flock was In full laying by tho end
of that month. Beginning with Do-
combor and for tho remaining of
tho 12 months tho flock maintained
a steady production without varia
tion, winter gr summer.
Thoro was somo little culling out
at tho ttmo that tho pullbts bogan to
lay, but on Novembor 1, 1920. tho
flock numbered 190 birds. By Oct.
31, 1921, tho flock had boon reduced
by culling to 120 birds, tho most ot
tho culling bolng done in Soptombor
and Octobor of tho prosont year.
Tho average per month was flgurod
and Ihe avorngo of tho 12 ruontliB
takon. In that way any orror duo
to tho reduction in tho numbor of
pullets through tho year was obvla
od. With tho reduction of tho flock
from 190 to 120, Mr. Cary and assoc
iates considered that thoy havo n

"Naturally tho cockerels did not
pay ovon for thomsolvcs," said Mr.
Cary, "At 30 cents a pleco as initial
cost of tho chicks it is clear that
thoro was no prlfit in tho cockorols,
In facl thoy woro .raised at a loss,
though thoy mado good gains nnd
wo ovon had a cockorol that wolghod

tho cockorols havo accoss to buttor-

Asked whothor ho thought thai
tho poultry business would be over
done, Mr. Cary said: "I think not.

Thoro Is a good living In keeping
