Gather Eggs Oftener Eggs should be gathered at least twice a day, and three times daily is better during hot weather. The time of one gathering should he just before dark or as near to It as prac- I tieable. This last gathering may not produce a great number of eggs, but since broody bet will common- ly search otit the le et contaieing eggs after day's laylue hes ceased, failure to gatber late in the day is. a common source of distinet deterior- Each gathering should be placed 'in the coolest part of the cellar if no other snot is available, as seen " as gathered.

Chickens on Range C1ickens require less attention while ou range than at any other time, and, if a few simple precau- tions are taken, clean. grass ur clover range will provide ideal con- ditions for producing well -grown vigorous stock with a minimum a- mount of labour and expense. At the Damietta Experimental Station, Fredericton, N.B., the sexes are separated when the chickens are from 6 to 9 weeks of age. The brooder houses are moved to a clover sod area on which there were no chickens for at least One year and the chickens are confined to a yard unel they are between three and four months of age. The; are then moved to a range on which theer were no chickens the previous year. A pasture field or a meadow from which an early crop if hay has been taken is ideal for this purpose. Range shelters constructed of two inch material and inclosed with wire fleeting provide sufficient ,bet- ter and allow ample veutilatien for as many birds for which roosting space is provided A feed hopper which Is protected with a roof to lo- cated near the range shelter If the Heide are need for pa01tre for livte stcvk, tt tcmporat'y fence, which Provides ueetss only to chiek. 115 is built around tae reed ht'pper, Water is supplkd 1u u•eugh.s, '1itis method of watering is 1)11 1)10l)le to alio ••. fug the birds t-) drink fr„nt or creeks, as 11000 t)ia e8 1n1)t:r eclutttih:^t1s whir•11 are Ltrc.atranl, i,.1• the' 6I ladiit) ur Sugar Beet Crop The cnmtnete),U meal' brut- crop of Suuttl-tre,ttorn th y:10o, cttt:).olgil seeded late, developed very v. t i lly and the operation of bloeltin; and Nutting was practically comejel.•, by the end of .lune, The heavy rain- fall and favourable growing w•'.l1er of late May and ell through June brought the major portion of the fields to the thinning stage at the sane Bute, lull c'ausetl great pt•es- s01•e on the labour supply.
