From Farmers Review: Some
times we hear the remark that in q

ply of poultry and poultry products
At the rate at which the poultry 0usi-
ness IS increasing. The item that the
United States receives In Imports 10
100000 dozen eggs yearly win hardly
agree with the above Not only are
sggs imported. but pounds and pounds
Of dressed poultry. From this Il would
seem there Is no danger Of over pro

population Increases as fast or faster
than the production OF poultry IN
creases and every year sees great
increase Ia the consumption OF pour
try Just as rapidly as we produce ana
furnish to consumers eggs and poultry
In attractive and palatable shape the
consumption win increase also the
price. Americans especially do not
kick much on the price they pay for
eatables II the eatables are good. The
appetite for eggs and poultry Is en-
larging very rapidly. but to get good
prices for them the eggs must be fresh
and the poultry fat and healthy.
Use care in gathering and sending
the eggs to market; do not send them
with dirty shells. Lately much has
been said and a little proven that eggs
whose shells have been washed will
decay sooner because the washing de-
stroys the gloss OF the she'll which 4

Samuel Cushman says One most
important reason for non-success In

farmers who carry a stock Of poultry

while It is perhaps true that even our
farmers do not have q full conception
of the work necessary 20 manage q

such farmers are keeping poultry IN

business. The poultry as an adjunct
