POULTRY PROFIT is FEEDING
Mash Of Bran, MIddIings. Meat Scrap
and cornmeal Is Best, Experts
Have Proven.

Trcpared by the United States Department
OF AsricultuFc-)
valuable results of interest To poul-
trymcn have been obtained by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture In the experimental tests mt the
government poultry farm. Beltsville,
Md, where different ra'Ions have been
fed to various groups Of laying hens
for II period of eight Years. Al this
time. more than 900 hens and pullets
are used in feeding trials of this kind.
The pens range In size from 10 to
80 hens. all the fowls being irnpncsIed
during the period under test. During
ihe last three years, the mash which
has given the most uniform and best
production has consisted of II mixture
of 4 per cent bran. 4 per cent mid
Ilings, 20 per cent meat scrap. and GO
per cent cornmcal. This mash was
the result Of experiments where me
hens were allowed TO select their own
mash ingredients. When given free
choice of these various ingredients the
fowls consumed the various insredi'
ents In the above proportions. Sew
eral pens, both OF I.cgh0rnS and Rhode
Island Reds, Of 30 hens carh have nv
ernged from 1iO to 15l eggs apiece
where this mash has been fed. Tie
feeding mixture seems to he especial
ly adapted for Ecghorns. although II
has also given good results with the
Reds. The WSundoiles and Plymouth
Rocks are inclined 10 accumulate too
much fat when fed this mash, and one
somewhat lower in meat scrap content
gives better results when fed to thes,
two breeds.

scrap by 3 per cent and the cornmcal

advantage. The evidences are that
ground oats added to the ration pro-
duccs no beneficial results. 1t pays
to vary the proportion of grains In
the scratch mixture, from an cc0non-
zeal standpoint, according TO the mar
ket price of these farm crops. AT
present, scratch mixture of three
parts cracked corn. two parts oats. and
one part wheat, by weight, is used
with this mash.
In previous years fish meal has not
proved II more profitable and practi-
cal source of protein in the mash than
meat scrap. but during the present
year the production has been very
good where the fish refuse has been
used. and ms the price Of this matcri-
al has decreased. larger net incomes
result from its use. Sixty per cent
protein fish scrap now can he obtained

scrap. Innumer;blc varieties of fish
scrap have been fed and no harmful
effects have resulted from feedin.

mash have not resulted In MS high
production with pullets as where 20
or - per cent Of meat scrap was used,
but with yearling hens the 16 per

BILE to decrease the amount of meat
