LIGHT AND DAY LENGTH
Just a reminder that the amount of daylight is declining and this may affect your
egg production. This is especially true in open houses. Make sure your time clocks
are working properly if they haven't been used for some time. It might be desirab'le
to have a spare clock in case one fails to work. This may be replaced rather easily
in a few minutes. One should also c'lean the light bulbs frequently to insure the maxi-mum
output of light. This may be done by removing the bu'lbs and wiping them with a wet
rag in some detergent, then drying them with a clean towel. Be sure the bulbs are cool
so they won't break.
Several values to use as guidelines based upon the Las Cruces and Albuquerque sun-rise
and sunset data obtained from the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington follow.
These values are good through 1999 and may vary by not more than 2 minutes from year to
year. One hour must be added for Daylight Saving Time.
Remember, the longest day of the year
21 each year. Thus it is desirable to make
two weeks.
