pre
'or the constructive breeder and ^
?sary for pedigreeing, unless birds ^un
nated in pairs only and each pair thr<
rately penned, according to N. R. of ]
hof, poultry specialist. In order can
ave accurate and complete in- jj.i

must know what each breeder is N<
ble of doing. The trap-nest is
itial in furnishing this informaIt
also furnishes an accurate j
record. This information helps 0flpoultry
