(adv’t) your farm you labor you make, speed her new work- , perhaps, be as of reeding Urowing turkeys Turkeys may’be changed from starting mash to growing* mash at 8 to 10 .weeks of age, The change is made says Professor S. J, Slinger of the Poultry Depart- partment at the Ontario Agri­ cultural ..College. Most of the commercial grow­ ing mashes for the confinement rearing of turkeys contain about 20 percent protein. A mash of this .protein content should be fed free-choice a n d no grain Should be given along with it until th© birds are' about'14 to 15 weeks' of ,age however, since the protein requirement is less after this 11 me, it‘ is sound practice to feed a 2iQ' -percent protein growing .mash a good grain mixture, given free-choice. If ’the turkeys are range, it ‘ is .advisable to carry them on a full feed program; that is-, along with both being grown on to have mash before them at all t Lm e s. This is especially , true this ! year when many of the pastures are not too satisfactory. While it is wise to restrict grain for a time if a 2o .pecent protein range growing mash is being used, the^birds s)ioiild be given a t free-choice supply pf grain in addition to mash as soon .as they are eating pasture readily. It is unwise to attempt restricted feeding -of mash unless plenty of good green feed is available and the birds should, in .all cases, be full-fed on botll hiash and grain for a period of six weeks before marketing. In general “confinement” growing mashes are more highly fortified with respect to many of the vitamins and proteins than are “range” .growing mashes. If pasture is poor it is a wise policy . to use a “confinement” growing mash even though the birds are not confined. The proper grains to use -ana how they, should be fed often pose problems to t h e turkey grower, A, good method of feed­ ing grains is to ,provide a sepa­ rate trough for each. This saves the labor of mixing and the birds will vary, their consumption of the different grains depending on individual likes and dislikes. When provided with grains in separate troughs, turkeys will not, eat much barley but relish wheat, oats -and corn, if barley is available at a lower price than the other grains, however, it can be used successfully for growing turkeys. In this case, it is .neces­ sary to anix the barley with the other grains and having done this, the* birds will eat it readily and thrive. ,It is advantageous tq increase the proportion of wheat and corn in the scratch mixture at, the expense of oats and barley, proaches. The former being lower in fiber than lattei* arq somewhat superior for fattening .purposes. Turkeys require insoluble as ’ marketing time ap- i. The former grains the _ _ . grit such as granite or mica, for most efficient utilization of feed. Grit may be given twice a ..week in ■amounts the birds will consume in 1 or 2 hours. Grit should not be left in front of the birds at all times. .Commercial growing mashes vary in their content ,pf calcium. Some -of them are so low in this mineral that the birds require extrg* oyster shell o r limestone during the growing period. Other mashes contain sufficient calcium and much dif­ ficulty could \be encountered by using a calcium supplement along with them. The feed rep­ resentative isin a position to advise concerning t h e necessity or otherwise of giving sup­ plements with a given feed and such advice should be strictly adhered‘to.

Egg laying is general in all areas now with a higher percent being reported in the Leamington area. Growers in the Leamington, Norfolk and Hamilton-Toronto areas are well underway with sprays or dust? According to recent count of Corn Borer infestation in the Brighton Area by ,'Mr. Morley Webster it is advised that treat­ ments of the earliest fields in this area be started as early as possible. In general the amount of egg laying by the moths in relation to the developement of the corn has been lower than would normally be expected, It is hoped that this means a reduction in corn borer this year. Growers of sweet corn are working on the principle of Borer Free Corn for ,1949. 400 lbs. Grain per Hog Hog men from coast to coast are boosting hbg‘ profits the SHUR-GAIN way.
