Poor-laying Hens 
I have 40 R. I. Red pullets, hatched 
April 1st last, that started to lay Septem- 
bci 1st with about oue egg every other 
day through that mouth, and ifcvelsed 
only to about an average of six or seven 
eggs a day now. Just now, since lavinsr 
have been feeding a laying mash, fed 
3 st £ PI ] , ; n - h oaly to be eaten quickly! 
and then .3% quarts of cracked corn at 
night, h or awhile I fed mixed feed, but

the time and oyster shells. n r

i® impossible to say why two flocks 
that aie very much alike and are given 
the same care vary so much in egg pro¬ 
duction. there are doubtless excellent 
reasons which we sometimes express bv 
7 n l S :,s “heredity,” ••trans¬ 
mitted ability.” etc., without knowing ex- 
actly \yhat it is that is inherited and 
transmitted. As the composition of the 
proprietary feeds that you mention is 
known only to the manufacturers, I can- 
not say as to whether they are suited to 
the needs of the fowls or not. I much 
prefer to.mix the standard foods of known 
composition according to good formulas, 
f 1 “ o r e is then no question as to whether 
tood ot the right kind is being supplied.
