Poultry

POULTRY.
-
The more active breed the less the ability to fatten.

An orchard that is at the same time a poultry yard will yield more fruit of a better quality.

One of the very best egg producing rations is wheat and oats with milk and bran mash well cooked.

If chickens are allowed to roost before they are ten or twelve weeks old, their breasts often get crooked, and their growth and appearance are spoiled.

Never fasten the nests to the walls. No poultry house can be kept clean of lice as long as the nests are in a position which prevents their being thoroughly cleaned.
