Excerpt from Building Plans for Poultrymen and Practical Methods of Poultry Raising Each year finds many new recruits in the poultry industry. The poultry journal solicitor with his aggressive friendly way meets you at the county fair or poultry show and asks you point blank. "Do you raise chickens?" You admit that you were raised on the farm and although you do not happen to be so fortunate as to be raising fowls now you certainly have a "feeling" that way. Accordingly you subscribe for the journal on the strength that it will tell you all about how to raise poultry. But many of the poultry journals have too much of the professional air about them and the person starting with fowls finds himself in deep water as far as understanding what a great many articles are about. Too many of us forget the time we got our first setting of eggs and just how eagerly we read every word we could find on how to rear chicks, feed, make coops and all the varied problems of poultry keeping. I did, like many of you have just done, answered an advertisement of one of the breeders claiming to have 57 varieties of land and water fowls. We got the immense catalog and then could hardly sleep nights thinking what an immense farm that breeder must have and if we only had it we would be in paradise, as far as this world is concerned. Somehow we are all after something cheap and at bargain prices. These little one inch ads scattered about in the periodicals and strangely quite scarce in the poultry journals have an enticing way about them. The beginner who subscribes for a good poultry journal and commences to get in touch with the breeders advertising in them is on the right track. The poultry journals carry advertising for a livelihood and do not be afraid, Mr. Beginner, to place your order for stock or eggs with any of them for the poultry journal cannot afford to keep scoundrel advertisers more than a month. Therefore you are protected and you need have no hesitancy in placing your order with breeders who are making a life study and specialty out of their variety. These are the breeders to tie to. They are giving their individual attention to their variety and are anxious to help you get started right. Do not be taken in by ads found in the cheap magazines and farm papers. You may get value received and you may not. Decide upon the variety you like best and then go at it in earnest. Do not make the mistake of trying out a half-dozen varieties to see which is best. You will know little more about it at the end of a year or two than you know now. Decide upon one of the well advertised varieties for there is certainly merit in a variety that is widely advertised.
