Birds younger than six
■weeks require between 20 and
22 per cent protein for most rap
id growth and development.
But after six or eight weeks,
gains are equally rapid on the
lower-protein ration, -
On the other hand, broilers,
placed on a 16 per cent protein
cation at six or eight weeks fail
to gain as well as those on a
ration containing 19 per cent
protein. This means that 16.
per emit is an adequate protein
level in the 6-to-10 week growth
period.
The protein level- in broiler
ration* can be reduced, says the
county agent, by feeding grains,

by feeding low-protein finishing
pellets, or by using a lower pro
tein alUnash system. Of these
methods, the use of a lower pro
tein all-mash system Is the eas
iest and the most foolproof.
The extra work Involved in
feeding pellets or grain and the
chance of reducing protein too
much may offset the savings
to be realized through the use
of a lower protein ration.

Honey on the table—One farm
of every ten In North Carolina
keeps some bees which means
a plentiful supply for North
Carolina families. Honey is a
good, healthy food and can be
used in many ways, too. Are
you making full use of the hon
ey available in your commun
ity?
Use it as a spread on pan
cakes, -waffles or hot biscuits
—either plain or creamed with
butter. Try it as alnveetner in
beverages, on fruits or cereals.
Bland It with peanut butter;
chopped nuts or dried fruits as
a sandwich, filling. Honey may
be used in place of sugar when
preparing .candled vegetables,
cinnamon toast, baked ham,
baked apples, custards, pud
dings and pies. Cakes, pud
dings, cookies and candles stay
moist longer if made with
honey. Try these honey rec
ipes .recommended by Virginia
