Early Chicks Are
More Profitable
T;ir Heel poult rymen can earn
I extra money by starting chicks in
December, January, of February,
; rather than later in the season, be
lieves T. B. Morris, poultry spec
ialist for the State. College Exten
sion Service.
Early-hatched chicks, says Mor
ris, will be in production in the
early summer when the old hens
in the flock are slowing clown in
production. The young pullets
production. The young pullets will
have good egg si/e bv the time
egg prices start rising, since prices
are usually highest from June 1
to December 31.
Producing both early and late
broods also will enable the poul
trvman to make better use of his
buildings,' equipment, and range,
Morris points out. This will lower
the cost per pullet. In addition,
two broods a year will insure a
more even supply of eggs to fur
nish the markets throughout the
year.
One question often asked about
early-hatched pullets is Don’t
they have a tendency to go into a
molt during the fall? Morris says
this is to be expected, but if extra
care is given the pullets in the fall
this problem should be overcome
or reduced to a minimum. This ex
tra care usually includes the use
of electric lights to increase the
working day to about 13 hours and
feeding wet mash or pellets to
help control the molt.
Early-hutched chicks can be
profitably, insists Morris.
The specialist adds that before
placing orders for next year's lay
ers, the poultryman should give
some thought to the breeding be
hind the chicks. These future
pullets should he from production
bred stock with a pullorum-clean
or pullorum-passed rating. Orders
should be placed early so the poul
tryman will be sure to get these
better-bred chicks.
Make Soil Tests
Every Five Years
—$—
Soil should he tested about eve
ry four or five years. This is fre
quent enough to keep the soil at
the propel lime level and allows
the fanner to determine if his
fertilization program is adequate
for his crop rotation.
The supply of lime, phosphorus,
or potash in the soil does not
change rapidly. Hence soil testing
should be considered on a long
time basis. For example, if a soil
is low in potash the crops will
need a high potash fertilizer I'oi
a few years.
Complete directions for taking
soil samples may be obtained from
any county farm agent.
