Nurseries (Horticulture) Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Nursery stock Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Flowers Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Vegetables Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Fruit Tennessee Memphis Catalogs; Gardening Tennessee Memphis Equipment and supp. Mineralized Red Comb Mashes •"^•w HE value of a feed which is balanced with a complete / ^ complex mineral has been proven, both by experimen- tal work and practical use. The body of a fowl con- tains approximately eight to nine per cent of mineral mat- ter. The egg, including the shell, is approximately one-third mineral. Fowls must obtain this mineral in their feed. Con- tinuous cropping has so reduced the mineral matter in the soil that at the present time crops do not contain sufficient amounts of minerals for feeding purposes. In addition, poul- try is penned in a small area and naturally it cannot pick up the material it would ordinarily get if it were allowed to range. Minerals must then be supplied in the feed. Minerals are used in practically every body function. They aid in breaking down the nutrients of the feed, they stimu- late digestion, they regulate other body functions and are contained in practically every cell. They maintain the acid basis reaction of the cells. Heart action is controlled by minerals, besides the bone is largely mineral matter and feathers contain large amounts of minerals. A hen that is fed a mineralized feed has greater vitalit3r, less mortality and produces more and better quality eggs. Chicks fed such a feed are better able to ward off diseases. This naturally reduces mortality. The body and feather growth is exceptional and the bone develops strongly and uniformly. Poultrymen that are using Mineralized Red Comb Mashes are well satisfied and enthusiastic about them.
