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

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.
