A REVOLUTION IN EGG PRODUCTION

An over fat hen will be far more likely to lay than an 

 under fed hen. With the lighter breeds, Leghorns for in- 

 stance, if the birds are fed regularly, without spasmodic 

 periods of scarcity, there is little or no danger of over feeding 



on a good balanced ration. 



We have kept Leghorns in flocks for five years, which 

 never knew a time when there was not feed and water avail- 

 able, at any hour or minute of their business day, if they 

 wanted it — and they laid some, and are still at it. For quan- 

 tity of feed, "Ask the birds, their judgment is good."
