: Good Chickens Are Profitable Investment j Washington, D. C. —The story I of Reuben Lowe, of North Shapt lelgh, Me., Illustrates the possiJ ble profits from poultry keeping i where careful management is I practiced. During 1913 this poultryman, who devotes only part of his time to chicken raising, kept 250 birds, which paid him a profit over feed cost of more than SI,OOO, equivalent to $4 a bird. Included In this j amount are the sales of a few i eggs for hatching, about 30 cock- | t erels sold for breeding purposes I at $3.50 to $5 each, ns well as J the market eggs, which were disi posed of in large quantity. Mr. j Lowe keeps White Wyandottes ♦ of a strain that wins in the show I ring when judged according to J either the standard of perfec- , i tion or a utility standard. | One pen of 20 pullets owned ♦ by this Maine poultry raiser pro- ’ duced eggs as follows: Novemf her. 1918, 413; December, 1918, t 418; January, 1919. 380; Februi ary, 1919, 326; March, 1919, 456; f a total of 1,003 eggs, averaging f 99.65 eggs per bird in five j months. ! | It pays to keep poultry of this ♦ kind, and growers everywhere ; are coming to realize that there j is more money in keeping beti ter fowl and feeding them prop- ? erly balanced rations than in | wasting time with inferior birds.
