"Hens Must Be Well Fed

Many ..people ask how tofeed -chickens
through the molt. They seem ti>
^teel tliat the system of feeding (taring
tills normal. resting period should tie
"different than their feeding system
during the other periods of the year.
' The yearly molt is a -vety natural
part of a hen's" life. This Is fhe'tttne
of the year when the h4n ceases pro
duptlon In order to replenish her wardrobe
and to store up renewed. energy
and strength for.her next .year uf'.laying.
Daring , this time she Is .manufacturing
a supply of feathers tnsfhdd
"of eggs. Feathers and egr? are made
op of somewhat- the spine material.
The system of feeding then should not
be different .from one used for egg production:
Milk should continue to be
red along with the mash, and oyster
shell and grain should continue to be
fod In erder that the hen may store
up surplus fat so that- she can have
fat to draw upon for the uext year's
production.
Cutting down In the feed will cause
production to drop off. Any condition
"which stops egg production wtll cause
birds to" toolt at this lime of- year.
However, the causing of tlie carfy

molt. ' On the contrary, those that

short-time moltera- IT^Is therefore
most profitable Jo continue- JO feed for
