WATER IS A FACTOR
IN E6C PRODUCTION
A number of pens which had
been furnished water at all times
were given water only once each
day, all they would drink, then
the water removed. The results
were that the egg yield was re
duced 50 per cent. fhi9 reduc
tion was the same in the differ
ent varieties,
A pen of sixty White Leg
horns, composed of old and
young, consumed 11-2 gallons of
water daily during the warm
weather. This would indicate
that the average farm flock of
100 to 120 birds should be fur
nished at least 5 gallons of water
per day. Laying hens frequent
ly consume 8 ounces of water
daily. This means 1 galion to 16
hens daily.
From the hen’s viewpoint,
water is worth just as much as
feed, for she cant make an egg.
with either one alone. There
fore, the man who furnishes
high priced but neglects the
water supply, is making a great
mistake and will havi to content
with an limited egg yield.
At present prices and weather
conditions, hens consume about
6 gallons of water to each $1
worth of feed. Therefore, if
the feed is worth $1 to the hen
the water is also worth $1.
The value of water to the hen
is shown by the many uses to
which it is placed.
First, water is used to soften
the food ready for digestion.
Second, water in the form
of blood acts as a common carrier
and carries the nourishing parts
ot the food from the digestive
I organs to tissues where needed
and carries worn-out or exhaust
ed to the different organs to
be eliminated from the body.
Third, water is important as
a factor in egg production, as it
enters into the composition of
the egg as well as the hen’s
body, the egg being about 75 per
cent water.
Fourth, water is important in
equalizing the temperature of
the hen’s body, which is done in
two ways. First, cold water
lowers the body temperature,
while warm water holds the
temperature high. For this rea
son we give hens cold water in
summer and warm water in the
winter. The second method of
cooling is by exaporation, which
is a cooling process. The temper
ature of the human system is re
duced by the evaporation of
sweat from the surface of the
body, but with the towl the
evaporation takes place princip
al! through the breathing organs
which accounts for the hen hold
ing her mouth open and breath
ing rapidly on a hot day.
Observations of experiments
conducted at this Station lead us
to believe that the first three
uses of water are very much
the same at all times and that
the wide range in the daily
consumption of water is influ
enced by conditions of the
weather.
The two lessons which stand
out prominently as a result of
experiments are;
First, water is just as import
ant as feed.
Second, once or twice a day
is not often enough to supply
the water.

spirit in you and then

for your fireworks, apples,
oranges, and bananas and
all at lowest wholesale
prices.
