Inherited Traits Are Important In Poultry Some of the most important fac tors in success with poultry are the inheritable characteristics in birds. This is why poultry authorities al ways stress good breeding, said Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry department at State College. The age at which birds mature sexually, the rate of egg production, the size of the eggs, the ability to continue laying for a long time, and the hatchability of fertile eggs laid by the birds are among the inherit You Can Get These Specials at - -1 MORGAN'S $ DEL MONTE BARTLETT PEARS DEL MONTE GRAPE FRUIT JUICE FANTANA Salt Crackers Pound Pkg.

By 1 culling out inferior birds and breeding only those which have the desirable traits, poultrymen can build up good flocks that will pay big dividends through the years. When birds mature early, he said, they start laying early, and the sooner they start laying, the sooner they start returning a profit to the poultryman. The rate of egg production means the number of eggs a bird will lay during her laying period. Those which lay irregularly cannot be as profitable as those which lay every day. The size of the eggs is also im portant, as poultrymen who sell uni formly large eggs get better prices than those who sell small ones. The hatchability of fertile eggav which apparently is inherited, is of obvious importance, Dearstyne con tinued. Likewise, the ability to continue, laying for a long time is a vital fac tor in determining the profitableness of a bird. Early feathering is another inher itable trait that is of great impor tance in the production of broilers. sue Large Can 25C 2 Cans BURCH Fig Bars Pound 2 Cans ISC 2 Cans Lovely Jell Six Flavors 4 Pkgs, OUR MOTHER'S Pure Cocoa 2 Lb.
