Read the Whole Story Below. 
I N 1905 two men named Corning, father and son, were looking for a 
paying business for men in rather poor health. Although they had no 
experience in that line they decided to raise eggs. They took a piece 
of ground in New Jersey, and began with thirty hens. 
Last year those two men had 1953 hens, and made a clear profit of 
over Twelve Thousand Dollars. 
The 
Corning; Eg;g;-Book 
(entitled “$6.41 Per Hen Per Year”) tells HOW these two men did it. NOT theories, but facts; not 
air-castles, not expectations, but methods, tested and proved by experience. It tells how they found a 
market eager to get choice eggs at high prices. It tells how they learned to meet that demand with an 
unfailing supply, in winter as in summer. It tells of their problems and failures, and how they overcame 
them and won SUCCESS. And it gives beginners just the help they need to make money in this unlimited 
field. Your chances of success are far better than theirs, for you have their experience to guide you. The 
knowledge which cost the Comings thousands of dollars and years of experiment is at your command for 
the price of a dozen eggs. 
_Here are some of the things that the CORNING EGG-BOOK tells :- 
The troubles of great hotels in getting reliable eggs. 
The prices paid for CORNING eggs throughout the year. 
The number of eggs sold each day through the year. 
How to get the most eggs when other people get none. 
When to hatch chicks that are to lay winter eggs. 
How to glow juicy broilers in nine weeks. 
How to mix the food that makes the most eggs. 
How to prevent the drafts that kill chickens. 
How to save 97 per cent, of the young chicks. 
Why and how they make the hens scratch for food. 
Why they send hens to roost with full crops. 
How to make hens attend strictly to business. 
Why they raise only sterile white-shelled eggs. 
How to have May chicks laying eggs in October. 
The Corning Egg-Book is sold in combination with the 
in order to increase its subscription 
list to ONE MILLION for the coming year 
FARM JOURNAL 
Farm Journal has for thirty years conducted a poultry department known the country over for the ability of 
its editors and the value of its contents. Besides this strong section, which of itself makes the paper valuable 
to every chicken owner, its other departments are ably conducted and widely quoted. It is the standard 
monthly farm and home paper of the country, with already more than 650,000 subscribers. It is clean, 
bright, intensely practical; boiled down, cream, not skim-milk. Its editors and contributors know what 
they are talking about, and can quit when they have said it. It is for the gardener, fruitman, stockman, 
trucker, farmer, villager, suburbanite, the women folks, the boys and 
girls. It is illustrated and well printed on good paper. It has not a 
medical or trashy advertisement in it. More than half million of its 
subscribers pay five and ten years ahead—a very remarkable fact.
