Feed them Purina Lay* Chow. It costs no more to feed a good w’ell balanced ration that will produce steady, high produc­ tion over a long period of time because on an inferior ration the pullets or hens eat more and produce less. Naturally a ration iiiade up of carefully selected in­ gredients cannot be prepared for the same price as the inferior ration. Yet, measured in feed cost per dozen eggs, it is much cheaper. And don’t forget io feed the CHECKERS or lots of the mash in the hoppers to get those extra eggs.
