Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 249, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 21 October 1911 — Proper Feeding. [ARTICLE]
Proper Feeding.
Avoid that which contains a large proportion of fat It Is lean meat which gives the best results. It is safe to say that ent bone and meal make a cheaper ration Sian grain because less is required to satisfy the hens, and also because in many places those substances cost less per pound than grain. If the hens have a grass plot they will need but one good meal a day. If they are not now laying the probability is that they are too fat. which happens frequently when grain Is fed to liberally.
