Bo's 



Net income depends upon efficient management and 

 each phase of the latter must be mastered. 



Feed a well-balanced chick ration to the very young 

 and growing stock. 



Be sure the ration fed to laying stock is adapted to 

 their needs in egg production. 



Sanitation measures are fundamental in good manage- 

 ment and their neglect may be fatal. 



Follow the management recommendations of practical 

 and successful poultrymen. 



Use the marketing system best adapted to the locality 

 and the personal factor of sales ability. 



Determine possibilities of selling ducks, geese, turkeys 

 and other fowl as a means of supplementing income 

 from chickens. 



Remember each type of poultry requires specific 

 management. 



Don'ts 



Don't neglect scientific feeding of the poultry flock. 



Don't go into poultry production on a large scale with- 

 out experience. 



Don't neglect local markets as outlets for the sale of 

 eggs and poultry and don't make shipment of eggs 

 and stock to commission houses of unknown rating. 



Don't over-extend in poultry investment to the point 

 where temporary reversal would be disastrous.
