TALKS ON GRAIN
AND CHICKENS
DrydcB Advises to, Feed flniln and
Not Soil. .
(By Prof. Jnmco Dryden.)
The price of poultry and eggs fol
low closoly. tho trond of wheat prices
and of corn prices, tho two staplo
poultry foods in tho United States.
The tendonpy Is for poultry-keopcrs
to curtail the flock of poultry when
prjccB of food are high, and to In
crease the flock when tho prices of
food aro low. When tho grain prices
rise inoro poultry nro nont to mar-
kot, and later on thoro is a scarcity
of both poultry and eggs.
The question for the poultryman
and tho farmer to consider In HIiIb
connection Ja, at what prices of grain
does it pay the farmer to market tho
grain rather than feed It to the poul
try, for the business of tho farmor Is
to' get tho moBt out of tho noil,
whether It be In raw or concentrated
products. It Is a flno point to de
termlnp Just whoro tho profit In feed
ing poultry as well 115 other livestock
disappears ' iA the. upward .tendency
of tho price pf grain; In other words,
at what point Is thoro n parting of
the ways between a profit and a loss.
Tho gonoral .fondoney among farm
era Is to sell tho grain, rather than
feed it, long boforo tho parting of
the ways has boon reached, and It Is
a knowledgo of thin fact that assurou
the skillful and persistant fcodor of
r profit. Tho parting of tho ways
comes vory noon to tho mnjorlty or
feodors. One man may bo. tolling tho
exact truth when ho Hayn that 1q
can make no protlt In feeding 75-cont
wheat, and another may -bo equally
truthful whon ho says ho can make
a profit In feeding $1 wheat. Tho
dlftorouco In tho two men In a dif
ference In uklll In feeding. With
good Btock and good ciwu tho skill
ful feodor will make a profit
In feodlng high priced grain, 'but nc
one can make a profit with poor stock
and poor care at any prlco for grain
The prlco of wheat Is higher now
than It has boon for prohablo 10 or
IS yoArs, and It Is frequently nald
that It la too high to feed to chick
ens, and with that notion, mlstukan
or not, a good many farnor nro
Bonding tholr chickens to markot.
Two or three things should bo con
sidered In this connection. First,
tho prices of poultry and eggs will
rleo If many chickens nro marketed,
and tho farmor who koopo. his chick
ons will tnnke as much profit ns ho
AM when tho prlco of wheal was low
That Is, tho prlco of poultry prod
ucts will ndjunt Itself to tho prices
of grain, Rocond, how much does tl
ronlly cost to food a hon for a year'
Doos any one know?
In oxporlmenta iniulo by tlio wrltor,
covQrlng Bovornl years, In which ov
ory ounce of food was weighed, bIx
pops of Leghorn lions consumod
during tho year (1C4 pounds of wheat,
200 poundB corn, 203 pounds oat,
312 pounds bran and short and 235
pounds skim milk, In addition to
ttomo animal food, Tho cost of tho
total food por fowl for tho yonr vnr
lod In different pons from 01 cents
to 78 conta, and nvorngod 00 cants.
Tho wheat was charged at 1 cont a
pound, corn at 14, onto at a con,
Bkltn milk at one-fifth of a cant and
bran and shorts at threo-fifths of n
cent. Tho animal food cot from fi
to 6 conts per fowl. Tho wheat con
stituted nearly a halt of tho totnl
cost.
Tho hens laid an avorago of 144
eggs por fowl, valued at $1.08 at
local prices for eggs. Tho price:
wero from 10 contB to 25 cents per
dpzon, much lower than tho price?
In Oregon at tho present time. It
wheat had bcon worth ay 90 conti
and had been charged for at that
rato, and bran at 1 cent a pound, the
cost por fowl would have been about
1G cents more, or SO conts instead
of GO cents. But eggs aro also high
er In price than they wore then.
Taking tho monthly egg yield of
tho six pons of IiCghprnB and com
puting tho value of tho eggs laid
ouch month at the average wholesale
price of eggs In Portland during tho
paBt'two years, the result would be
as follews:

In placo ofaogga worth $1.08 par
fowl, If- tholr vnluo bo computed at
prbuunt prlcos In Portland they would
bo worth $2.58 por fowl. In othor
words, on tho basin of present prlcos,
food coating 80 conts when fed to
lions produces eggs worth $2.58. This
Is ti pretty good margin of profit In
fcodlng 90 cont wheat.
It mny ho said that tho avorago
flock of ,honB doos not lay 144 oggs
nor fowl. That Is tnio. It Is also
truo that 144 oggB por fowl 1b not
phenomenal. Tho right kind of hens
properly atUidod should .avorago
150 and well-brad bona considerably
more. Tho avorago form flock will
not avorago 125, probably not 100.
In those oxperlmonts all tho food
oaton was puld for at mnrkot prices
and tho cost nvorngod only GG conts
por hen. Tho cost would hnvo been
only 80 conts If tho wheat had cost
90 cents a bushel. Tho farmor, how
over, who keops 50 or 100 hons enn
do bettor than that, for on tho avor
ago farm that number of hons may
bo kept largoly on tho waito product)
or by-products of tho form. Tho will
(lad tho animal food .In tho fields In
tho BhnpR of bug, grnHB-hoppor, j

bo skim milk of buttor-mllk. Thoro'
need, thoreforo, bo no cont for nhl-
mnl food, resulting In n saying of 8 1
to 10 conta por fowl. Tho clovor or!
grass thoy eat will have llttlo mar-'
kotablo value. Tho dORtmictlon of
grasHhuppers In tho clover and grnln
tho larger broods bring moro than
will, whoro these Insocts aro bnd, off
set a largo part of tho annual cost
of food for tho fowls In bettor crop?
In experiments with lnrgor hroodt
tho cost of feeding was greater. Tho
tost of feeding Plymouth ItockB aver
aged 11.15 por fowl mid of Yynn

nlse here early any morning and

But not so Iho people. Thoy are al

They have descended from tho high,
