It waa not Ions before there were
some baby pigeons, yes, lots of them.
Noting tee rapidity wim wnicn tney in

chicken raising as a commercial enter

raising They have found It Immensely
profitable They own a plant which,
together with the land. Is worth 14,000
and contemplated Improvement will
bring th total valuation up to Some
thing like 17.800. - v; ;
There are some Interesting fact in
connection with the cultur of th pro

from eight to nine pair of birds a year,
