made in one evening by a fourteen- 
| ; year-old boy with no tools but saw 
| | and hammer. The total cost, including 
jH|| j stove for heating., was $ 2 . 49 . Thousands 
l| of these sprouters have been made at 
V, home by poultry keepers and hundreds 
1 1 1 of letters in my files test ify t hat it is the 
I.-'' ( cheapest to make, the easiest to operate, 
4 and the handiest and best, sprouter ever 
,' II built. 
To make hens lay abundantly in winter 
you must feed growing green food that 
is rich in vitamines. Sprouted oats fur¬ 
nish the best of such food at lowest cost. 
Make Layers Out of Loafers 
The Putnam IIomc-Made Oat Sprouter will supply better and sweeter sprouted 
ouls with less fuss and dirt and work than any other sprouter made. I will

NOT HOW CHEAP 
BUT IIOW GOOD 
Wheat in Laying Ration 
Will you give me information as to 
mixing a ration for laying pullets where¬ 
by I can use ground wheat instead of 
middlings? The ration will be made of 
bran, ground oats, cornnuml, gluten feed, 
beef scrap and ground wheat. I want to 
know how much wheat to use to 100 11,a. 
bran, 100 lbs. conimeal. 100 Mis. ground 
oats. 100 lbs. gluten feed, 100 lbs. beef 
scrap. w. d. s. 
Delaware. 
Since wheat is so readily oaten whole 
and ctln be ground by the fowl. I can see 
no object lu having it ground by ma¬ 
chinery nt additional expense. If you 
wish to use it in the mash, however, it 
might replace an equal amount of wheat 
middlings. This would reduce the pro¬ 
tein content of the mash very slightly, 
there being about 5 per cent difference 
in protein content between standard mid¬ 
dlings and whole wheat, hut not suffi¬ 
ciently to make any material difference in 
its food value. I think that I should pre¬ 
fer to feed the wheat whole, as scratch 
grain, and add another 100 lbs. of wheat 
bran to your proposed dry tnasli; that is, 
if some of the whole wheat could not he 
advantageously exchanged for wheat mid¬ 
dlings. M. B. D.
