EGG PRODUCTION IN WINTER

poultrymen of the United States De

Good rations. however. cannot be cX-
pected to keep flock laying properly
If health conditions are not what they
should be. Dropping boards and nests
need cleaning aud disinfection occh-

too hard he may cut down on this

forcing too much on the feed may
cause the fowls to be weakened In fer
