FARM
POULTRY
HOPPER FEEDING THE SAFEST
Saves Time and Avoids Upsettina Dt
gestlon Of FowIs-Mash Mixtures
Used by Breeders.
By E. X. PARKINSON, Farm Manage

10y u. n. RAHhlNSON, farm manage
ment Expert. Copyright. 1sl4)
The two principal objects Of hopper
feeding are to save time and avoid up
setting the digestion of fowls from
careless feeding.
On large commercial plants-in fact
on any farm where poultry are kept in
considerable numbers-time is money
and must be saved, so by degrees the
hopper has come to be used univer
sally. The usual materials are fed in
it., but mixed in bulk and put into
hoppers dry in sufficient quantities to
last several days. There are some who
object to hopperJ, fearing they attract
rats, mice, sparrows, ETC., and that
fowls eat less freely of dry mash and
consequently do not lay as well The
first of these objections is overcome by
using metal hoppers with lids. These
may be purchased from any poultry
supply house. The second objection is
true, but the slight loss of eggs is of
set by saving in the time spent in feed.
ing.
There are, Of course, those who have
made great success with poultry
feeding cooked mashes, and in such
cases it is inadvisable to change. But
where feeding is done by hired man,
who is apt to be careless in keeping
feed troughs clean and well scalded or
allowing the mash to stand until sour,
upsetting the digestion of entire
fiocks and causing loss in the egg
yield, the change to the hopper meth
cd will prove beneficial
For those who think Of changing
from the old to the new method per
haps few of the dry mash mixtures
used by successful poultry breeders
may prove helpful. A well tried one
consists of coarse wheat bran, 200
pounds; cornmeal, 100 pounds; ground
oats, 100 pounds; gluten meal, 100
pounds; middlings, rs pounds; feeding
flour, rs pounds; fine beef scraps, 80
pounds, and fish scraps, 80 pounds. For
Leghorns the following has been found
good: Cornmeal, go pounds; wheat
middlings, so pounds; wheat bran, 30
pounds; alfalfa meal, 10 pounds; oil
meal, 10 pounds; beef scrap, so pounds
and table salt 10 pounds. The Maine
experiment station recommends wheat
bran, 200 pounds; cornmeal, 100
pounds; middlings, 100 pounds; gluten
meal, 100 pounds; linseed meal, 10G
pounds; beef scrap, 100 pounds. A
breeder of Plymouth Rocks has had
good results from the following:
Wheat bran, 200 pounds; wheat mid.
dlings, 100 pounds; cornmeal, 10C
