HINTS FOR
POULTRY GROWERS

The poultry grower who has not yet
adopted sprouted oats as part OF the
hens bill of fare, especially during
the winter months, is not only deprlv-
ing his hens of feed that would be rel
ished and which is most valuable in
feeding for egg production, but is also
overlooking one of his best OppOrtu-
mites to save on the cost of feeding.
Town folks who keep only small tiocks
have been quicker to realize the advan-
tages of feeding sprouted oats than
have farmers, yet the latter are the
ones who should be first to understand
the food value and the results that
might reasonably be expected from
sprOuted oats, because the oats sprout-
er is to the poultryman what the silo
is to the dairyman.
A few poultry growers operate their
oats sprOuters the year round, they
having found Sprouted oats to be an
excellent feed for both laying hens
and growing stock. This can be done
very profitably when the chickens do
not have free range, but is not neces-
sary with the farm flock during that
part of the year when there is plenty
of natural green feed. The real advan-
tage in feeding sprouted oats is that
it provides succulent green feed when
none other is available. In the sprout-
ed form, none of the grain is lost or
wasted. The hens eat all the tender
green sprouts, roots and soft bulls.
