Excerpt
MORE POULTRY NEEDED
BE A PRODUCER
1 — KEEP BETTER POULTRY:
Standard-bred poultry increases production and improves the quality.
2 — SELECT VIGOROUS BREEDERS:
Healthy, vigorous breeders produce strong chicks.
3 — HATCH THE CHICKS EARLY:
Early hatched pullets produce fall and winter eggs.
4 — PRESERVE EGGS FOR HOME USE:
Preserve when cheap for use when high in price.
5 — PRODUCE INFERTILE EGGS:
They keep better. Fertile eggs are necessary for hatching only.
6 — CULL THE FLOCKS:
Eliminate unprofitable producers and reduce the feed bill.
7 — KEEP A BACK- YARD FLOCK:
A small flock in the back yard will supply the family table.
8 — GROW YOUR POULTRY FEED:
Home-grown feed insures an available and economical supply.
9 — EAT MORE POULTRY AND EGGS:
By eating poultry and eggs more freely you will conserve the meat supply.
