It has been demonstrated many times, good yearling hens can be brought back to profitable production after a shotr rest following their moult. At the present time, in order to send all the Canadian eggs required by Bri­ tain, the objective is to have a full hen house on every farm. By retaining all the good yearling hens this objective will be more readily attained. With proper care and proper feed, healthy, vigorous yearling hens can be profit­ able producers. Poultrymen are advised to cull their yearling hens with the idea of retain­ ing birds capable of profitable produc­ tion through the fall and winter months. Only those birds which are obviously done as layers should be culled out and marketed. Arrangements should be made to house yearlings and pullets separately. Older birds always pick on younger birds and egg production suffers. Where it is not possible to house them separately it may be possible to sell good yearlings to neighbours who> have extra housing space, at meat prices.
