"A good laying flock should consist of at least 80% pullets and not over 20% old hens. 100% good pullets is most profitable. Cull your laying flock now and .remove the loafers, i Loafers may be-disposed of by selling, i home canning, putting into a freezer locker and eating more chickens lit home. Eat at least one or more loaf ers each week. “Let us adopt this motto, ‘Eat the Loafers Instead of Letting Loafers Eat the Profits.’ If you' don’t know how to cull your flock, call on us and we will show you how. • Your County , Agent will be glad to conduct a flock culling demonstration on your farm or in your community.” e .
