Are Birmingham women afraid to speak
their minds about their husbands?
Or
Are they just too modest to boast of the
virtues and honor of their own particular
lords and masters?
Or
Well-what is 1t, anyway?
Not long ago a we'll known Chicago
journal published a story containing
list of virtues that go to make up the

It was copied In the papers all over

FEEDING HENS WHEAT ALONE
Grain Does Not Contain Egg-Making
Materials in Proper Proportion
Corn Is Even Worse.

Some years ago Prof. James Dry
den delivered an address before the
Utah Farmers institute, from which,
this extract is worthy of reproductions:
"a short study of the composition
Of wheat and of eggs will explain why
a profitable egg yield cannot to be ex-
pected from wheat alone. Surprising
you feed a hen which weighs 3.5
pounds 1926 ounces OF wheat day.
"Of course, a hen of that weight
would not long consume it's weight
of wheat alone Surprising, further,
then the hen uses 2.75 ounces Of that
for the maintenance OF the body; that
leaves half an ounce to be conveyed
into eggs, assuming that all food is
digested. which, OF course, is not the
case. In half an ounce of wheat there
is about .06 of an ounce Of protein.
So that assuming that the hen con-
sumes and digests 3.25 ounces c2
wheat per day; and that she uses
2.75 ounces of that for maintenance
OF her body, there is available each
day just one-fourth enough egg pro-
tein for an egg. 5
TN other words, it will take four
days to get the necessary amount OF
protein for one egg. But the egg has
other constituents; so has wheat. The
half ounce OF wheat contains about
one and one-half times as much car
bohydrates and fat as one egg con-
tains. The hen fed on wheat alone
has surplus of one material. In
other words, she has enough car
bohydrates and fat to make an egg
and half day, but she has only pro-
tein enough to make one egg in six
days. You place the hen In an awk
ward position by feeding her wheat
alone.
Wheat does not contain the egg
making materials in proper proper
tion. Corn is even worse than wheat
in this respect"
