Bray, Ltd., Hatcheries, have released the foF- lowing information: 1. Twice as many eggs were shipped to their hatcheries from flocks fed on Shur-Gain Hatching Feeds than on the next most popular brands. 2. The average hatchabijity of eggs supplied by Bray flocks increased outstandingly. The number of eggs supplied by Shur-Gain feeders rose substantially both in total and percentage of ,all eggs supplied. A FEW IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER: 1. A high increased demand for chicks due to greatly im­ proved poultry prices has made the production of hatch­ ing eggs profitable. , . Success in production of hatching eggs depends upon high production and high hatchability. Shur-Gain gives the highest possible efficiency in hatch­ ing feeds at a low cost that will make good profits. Shur-Gain 35 per cent Hatchmaker Concentrate sells at prices far below any competitive concentrate of- any­ where similar’value. Shur-Gain 18 per cent Hatching Mash made at our own mill reduces cost of feed. Our Hatching Mash is fresh— an extremely important factor. 2. ■ ■ 3. 4. 5. ■ .
