A Good Chicken House
Brings Bigger Profits
You need not be a poultry expert to raise hens that pro
duce maximum profits. A few principles carefully followed
will insure bigger profite from your chickens.
One thing which is absolutely necessary, besides good
equipment, is a clean properly ventilated chicken house. A
concrete chicken house is permanent and sanitary, therefore
economical. „
Your poultry’s worst enemies, rats and disease-breeding
vermin, are unable to get in their work and the chickens are s
able to live in real quarters and grow and “lay” in the best
possible manner.
Now Is The Time To Build
We have all the materials and some suggestions, too
