For men who got away to a false start on a pipe
or home-made cigarettes Prince Albert has a word
or two for what ails their smokeappetites ! ;:7
Forget you ever tried to smoke, for Prince Albert is so
different such a fine flavor, so cool and cheerful and
friendly, youH get a new idea of smoke joy I The patented
process fixes that - and curs out bite and parch I
And this little preachment is also for men who . think
they're on the right track. All to be said is that the sooner
you lay out a nickel or a dime for a supply of Prince

Making a Flock of One Hundred Hens
Pay for Their Upkeep Iredell Teat
Farm Project
(Issued monthly from the Office
Poultry Investigations and Patholo
gy, Animal Industry Division, North
Carolina Agricultural Experiment
Station, West Raleigh, N. C. Bul
letins may be had free for the ask
ing) This work was begun April Z,
1914, primarily to determine first,
what it would cost to keep a farm
flock of hens a year and just what
profit if any, could be secured.
When the work was begun there
were some single comb Rhode Island
Red hens on the Test Farm. Other
good grade Rhode Island Reds wera
purchased in the neighborhood.
The hens were always to be given
the run of the farm and get ail they
could eat on the side and around
the barns and house. No account
was to be made of the feed they
obtained by forraging. An accurate
account has been kept of all grain
and other feed given.
For the hens a common ration of
corn one part, and oats one part was
obtained. The object of this feeding
was to use the most common farm
feeds. This feed was supplemented
part of the year with wheat shorts-
The chicks were fed rolled oats,
cracked corn and wheat. Oyster
shell was kept before them at all
times. During the year, the hens
laid 8,676 eggs or an average of
86.7 eggs to the hen. They were
kept under actual farm conditions.
All surplus eggs were sold on the
Statesville market at an average
price of 20 cents a dozen and when
the increase of the flock is taken in
to consideration together with the
value of the eggs, the profit receiv
ed amounted to one dollar and fifty
seven cents per hen. The-hens con
sumed durine the year about four
tons of feed and increased in num
bers to .189, Market prices for the
grain was charged against the hens
and all expenses for upkeep were paid
by the money received from the sale
of the eggs. . ' . ,
