dent of the American Poultry Associa-
ton, spoke on Poultry as Farm Pro-
duct" He said the poultry show held in
connection with the Hagerstown fair gave
ample evidence that many Washington
county farmers knew how to raise poultry
N the farm. He explained that farmers
generally were neglecting their poultry,
osing sight of one of the best paying and
most ready sources of revenue the affords.
Comparing eggs with other farm crops,
Ic showed that 666 dozen eggs, valued at
$3.50. only took 81 Sc worth of fertility
from the farm, while wheat took $40 90,
milk S14 0S, cheese $11 GA, live cattle
1888 timothy hay 1854 for each
respective $3.50 worth. AS remedy for
gapes he suggested plowin g the chicken
runs three times a season and scattering
freely with air-slacked lime. Asafetida,
in size of half a grain of wheat, is a speedy
remedy for gapes Local fanciers sent in
some Light Brahams and Langshans, and
