Springtime throughout Winter Months ducks. Don’t wish for it—have it. Here is a letter giving the experience of a poultrykeeper in England. As you know, English conditions are pretty severe, and the winter of 1926-27 was no exception. We are purposely quoting this letter because (1) the laying performance specially referred to was achieved during the worst four months of an English winter ; and (2) an achievement of this nature in this period must necessarily has-e a greater significance to New Zealand poultry owners who are looking for eggs during the next few months. Frankly, no one should remain a “ Doubting Thomas ” after reading this letter. Don't hesitate any longer. Have eggs in abundance by commencing right away with Karswood Poultry Spice (which contains dried and ground insects). The cost is negligible—a ong shilling packet being sufficient for 20 birds for 16 days. Eighteen Eggs per Bird Per M onth Right Through Winter 1 thought you would like to know the result of 12 month’s lay of six White jjegtuh n hens J have. They were hatched in April, 1926.

Counting the four winter months from November 8, 1926, to March 7, 1927, the six laid 454 eggs. R. SKELTON, 7 Bent Street, Briefly Hill, Staffs.
