Legume Hay Helps Solve
the Green Feed Problem

Legume hay helps solve the winter
green feed problem for the chickens.
Experiments in Ohio. Kansas, Texas.
and California seem TO indicate dens
nitely that where no. other source Of
green feed is available the addition OF
q legume hay will increase the num-
Der of eggs produced and their
hatchabllIty. II will also reduce the
mortality from nntritional troubles.
points out @. 8 ylckers, extension
specialist 10 poultry at the Ohio State
university.
Save the hay with the most leaves
and the greenest color FOR the chickens.
An easy way to feed chickens hay Is
to provide rack along the wall and
keep hay before them all the time. A
trough along the bottom OF tina rack
will catch all the leaves that would
otherwise be wasted. These can be
fed from the mash hopper.
Alfalfa meal may be used II good
hay cannot be bought az reasonable
prices. The meal should be used In
the mash. About 10 per cent alfalfa
meal will substitute for a like amount
OF bran A combination Of mangel
beets and legume hay makes q good
winter combination to use instead Of
sprouted oats. II may be that hay
is about to take the place Of our old
reliable. but troublesome, sprouted
oats as winter green feed.
