Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Western Poultry Book: Tells You What to Do and How to Do It; The Chicken Business From First to Last; With Questions and Answers Relative to Up-to-Date Poultry Culture
The book is a synopsis of many chapters of my Woman's Work in the Poultry Yard and other talks on poultry, and embodies the personal, practical experiences I have been through myself in many years of pleasant work in the poultry yard. Its object is not necessarily to urge anyone into the business, but to encourage and help beginners and especially newcomers, not back East but on the great Pacific Coast and in the Western States, where conditions differ materially from those in the East and where there is an increasingly large demand for both poultry and eggs; where the poultry business is about as profitable as any that can be undertaken and a good living may be made in the pure air and sunshine by any industrious man or woman.
