Poultry Profitabl. sid.line.

A net return Of nearly $500 in two
and One-haf months from a side
line on the farm is the record made
by q Glendale. ArizOnia, poultry
raiser, who is carrying on his Oper
atiOns under the direction Of . pOul
try extension expert of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
In connection with his general farm
work he kept flOk of 2l0 hens.
which produced an average Of 10
dozen eggs during the four winter
months. During February the eggs
brought an average of IS cents q
dozen, or approximately $50, while
the feed bill, including the feed for
the young chicks, amounted to $50.
The following month the flock
showed q profit of little over $lOO.
During the first half of April the
gross receipts were $3.50. In April
the extension specialist conducted
q culling demonstration on this
farm and weeded 56 hens from the
flock. The culled hens were kept in
q seperate pen for q week following
the demonstration, and made prac-
tically no returns in egg yields.
This indicates, the specialist says,
that the remaining 154 hens pro-
badly made the record with which
the entire PIG had been credited.
