Originally published in the early 1930s, this extremely scarce
early work on poultry keeping is both expensive and hard to find in
its first edition. We are now republishing it, using the original
text and photographs. Two hundred and thirty three pages deal with
every aspect of poultry keeping from egg to table, and will prove
invaluable to both the backyard beginner and the larger commercial
enterprise. Twenty detailed chapters contain much expert advise on:
The Beginner; Breeds and Strains; Houses and Appliances; Foods and
Feeding; Hatching; Rearing; Backyard Poultry Keeping; Intensive
Poultry Keeping; Winter Egg Production; Day Old Chicks; Ducks;
Turkeys; Geese; Guinea Fowls; Diseases of Poultry; Vermin; Egg
Preserving; Killing and Shaping; Plucking, Drawing, Trussing;
Marketing; Accounts. Etc. The book is well illustrated with photos
of breeds and equipment. This is a fascinating read for any poultry
enthusiast, and contains much information that is still useful and
practical today. Many of the early farming books, particularly
those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce
and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works
in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original
text and artwork.
