FEED CHICKENS IN SUMMER
There Are Few Farm Flocks That viii
Not Improve In Egg-Laying "
Given Some Grain.

The very common opinion that
farm fiocks need no grain feed In
summer Ia seldom warranted. The
farm range is valuable, and there is
no place where eggs can be produced
as economically. but there are few
flocks that will not improve in egg
yield II given at least one feed daily
1t ought not to be difficult to de
termine whether more feed is needed.
Something depends on the size of the
flock and the range. but the egg yield
will tell. There is only one probable
explanation for a farm hens failure
to lay eggs in summer, and that Is
lack of feed. Occasionally il is due to
n lack of the right kind of feed. but
generally II the hens have one feed
daily OF any grain they will give good
results.
Wheat, barley and oats are the
practical summer grains, but II little
care is used and some meat, corn Is
very good Whatever grain is used II
is genuine economy to give the hens
access to dry bran. An open shallow
box will do If you haven't time to make
regular feed hopper No poultry
man or farmer is feeding TO the best
advantage who does not feed bran.

What are our chances and what Is
