BIG RETURNS FROM POULTRY
Arizona Farmer Made Profit Of Nearly
$500 From Small Flock in Short
Space Of Time.

prepared, by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
A net return Of nearly $500 in two
and one-half months from side line
on the farm Is the record made by
Glendale, Ariz., farmer who is carry
ing on his operations under the direc-
ton of poultry extension expert Of
the United States department of agri-
culture. In connection with his gen.
eral farm work he kept flock Of 21O
hens, which produced an average Of
ten 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 500. During
the first half Of April the gross re-
ceipts were $97.5O. In April the ex-
tension specialist conducted culling
demonstration on this farm and weed
ed So hens from the flock. The culled
hens were kept In separate pen for
Q week following the demonstration,
and made practically no returns in egg
yields. This indicates, the specialist
Gays, that the remaining 154 hens
probably made the record with which
the entire 21O had been credited.
