investment. Unless a beginner has
a sound knowledge of production
and marketing problems, he will be
seriously handicapped.
The poultry population has in-
creuKcd more than 30 per cent since
1930 Numbers of eggs on the m ar

longer possible to make a satisfac
tory income from the poultry busi
ness.
