THE MOST PROFITABLE POULTRY 



The United States Department of Agri- 

 culture officially says that the general-pur- 

 pose breeds of poultry, such as the Plym- 

 outh Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island 

 Reds and Orpingtons, should be kept on the 

 farm, rather than small-egg breeds or 

 mongrel stock, and that dark-plumaged 

 varieties do not, as a rule, look as well 

 when dressed as poultry of other colors. 



A flock of fowls of the same breed and 

 color produces a more uniform product, 

 which invariably secures to the owner 

 higher prices than can be derived from 

 the product of a mongrel flock. 



As soon as the hatching season is over, 

 all male birds should be marketed. 



As soon as the cockerels weigh three- 

 quarters of a pound, they should be penned 

 for 10 or 12 days and fed all they will eat 

 of corn chop or a wet mash composed of 

 2 parts corn meal, 1 part bran and 1 part 

 low-grade flour. If this mixture can be 

 dampened with skin milk, it will add much 

 to its fattening and bleaching qualities. 

 Birds that are being fattened should be 

 fed in troughs rather than in litter, as 

 exercise at this time is not conducive to 

 rapid gains in weight. The birds should 

 be kept as quiet as possible.
