WHEN TO FEED POULTRY FOOD.

There is a prevailing notion with a
certain class Of poultrymen that it
doesn't pay to force laying fowls dur
ing the warm summer months-that
they will get along very well with OF
binary food and what they can pick
up about the yards. That this opinion
is not shared by the most progressive
poultrymen is shown by the fact that
not long ago the manufacturers Of
pages Perfected Poultry Food" in
quired of some of the prominent poultry
breeders of New England as to what
they considered the best time in which
to feed this food. d. ]. Lambert Of
Apponaug, r. l., who is famous as a
breeder of high class poultry and one
Of the best known in New England,
answered as follows: 1--WE feed Pages
Poultry Food every month in the
year"
