THE POULTRY INDUSTRY

1t is fact not generally known
that Of all farm products poultry
stands fifth in value. 1t is estimated
that the cash derived from the sale
of poultry and eggs amounts to half
a billion dollars annually. 1t is be-
lieved that this amount is being rap
idly increased each year, due to the
fact that farmers are beginning to re-
alize the profits there are in a well
cared for flock of hens. When all
poultry keepers fully appreciate how
easy IT is to increase the productive
ness of their fowls, it is fair to as
sumo that this branch of farm prod
ucts will advance well toward first
place in relative value. The follow
ing letter from c. d. Chatterton of
West Brookfield, VT, indicates the
way in which some are increasing
their egg production. He SAYS. Il

Food for the last two years and I got
