is, supplied in suitable hopper when
chicks are a week old If it is desired
to force the chicks rapidly, feed the
mash moistened, once a day and give
less of the cracked grains.
Other simple mixtures which can be
used for smamll chicks are:

8 lbs. cracked wheat.
2 lbs cracked corn.
2 lbs. steel-cut oats.

MASH.

lbs. oat meal without hulls).
6 lbs. cornmeal.
lbs. shorts.
l ID. good fish meal or beef scrap.
Variety of Feeds Used.
After the chicks are a month old,
gradually increase the animal matter,
preferably a mixture of fish and beef
scrap, to ID per cent. For growing
chicks. until they are about three
months Old, variety of combinations
in grains might be used. The follow
ing should be found satisfactory:

The Cornell growing chick ration
for range stock is:

One pound of bone meal is added to

ture of mash. This is usually fed in
a hopper. Give the mash moistened,
once per day. if you desire to hasten
the growth of the chick.
Feeding Broilers.
Where chicks are raised Tor broilers
they should be fed the same as other
chicks for the first three weeks. Then
the idea is to produce plump carcass
weighing from one and one-half to
two pounds as soon as possible. Heavy
feeding is necessary and as this pro-
cess does not have to be kept up for
any length of time, the digestive or
gans can be taxed to the limit. At
the beginning of the fourth week, a
mash should be fed once per day and
another mash feed added the fifth
week. When five weeks old, three mo-
dcrate mash feeds should be given
each day, finishing up with a little
grain scattered in the litter to induce
exercise. Best results are obtained by
feeding four or five times a day.
When mash is not used, a mixture Of
whole or cracked drains, largely corn,
&c we'll as green food should be given
The last two weeks, the bulk of the
feed should be mash.
A Different Mash.
The mash that is fed broilers is diff
ferent from that given ordinarily TO
chicks. A mixture of five parts corn
neal, four parts wheat brand and six
parts ground oats without hulls)
should give good results. If oats
without hulls cannot be obtained. sub
