*The Comings Cleared $ 1 2,000* 

 In One Year From Eggs 



Readers of The Garden Magazine are probably familiar by this time with the Comings' remarkable story 

 — how they started raising eggs four years ago with thirty hens; how in their fourth year they cleared 

 $12,000, or $6.41 per hen on 1953 pullets; how this winter they have 4000 hens, and are getting up to 75 

 cents per dozen for their eggs. 



They have made a great success of this business, all because they have learned to produce the finest 

 eggs, in great quanities, just when prices are highest. We are not sorry for the New Yorkers who paid 

 75 cents a dozen for Corning eggs. The eggs are worth every cent of it, and more. WE ARE SORRY 

 for those who have chickens, or a place to keep chickens, and are so far behind the procession that they 

 are not making their hens pay a handsome profit. Properly managed, as the Comings do it, any one 

 ought to be able to come close to the Corning mark of $6.41 per hen per year. We make no promises, 

 however — merely wish to say that the 



CORNING EGG-BOOK 



(entitled "$6.41 per Hen per Year") tells in detail HOW the $12,000 profit in a year was made; gives 



absolutely all the essential infor- 



mation about this business; de- RPQSQS SSfSSSrVP 



scribes how and where the Com- 

 ings get their market; how they 

 produce perfect, clean, fine- 

 flavored, sterile eggs, how they 

 keep their pullets laying all win- 

 ter, getting bushels of eggs when 

 others get none, how they mix 

 their dry mash to produce eggs, 

 how they can keep 1500 pullets 

 in perfect health in 2560 square 

 feet, how they get eggs at a cost 

 of only 14 cents a dozen, etc., etc. 

 Remember, the Corning 

 Egg-Book is not an encyclo- 

 pedia; it tells nothing of raising broilers in 10 weeks or any other period; it promises no fortunes from four 

 hens in a dry-goods box; it has nothing to say about beautiful, no-egg fowls for the show-room. What 

 it does tell, and tells as it never has been told before, is how two men 



MAKE MONEY OUT OF COMMERCIAL EGGS 



and the methods others must follow if they wish to produce equal results. 



The FARM JOURNAL now offers, FOR THE LAST TIME THIS WINTER, its remarkably 

 attractive combination of the Corning Egg-Book with a two year subscription to the brightest little home 

 and farm paper on this planet. See offer below. 



F¥ l is a farm paper, but it is far more than this. It is for everybody outside of a 



0.1111 JOlirricll big city flat; it is equally at home in town, village, suburbs, or on the rural 

 routes. It is for "humans," not fat hogs; fat hogs are all right, but they do not come first. Every reader 

 of The Garden Magazine will enjoy and learn to love the FARM JOURNAL as do its nearly 700,000 

 present subscribers, scattered all over the United States. 



Poultry, the Farm, the Home, Horses, Swine, Sheep, the Cow and Dairy, Bees, Fruit and Garden 

 occupy their proportionate share in every issue. Then there are the less technical and material pages 

 devoted to matters of the home — fashions, housekeeping, recipes and bright, fresh reading for the 

 younger members of the family.

<lrlll JOUiIia.1 columns receive the most careful scrutiny of our editioral department and the 

 bars are up all the time against medical, deceptive, suggestive or nasty advertising of any kind whatever.

 Farming 



Among people who can afford luxuries 

 there is j^reat demand for a regular supply 

 of fresh eggs. The few growers who can furnish them regu- 

 larly, winter and summer alike, get very high prices. 



The Corning £gg=BooK 



(entitled " #6.4t per Hen per Year"), tells how two men, in 

 poor health, starting four years ago with only thirty hens, made 

 from their little egg-farm a clear profit of over $1 '2,000 last 

 year. It tells all about their experience, their failures, their 

 methods and how others, men or women, with good sense, care 

 and faithful work can make money in the same way. Not a 

 detail left out.
