mixed with the grain feed. It is considerably in advance of 
the dry mash system, which has a tendency to cause chronic 
indigestion. Spratt's Poultry Pellets are rich in carbo- 
hydrates, and will be found to be economical and reliable for 
egg production and general utility purposes.

take risks by attempting to rear exclusively on raw foods 
Our food rears from the shell, and at the age of 6 weeks 
the chicks will be heavier and harder than birds fed on dry 
food. Test the statement of feeding a few birds this way 
and comparing the chicks fed on any other

stand the long fast.
