THE CHICKEN is of value to man because it converts various plant and animal materials, which are not satisfactory as human food, into meat and eggs that are very desirable and nutritious foods. The process of conversion is one in which materials of relatively high carbohydrate content are changed into products of relatively high protein content. Moreover, the protein in the resulting meat and eggs is of better quality than that which was originally present in the feed of the chickens. Other changes also take place.
