FARM POULTRY PAYS
SAYS LOCAL LEADER
(Farm Pouttry Life.)
Some Interesting figures on the
Income from poultry on the farms
have recently been published by the
federal department of agrlrullure.
These figures were compiled from a
survey of 3S farms In Ohio ami prob
ably fairly represent average farm
conditions.
Doubtloss many will be somewhat
surprised to lnarn that poultry was
the second highest source ot Income
on these farms, averaging $1 69 per
farm, ot which $138 was for eggs.
Nearly half the farms realise over
$200. annually from poultry and
eggs. This was accomplished, ac
cording to the government report,
"without serious Interference with
the other farm operations." with
prices ranging from 15 to 38 cents
and with hens that laid only 86 eggs
a year. It Is not difficult to figure
the Increase in revenue that could
be made by replacing the low-pro
ducing mongrel flocks wtth good
stock.
As a revenue producer, the farm
flock of poultry ranks ahead of
many other classes of livestock, and
the report of this survey states that
"In addition to this enterprise be
ing one ot the leading sources of
Income. It Is further commendable
because tts receipts are distributed
throughout the year. They are
greatest during the early spring and
summer months, but there is not a
month In the year without some r
celnts from this source. Poultry Is
also ot considerable importance as
a source of the home food supply.'
Msny people raising poultry think
of Increased production only along
' the line of Increased numbers. This
Is a mistake. The necessary ob
ject to .be kept In view now Is In
creased revenue, and this can be
done better by raising ponltry along
lines ot practical common sense ex
parience. In other words. It Is bet
ter to raise ten good strong vigor
ous tbrollers, roasters or layers that
,will fetch you $15 than to raise 16
that will only fetch you 12 or pos
slbly at the most $15. This extra
value can be gotten only through
following our "Essential Features,"
the chief one now being early hatch
lng. For information as regards the
other features get In touch with
your local leader or community com'
mltteeman, county or home demon'
strstlon agent, or write your state
college. THBO. P. CRAMER.
