olttaiiicd la.st year. In iLe majority of the experiments the 

 fowls receiving the moist mash have produced a greater num- 

 ber of eggs. The moist-mash feed has seemed to be superior to 

 the dry feed in four out of the six experiments, and the num- 

 ber of eggs in most of these experiments has been materially 

 greater than the number produced under the dry system of feed- 

 ing. In the two experiments in which the dry system gave the 

 greater number of eggs, the diiferences were relatively small. 

 Averaging the six experiments, the results are as follows : — 



Number of Eggs daily per 100 Hens. 

 !Moist mash, ......... 36.3 



Dry feeds, 34.5
