Artificial lights properly operated trill materially Increase the winter egg production of pullets, the United States Department of Agriculture believes. The use of lights may also slightly ln creas?P4i>e yearly egg production of Individual hens, though not- to any marked extent. The opinion of the de partment's poultry division Is fully cor roborated by many of the state experi ment stations, particularly ? those in California, Indiana, Kansas, Washing ton, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, New York and New Jersey. County agents working In New York and New Jersey report considerable activity in this project. In which the Department of Agriculture usually co operates with the state agricultural college through the county agent. Lighting as a Feeding Measure. It should be well understood that ar tificial lighting Is Intended primarily as a means of getting the hens to feed longer than they otherwise would dur ing the short days of fall and winter. An extra feeding of scratch grain should be provided, so that the flock Is induced to eat not only enough for maintenance but an amount compar able to what la dhteo in the more ac tive laying seasons. Lights are used soon utter Septem ber 1 iu New Jersey, but In most local ItlM they are started November 1 and continued to April 1. Conditions vary In different states. What may be good practice In Now Jersey may not work In Kansas. In the latter state elec tricity is considered the only practi cable kind of light while In other States kerosene lamps and gasoline mantles are sometimes used. Electric ity IS the moot practical method to use wherever It Is available. How to Uao Artificial Light The total daylight, real and artifi cial; should be about fourteen hours. There are three ways of increasing the apparent length of the day?by tuning on lights very early In the morning, or by keeping them going several hoars at night, or. by using them both morning and-flight. While all three methods hgve given good re sults, the first Is usually found most convenient, because the limits merge Into daylight and no 111 effects result If they are not turned off promptly. In using the second method some dimming device Is needed with electric lights to lower the illumination gradu ally. The bens do not get to their roosts* If the light Is suddenly extin guished. Gasoline and kerosene lamps have to be turned down. Artificial lighting can be abused, with disastrous effects on the flock. If they are run for too long a day. the hens may produce well for a short time and then begin to moult. If the laying passes 00 per cent, or. In the opinion of some poultry authorities, 50 per cent, there la danger of moulting and consequent cessation of laying. In the Spring the lights should never he Stopped nbruptly. The length of time (hey are run should be shqrtened about ten minutes n day until they can he entirely abandoned. Other Points With Lights. Fresh water should be given the ^ock tile first thing In the morning ?rhen the lights are turned oh. Birds pt different sges should not be housed together or lighted In the same way. ffhey should be properly graded and Pocked according to age., Lighting makes It possible to carry February Patched pullets through the first fall god winter producing period with less pooulting. Yearlings and two-year-old hens are better If started with artifi cial lights in January, and the method Is not as profitable as with pullets. It Is considered a questionable practice to turn lights on culled hens to stimu late egg production. In New Jersey, prhere ths largest amount of work baa heen done with tftlflcial lighting. It is thought better to sell the culls and buy pood birds. Artificial lights should be suspended from the ceiling so that the entire floor gpace is lighted. If the roosting doset rtlon casts a shadow on the roosts, chickens win go to sleep In the fchadow. Results in New Jersey show that In general the use of lights nearly doubles production during the period of high prices of eggs and greatly Increases the usual net return oyer the coat of lights and feed In the lighted pens The lighted flock showed better health than the unilghted ones, and the subsequent laying was as good among ths birds which had had winter lights as with any sf ths birds. A record was kept of 14 New Jersey docks for five months. The birds aver aged 3,802 In number and laid 280.BU eggs altogether. Tills was a 41 per cent production, whereas a 22 per cent production was tisiml before the experi ment. This meant an Increase of 127. 158 eggs. An experiment was made at the agri cultural experiment station. New Brunswick, N. J.. In which 600 unllght ed pullets made a profit of $3.20 per bird, but BOO lighted birds cleared 15.07 each. The lights were turned on In the morning. Where an evening lunch was given to 100 pullets the profit per bird was $5.48. The fuel and operating cost for 1,100 birds was 4.4 cents per bird. Au Increase of a single egg per bird pays this cost. ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS FOR FOWLS fi!

AFFECT FARM VALUES BY CHANGES IN TYPE Certain Crops Have Ceased to Be Profitable. Farmer in Making New Selection Will Do Wall to Look Back and Fallow Economic Changer That Have Occurred. lPr.p.r.4 by the Unite* State. Department *( Agriculture.) Many farmers, before baying a farm, bare saved themselves future looses by looking well Into the matter of a probable change In the type of farming practiced In the region they have under consideration. Certain crops may cease to be profitable owing to tbe development of other regions more favorably situated for their pro duction, and marketing. Some crepe may hare to he abandoned becaaae of disease, insect pests or other causes. Tbe United States Department of Ag riculture suggests the test question: Is the farm selected adapted to such possible changes? For Instance, the farm selected may now be growing beans, potatoes, corn, oats, clover and hoy, with the pros pect that beans and potatoes will soon cease ft) be profitable. The question then arises?can some otheF crop or crops-he found to replace themT Very few "regions have a wide range of crops, especially in general farming, and adaptability to new crops is a very important consideration. Can tbe beef-cattle farm be made over Into a dairy farm? Can tbe dairy farm be made into a sheep farm? Can the fruit farm be made Into a hay, grain or live stock farm? In many Instances It wHl be found that the farm In question demands n type of farming that cannot be . easily changed to meet tliev needs of chang ing conditions. When making a selection, look hack and follow the local economic changes that have occurred In the last 80 years, and thbn Judge for yourself whether the farm you have under con sideration has the adaptability neces sary tor meeting the cbauges that are bound to come In the future. BEST CABBAGE FOR STORING j Should Bo Carefully Grown and of Va riety Wall Adaotod to Keeping, Say Expects. Cabbage for storing should be care fully grown and handled und of a va riety well adapted to keeping, say the vegetable specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. The heads should be solid and all loose leaves removed and practically free from Injuries .caused by Insects and diseases. They should be placed in a storage house so constructed and arranged as to prevent drip from the structure striking the stored heads. It Is also essential that moisture and ven tilation be ao controlled as to prevent the condensation of moisture on the cabbage while In storage. The tem perature maintained In common stor age houses may vary from 32 to 45 or SO degrees Fahrenheit, depending on outdoor conditions. In bo case should the cabbage be allowed to freese. The usual type of conduction em ployed in commercial storage hoases Is that of a broad, low* house with an alley sufficiently wide to admit ii team and wagon through the center, and with the storage bins or shelves ar ranged on either side. The cabbage Is placed on shelves In layers, one to three layers deep,,or In cratfes or venti lated fcbNL Banks, pita and cellars are also largely used far the keeping ft XM erep. ' Nolle* mt Sal* uJ?
