available to furnish full feeds both at
noon and at night, another feed of the
grain mixture should be given at the
night feed and should consist Of as
much aS the hens will eat I'D clean
A good grain mixture for this purnose
is composed Of equal parts by weight
of wheat. cracked corn, and oats. An
other suitable grain mixture is COM
posed of two parts by weight of crack
ed corn and one part oats.
In addition TO the grain and the ia
BILE scraps il is well to feed a drv
mash. This dry mash is composed of
various ground grains and is placed in
a mash hopper ar box from which The
hens can help themselves. The adj
vantage of feeding such a mash is
that the hens always have access IN
