Pasture Produces Healthier Pullets, Poultryman Says Provision of clean, tender, eirepn range has resulted in healthier, higher-producing pul lets reauiring less feed, savs J. H.

Ohio tests show a five per cent higher eeg production and 44 week laying-house mortality re duction from 21.5 to 11.3 Der cent when range-reared pullets were compared to those raised in confinement. Controlling: and balancing the amount of mash and grains fed to erowine pulfets has recently replaced the older systems of self-feeding pullets while on ranee, the poultryman savs. This controlled feeding not onlv re duces feed costs, but tends to alk)w the pullets to range well and consume . a maximum amount of green feed.
