Poultry feeds and feeding / by George Robertson. : A12-2/1-1925E-PDF

"It has been the endeavour to make the subject of feeds and feeding as simple as possible. While it has seemed advisable to try to familiarize the uninformed reader with the more common scientific terms, this has been done only to such an extent as will permit the reader to study and mix feeds intelligently. Wherever terms that might be unusual to ordinary poultry keepers are used, care has been taken to explain them as simply as possible, so that any person reading the bulletin through should have no trouble in following it. While sample rations are given for each kind of stock, it must not be supposed that these are given as the only rations or even as the best- rations.They are simply indications of about what the various rations might consist. The make-up of a ration shouid depend altogether on what feeds are available, always bearing in mind the various requirements"--p. 3.
