FEEDS FOR BACKYARD FLOCK
Dry Mash Is Recommended In Addi.
ton to Assortment Of Grains
and Table Scraps.

In addition to the grain and the
table scraps given a backyard flock
1t Is well to feed n dry mash. This
dry mash is composed of various
ground grains and is placed In mash
hopper or box from which the hens can
help themselves. The advantage Of
feeding such II mash Is that the hens
always have access to feed, and this
tends to make up for any faulty, in
experienced, or insufficient feeding.
The hens do not like the dry mash
so well that they IRE likely to over
eat, but 1t will supply Il source Of
feed In case they are not getting
enough grain feed. The dry mash NJ.
so provides suitable medium for
feeding beef scrap, a certain amount
Of which may or may not be necessary,
depending upon the amount of meat
scraps available In the table waste.
If the hens show n tendency to become
overfat 1t may be desirable to close
the mash hopper during part of the
day and allow them access to it only
during certain period, preferably the
afternoon.
good dry mash, recommended by
poultry specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
composed of equal parts by weight of
corn meal, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings, and beef scrap. Another mash
Is composed of three parts by weight
of corn meal and one part beef scrap
Still a third NASH which has given
excellent results, is composed Of one
pound of wheat bran, one pound of
wheat middlings, 60 pounds of beef
scrap, and 1863 pounds of corn meal.
The beef scrap used in the dry mash
Is usually the most expensive in
gredient but 1t Is an essential part of
the mash and very efficient for egg
production. 1t should not be elimi-
mated or reduced unless the quantity
of meat in the table scraps is CON
siderable or unless some other prod
uct can be substituted for it. Fish
scrap, when available, may replace the
beef scrap, or cottonseed meal can be
used to replace one-half the beef scrap
in the mash. No attempt should be
made to replace more than half the
beef scrap with cottonseed meal, as

The fowls should be completely sub,
merged and the feathers rulllcd 50 all
parts of the body will be reached by
the liquid. Care should be taken to
keep the dip stirred during treatment
so as to keep the sulphur in suspen-
sion. In case flock has lice as well
as the dcpluming mite, three-fourths
ounce or one heaping tablespoonful of
sodium fluorid should be added to
each gallon of water in the foregoing
mixture.

the results in egg production and in
the, quality of the eggs will be unsat-
isfactory.
Green-cut bone can often be pur-
chased from the butcher. This mate
rial when procured fresh makes an ex-
cellent substitute for beef scrap. It
should be purchased in small guam
titles, as 1t cannot be kept fresh for
any length of time and when spoiled
may cause severe bowel trouble. II is
best fed in a trough not oftener than
every other day. allowing about one
half ounce per bird. Should severe
or continued looseness of the bowels
follow the feeding Of green-cut bone
1t should be discontinued OF the guam
tity reduced.
