As a Business. 



If you are going into Frog Raising as a business, we recom- 

 mend that you make a small beginning, for nothing is more dis- 

 couraging, after having gone into a business exclusively, than to 

 have reverses in the start and lose a large portion of your invest- 

 ment for want of a little practical experience. Many persons have 

 met failure by starting on a large scale at first, and without prac- 

 tical experience, where had they started small might to-day be a 

 grand success. This caution applies in all business ventures, and 

 it's the mistake that is made and cause of most failures. 



When to Begin. 



We recommend the active work to begin in the early spring. 

 Get your ponds ready as soon as possible. Get your stock and place 

 it early, so it becomes familiar with its new quarters before the 

 breeding season sets in.
