Excerpt from Poultry Management Careful management of poultry is more necessary for suc cess than with many other classes of live stock. Lack Of good management in this business quickly and certainly results in loss. Infertility Of eggs results from poor management of the breeding stock. Loss in incubation and in raising young chicks soon follows any mismanagement. A low egg produc tion is sure to follow any fault in the feeding. To succeed with poultry, therefore, one must give them care and thoughtful attention and not leave them to manage and feed themselves. With the best of management and care, too much must not be expected Of poultry. DO not figure profits in advance. Bear in mind that the average figures run about as follows: In the spring months only about 90 per cent Of the eggs will be fer tile, at other times, less; 75 per cent may hatch strong chicks and perhaps 80 per cent Of these will live to a productive age. Such things as these must be remembered 111 estimating the cost Of production. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Farm Poultry Management: January 1964 Roasters and capons are best suited for farm production. Roasters are 3 to 5-month old chickens that weigh 5 pounds or more; capons are 6 to 7 month old chickens that weigh 7 pounds or more. The per-pound and per-bird costs of raising these tender-meated, heavy-weight chickens are higher than the corresponding costs of raising broil ers. Therefore, roasters and capons sell at a higher price per pound. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Where other chicken breeders failed, Professor James Dryden in Oregon succeeded when "Lady MacDuff" laid 303 eggs in 365 days in 1912-1913. How did he do it? Through the methods described in this book, which can be divided into two parts: his successful breeding techniques and his simple yet effective management techniques. Poultry Breeding and Management, first published a century ago, was an immediate hit with farmers and breeders alike, and remained in print for nearly thirty years. It was the best, most popular, and most influential poultry book of its time, and remains well worth reading today. James Dryden (1863-1935) was Professor of Poultry Science at Oregon Agricultural College (now Oregon State University) and was the first to demonstrate that egg production can be in-creased through selective breeding. He is the only poultryman ever inducted into National Agricultural Hall of Fame. Poultry Breeding and Genetics is volume 6 of the Norton Creek Classics series.

Excerpt from Poultry Breeding and Management The remarkable development of poultry culture during the past two decades is one of the outstanding features of American agriculture. Twenty years ago the possibilities of poultry-keeping as an industry were scarcely dreamed of. While it does not yet receive the consideration it deserves - far from it - nevertheless it has made immense gains both in popular recognition and in production. This has been brought about by a better realization of the pro ductive value of the hen. The idea of fuss and feathers, long associated with the keeping of fowls, has gradually given way to the idea of a poultry industry whose first and only business, as an industry, is the production of eggs and meat.
