Ration Tests

WHAT RATIONS are best suited
to egg production?
Answers to this question are
found in feeding tests carried out
by the University Of Wyoming agri-
cultural experiment station.
In the Alton substation in Lincoln
county, two sets of experiments
were conducted by w. L. Quayle,
former director Of substations, and
R. J. Hyer, Alton substation super
intendent.
A 4-year test with four pens of
Single Comb White Leghorn pullets
confined in Wyoming strawIoft
laying house showed considerable
variation of the pens in their re-
Spouse to different rations and also
in the several years with the same
ration.
La the second test, Single Comb
White Leghorn pullets were COM
pared with New Hampshire pullets
- eAA~A ACoPO@AoC W Two IdIlOnS-
one being II percent protein all
mash ration, the other a IS percent
protein mash plus grain scratch.
In this S-year test, egg production
by New Hampshires was greater
when a II percent aIl-mash ration
was fed, compared with a 25 percent
mash-and-scratch ration. With White
Leghorns the all-mash ration was
only slightly better, based on per-
centage Of egg production.
The trials are reported in Circular
4S, feeding Tests for Egg Produc-
ton" by w. L. Quayle and R. j.
Hyer. available to the public from

Vents Essential

OF course you must be very sure
to have vents in both the east and
west gables of the house or you will
not have the air that filters up
through the straw carried out Of the
house. If not removed after any cold
spell, you will have veritable rain-
storm inside of the house, from frost
melting up in the loft. That's when
the birds develop colds and the egg
production falls off
If you put in a flue vent, be sure
that you have one at least 20 inches
square and that the top Of the flue
extends well above the highest part
of the roof. Also be sure to have the
ventilator throat well insulated so
you will get good updraft.
Sometimes the house is so situated
that you can't seem to get good
up-draft no matter what you do.
Then it sometimes is necessary to
place a fan at the outlet of the ven
tilator so that a good circulation of
air and a dry house can be main
tanned.
The best thing to finish the house
so that it will surely function well
during the winter months is to have
proper 'ebuilt-up" litter And if you
are going to have this you will want
to start that program right now.
am sure that if you do all Of
these things. you will find that you
have warm, dry house and con-
tinuous egg production all winter.
Further, you will find Montana a
good place to raise poultry.

winter. First / suggest that you
patch all cracks on the outer wall
and then cover the inside Of the
outer wall with a tight building
paper. Then stretch another layer of
building paper over the inside Of the
studs.
Seal the Inside
Then seal the house on the inside.
The seal can be made of a cheap
flooring or some very hard compost
ton board which the birds can't
pick If you settle for a pickable in
sulation board, you had better get
some window screen and nail over
the insulation board. Picking not
only wrecks the insulation but is
also pretty hard on hens insides.
This treatment of the walls gives
you a good dead air space. However
you will have an even warmer house
if you fill the space between the in
ner and outer walls with some in
sulation material, such as shavings
or some commercial insulating ma
terial.
Now the front. You say that the
window spaces are covered with
some glass substitute which is pretty
well worn out I'd finish thu job and
replace with window sashes and
glass. The glass is much more per-
manent and usually does not cost
any more in the long run. You will
hear lot about the glass substitutes
admitting ultra violet rays. Sure, the
claim is accurate, but at this latitude
there are practically no ultra violet
rays in the winter sunshine. Besides
regular window glass will admit
more light and that is commodity
which is rather needed in our Mon
tana winters, especially on your side
of the range.
Ventilation
On our western slope where you
are located, our greatest problem. is
ventilation. Al bird can stand q LOT
