BALANCED HEN RATION
Egg-Layer Comes in for Share in
Scientific Feeding.
Ohio Experiment Station Secures
Abundant Supply by Giving Mix
lure Of Corn, Wheat and Mash
in Hoppers.

Feeders Of horses, cattle, sheep and
hogs have claimed for years that these
animals must be fed a balanced ra-
tion." Special attention has been
given to balanced ratiOns for dairy
cows. BY this is meant that one food
constituent should not be fed in ex-
cess, while another is lacking for the
upkeep of the animals body. The
protein must be in a certain proper
ton to the sugars, starches and fat in
the food. Now the hen comes in for
her share in this scientific feeding.
Ten times as many eggs were pro-
duced by hens fed a well-balanced ra-
ton as by those given only corn,
wheat and oats in an experiment con
Quoted by the Ohio experiment sta
ton. The balanced ration consisted
of three parts by weight of corn and
the litter, and a mash mixture of two
parts meat scrap added to two parts
ground corn and one part bran fed in
.self-feeding hoppers.
The 81 Barred Plymouth Rock pull
lets in each lot received the same
house space and treatment except for
the difference in feed. The test pc
riod lasted for 140 days.
The hens given the balanced ration
ate more feed, which cost about so
per cent more than the ration of corn,
wheat and oats. However, they gained
more in weight and produced ten times
as many eggs, making a net profit,
while the other lot was kept at a
loss.
