GET RETURNS FROM POULTRY
On Many Farms Products From Fowls
Can Be Counted on as Practically
Clear Profit.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
The farmer who raises the ordinary
grains and keeps some live stock has
perhaps the greatest opportunity that
has ever come to him for making
profit from poultry. The possibilities
for profit are perhaps not so large as
they used to be for the special poultry
farmer, and that fact may have led
some general farmers to believe that
the situation applies in some way to
them; but there exists Just here an
unusual paradox. The very conditions
that may make poultry and egg pro-
duction losing enterprise on the spe-
clalized poultry farm tend to make 1t
an Increasingly gainful one for the
general farmer. Where nearly all
of his feed has to be bought at high
prices, the margin between cost Of pro-
ductlOn and proceeds from sale be
comes extremely narrow, but where
practically all of the poultry feed Is
made up of waste materials that would
otherwise not be utilized in any man.
ner, the percentage of profit becomes
very much larger when prices are
high than 1t ever could have been
when prices were low. Poultry on
the farm obtain very great part of
their feed by foraging by cleaning the
waste from stable yards and feeding
lots, by consuming the scraps from the
kitchen door, by preying upon insect
pests in pasture and field, and in
only relatively small degree from
grain or other commodities that would
be marketable. A farmer whose poul'
try is fed in this way may count
all of the money received for eggs
and surplus poultry as practically
clear profit When. therefore, eggs
and poultry are selling at higher prices
than have usually been obtainable, the
farmers margin Of profit without ex-
pendture is very greatly Increased.
1t Is, therefore, TO the farmers of
the country that the nation must look
for the greater part of the immedl'
ate increase Of poultry products which
will make 1t possible TO supply our
own army and navy with red meats
and at the same time furnish the allies
with the animal foods they need.

Old WAYS Of rsIIlnu Time.

In the forests Of British Guiana lives
the hoactzln, a singular bird, whose
young possess free claw ut the end
of each wing, which they use almost as
the monkey uses his hands In tree
climbing.
The nest of the hoactzin is in tree
overhanging the water, and the young,
unlike most birds, are active from the
first.
The outermost quill feathers Of the
wing, which might hamper the free use
OF the claws, do not grow much until
the rest of the wing is strong enough
to make climbing less necessary. Then
they grow out, and the claws are abb
sorbed. The adult bird does not need
them. Should young hOactzin fail
