FARM POULTRY
PROVIDES GOOD FOOD FOR THE FAMILY.
GIVES SOMETHING TO SELL EACH WEEK.
FITS WITH DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
It is a Billion Dollar Cash Crop
The poultry census is taken only every 10 years. Th-t last cen
sus showed there we e in the Unitel States 360,000,000 chickens.
They prootivd ’ 836,000,000 dozen e-gs. The year’s production
of chick ns Bad cgt^i brought $1,048,090,000.
i.iccty per cent of this billion dollars goes to farmers or rather
to far?’e . wiv 3. These j oed wives spend it for groceries, cloth
ing, lijl.ts. waihilv; m bines, rugs, pictures, books, phonographs.
Ii we should tak the poultry money out of a farm community, the
country town mere*, -.its would wonder what had happened to their
business.

Higher labor and feed prices, our newer knowledge of the fac
tors making for economical and successful egg production, and an
increasing demand for a standardized pi oduct on the part of the
consumer are factors which are forcing many farm folks to make
adjustments in their flocks. Farm poultry is fast getting down to
a more busin zs-like basis.
We have just received a number of booklets giving the results
of several experiment stations and s iccessful poultry men, of
Hatching. Rrooding, Culling and F.cding, as well as labor saving
devices in the care of Chickens, Ducks, Geese aud Turkeys Cop
