Prices Justify Earlier Hatching.
Egg prices during recent years
liave reached their peak (luring the
1 ist few weeks of November and the
lirst weeks in December and have
declined very rapidly after January
1st. A:; a rule egg prices begin l(.
climb about tbe first of ScpU'iuhci
rii'l aro highest during the fall
months, with the lowest point ofto
1 eini' r"Mcli(Ml in February. This
cnrdll'ou rcbitlts from the fact that
egg production falls off heavily dur
ing the fall months from the ma
lure hens on account of the moltinc
period starling and pullets are uoi
i ,':ir enough matured to lay many
orgs at that season. Then aboil
J elr'nary 1st the old h-pu have fin
islied the molt and are (.online bad
Mito heavy production while even late
ii. itched pullets are beginning to
show signs of laying, so that a Hood
of frcMli eggs comes on to the general
morket bclore the stored eggs are en
tirely disposed of, with the result
that the nrirket breaks uudquite of
ten guos to a llgure below the actus' '
.standard of values which is ostab
lished during April when eggs arc
going into cold storage in large quan
tities. On account of these condi
tions an opportunity is olfered to
wide awake poultry keepers to take
advantage of the low egg prices in

Kvery poultry keep "' who is try

matter of laying ability or show qual
ities ought to luaiut.iin a special
breeding tloek to provide the ogg
for hatching. In this breeding Hock
sbuld be found the very best females
from the entire Hock, mated to out
standing males. I'.etter results at"
usually secured where only nialun
'en-, are used as the females for the
bleeding Hock, but where not eno"gh
bins ot good quality are available to
fiirm.-di eggh needed for hatching, the
best well matured, early ha. (bed
pullet's can safely bo included as
breeders.
Success in batching oggs depends
to a considerable extent upon the
