Intensive Chicken Raising.

A great flock of chickens may be
raised on very small piece of ground
by keeping the birds confined in coops.
This plan has been successfully followed
by several Western chicken raisers. The
birds are transferred from one coop to
another as they grow and demand more
room. but there is no chance for them
to waste energy in exercise; they ma
ture more rapidly and are ready for
the market several weeks in advance Of
birds that are allowed TO run.
