STIMULATE POULTRY
Raising IN State
Movement Is Begun To Sc
cure State Aid in Solving
Perplexing Problem

DOVER, Del, July 2S.-Poultry
raising promises TO become one Of the
profitable businesses in Delaware
which are akin to agriculture. Ac-
cording to the last census, in 1909, the
Delaware poultry products amounted
to 100000 for the year Since then
strides have been made in the indus
try, in the towns as well as on the
farms, and a large number Of COM
mercial plants given over to this ono
business have been established. Grier
Brothers, at Milford; Oliver A. New
ton, at Bridgeville, and Cummins
Speakman, at Smyrna, recently have
undertaken poultry raising on a large
scale. With the new attention paid
the industry, it is estimated that the
total of poultry products for 1914 will
reach S2,5O0O0O.
Little stimulus. aside from lectures
and discussions at the farmers insti-
tutes. have been given poultry raising
by the state. Yet merely these lectures
have done much to stimulate the in
dustry. It is now maintained that a
poultry department at the state eX-
perimental station would be of great
value to the poultry raisers and the
state.
Connecticut, with no greater rural
population than Delaware, sells near
ly S4,000,000 worth of poultry and
products therefrom each year. Maine
does between $4,000. 900 and $4,000 900
OF this business. Both these states
nave their state experimental stations
engaged in stimulating the poultry
raising industry.
To make the poultry industry full
fill its possibilities in Delaware, a
movement has been begun 10 secure
state aid in solving the problems that
confront poultry raisers. A poultry
department likely will ne established
at Newark and an international egg
laying department will be added at
the state experimental station Here,
by means of competitive exhibits and
egg-laying contests, the poultry IN
dustry in Delaware will be given the
impetus it needs
