WOULD START A POULTRY FARM.

WOULD START A POULTRY FARM.
A nearby reader Of these notes, a
young man who has but limited
amount of money to invest in any
business enterprise. writes for sugges-
lions as to how and when he could
to best advantage start poultry farm.
He expresses a preference to be near
some body Of running water so that
he could keep ducks and geese as well
as chickens. and would like enough
land to raise the grain needed in his
operations. 1t would be impossible to
state without knowing conditions in
timately whether one town were bet
ter than another as market for poul-
try products. There is little question
that there are many where the condi-
tons would be all right. Success in
any case would depend more upon
the man than the conditions. We
would suggest to our friend that he
visit several of his nearest market
centers, inquire the price Of small
parcels Of land which would be suit
able for poultry raising. try to as
certain the cost of buildings, equip
ment. etc, when he would be in shape
to make a wise decision. If he has
not had considerable experience in
poultry raising he would do well to
start in on modest scale, enlarging
his operations as he acquires familiari
ty with the business.
