POULTRY RAISING 



65 



foot board sawed in half in the center. Put a loft-floor in 

 this house at eaves and fill the top with straw. Do not put 

 on a tight loft-floor ; a floor of poles would work all right. 

 You should also line the sides in the same way, and you 

 would have a very warm house, where you could get 

 eggs in any kind of a winter. 



I want to say right here the Leghorn plants of this 

 country are the only plants up to the present time that 

 have made money in a market way. Eggs for market, at 

 market prices, have made many of them rich. 



All that have tried the larger breeds, such as Wyan- 

 dottes, Rocks, etc., have failed at it in a market way, so 

 they have all had to go in the fancy, or give it up entirely.
