Philips Formerly professor in charge Poul- try Husbandry Purdue University. Water is the cheapest feed that can be offered to poultry. Water is a feed and should be so considered by poul- trymen because it is needed for body maintenance and egg production. Both the hen’s body and the whole egg contain about sixty-five per cent of water, and this percentage does not vary, With this fact in mind it can easily be seen that a shortage of water supply to a laying flock must naturally reflect itself in a lessening of egg pro- duction and possibly the egg size, It takes a lot of water to satisfy the needs of poultry. One laying pullet will consume about one-third of a pint lor one-third of a pound of water per day. This means that at least four one hundred birds each day or six tons in one year. Giving consideration to exaporation and waste it will be wise to provide water capacity for at least five gallons for each one hundred laying birds. Water consumption should be en- couraged and the flock management So planned that it will be ‘clean palatable, and always easily available. to do. Electric heaters are practical ence Elston, Mrs. Paul Johnson, Mrs. H. A. Randall. Mrs. A. R. Holcomb has returned home after spending a few days with Mr. and Mrs. Howard Jones at Ply- mouth. # gallons of water will be consumed by | In cold weather this may be difficult | and the cost will be reflected in egg | Classified Ads Pay production. If artificial heat is not available, water = with the chill re- moved should be put into the laying pens as often as it shows a tendency to freeze, Hens will not consume ice and they do not like cold water in the winter time. ~N Selling water in an egg shell is a profitable proposition’ and the. poul- try keeper should not allow anything in his management program to prevent his seeing that the laying birds drink all the water they desire.
