A detailed account of the methods
of feeding poultry in the use at the
Maine Station is given in Circular No.
All of that Station, entitled, Poultry
Management at the Maine station.
Other ration formuae for fowls are
given in all books on poultry hus-
bandry and in bulletins published by
agricultural experiment stations in the
various states and by the Department
of Agriculture in Washington.
Size Uniformity in Feeding.
In feeding fowls in f1ocks it is i'm
portant, in accordance with the princi-
pie of individuality, to select the
birds which are to make up a flock
SO that they will be as uniform a lot
as possible in respect to size, stage of
development, etc. Careful grading in
this way in putting birds into the lay
ing house pays in the egg basket. The
more nearly uniform in structure and
habit the component units of a flock
are, the more will the effect of indi-
viduality be minimized.
In conclusion it may be said that
while the poultry business is not a
gold mine, not a get-rich- quick scheme
1t is legitimate business. When prop
erly conducted it will pay liberal in
terest on the investment of capital and
labor. The keynote to success in it is
to begin in a very modest way, and
only enlarge the plant, if it be en-
larged at all, as the fundamental prin-
ciples of breeding and management are
thoroughly mastered. Chickens are not
machines. They are living creatures.
A poultry plan is not a factory. 1t
partakes much more of the nature of
a girls boarding school with strong
leaning on the part of it's inhab itants
towards suffragette doctrines. Poul-
try management is a biological prob
lem and to be successful must have
due regard to fundamental biological
principles.

The proportions in which these diff

differ to a considerable extent amons
different poultrymen. The exact pro
portions in which they are given real
ly matters very little, owing to the
fact, already brought out, that the
hen compounds her own ration to hel
own taste if given the material. Fur
thermore it makes little difference
whether the ground grains are fed dry
or wet. 1t is cheaper to feed then
dry because of labor saved), ant
therefore the "dry-mash system" Of
feeding has become popular.
