Alaskan reindeer men agree with army observers that unless drastic steps are taken to fully protect the once vast but now shrunken herds the reindeer industry in the north is doomed. The annual loss is from 20.000 to 30,000 deer.

Although fall and winter months generally bring a slump in egg production, there are several easy tricks you can use dn your layers to keep them working harder than ever to fill Uncle Sam's egg quota, to increase your poultry earnings. One is night-lighting whk)i lengthens the hens' laying day. Another is, poultry water warming which keeps water at a drinkable temperature of 50" during cold weather and thus encourages your flock to drink more of the water that builds more and bigger eggs. If you don't already have a poultry water ; warmer, you can easily make one in a short time from the plans below.
