eggs, but with liberal runs and plenty
Of litter in which they must scratch
for the greater part of their feed, gen
erOus feeding will stimulate egg pro-
dUctiOn and not fat production. Breed
ers in the cities are usually forced to
keep their focks in runs too small
and are usually short on litter and they
do carry the risk of having their fowls
take on fat instead % producing eggs.
Set Rules ImpracficabIe.
Then, again, in the very nature of
things, it is impossible to lay down any
rule as to the quantity of feed which
should be given a flock on account of
many varied conditions. Such factors
IS the weather the rate OF egg pro-
dUctiOn and the size Of the individual
hens enter into the question to such
an extent that what would be correct
quantity for one flock would be wrong
for another. and what would be right
one day would be wrong the next. A
flock will eat more in cold weather
than in warm, a hen laying % eggs
month more than one not laying at all,
and a large men viii eat more than a
small one, other conditions being equal
just as a Norman horse will eat more
than a Shetland pony.

saw a pOultryman in the valley beat
ing up broken crockery with a ham,
mer for his fowls, and they would
actually eat it. OF course, they ate it
because they were dying for grit, but
I think derived little benefit from it.
How much easier and better it would
have been to crush or break up rocks
for them from which they could get
both the grinding effects and mineral
constituents.

These butchers scraps are probably
the best ''grubs' to be had in this
section, but the supply is always linn
tied In colder climates than ours,
where flesh can be kept indefinitely,
poultrymen buy worthless horses or
cattle, kill them and feed to their
flOcks With US q man would have
to have a very large flock to justify
this practice, as much of the flesh of

agricultural experiment stations have
given the subject much attention, with
the result that the theories Of feeding
advanced by many successful poultry
men have been confirmed in the main.
though some important facts have been
brought out and it is confidently ex-
pected that, in the course Of time, as
their experimentation is further prose-
cuted they will evolve rules for feed
ing under which greater results may
be attained, both from the standpoint
Of economy and of number of eggs
produced.
In many sections, and particularly
IN spring and summer, where poultry
are given free range, but little atten-
ton need be paid the question of
variety, for there is to be found on this
range, practically all the variety
needed. With US in the FL PasO Coun-
try, however, and particularly in the
city, the queSt of variety must
necessarily receive very especial at
tentlOn for the reason that unless an
alfalfa range is provided our fowls get
nothing except what we give them. and
we must give them variety. This va
r1ety has been designated by a popular
lecturer on poultry topics as the four
Gs-grits. grains, greens and grubs
With our hillside friends there is never
a scarcity of grits, but nothing in the
way of the last three Gs. In the val
ley can be found these, but a scarcity
of grit. It has always seemed to me
that the valley was the place for
poultry ranch, and I remarked this to
man in Grand View keeping 1000 Leg
horn hens. He said he saw no reason
why the hill should be better, but he
knew to a certainty that every failure
which had been recorded against the
poultry business in this section had
been in the valley and on that account
he took to the hill. He was right.
The failures have been in the valley
and I believe they have been due to an
absence of grit to which the fowls
had had access. We're I to start a
poultry plant on the alluvial valley
land I would place a rock crUsher on
the plant before I put a single chicken
on it and I would haul rock to it by

M soaring sky high, the question
Of feeding the flock for great
est production is an interesting one,
and as large majority Of the small
poultrymen Of this particular section
are more or less novitiates there are
two questions which would naturally
suggest themselves to the mind of
each Of them: First, What shall I
feed my hens2' and second, How much
feed should be given them daily?"
Neither one Of these questions can be
answered definitely, and yet we can
take the two together and in a way
answer both in the two words. variety
and abundance. There is never any
danger Of giving too great a variety
Of feed, and if a flock is kept active
and made TO work for what they get,
you need have no fear of giving them
too much Upon these two factors
rests successful feeding for egg pro-
ductiOn.

study is to keep their pens from taking

fraudulent act, and subject to penalty.
Growers should place tags under
