"From Biddies To Broilers"; Noted Farm
Authority Tells of Profits To Be Derived
From Sale Of Young Chickens In Spring

"If I can not do great things,
I can da imall things in a great
way."—James Freeman Clarke.
' ■-X . - •. . J .■ ■ * .
Chickens have a fascination for
most people, in the back yard, in the
pen, and later on the table; and "hen
fruit," commonly called eggs, long
since attained to a full partnership in
the national breakfast dish of "ham
and" or "bacon and."
But many a beautiful friendship has
been completely shattered because of
the lack of success in mixing chickens
with flower beds or with vegetable
gardens. Chickens always seem to de
sire to cultivate the beds and gardens
at the wrong time; in fact, they seem
to be unusually lacking in common
sense. We are, most of us, acquainted
with some fool hen, sometimes too
well acquainted; and 1 think all will
agree that chickens as gardeners are
unreliable.
Don't get the impression that 1 am
prejudiced in this matter of chickens;
but 1 will admit that 1 have had some
back-yard experience.
However, we must get on to the sub
ject of this article, "From Biddies to
Broilers."
As we have shown in previous ar
ticles, the farm income has been ma
terially increased in many sections by
the culling of flocks ar.d sale of the
culled chickens to cariot buyers. The
prices paid per pound have been lib
eral in most cases, quality considered.
The cariot method of shipping poul
try, in augurated in recent years, will
soon be underway again, and it is
hoped that the lessons learned from
past experience will prove ol' value
next season. Heavy poultry, in good
condition, and not stuffed with grain
at time of sale, is attractive to east
ern city buyers. When we establish
a reputation for having good poultry,
these buyers will be anxious to get
our stuff, and will bid high for it—
just as high as market conditions will
Justify.
Early Broilers l'rofitable
It has been found that early broil
ers are a profitable venture when the
American breeds are used. Baby
chicks hatched around January lf>th
will, in ten weeks, average one ami
one-half pounds. Last spring early
broilers, carlol shipments, sold for LO
cents per pound at the car door, and
as late as May 46 cents per pound was
paid at the car door. Basing their
views on present industrial prosperity
some writers are predicting that next
March and April broilers will prob
ably be selling for from 60 to G5 cents
per~pound. ——-
* To take advantage of this market
producers must have broodeis and take
care of the baby chicks in a system
atic way. Baby chicks can not stand
cold, and 4f producers wish to put
early broilers on the market next
spring, they must hatch out or buy
baby chicks early and care for them
so that the market may be supplied
at a time when highest prices prevail.
In buying baby chicks it is import
ant that healthy stock be obtained.
When the chicks are to be fed for
sale as early broilers it is all right
to buy "assorted" or "broiler chicks"
from accredited hatcheries.
Mr. V. W. Lewis, livestock repre
sentative, North Carolina Division of
Markets, emphasizes the importance
oi the proper time in marketing live
stock and poultry, in the following
par* graph:
"To get most out of livestock in the
South, we must not overlook "time"
as a factor in marketing. This is very
true with hogs, lambs, and poultry.

profits with the better grain section.
