GAST $ OF LLY. apan The overhead for shipping through the pool is vory low, running not over four cents a pound for everything. Of course, a great deal of help in weighâ€" Ing, packir and loading is voluntary, which is a big factor in keeping down the overhead. Prices are pooled for each grado, but an initial payment of fifteon cents a pound is made for all grades in all c‘asses of pou.try. ‘ Ths marketing of live hens en!ledl‘ out of farm flocks has not been quita as successful as marketing the other enough so that the pouitry can go to the Eastern markets in time for thke holiday trade. completed 1/ x lecture : tening and 1 ket.

The coâ€" operation of the merchants in the small towns is a big factor in the sucâ€" cess of these pools. A.l small producâ€" ers can have their eggs assembled and shipped to the pool in case lw the merchant, thus reducing the porâ€" tation charges considerably. The merâ€" chant receives, packs and ships the eggs for them at a charge of one cent per dozen, which comes out of the final payment of each pool. The merchant may also receive and ship eggs from nonmembers, so that through the proâ€" ducers‘ contracts and through the merchants‘ contracts it is possible to gather up the eggs produced on aimost every farm in a district. The merâ€" chant does no: candle any of the eggs he handles. All this work is done at the egg stations ‘ocated at five points Manitobs of eggs handling MAn a 0 markeling .ive hens. The organization is incorporated and is governed by a board of direcâ€" tors elected from different zones in the province. All the organization work in deveeping new centres is done by a paid official, who devotes his who‘e time to. the work of the association. The work of giving instruction on fatâ€" tening and preparing the poultry for market and the grading of the product on marketing days is done by governâ€" ment officials. The association has its own egwâ€"cand.ing stations and its own cand‘ers, but a carload lots of eggs shipped out are inspected by governâ€" ment inspectors. _ The culling and grading of irve hens is also done by the government officiais.

The fact that each of the three provinces now has a wellâ€"estab.ished poultry pool is sufficient evidence of the popularity of this method of marketing pou.try products.

September pastures can easily be supâ€" plemented with green corn and secondâ€" growth legumes. A good grain mixâ€" ture shou‘d also be fed. I suggest the fo.lowing as an example: Three hunâ€" dred pounds of wheat bran, 200 pounds of corn meal or hominy, 300 pounds of g‘uter feed and 200 pounds of linâ€" seod or cottonseed oil meal.â€"E. S. S. is lowest in November. In this case the figures are influenced more by the groster number of springâ€"freshening cows, but the trerd during the summer is down just the same. R The period when the test price for milk prevais generally is during Noâ€" vember, â€" December _ and _ January. Thersfore, good feedine is advisab‘e during September if thks cows are to go into the barn in good flesh and give a geod account in the winter. over a fiveâ€"foot fence. Clipping the: wings in this way not only keeps the birds at home but makes them much| more gent‘le and peaceful. It has the further advantage of diuc'ourazingt them from flight, which does not allow | them to develop the flying habit. One | clipping of the wing as outlined willl last until the birds molt the following summer and fall, at which time it is | rare‘y necessary to cip them again, for on account of the fact that they: have not developed the habit of fight , they bear confinement with little unâ€": easiness andâ€" with litt‘e effort to; escape. The building of an expensive; fence is not necessary even with such | birds as Leghorns, because when the| wings are properly clipped a fiv&foot} fence wiil turn them. beeding; and if the outer flight feathâ€"‘ ers of one wing are clipped, it will so ; unba‘ance the birds when they attempt ‘ flight that they will not be able to | navigate in the air sufficiently to flyl Fall Feeding for Dairy Cows. Much annoyance is often caused to the pouitryman, especialy where he keeps the light Mediterranean breeds, by their flight over the fences and escaping from their inclosures or yards. This is especially aggravating if their escape causes them to be a nuisance to neighbors or if by getting their freedom from the yards or Th poultry pool as yet controls only a part of the trade in pouitry products. The movement is new and on‘ly a limited number of districts are served. The poltcy of expansion has been to develop old territory to its highest efficiency and then to add new districts only after thorough organâ€" ization. % A brief survey of the operation of the Manitoba poultry pool shows that from a small start five years ago, the membership of the Coâ€"operative Marâ€" keting Association has grown from 715 members in 1922 until, by the time the 1926 operations are compleed, the membership will be over $,000. From the first of April to the @nd of June this year the five poo‘ls have handled 75 cars of eggs that were reâ€" ceived from approximate‘y 1,400 shipâ€" pers. The value of the egg product for five pools for the three months of April, May and June amounted to $219,000. Keeping the Pullets at Home. two lines of pou.try products. For one thing the MAfference in prices between marketing through the pool and marâ€" keting in the o.d way is not so big as in eggs and dressed poultry and the farmers are therefore jess enthusâ€" lastic.
