To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That's the real secret. I use trap nests and keep a strict record of every egg laid be- tween October ist and June ist. In making up my breeding pens for the following year I select only the best winter layers — those giving the highest records (as pullets) during the months men- tioned. I discard all pullets that do not lay in January. Each year these trap-nest trials are repeated, and in this way each year I strengthen the ability of the stock to give good results in winter eggs. Pullets hatc...hed between April ist and May 15th should lay well during December and January — they certainly will if properly grown. A well-known poultry authority has the following remarks to make on this interesting subject: "Much has been said and written regarding the keeping of hens or pullets for winter layers, and as yet the question is as far from being answered as it was years ago. Those who have taken care of their year-old hens, looked after them during the spring and summer and watched over them during the molting season, are a unit in saying that hens in their second year are the most profitable, while those who neglect them and allow them to get in poor condition complain and say they do not lay so well as pullets." I am not ready to endorse that, for certainly a two-year-old hen cannot have sufficient control and strength to produce the number of eggs that a pullet, with all the vigor of youth, can command.
