How Much to Invest. 



This, of course, depends largely on the circumstances. If you 

 have abundant means and delight in some hobby and want to make 

 a fancy proposition out of it, why you can make your ponds as 

 expensive and picturesque as you wish. But for those who wish to 

 make a business for the benefit of the income to be derived, should 

 start with a small pond and about six pairs of Frogs. Then gradu- 

 ally increase your breeding pond as your stock and ability to handle 

 it demands. Don't start with Frogs under four years of age. They 

 will be the cheapest in the end.
