At western agricHlt ural station
moderate quantities of salt had been
fed 10 poultry with apparent advan-
tase, bat the limitations OF It's use
were not known. A feeding trial was
therefore made with twelve hens TO
get some suggestions as to the az
proximate limit Of its safe feeding 10
mature fowls. For one lot Of hens
salt was mixed in the food, increasing
10 amount by periods OF feeding
until it was fed at the rate of O.63
ounce per day per fowl, nearly one
half pint er day for 100 hens. NO
bad effects were noticed. With thls
amount, however, diarrhea attacked
few of the hens, but the trouble
disappeared when the amount OF salt
In the food was reduced about one
third. When the hens were allowed
free access to boxes Of coarse barrel
salt, not enough was eaten to show
any i'll effect, either by hens that had
