As SnugIy As Gown

With the new draped tech

BROILERS LEAD AS
MONEY CROP In SUSSEX
Report $500 Made on $500 Outlay
In Three Months; Many Make
Large Profits

Poultry raising seems to be one
industry in lower Delaware that is
thriving, even during the days of
depression, and those engaged in it
are making money. With the in
creased demand in the New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chester and
Wilmington markets, farmers of
Sussex County can well afford to
turn their attention to broiler rails
ing in preference to raising other
farm products less profitable.
Poultry culture rs proving even
more profitable than the buckwheat
crop. which only requires six weeks
from planting time to maturity and
sells for more than one dollar per
bushel. 1t also outclasses soybean
growing, even when they sold for
1925 per bushel back in 1916.
Broiler raisers. during the past
spring, almost doubled their money.
Those engaged in the business ON a
large scale cleared several thousands
of dollars. Extensive poultry houses,
with many thousands of day-old
chicks raised to six weeks old and
placed on the market, spells success
for those who are able to have the
proper equipment When a, man,
with less than ss1500 invested in
poultry houses. is able to make IN
less than three months $500, It is
time for others to sit up and take
notice.
Within the past decade Delaware
has rapidly come to the front as a
poultry producing state. and today
Sussex County, out of more than
1000 counties in the country. ranks
about fourteenth. Fifteen years ago.
Delaware is said to have ranked
about one hundredth in the list
of poultry sections. Back in 1927. /
the value of the poultry industry to
the Delmarva Peninsula was ap-
proximately s10,00O,O0O. Each year
it has grown by leaps an dbounds |
until il is recognized as the lead |
ing industry in lower Delaware.
There are. according to poultry |
specialists. six outstanding reasons !
why this section is suitable TO the
industry. They are: First, ideal eli
matte conditions: second, less dan
ger from internal parasites. because
Of easy drainage; third. home grown
leeds are easily Obtainable: fourth.
