. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. 14 ®he *3rccbcx: tmJ> giptfrtsmittt [February^, 1903 Poultry Experiments. The Cornell Experiment Station of >"ew York undertook tlie investigation o! some farm egg production experiments last winter. The experiments began on December 1st and continued seventeen weeks to March 29th. There were 2133 hens and pullets in- cluded in the experiments. The intention was to determine the food cost of eggs during the winter months. The results are figured on the basis of each hundred hens so as to make them plainer. The average of one hundred hens in seventeen weeks lay 22}£ dozen of eggs, at a cost of 16} i cents per dozen. The average cost of food was 32>£ cents per eacli lot) fowls, and the seventeen- weeks' profit on each 100 fowls was $23.92. According to this, the average earnings of 100 hens for an entire year would be $72.80; but as the hardest time of year was taken for the experiment, it is safe to say that 100 hens in New York State will pay the farmer cash for all food consumed and a profit besides of $100 per year. Although considerable differeni.es ex- isted in profits of different lots, it was not a breed test. Although the average of eggs laid by each 1 0 hens was 22.5 dozen, they varied from 9.3 dozen to 36.1 dozen. The food cost of eggs ranged from 8 7 cents to 33.9 cents per dozen. The profits ranged from $1.S0 to $62.10 per 100 hens for the period of seventeen ' weeks. The hens that laid the most eggs pro- duced: them at the least cost per dozen. These which lay the most eggs did not cost over much to feed. The lot of pullets laying 36.1 dozen eggs ] cost the same to feed as a lot of hens that j t 9 3 dozen eggs. In the results the pullets outlay the ( hens, outranking them in profits, in EOme case? six and seven to one. A lot of White Leghorn hens made a total profit of $G.SS for the 100 hens in I seventeen weeks. Three lots of White Leghnrn pullets made profits amounting to $3S.77, $43.98 and $62 10. The
