Tbs Poultry Industry.

It is a fact not generally known that
of all farm products poultry stands fifth
in value. It is estimated that the cash
derived from the sale of poultry and eggs
amounts to half billion dollars annual
1y It is believed that this amount is be-
ing rapidly increased each year, due to
the fact that farmers are beginning to re-
alize the profits there are in well cared
for flock of hens. When all poultry keep
ers fully appreciate how easy it is to in
crease the productiveness of their fowls,
it is fair to assume that this branch of
farm products will advance well toward
first place in relative value. The follow
ing letter from c. D. Chatterton of West
Brookfeld, VT, indicates the way in
which some are increasing their egg pro-
duction. He says: II have used Pages
Perfected Poultry Food for the last two
years, and / got one third more eggs than
before. | can't get along without it. z"
IF you want to know more about this
food and the best ways of using it, write
to c. S. Page, Hyde Park, VT, for his
booklet, profitable Poultry" 1t will
be sent free, postpaid, to anyone men
tioning this paper.
