Kerr Chick Book 
Kerr’s Guaranteed Lively 
Chicks are bred from parent 
birds carefully selected by 
expert poultrymen. Our 
flocks are under a rigid 
system of mating, feeding, 
housing and culling. 
They pay. Chicks of such 
breeding would cost you twice 
as much if it were not for our 
great facilities for hatching 
economically. And they 
would be worth it. Lively 
Chicks are born producers, 
bred from pedigreed stock. 
Kerr’s Chick Book ior 1924 tells 
how Lively Chicks are bred 
from America’s finest poultry; 
how the breeding farm raises 
superb cockerels to head our 
laying flocks; the records 
made by Kerr entries in lead¬ 
ing competitions. It is inter¬ 
esting from cover to cover.

Laying Mash 
I have the following grain which I 
wish to grind for laying mash for my 
poultry (Wyandottes) : Corn, oats, 
wheat, barley and buckwheat. What pro¬ 
portion of each should I use, or, if this 
would not be a proper mixture, will you 
give me the formula of a good one? How 
much meat scrap should be added to the 
above formula? E. H. 
Geneva, N. Y. 
Where skim-milk, or other animal food, 
is not fed. meat scrap should make up 
from one-sixth to one-fifth part of the 
laying mash, by weight. Corn, oats, 
wheat and barley contain all the needed 
food ingredients to be obtained from 
grain, and are about alike in value, 
though corn is probably a little superior 
to any other single grain. It is usually 
more economical to exchange whole wheat 
for a greater amount of bran and mid¬ 
dlings to be used in tlie mash, since the 
flour in the wheat is of more value for 
human than for poultry food. If I could 
make a good exchange, I should make up 
my inash of equal parts of ground corn, 
ground oats, wheat bran, middlings, and 
beef scrap, or should add another part of 
ground barley. The corn, wheat, barley 
and buckwheat may be used whole as 
scratch grain. Oats may be added to this 
if they will be eaten without waste 
Buckwheat is not quite equal to the other 
grains as poultry food, being higher in 
fiber than the others, except oats, and 
lower in protein. It is a good Winter 
food, however, and is usually readily 
eaten whole. m. b. i>.
