MORE CHICKENS AND EGGS.

More chickens and more eggs ] will release more meat for our ( armies and the alites. They J cannot get our chickens and i eggs—we can, and like to eat J them. Poultry can be increased more ' rapidly and more economically ■ than any of the meat animals. Chickens will live largely and grow and prosper on waste that never otherwise would be of use, and will eat the\ infant Wfigs, particularly, orchard pests, before they have had opportunity to do great harm. Chickens require a minimum of attention. Most of it can be given by women and children. No heavy labor is required. Chickens will help win the war.
