This makes, in our opinion, one of the most attractive poultry farms to be found His bungalow home of eight rooms will be a model to be copied by many of the settlers at Alderwood Manor. In the architecture has been worked out many of the detatis that have been fleaned from intensive perusal of those pertodic@ls and farm journals that devote considerable space to ar- ticles on building. Many of these ideas have been worked out and made to apply to the Shultz home. It cer-| tainly will be a beautiful place, and why should it not be so? | Mr. Shultz is one of the men who started in th poultry industry 0, practically without capital, and has succeeded beyond his expec tations.
