Leghon Hens Produce Eggs at Less
Cost


Leghorns produce eggs cheaper
than hens of the general purpose
breeds-Plymouth Rocks, Wyandot-
tes, Rhode Island Reds and Orping-
tons. This fact, which confirms the
belief and experience Of commercial
poultry farmers, was one of the re-
suits obtained in a rather extensive
feeding test recently reported by
poultrymen of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. Because
they lay as many or more eggs, eat
only 55 pounds of feed per head as
compared with 70 to S5 pounds eaten
by the general purpose breeds, and
because their egg yield very mater
tally exceeds that of general purpose
breeds during their second and third
laying years, Leghorns, the special
lists say, undoubtedly are more prof
table to keep for the production OF
eggs only.
In this test the feed cost OF q
dozen oggs for one of the Leghorn
pens was 7.34 cents In 1918 while
the average cost of all the pens Of
the general purpose breeds was 1915
cents. In 1914 the feed cost Of a
