AS denoted by the title of the book, the 

 editors have given most prominence 

 to the side of pouhry-keeping which 

 returns an income. The ways and means 

 by which eggs or pouhry can be grown at a 

 profit are discussed in detail. So many ques- 

 tions are constantly asked about the various 

 breeds and also concerning diseases and their treatment, that these topics have 

 been quite fully considered. The turkey department has been made as complete 

 as possible on account of the increasing interest in that branch of poultry-keeping. 



Incubators, care of chicks, feeding and care for eggs, or for meat, building coops and 

 houses, caponizing, marketing, warfare against pests, raising waterfowl and ornamental poul- 

 try, are described at length. The reference matter and tables are a special feature of the book. 



Experience of breeders and poultry farmers has been drawn upon freely, resulting in 

 that breadth of view which can be obtained onlj by comparison of successful methods in 

 actual practice. Among those who have directly assisted in furnishing the new matter are 

 many of the foremost experts and specialists.
