Fausch) NEBRASKA BREEDER OF RHODE ISLAND REDS ACHIEVES SUCCESS When Mrs. A1. Arnold of Inavalc purchased Walter Hogan's book sev eral years ago, entitled "The Call of tho Hen" and began to study it thoroughly and als read every article on chickens that eho could get hold of, she littlo realized that her name Would nippear irftlio hqnpr. rolls of the. National Egg iuyinari Contest conducted bjrtlit .University tfi Neb raska and that her trusty single comb Rhode Isluud Reds would make tc- cords stamping them as real egg pro ducers. The honors in egg produc tion wen by tho Arnold flock simply illustrates the fait that tho men nnd women ywho achieve success along various Uncs are the ones who study their business nnd that the uso of books, newspapers and farm papers are all a real help, iii fact a necessity in achioving success. REAL RECORDS ACHIEVED We have spoken in these columns before of tho Nutional Egg Laying contest held under the auspices of the poultry department of the University of NebrasUh. This contest is an annual affair, the year begining on November 1. An entry in the con test consists of a pen of 10 fowls. These fowls arc all leg banded and an individual record is kept of each individual. Several states besides Nebraska arc repiescntod in tho con test. On September 1 tho contest having been on for 10 months, the repdits showed that during that 10 months two t-f Mr. Arnold's pen of Rhode Island Reds were among the 10 lea I'ng ogg ptoducers in the con test. One of these occupied skth place with 21G eggs :nd the other was seventh plico with 2l.ri egg.'. The August iccords of this year also shnv that her bird leg handed C 11 !idd 29 eggs for the mouth which is an exceptional tecord. One of her birds known as O G05 achieved real honors in tho 1920 1921 contest, laying 28G eggs in 3G5 days. Frcmt the 30th of April to the the 10th of July this hen only missed five days and was the only hen in the contest to lay 30 eggo in one month, this month being June. GETTING STARTED IN POULTRY "I had no very good reason for choosing the Reds," writes Mrs. Ar nold, "I thought them a very pretty chicken and they wbre just beginning to be a popular breed here. I could have gotten swne eggs of those yel low Reds with dark necks, then I saw some of the real Reds, so I hunted until I found 15 pure dark red pullets. I also secured two cockerels and that was my start. I got Hogan's book. "The Call ofthc Hen", nnd studied it and began to cull, reading every chicken article that I could find. I do this yet and try everything that seems reasonable." "In selecting pullets for breeding I keep only those with three finger capacity and thin straight lay bones. Usually I commence selecting and banding the earliest maturing and best look'ng pulletsiin September. By the month of November there are quite a number of the cemimriy best. Then the culling and test ng begins and tho handling .with difCer ent colored leg bauds. 1 oand tho 1-year-olds and the 2-ycar-olds, using a different colored leg band for cacli year. I can thus tell at a glance just how old unv chicken is in my flock. If one goes broody in Jan uary or February, she is sold, or if by the middle of the summer she has wanted to set three times, she is marketed." DISTINGUISHING THE PRO DUCERS "I put a green band on the ieg above the year band every time a hen proves to be a good layer. If a good layer, she is kopt the third year, for she will produce good layers. Now by sending pullets to theegg laying contest, I can be more certain and get cockerels for breeding from Jhe high producing hens wbo will produce high egg production pullets." Mrs. Arnold states that for scracch feed, she uses the formula advised by tho extension division of the state university; two parts of cracked corn sifted, one part of oats, one of barley and one of wheat for the flock and all of the older chickens. For the younger chickens, she uses less of the oats and barley and moro of the wheat. In handling the baby chicks, Mrs. Arnold starts with sand and sour milk. Then the chicks are given rolled oats, fine commercial feed, then the coarser commercial feed nnd tnen her own mixture. They are also given all of the milk that they will drink. By the time they are a week old, they are eating mash which is kept bofore them at all times. THE POULTRY HOUSE "My houses are all of the shed type," says Mrs. Arnold, "they foce the south and have the whole front bpou. In summor. In winter, glass windows arc used and muslin, more muslin being used than glass. The inside equipment consists of dropping boards on the north side with remov able 2x2 roasts a shelf for drinking vessels and self feeders nt tho ends, of the rooms and n cement floor cov ered with a deep straw litter. When it comes to controlling disease, I do not seem to bo very successful and so I generally kill and bury every one that looks or nets sick, both old and young. I have had no exporlenco at poultry shows never having shown any bii-ds except one at tho Farmers', Institute. Showing does not .appeal ta.'ma although won two first end pne.

Nat urally, you want to see the most of the best scenery in America en route. The logical route is the Bur lington (in connection with the Denver & Rio Grande Western and Western PaciEic) because it takes you right through Denver, the Pike's Peak Region, Royal Gorge, scenic Colorado, Salt Lake City and the Grand Canyon of the Feather River in the beautiful Sierra Ne vada range. Then if you retnrn by way of the great Pacific North west (Yellowstone or Glacier Park line), Minneapolis-St. Paul and the Burlington's Mississippi River Scenic Line, you put a ring around the Golden West-the most won derful trip in America. Rail rates are the same via all Western lines. Therefore, you have something to gain and nothing to lose by inves tigating before completing your plans. Let me tell you more about the Burlington's more-travel-com-fort-at-the-8ame-cost service. N. B.
