Science Gives Lay and Live Help to Hens
Poultry raisers face a deeper problem than getting eggs from hens. A Wooster Ohio bulletin from 1934 shows rising pullet mortality: 18.2 percent in 1921–1924, 38.4 percent in 1925–1928, and 55.5 percent in 1929–1932. The survey suggests this trend mirrors national conditions.
