H. Gooding, extension poultryman, calling attention to the fact that grain planted now to feed chickens next winter will help to keep this feed cost at a mini mum. . With existing selling prices of eggs and poultry, Mr. Gooding urges economical practices in producing them if a profit is to be made, practices that should involve the least outlay of cash. To guide in planting feed crops for the chickens Mr. Gooding calls attention to the following figures. In or&eir to bring 100 pullets to lay ing age it is necessary to begin with about 300 chicks. From this num ber about 140 cockerels and culled pullets are usually sold or consum ed as broilers, 'fhe two home grown ingredients that will form 80 per cent of the ration require ments are 45 bushels of yellow com and 17 bushels of wheat. This, plus 20 per cent of commercial in gredients, mixed in formulas which may he obtained from county agents, will carry 100 pullets to five months of age. As feed requirements for 100 hens for one year Mr. Gooding lists 100 bushels of yellow com, 25 bush els of wheat, 800 pounds of meat scraps or fish meal. The ingredi ents prepared and mixed in form ulas which can be secured from the extension poultryman or the coun ty agents ^vill fead lOO laying fien? for one year. By estimating the yield of com and wheat per acre which can be expected from his land the farmer can deteimine the number of acres of com and wheat necessary to feed his flock of birds. X J. H.
