' McKinney and Lily State College A nswers Timely Farm Questions Q. How can the poultrynian best approacn ine prohiem ot securing more eggs from his flock? A. Foundation of any good poul try program is the kind of stock purchased. Although careful - feed ing and ' good management are highly important, they will not make good layers out of chicks that do: not have good breeding behind them. With a lieavv demand for chicks anticipated at the be ginning of 1942, poultryme.n would be wise to place their orders as far in' advance as possible. It should be borne in mind that cheap chicks are usually, the man expejn sixe in the long run, and that money spent for breeding quality is .n excellent investment. ' Q. How can a farmer best con serve his woodlands? ;.'.- A. There are any number of things a farmer can do to help protect the State's timber re sources. For fuel wood, he should not cut trees of saw-timber .size and quality, but trees that are crippled, diseased or otherwise de fective. Then, too, he should thin overcrowded stands of your..;; trees ; he should maintain a growing stand by harvesting' timber select ively ; he s.hould utilize all. trees cut; he should prevent forest fires; and he should reforest idle or eroded land. .
