WOMEN As POULTRY RAIsgas.
Why They Are Specially Adapted to
the Business.


Poultry raising is one kind of stock
raising that is adapted especially to
women Brains count for more than
muscles in this department Of the
farm. and every expense of brain
force is rewarded by increased reve-
nues The women on the farm have
It in their power to make as great a
success Of poultry raising as their
husbands make Of the raising Of
horses, cattle. hogs or sheep. There
are thousands Of women engaged in
the raising Of poultry on a CONNER
cial scale and there are thousands Of
women on the farms that have
brought the science Of poultry rails
ing to such a perfection that the bust
ness is every year paying them a
large income
The education OF most women has
been in the direction of cleanliness IN
the house and tidiness about the
premises. This same kind Of educa.
ton is what is most needed in the
poultry establishment says the Farm
ers' Review. lthas often been solely
the lack Of this that has caused losses
in the poultry yards. The women on
the farm have all the advantage Of the
woman in the village in the way Of
poultry keeping. for they have the
raw material for The feeding Of the
poultry, all Of which the Village poul-
try keeper has to buy.
