FARM POULTRY SHOWS LARGE PROFITS. r85 Rhode Island Hens, belonging to Mrs. Amos Sanders of Fulton County, Ind,, Laid -3.950 eggs during- year6 Records tiled ia the office of the agent of Fultou County, show that Lira. Amos Handera, living three miles west of Rochester, received $721.63 for C94 houra of wort, which ia less than 50 days of s hours each or I14.8S per day lor ber service. This is an average of 129 eggs per hen H is eaiil that the equipment on the Bandera farm is no better than the average farm any where in Indiana; that the housea used are very ordinary, However Mrs. Handera has used every precaution lu selecting her dock aod has selected the pure breed, and has only those which are profitable lay ers Mrs. Handera received au average of 42 cents per do2n for the eggs. A small premium iv&s obtaiued for eome eggs sold for hatching; this nske attributes to her careful selection of the profitable birds thus attracting many nearby farmers as customers for hatching eicgs. Heavy eggs production has been the main reason for this success. This production is not the result of any SECRET but the combination of good stock, early h&lchJag, proper feeding and good housing conditions. He'f feeding device, dropping boards, and other equipment, combined, contributed a large part toward reducing the time required to look after the flock. What Mrs. Sanders lias done with her poultry flock' simply illustrates the ' possibilities which are within reach of all I annexe. It is simply a matter of applying good methods in a common sense way. Why not have sonie of such farms in Jennings county when It ia possible to receive t pr hour for your time spent? 2L fra. Banders fei such feed as raked on the farm, and supplied tankage and taya that she fed them with tlx. per cent of the amount obtained and charged herself with an additional ten I per cent for depreciation of equipment.
