City consumers are still payinK & cent? or more for every egg they eat. With grain as low as it is and rks m hlh as they are, careful feeding of laying hens should be nrofttable. The State College of Agriculture recommends the follow ing ration for layers: 1 part finely ground cornmcal, 1 part wheat bran, 1: part wheat shortB, 1 part finely ground oats, 1 part meat scrap or high grade tankage. Measurement should be made by weight. In acldt- i'pn to this dry-mash feed,' scratch eed made up of whole or cracked grains should be fed in a deep litter 3f-straw, especially when the hens do Mot get out for exercise. The fol lowing scratch feed gives good satin faction: 2 parts cracked corn. 1 part wheat, 1 part oats, 1 part bnr- rejr, all by weight. About eight or nine quarts of this mixture will be trough for 100 hens for one day. Ike heaviest feeding should be given nt'night so the birds will havo a full c(p of feed at the time they go to ro6st, ' ' '' ' '.
