Two Hen Breeds
By ANDREW DIXON
This is a report on the Exeter
District High School agricultural
■project for 1951-52.
In the fall and winter of
1951-52 we kept two flocks of
hens at the Exeter District High
School with the intention of
comparing their productiveness.
This is a record of our findings.
The pens in which the birds
were kept were located side by

In
26 Vi-Cross pullets and
larger one we placed 30
Island Reds. Two Rhode
roosters were in each pen. These
birds were hatched on

They were raised on
farm and put in the

and the Reds on October 31.
The birds were cared for
the Grade IX students being
at 9 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. Purina
Breeders Mash was before the
birds all the time, scratch grain
was fed morning and night and
the water was changed twice
daily. The same caretakers
looked after the two flocks,
’three boys 'being in charge of
the birds for a period of one
week. Night lights were auto

died of a growth in the aliment

badly diseased liver.
We sold the eggs to the Lake
view Hatchery, those from the
Reds being used for hatching
purposes. On April 1 we sold the
hens. The Reds were sold as
meat and the Vi-Cross as layers.
The production of both pens
was consistently good. As can be

Guide Talk
Well, this was a very special
week wasn’t it? It’s a long time
since two commissioners have
paid a visit to the first Exeter
Guides at one time.
Norma Neal, leader of
Bluebird Patrol introduced
new guide to Captain and to
guides who are in the patrol,
and the patrol showed how very
pleased it was to have her.
—Captain

May we take this opportunity
to thank all the parents for
showing such an interest in our
Brownie work and are sorry that
in the commotion at the end we
were not able to speak to you all
but
the
like
and
some of the equipment needed
to, complete the ceremonies.
As for the Brownies we are
really proud of the way you
conducted yourselves and believe
me we were just as frightened
as you were. Special congratula
tions to the girls enrolled and
the girls receiving tyheir Golden
Bars. As for Donna, a Grand
Howl to you for being the first
to fly to Guides and may you
always be as good a Guide as
you were a model Brownie and
the best of luck in your new
adventures. We hope there will
be nine girls following in your
footsteps in the near future.
See you all next week at the
regular time and remember to
keep wearing that Brownie
Smile. Bye for now from your
Brown Owl, Lillian Hunter-
Duvar and your Guider, .Trudy
Pickard.
