, MEAT MEAL OFTEN RANCID Poultry meats In the dried form are made from hotel scraps, broken-down animals, tdughtcr-house refuse, fertilizer fer-tilizer tankage, etc. In every case, nearly, there Is chance that the materials ma-terials become tainted before cooking, with a resulting high flavor if no worse. In addition to this It is the case that various brands differ so much In quality qual-ity that it is necessary to be familiar with the brand or to have accurate information in-formation respecting it or one cannot feed it intelligently. One popul.tr brand claims a guaranteed guar-anteed analysis of 40 per cnt. I sent samples of another which did not guarantee guar-antee any analysis to our experiment station and it was reported to carry J0 per cent of protein. Tho brands differ widely in fat content also. There is one brand of dry poultry meat on tho market which Is supposed lo be composed of liver only. One would expect ex-pect it to be high in protein. I do not think that this is claimed for it. however. how-ever. - Theoretically it ought to furnish fur-nish tho very best of poultry meat, but it Is very hard to distinguish from dirt when ground, and this is true of some other brands as to the finer portion. por-tion. Often, too, there is wool or hair I mixed with the meal, and this must be detrimental. Poultry keepers are rather keen for haslets, which are never In large supply sup-ply in our locality. In these they get liver, with other meit and some waste. The largest poultry farm I ever visited used haslets, boiling them and mixing the mafh with tho hot liquid in which they were boiled. The Australian contest con-test people used boiled liver twice a week and no other meat. This is not heavy feeding, apparently, appar-ently, yet they got results so good that thlrty-tlve out of 800 were lost "from excessive laying." and if I understand the language of the report the heat deaths al?o had this trouble as a b;:sls. One may get deodorized bloodmeai and avoid tho fat. bone and strong odor objections to the ordinary meal, but this Is so very concentrated that many think it unwise to use it. S. C. Valentine.
