Judging from the experiences of Manly 'hundreds of poultrymen dur- ing repent years it would seem to be am economical and efficient practice to plan to bring off ap- proximately 25 'per cent. of the total number of checks desired during 1929 as early hatiohed, so abet the pullets drom those hatches will come into egg yield in late July or during August. Such early - hatched Leghorn pullets would reach Bust egg about August 1 and continue in satisfactory production until nxid-Aovember.

Underdraining will also help. ,Sandy soil shnulo be improved, with, a top -dressing ot bood soil or well -rotted manure. Where soil is poor a good fer- tilizer may be made up of: 4 poets sulphate of ammonia, 3 parts acid phosphate, or steamed bone meds, and 1 part muriate of potash. Ap- ply this at the mate of 300 lbs. per acre, or 1 ounce per square Yard of lawn. Work well sato the soil by raking. Tide may be use twice during tlhe growing season, applied during wet. nveather, or anytime where plenty of water Is available. KINDS OF GRASSES TO USE A standard lawn grass mixtu,e consists 05 Kentucky blue grass and white Datdb, clover. This gives for general puagrose the anoet sa- tisfactory lawn. Kentucky blue grass will withstand more drought carets -es cutting and abuse than any lawn gran in, common use. 1n addition it will make a very fine lawn when good treatment is ac- corded, The seed• should be sown In ear- ly spring, or cold -August to Sep. tamiber. It i5 simply sowed breed - cast and raked ire with a fine rake. After this a :good rolling is desir- able„ followed by a good watering If possible, Sow the seed at the rate. of foul- to ourto six bushels per acre of Kentee- kiy blue, to which may be added one to two pounds, of white Dutch clover, and sometimes a bushel of timothy is added to give results the 'first year.
