As shown in the financial statement, Table 38, the strong flocks produced enough more eggs than the weak to total 21 cents more per hen. Considering the value of the gain in weight, the cost of stock that died, and the cost of food, there remained a difference between the average strong and weak flocks of 14 cents per hen in favor of the strong flocks. Although the number of hens in the strong and weak flocks was the same at the start, the true total number* throughout the experiments was Fig. 169.— The cost of food required to produce one dozen eggs.
