Timely Farm Questions
Q. Can a breeding male be se
ccted for the poultry flock by
'landling only ?
A. Yes, but there is always the
hance that the best male from a
handling standpoint has the poor
est -breeding qualities. It is al
ways best to. study the performance
f the parents before selecting a
male for breeding purposes. How
ever, if the bird has to be selectr
;d by handling see that it is true
to breed so far as feather pattern
goes and that he is without anv
ienous defect. The body shou'd
be deep in front .and equally deep
h the center. The head must be
'istinctly masculine and show good
character with well developed sec
ondary sex characters as comb
;arlobes, and wattles. Be sure the
Jird shows high vitality and has
iood body weight.
Q. How should soil be prepared,
for growing plants in window
boxes?
A. To obtain a good soil which
is the first essential in producing
ood plants, make a compost pile
of alternate layers of manure and
good garden soil. After the soil has
been thoroughly mixed it should
be sifted to get rid of trash,
stones, and other coarse material.

of a pound of grain for each pound
of milk above ten. However, dif
ferent cows have different capaci
ties for milk production and each
cow must be studied as an' indi
vidual before a definite grain feed
ing can be determined, i By increas
ing; or decreasing the grain allow
