I. Graham, 0. A. College, Guelph. Laying hens require plenty of green feed. Cabbage is one of the best green feeds. Roots are very good, but clover leaves should be within reach as well as the roots. Sprouted oats are used to a tinge extent on poultry farms. When the birds get accustomed to a green and succulent food it is generally wise to give them all they will eat. A pen of titteen pullets will eat a lair-sized head of cabbage almost every day or one hundred hens will eat a peek of sprouted oats day after day. The mash feed is the one where the animal meals are generally given. The amounts vary from ten '0 twen- ty per cent. of the mixture. The ani- mal meals used are commonly high grade tonnage and beef scrap. Whore one has plenty of skint milk or buttermilk the other animal feeds are unnecessary. Some use green cut bone; cooked refuse meat, such as livers. lights, beef heads, etc. A very good mash can be made of one part each try measure of shorts, barley weal. and ground oatst Corn meal could be used in the place ot the barley or with it. " one is short of green feed or roots, " would be well to add one part of bran. Per- haps the slinplest mash to feed from an open hopper is rolled or crushed oats. We have used this. when the birds had milk to drink. tor a num- ber of years with excellent results. - Abortion Should Not Be Neglected. At present for I mash feed we are using the standard hog feed. if the ground grains are to be fed moist or mixed with cooked house- hold refuse then the mixture should be one that will mix to a crummy state. but it fed dry in an open hop- per the above is not so important. Scratch feeds are generally led night and morning and are scattered in straw in order to lnduce the blrdl to scratch or take exercise. A mix- ture of two or more kinds of gain I usually glvos better reaultl than one single grain, largely because indi- vidual hirds' appetites vary from any to day. A good mixture tor the win- ter months might contain on much u Mty per cent. good corn, either whole or cracked; if corn could not he had and the birds were teena- tomed to eating buckwheat, the buckwheat would answer nearly " well. or one could use taentr-tive per cent. buckwheat and twenty-live per cent. corn. To the corn or buckwheat could be added twenty-ave per cent. of barley, ten per cent. of wheat screenings, and titteen per cent. of good oats. " one was obliged to do so, almost any ot the grains could be ted alone with the exception of oats. There is too much hull or husk on oats to use entirely as a single feed. . Poultry feeds are divided into two classes: one. whole or cracked grams, commonly called scratch feet, and the other, ground gnlns. commonly called mush. fContnginus Abortion Mote.
