Feeding The Layers
Since there are high and low pro-
ducers in all breeds and varieties, all
pullets showing general indications OF
unthriftiness and slow Development
should be cuIled from the flock and
disposed Of. Only thrifty, weII-grown
pullets should be kept as layers, and
these should have a good supply of
surplus flesh before being placed in
the laying house on laying rations-
Good conditions Of flesh may be OBJ
tanned by feeding a liberal allowance
Of corn and wheat for a few weeks,
previous to housing the puIlets Con-
tinued heavy consumption Of mash
which is high in protein may stimu-
late production before the bodies of
the pullets are well heshed.
The following ration was used in
the egg laying contest conducted by
the University Of Maryland Expert
ment Station during the first three
years. That the ration should be re-
%arded as suitable for Maryland con-
ditions is evidenced by the fact that
production records for the respective
years showed an average per hen Of
1858, 1864 and 1913 eggs.
Dry Mash
Wheat bran, 100 lbs; wheat flour
middlings, 100 lbs; finely ground No,
2 oats, 100 lbs; freshly ground No.
yellow corn, 100 lbs. meat and bone
meal (50-55 percent protein) 100 lbs
salt (free from lumps) 21s lbs.
Grain
Whole yellow corn and wheat, equal
parts by weight.
Greens
Fresh greens, such as lawn clip
pings, young clover or alfalfa, garden
waste, cabbage, chick weed and the
like, when available, fed twice daily.
When fresh greens were not avail
able small daily feeding Of clover
or alfalfa hay, of good quality, was
supplied.
Oyster shell, limestone grit and
graduated bone in separate hoppers
were kept before the birds at all
