Fourthly, Mrs. Seattle and her brother
are determined at all hazards TO Sc
cure the chart which Digby Is to hand
to them tomorrow evening. The girl
thinks this so important that she has
practically risked her life to give you
the warning. BY the way, didn't you
say that Lancaster was to meet you

Seattle and her brother know Of this.

morrow evening that interview with

PURE BRED FOWLS FAVORED
They VIII Realize Good Profits II
Properly Cared For-interestins
Work for Farmer.

II. in writing on the old. old subject
of the advantages of raising pure-bred
fowls l can influence even one farmer
of the southern or eastern territory to
discard the old focks and in its place
raise stock which will be a credit to
himself and the section Of the country
in which he lives, / will indeed feel
that have not wasted time and space.
says a writer in the Atlantic Poultry
Journal.
There Is no doubt as to the stability
OF the poultry industry. The tendency
in all of the large cities is toward su-
burban homes and the pursuit Of rus
tic labors as a pastime. Poultry forms
one of the most pleasant diversions
for these small farmers, and the initial
stock must constantly be supplied.
Amy man who produces birds good
enough to take premiums at the fall
and winter shows and then advertises
eggs and stock for sale, will meet with
little difficulty in disposing Of them.
Any business, by careful attention
and intelligent management can be
made successful and the poultry in
dustry Is no exception.
With a little careful reading any
farmer can learn how to improve his
stock and profits. and he will soon
find that poultry raising is a very in
teresting part of the farm work, as
well as one which amply repays for
the amount Of labor and money ex-
pended.
The slow steady growth of a flock
of poultry is more to be desired than
a large investment in fancy stock
without previous experience. Study
just what line Of the poultry business
Is best suited to your local environ
ment and then get to work and see
