Holding Hens at 50 Per Cent Output As Big a Job As Getting Them There
Jesup, Ta. 18. Poultryman Guy Stoddard explains keeping hens at 50 percent egg production is as hard as reaching that level. He notes feed changes can drop production for six weeks, recalls a past loss, and says old corn mixed with new saved losses. He sells all eggs to a Chicago milk-route operator and uses electric lighting and cod liver oil to boost lay. He provides a home-mixed ration and on-farm grinding to supply his 500 Leghorns.

Odor No Longer An Accurate Test Of Fertilizer Values
Lafayette Indiana January 18 The idea that good fertilizer smells bad and is dark is outdated due to shifts in US fertilizer production toward chemical processing. H R Smalley cites that in 1914 58 percent of nitrogen came from byproducts while in 1925 only 22 percent did. Organic nitrogen is replaced by nitrate of soda byproduct sulfuric acid and atmospheric nitrogen, boosting total nitrogen consumption around 50 percent in 12 to 14 years. Indiana shows average fertilizer now over 22 percent plant food up from 16 percent in 1920. total tonnage up 4 percent while plant food consumption rose 40 percent. Extension services experiment stations manufacturers and the National Fertilizer Association largely drive these gains benefiting farmers.

Plan for Expanded Egg Grading in Tama County
Tama County farms plan further work on graded egg marketing after six meetings led by W. D. Termohlen. Only Gladbrook has a graded egg agency offering premiums for extra quality, while farmers see potential for cooperative shipping to New York or Chicago to boost rates and create a self supporting separate egg-marketing organization. Market margins vary from 8 to 14 cents per dozen by grade, with expectations they will narrow and then rise seasonally, boosting consumer confidence and consumption.
