This special re-print edition of William John and Scott Robertson's book "Poultry Farming: Some Facts and Some Conclusions" is a complete guide to poultry farming for eggs or meat. Written in 1905, this classic text contains information on how to get successful results in poultry farming. It also dispells, in a rather no-nonsense way, many common myths that were perpetuated about raising poultry for profit. Chapters include The Origin of the Poultry Farm Myth, The Poultry Farms Which Seem To Pay, Do Fine Feathers Make Fine Birds, The Finance of Fancy Poultry Keeping, How Farmers' Fowls Are Made to Pay, Facts About Several Well Known Poultry Farms, The Conflict of Authority, Poultry Farm Balance Sheets Scrutinized, Poultry Paper Puffery of Poultry Farming, Why Egg Collecting and Poultry Fattening Pay, Direct To The Consumer Theories Examined, Wisdom From The 'Shires, A Poultry Farmers' Confession and more. A most entertaining read, filled with some real common sense about Poultry Breeding. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
