BRIGGS' SYSTEM OF 



Your last trip at ni^ht, you feed each flock two or 

 three quarts of cracked corn, gather your eggs and 

 shut the windows. The slide which lets your hens 

 out is never closed. 



This feed is for flocks of sixty layers and this 

 system will pay a good profit with but little labor, as 

 }'ou can easily see. 



You will not get an abundance of eggs during 

 the winter under this system. 



You should keep the end of your house where 

 your nests, hoppers, etc., are, well bedded during the 

 winter, and throw your grain in it so as to give them 

 all the exercise possible.
