FEED POULTRY FOR PROFIT

Does your poultry flock return a
good profit over the cost of feed dur
ing the year? 1t has been found that
when laying hens are fed all the
grain they will consume Leghorns
and similar breeds eat from 70 to
80 pounds of grain a year. Breeds
like the Plymouth Rock, Rhode Is
land Reds, and Wyandotte eat from
80 to 95 pounds. All breeds eat from
2 to pounds of oyster shells and
about pound of grit year.
The average farm hen lays less
than 60 eggs year, principally from
March to June, the season of lowest
prices. Yearly profits in eggs de-
pend largely on production in fall
and winter, according to the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Rations for laying stock should in
clude scratch grains, mashes, meat
feed, green feed, mineral feed, grit,
and drink. The scratch ration should
be scattered through the litter in the
poultry house so that the hens will
get plenty of exercise.
