BROILERS FOR MARKET.
Catering to the Demand for
Br0iled Chicken.

Broilers have made money for some
men; they have lost it for others. The
difference in results was occasioned
by the difference in the men, their
ways of getting the birds from shell
to market, not in the broilers. Elk
perience is the best teacher, but it is
not advisable to pay too much for the
teacher. 1t would be folly for a man
because he had money, tn pay n pro-
fessor of mathematics in some of our
colleges $1,000 a year to teach his boy
the rudiments of mathematics when
he could get 4 teacher well versed in
primary arithmetic for a few dollars
per month So it is folly FOR man to
20 into the broiler business, on a large
scale for the experience. Learn by be-
ginning in a small way. Read the ex-
pcrience of others; if possible visit the
broiler establishments of those VIII ,

poultry farming. But after reading
and visiting do not think You know it

few thousand dollars and lose all in

that is at it's height in the summer

A good plan for STRAIT is to have
small brooder house and two incu-
bators with capacity of 200 eggs
each. With this little outfit you could
run a small broiler bushes in connec-
ton with other work from which to
get living. As one becomes posted
in the business it may be enlarged I'M
til the whole time is devoted to it. In
that broiler center ct this country.

from October to July virtually abide
in their brooder houses.

four or five months before there is

only an incubator or SO is used the
'place" need not be house built ex-
pressly for the purpose. The same is
true as regards the brooders. though
a brooder house is more necessary
than an incubator house when the
