the palatability of a ration, and 1t
gives the fowls little chance to Sc
lect what agrees with them best.
Fowls forced to eat certain food day
after day get tired of it after a time,
refuse to eat quite as much, digest
less, and hence do not do as well.
Cooking some feeds decreases the
digestibility of the protein constitu-
ents. AS practice it is not advisable
to cook food for poultry; it does not
pay for the extra labor. The only ex-
ceptions would be one or two vege-
tables which have their feeding value
increased b. cooking. like turnips and
potatoes.
1t is not advisable to feed an entire
ration. Of either whole or ground
grains. 1t requires more energy to d.
gest whole grains than 1t does ground
grains and fowls cannot digest as
much whole grain in a day as they
can ground grain. The more they
can digest the faster the growth and
the better the egg production.
A properly balanced ration must
contain both whole, cracked and
ground grains. Either fed alone never
produce the best results. 1t Is not
advisable to feed entirely on ground
grains because the crop and gizzard
are there for several purposes. One
OF them is to grind up the whole
grains into smaller particles.

(By F. w. KAZMEIER, Texas Agricul-
tural College.)
In preparing a balanced ration. the
palatability Of the various ingredi-
ents should be considered. In addition
to the various constituents which
foods carry, they possess a certain
medical quality, either liked or
disliked by the fowls, and either bene-
fetal or harmful to their well-being.
Corn possesses a sweet flavor liked
by all fowls, yet should be fed in q
limited amount to laying and grow
ing stock because it is too fattening.
The palatability of ration should be
considered, because If the individual
does not like the ration it does not d.
gest to its best ability. Appetite plays
an important part in the feeding of
animals as well as fowls.
That which fowls like best they gen.
orally digest best. In feeding fowls
give them their choice as much as
possible. An animals power of Sc
lecting food is greater than is gen.
orally expected and should be taken
into consideration. Yet this power
OF selection is sometimes so much in.
fuenced by the flavor of a certain
grain as to induce them to eat more
than is good for them. This, too,
should be taken into consideration.
1t is advised to feed a variety Of
foods for two reasons. 1t increases
