The passing seasons increase my be
lief that to get eggs if makes far less
difference whether you have Leg
horns or Brahmas, or what special
brand of animal meal you feed, than
whether you look after the details in
feeding, watering and supervision.
When the hens cannot scratch for exer-

ground, they must then have animal
food and an artificial incentive to
scratch. Cut bone is the cream Of ami

the largest possible interest on any

eggs. with plenty of bones. If this is
impossible, liln-dried meals viii be bet
