breeds. The trap nest serves a use
full purpose. They are to the pouI-

Another reason for full bloods is

While you are making some money
at poultry raising, why not make all
you can?
If you are making nice money with
mixed breeds, under ordinary condi-
tons, why not raise full bloods and
be in a position to sell fowls and
eggs for breeding purposes? No de-
mand, do you say? Well, sir, there is
a demand. A nice flock of full bloods
commands admiration. They will TO
