With these great markets available
and with such delivery service,
there is little wonder why Del-Mar-
Va is fast becoming one of Americas S
outstanding poultry centers. Com
mercial egg production is but one of
the specialized phases on the penin-
sula Large broiler plants are in ev-
idence. Reputable brooding estab-
lishments are fast taking hold.
Enormous hatcheries, such as the
Truslow Hatchery at Chestertown,
Md, bring money and fame to Del
Mar-Va. Just on the outskirts of Do
yer, Del, one of the finest speci-
mems of the modern broiler plant
can be found. That plant is William
Haas broiler plant, where 10000
birds are always being fed for meat
production to meet the demands of
the metropolitan centers for poultry
meat.
Besides the money-making possi-
bilities in poultry-raising, poultry
men have been attracted to Del
Mar-Va for other reasons. The pen
insula is historic SOIL One can step
from busy city streets into scenes
that are legacies of colonial days.
In every county there are charming
old homesteads, many of them in the
same family for generations and
many of them the homes of outside
folks who have come from afar to
live on the peninsula because of its
climate and natural beauty. There
is no doubt that to those who are
looking for home sites, whether for
estates of modern country residen-
ces, the Del-Mar-Va peninsula is a
land of wide selections. Del-Mar-Va
offers a real opportunity to the
truck farmer as well as the general

farmer. Each season the peninsula
markets more than thirty different
farm crops. Farmers and truck far
mers are blessed with a long grow
ing season from 1856 to 210 days of
the year. Diversity of marketable
crops and possibilities of raising
two or three crops in each season
make Del-Mar-Va unusual and pro-
fitable for the farmer and truck
grower With poultry raising add
ed to fruit growing or truck raising,
there is real money being made. The
door to success with poultry is wide
open in Del-Mar-Va.
