The Briggs System and 

 Get Big Poultry Profits 



The fourth edition of "Profits in Poultry Keeping Solved" gives the complete poultry system and 

 secrets of Edgar Briggs, the most successful poultry expert in ,Vmerica. It thoroughly covers every 

 branch of poultry-keeping from start to finish. I tells how to plan, build, and operate a poultry plant, 

 and market the product: how to get the most eggs: run incubators: raise nearly every chick hatched: 

 prevent diseases: how to make the best poultry feed tor 10 to 15 cts. per bushel: how to make the most 

 money and greatest success with poultry. There is nothing difficult or complicated about the Briggs' 

 System. 



Best, Simplest, Most Practical. 



Briggs' System calls for less eciuiptment, labor, and expense than any other system, and by it one 

 man can easily care for 2,000 layers and 3,000 chicks. 



Follow Briggs' System and Success is Yours. 



When this system is used, sick fowls are rarely seen, more eggs are hatched, more chicks are raised 

 to maturity, the egg-basket is filled oftener, and feed bill is cut way down.
