98 METHODS OF POULTRY MANAGEMENT. 



On many large poultry plants little or nothing is received for 

 the manure. Probably few poultry plants save more than one- 

 half the fertilizing elements possible, if proper methods of 

 treatment and shelter were used. If the droppings are treated 

 by the methods described above, and are kept properly sheltered, 

 the saving on any large poultry farm would in i to 3 years 

 easily equal the cost of a permanent shed similar to the one 

 here described.
