There are three well known
causes ‘for dcci'cus`cd egg produc- tion duriug the suuiniei- scnson. First, thc hens bccoiiic hruody and Liiercfore stop laying; secon- dly, thc poultry keeper, cspcciuily thc farnicr who has hens on range assumes tiiut they will get abun- dant feed, which is not true; ihirdly, it is true that there are inany poorhcns tiiutiuck capacity i`or ogg production, which can lay but during n short season. On the whole however. the drop in ogg production is ii. condltioii over which tho poultry kecpcr has some control and might be main tained much better than it is to the fhmncliil :idvaiitngc of those owning thc flocks.
To this cud, first, ‘broody hens

Will thc daughter of ii high pro-

This study of chiirsctcr otf offspring comprises many feat- ures which are not only interesting ivut instructive to the brecdcr.
There is but little doilnlto infor-
mation on the subject and improve ment, even by the most careful se- lection and attention to the laws ofdieredity, cannot be made _in leaps and 'houndsexcept in ln- stances .where the animals are very pcor to 'start wi-th. it is useful. however. to know the little that has been discovered on the subject in order to progress inthe
