TURKEY SALE
It has been decided to load a car
of turkeys and other poultry at Hay
esville on M9nday and Tuesday,
November 19th and 20th.
The farmers should make a spec
ial effort to get their turkeys as fat
as possible. One buyer advises that'
all turkeys weighing less^than eight
pounds be'held and grown out until
the Christmas sale.
Bringing' a poultry car to Hayes
ville should enable the farmers to
get better prices for their turkeys
and other poultry. No doubt they
will cooperate to make it a success
ful safe by bringing all surplus tur
keys to the car.
The man that buys for the car will
not buy at Hayesville on November
13th.
The House That Eggs j
Built
Out in California at the Los Ange- j
les Couhty Fair there was an exhibit
of a little house builtt of eggs. Who-'
ever arranged the exhibit must have
heard about W. L. Shrank, of Ham-,
ilton Cousty, Texas, whose profits
from poultry have enabled him to
build and completely furnish a com
fortable and beautiful home which
he calls “the house that eggs built.”
After trying for a number of years
to get enough ahead out of his cot
toft crop to build - a home, Mr.
Schrank decided to try a few chick
ens. Nowadays, he sells an average
of a crate of eggs a day, has two
Jersey cows, fifty sheep, a flock of
turkeys, abtait 400 White Leghorn
hens and rents 60 acres to a tenant
who is required to raise all the feed
he uses. He has set an example that
is being followed by 36 of the 42
homes in his community, each . of
which now has from 200 to 500
hens.
Mr. Schrank is just one of many
Southern- farmers who have found
that pbultry, when well managed,
will bring returns at least double
those of any other farm crop, con
sidering the investment. It is an
easy matter to secure a net profit of
$100 to $300 a year from 100 good
hens. All over the Soutth, poultry
is building homes, paying grocery
and doctor bills, clothing families,
educating children, installing water
works and lights, and providing reg
ular incomes sufficient t omeet ex
penses as they are incurred.
George Weathers, of Bowman, S.
C., started five years ago with four
hens and a rooster. He now has
450 White Leghorns and is getting
250 to 260 eggs daily. W. H. Clough
of Pierce County, Georgia, has been
in the poultry business seven years.
He can’t begin to count his chick
ens—he has to measure them by the
acre. Mr. Clough dosen’t keep as
many records as some folks but his
business keeps on growing and he
says his bank account shows the bal
ance i on. the right side, so he is
pretty well satisfied. Incidentally,
he raises a bale of cotton to the acre
and corn that will yield around 40
bushels.
Poultry brings upward of two
million dollars annually to the citi
zens of Greene County, Tennessee,
whose flocks range from a few doz
en birds per farm up into the thou
sands, with a net income per hen of
around $2.00. The 90 White Leg
horn heifs owned by Mrs. H. T.
Moore, of Kerrville, Tenn., averaged
112.4 eggs per hen and made their
a net profit of $241.75 during tthe
first ix months of 1928,-,
Turkeys and guineas can also be
raised profitably „ op practically
every Southern farm. For the
Thanksgiving and Christmas mar
kets, of 1927, the Black Belt of Ala
bama sold 31 carloads of turkeys
.for $120,000. Along about this time
of the year, Mrs. Oscar Duke, who
lives near Griffin, Georgia, can step
out in the back yard and count at
leatst 100 beautiful Ffrurbon tur
keys, for which she has no trouble
gettitng fromt two and a half to five
dollars a piece. The guinea fowl
used to be considered more of a cur
iosity than anything else but that
idea has changed, and’there is a
growing demand for guinea broilers
at prices that tshow the grower a
mighty nice profit.
