ON A TOWN LOT 75 



SAVING ON THE COST OF LIVING 



I have had literally thousands of letters from families, 

 dotted here and there over the entire North American con- 

 tinent, telling me" that with the aid of a few good laying hens, 

 they have helped keep down the cost of living and had more 

 than the average laboring man's family (for example) can 

 boast in the way of an abundance of healthy food. 



For the little folks there is just as much fun raising a 

 few lively chickens, as there is managing a "herd" of rabbits. 

 But most boys and girls prefer the beauty of thoroughbred 

 poultry to any animal pets, besides they don't require so 

 much work and they produce a return in the form of eggs, 

 nearly every day. From an educational standpoint, they are 

 more valuable to the children then other pets, because they 

 combine profit with pleasure. 



BEGIN NOW! 



Any time but "too late" is a good time to start keeping 

 poultry, because if they are looked after with ordinary com- 

 mon sense, they will absolutely help to keep you.
