ciples are applicable everywhere and under all conditions, whereas, an 

 individual ration proves of different value under various conditions. If 

 taught "the principles" a student can interpret the results in a tangible 

 way and more easily solve his own problem, whereas, one will often err and 

 work in the dark when trouble arrives, if one has learned individual rations 

 and methods, instead of principles. 



I do not wish to imply by these remarks that I would in any way lessen 

 the value now placed upon the study of balancing rations in relation to the 

 needs of the fowl, but that I would increase the attention given to the 

 "method of feeding."
