MONEY IN THE BACKYARD.-ALL 

 our readers who live on a farm 

 or have a backyard in the vllage 

 want to make money, and can do it if 

 they go at it right. There is probably nothing 

 else on which so much money can be made 

 with a small space of ground than by atten- 

 tion to poultry, and it don't need to interfere 

 with your other business. In a small town in 

 New jersey (Hammonton) thousands of dol- 

 lars are annually laid by from the sale of 

 poultry. One man, with less than an eighth 

 of an acre of ground, annually clears over 

 IIOOO; but, ot course, he makes it his only 

 business. There are 40 broiler farms there, 

 the whole work being inaugurated by P. H . 

 Jacobs, editor of the Poultkv Keeper, who 

 lives at Hammonton. Now, to do these 

 things, you must study the question in all its 

 phases and know what others have done and 

 are doing, and to do this there is probably no 

 better or complete way than to read the 

 Poultry Keeper, which is acknowledged 

 to be the leading poultry paper of the world, 

 being read by many thousands of people. It 

 is published monthly, at only 50 cents a year, 

 by tlie Poultry Keeper Co., Parkersburg, 

 Chester Co., Pa., and you can get a sample 

 copy free, by writing a postal card to them. 

 It is filled full up with the experiences of 

 those who are making the business a success. 

 Tells how to make and manage incubators 

 and brooders; how to build poultry houses; 

 how to take care of poultry, how to cure dis- 

 eases; how ti) preserve eggs; and has special 

 artlclet on ducks, geese, turkeys, with hun- 

 dreds of illustrations. Even the sample copy 

 you will receive will be worth a dollar. Try 

 it. Sample copy free to all by addresslnt; as
