IS THERE MONEY IN POULTRY? 
surplus, the poultryman must compete. His only hope of suc- 
cessful competition is production at lower cost. Can this be 
done? It is being done, and the numbers of people who are 
doing it are increasing, but they spend little money at poultry 
shows, or with the advertisers of poultry papers, and hence 
are little heard of in the poultry world. 
The people whose names and faces are in the poultry papers 
are frequently there only while their money lasts. They write 
long articles and show pictures of many houses and yards to 
prove that there is money in the poultry business, but if one 
should keep their names and put the question to them five 
years hence, a great many could say, “Yes, there is money in 
the poultry business; mine is in it.” 
Such people and such plants do not get the cost of produc- 
tion down below the farmer’s level. Between these two class- 
es of poultry plants, the writer hopes in this work to show the 
distinction. \
