POULTRY COSTS GREATER
PERIOD ENDING NOV. /,

Orono, July 6-Poultry costs for
the year ending November, l., 1923
were eleven percent greater than
Tor the previous twelve months Pc
riod. according to records kept by
i47 poultrymen covering 22,0O8 birds.
Grain increased 1875 percent. The cy-
| erage cost was $4.O1 perbird; returns
S6.45, making labor return of $2.44
which is $.38 per bird less than in
1922. Costs advanced without any
/ material advance in prices. This
I would indicate clearly the necessity
for watching costs very closely the
coming year and make sure that the
| methods followed are such as will
give the largest production per bird
and the greatest return for products
marketed.
The average price received for eggs
during the year was Al cents per
dozen against 40 cents the previous
year. Poultry has for "a considerable
number of years been one of the best
paying farm enterprises in the state
and with proper methods, will doubt
less continue to be. On the other
hand, eggs are being produced in in
creasingly larger quantities through
out the country. It therefore stands
the poultryman well in hand to
watch market conditions carefully
and be ready to govern his business
accordingly.
The records furnished by each CO.
operator consisted of an inventory
OF flock and equipment at the begin
ming and end Of the year, report
covering expenses and receipts for
each month and a series of question
naires showing methods Of housing.
feeding and general management fol-
lowed.
