HOME PROJECTS 



1. What poultry rations are used on the home farm? Do 

 they supply all the necessary ingredients for meat or egg pro- 

 duction, as the case may be? If not, try to arrange for new 

 and better rations. 



2. By means of accurate records compare the old ration with 

 the new, either for meat or egg production. Also compare cost 

 of each and see which is most efficient. 



3. Disinfect the home poultry house and yards, using plan 

 and mixtures given in this chapter.
