When you see a woma: aring for her garden yo A WOMAN WHO HA| 'LUCK, and one who lace >ve the soiling of her hands rave us in his talk on the 20th insl n regard to our making preparatic or a big production of poultry atl ggs this winter. He advises thi hough feed be high we should n< acrinico our stock, but, should plar vney available spa,,e In fooda , them.' We can be sure of good pricei for both eggs and poultry the coming n winter. Ile laid great strqss on how >r fortunately we are situated for poul )r try raising-our climate being such that we can put off baby chicks each month in the year and raise them with little expense or trouble, since we - can grow all necessary food cheaply and have green feed for them the year round. He spoke of the value of corn and cow peas as a balance ra 0 tion for baby chicks, laying hens and fattening chickens for market. He is anxious that we should cater to the tourist hotel trade in Florida this g winter, and has kindly offered to come back and show us how to kill, dry, pick pack and ship our poultry. - We must not think that any old egg or any old hen packed and shipped in any old way will bring a good price. One of the things Prof. Hare is try Y ing to teach us is to make our pro duce look attractive to the consumer. and by careful han'dling bring our produce into demand. People who pay good prices must have quality. It is to be hoped that every mem ber of the Poultry Association will t make preparation for a big egg yield e this' winter and that we will have thousands of broilers ready to ship in December and January and Febru ary. It will not do to neglect the n chicks and let hundreds of them die e with sore head, limber neck and other diseases, as they did last year, when one hen can be sold for enough to buy Fer Sul to last a year. , The Poultry Association wishes to thank the woman who complimented 1 it so highly when she said, "We used to enjoy eating chicken in Manning until the organization of the old . Poultry Association, but now chick , ens cost too much, one cannot enjoy 1 them any more." Lady dear, do not e wish us bad luck, but the next time Prof, Hare is with us come to our meeting and get him to tell you how e cheaply a home-made fireless brooder can be made and the success two city men had in raising hundreds of 1' day old chicks in these home-made g brooders. Mr. Cleveland will tell you of his success in keeping a few hens in two piano boxes and being able to put down eggs in water-glasses last summer when they were cheap. It is not necessary to have a farm to e raise a few chickens and eggs for s one's table. d Mrs. F. P. Ervin, President Clarendon Poultry Asso.
