CHICKENS AND EGGS.

The chicken and egg business is one
OF The largest industries carried on in
the United States. The September Is
sue of Success deyotes considerable
attention to this apparently small bust
ness which is carried on on such a
large scale. There are forty three mil
lion crates of eggs produced in the
United States each year with a valu-
alton of s2So. 600 900. which is more
than the total value Of all the gold,
silver. wool ami sheep produced in
America in the same length of time
and over twelve times as much as the
entire sugar production in the country.
There is one farmer in the United
States who keeps a flock of 10000
chickens and he makes an annual
profit OF about 800 per thousand.
This is not much OF profit when il
is brought down to one chicken, but
il makes a pretty good income when
ii comes up to 80 600 chickens. 1t is
doubtful if chickens and eggs have
ever sold at as high prices in the
history of the world as they do at the
present time. That is. the last sew
eral months on the average. Eggs are
eggs nowadays. and chickens are nj
most worth their weight in gold.
