4 Big Modern Egg Farm
9 -
PART I.
About 40 miles from St. Louis, in old Missouri, is in full blast
one of the most successful and modern of egg farms in this
country.
There are many larger plants in this coun
try. but perhaps none so original and well
planned. To start with, the name of the farm
j s very significant, being “Yesterlaid”—not last
month, as some would have to name their places
to conform with the age and quality of the eggs
sold.
The type ‘of houses used upon this place is
a very noticeable feature, especially to the breed
er of fancy stock to be sold for breeders. These
houses are about 30 by 60 or 70 feet and are
two stories high, and in appearance are like
.rreat Western barns. They contain only tw r o
pens. The houses are. double planked on all
sides to make them comfortable in cold and dis
agreeable weather. Then there are about 50
windows to each house, all double sashed, like
Pullmail' cars, so they may be readily opened in warm or nice
weather to make it almost like out of doors. Half of these
windows are downstairs and half
upstairs.
The ground floor is of con
crete. kept constantly covered
with chaff and cut straw, and
used as scratch pens, being light
and pleasant for that work.
The entire upper floor is used fol
roosting rooms and nothing else. The
tight floor of this upstairs roosting
room is covered with dry sand.
The droppings falling upon this sand
are soon dried out, and no odor arises.
It is not cleaned oftener than once a
month and yet there is but little odor
up there on account of the good ven
tilation. This roosting room is not hot
either, being double walled and covered
overhead, in the attic'with nearly a
foot of dry straw, which is a non-con
ductor of heat. The roosts are placed
about four feet apart anti two feet
above the floor.
Early in the morning the attendant
opens the door leading to the roost
room, lets down the walkway or ladder
and the hens ate soon tiling down to
th? scratch rooms below, when the lad
der is pulled up until roosting time at
night. Not a bird is allowed up there
during the day. These great houses are
divided into but -two pens each about
30 by 30 feet.
1,100 Fowls in a House.
During the height of the breeding
sdason each of these houses contains
2,000 hens and one male to each ten
hens, or 100 males or 550 to each com
partment. just think of it—soo hens
and 50 males all in one bunch! It
would seem that there might be war
between the males. No trouble to
amount to anything is experienced in
this particular. One significant fea
turr- in regard to this Is that pullets
ipaiw up the inhabitants of one house
and hens that of the other; so. with
Judge Marshall will be glad to answer in this department
'lu siions un all points of rearing utility and fancy poultry.
He can not undertake, however, to reply personally to such let

the males, those of one flock are as
nearly the same age as possible to pre
vent any bossism.
At present this farm contains three
of these big houses, but more will be
added as the business grows. R. C.
Lawtrey, formerly instructor in poultry
husbandry at Cornell university. Is the
vice president and general manager.
With such a man at the helm one can
readily imagine the system and scien
tific management that would prevail
upon the Yesterlaid Farm.
The Feeding System.
The feeding is done through great
hoppers placed in the partition between
the pens, and those of the three houses
combined hold a carload of feed so that
the matter of looking after that is re
duced to the minimum. The legular or
standard dry mash is made up as fol
lows:
Wheat bran 240 pounds
Wheat middlings 2140 pounds
Corn meal .. .. 240 pounds
Ground alfalfa 125 pounds
Beef scraps 100 pounds
Salt 8 pounds
Charcoal -. 8 pounds
Linseed oil meal .. ...... . 14 pounds
These foods are bought in large lots
to secure the best posable prices. Mr.
Lawtrey says that corn has been so
high recently that he has cut it out of
his summer mash and made up a
formula as follows:
Wheat bran ... 500 pounds
Wheat middlings 100 pounds
Beef scraps ... .' 25 pounds
Oil meal 25 pounds
In addition to this, They are fed whole
wheat three times a day in the litter.
Buttermilk is bought at nearby cream
eries, diluted with water and given as
a drink. The price varies a little, but
Is usualy about six cents per gallon
This Is a great conditioner as well as
furnishing good nourishment.

To the Superior Court of Said County:
The petition of the Atlanta Taxicab
Company respectfully shows to the court:
1. Petitioner was duly incorporated by
order of this court granted on the 13th
day of November, 1908, and thereafter
Its charter was amended, by order of this
court, on the 24th day of December. 1908.
2. At a meeting of the stockholders of
said corporation, duly’ called for the pur
pose. on the 27th day of August. 1912, a
resolution was adopted by the affirmative
vote of the owners of more than two
thirds of the capital stock of said cor
poration, resolving that the said corpora
tion shall surrender its charter and fran
chise to the state and be dissolved as a
corporation. A duly certified copy of the
resolution, with recital of the vote thereon
as it appears upon the minutes of said I
corporation, will be to the court shown.
3. Petitioner shows that such dissolu
tion may be allowed without injustice to
any stockholder, or to any person having
claims or demands of any character
against said corporation. Its assets are [
reasonably’ worth considerably’ more than
the outstanding valid claims <jnd demands
or creditors, but as a going poncern, it
is rapidly losing money.
Wherefore, petitioner prays for an or- i
der directing the filing of this petition,
the fixing of the time for hearing thereon. *
and directing the advertisement of the |
petition as required by’ law, and finally
for an order dissolving said corporation. :

NEW YORK, Sept. 20. Better cables
than expected caused the cotton market
to open steady, with prices a net gain
of 2 to 6 points over last night's close,
with the exception of October, which
opened 1 point lower. During the first
fifteen minutes of trading good buying
prevailed from different sources with
shorts the chidf buyers and prices
worked on an upward trend, gaining 3 to
8 points.
After the call a suuden unloading move
ment came about and prices dropped an
aggregate of 11 to 15 points in most ac'
tive positions from the opening, or 4 to
6 points under the previous close.
This precipitant realizing seemed in
fluenced to a large extent by the favora
ble weather map and indications for bet
ter weather in Texas and over the belt.
Commission houses and spot interests
were good buyers during the forenoon
trading on reports of storm and heavy
rains in the central and western part of
Texas. It is believed such would dam
age the cotton that is now open and
lower the grade to some extent and the
buying was based upon • these impres
sions. This buying did not stimulate the
market very much, as the bears were in
the ring offering heavily, while spot
houses offered freely. The ring crowd
> seemed to have gone short on this de
| cline and they bought at times.. Prices
i during the afternoon session were practi
cally unchanged from the opening prices.
I white December displayed the most weak
-1 ijess.
At the close the market was steady. I
with prices ranging 4 to 10 points above
the final quotations of Thursday.

-1 cast’was for enormous w'orld’s shipments.

: professionals.
September corn was irregular, starting
higher, but losing %c in a few minutes.
The more deferred months were %c high
er and firm. Shorts were covering in the
1 latter. Longs were selling in the for
' mer.
| Oats were %c to %c higher u’nder a
good demand.
Hog products were better, with a 10c
advance in hogs at the yards.
The professionals in wheat took on too
much of that grain and when they at
tempted to sell out today buyers were not
in evidence and prices declined, Septem
ber going from 92 down to 91%, where It
• closed, showing a net loss for the day of
I %c. The December future, as well as
' the May, closed with gains of % and %c,
: respectively. These, however, sold off %
■ to %c from the best prices of the session.
I There was a small trade in cash wheat,
1 only 20,000 bushels changing hands.
