Intelligent Attention Necessary for Poultry
Authorities say the average hen eats about 70 pounds of feed yearly. A flock of 100 hens would consume 7,000 pounds, about 125 bushels corn or 116 bushels wheat or 219 bushels oats. Variety in feed, minerals, water, and home-made mixes are discussed, with plans to plant sunflowers and other crops. A Poultry Association meeting is urged next Saturday at 2:30, led by H. G. Wiley, County Agent. Also noted are results on cotton plant spacing.
