Successful" Grain Sprouter 



The feeding of sprouted oats is highly endorsed by the poultry experts of the agricultural experi- 

 ment stations, because grain fed in a sprouted condition is easily digested, goes three times as far, 

 and is therefore much cheaper and better than when fed in a dry condition. 



You can make your hens lay 40 to 50 per cent more eggs. You can reduce the cost of feeding 

 25 to 30 per cent by giving them SPROUTED OATS easily and quickly produced in the

 Costs but one-half cent per day for kerosene. 



This succulent, nutritious, green feed will turn your hens from idle feed consumers into indus-

Oakes Lamp-Heated 

 Sectional Sprouter 



This Sprouter is made of No. 26 

 galvanized steel and is absolutely 

 rat- and mouse-proof. The walls 

 are lined with rubberoid roofing, 

 causing the heat to be retained in 

 the Sprouter. The grain trays are 

 18 inches square and perforated on 

 bottom. This enables the moisture 

 to pass through the grain easily, 

 and gives a free passage of air to 

 keep grain from moulding. Top is 

 also perforated, allowing the air 

 difficulty. 



The top is removable, enabling the grain to be moistened 

 easily. The doors are provided with glass, which allows plenty of 

 light, to stimulate the growth of the grain. 



The Sprouter is equipped with an Oakes O. K. Lamp, and it 

 requires only a very small flame to heat it. The base of the 

 Sprouter contains two grain-trays and a moisture-pan and each 

 of the sections contains two grain-trays. 



Capacity of the Base: bushel (30 hens). 



Capacity of Sections: bushel (30 hens).
