have too little of it. Excepting r. ".

made no effort TO sell eggs and being
content with the raising of little

own use. With the start he had in the
way of stock and his prestige as a
ribbon tai1er he could have made his
poultry pay him more than his regular
business. He admits this and yet has
reduced his flock, keeping only the
best, to pursue the fancy in an ANA
