Owners of back-yard flocks, and sometimes farmers, depend to a con- siderable extent upon table scraps as feed for the hens. Feed of this sort varies a good deal In composition with different families and also with the seagon, but in winter It is usually free from large quantities of coarse green stuff and contains a great deal of falr- Iy concentrated feed. The United States Department of Agriculture has designed a ration spe- cially to be fed to flocks that recelve all of the table scraps. The mash of this ration Is made up of three pounds corn meal, one pound bran, one pound middlings, one-half pound meat scrap. The scratch feed contains two pounds cracked corn, one pound wheat and one pound oats, If scraps are not available, feed five pounds of cooked vegetables dally to 830 hens. Two per cent of bone meal may be added to the mash without changing any of the other constituents. Five per cent of bone meal may be added If the content of meat scrap Is reduced slightly, , OL of | fact that about 50 the si: the county i mainder About 20 ied are for the {a large num the only cent herds The scrubs 1st- per the dairy purel either es used io are are or per cent COWS purebreds part her of |} #¢ animals are most through Average dalryviian purebreds as fast as incial tions will In immediately permit wrest or E studying the census [it the is noticed inom rosper the purebreds | ous sections « County and grades confined the { largest number of 1.228 of county. valle LL entirely to the { since town of and COWS Newark | country for the m prosperous farmir of 68 purebred bind COWS 1.60638 10 per cent.
