Recent estimates by the United States Department of Agriculture indicate that more than 600,000,000 head of | poultry and 2,000,000,000 dozen eggs were produced in the | United States last year. The total annual value of these products was considerably over a billion dollars. ; These stupendous figures show plainly that the egg and |poultry crop, ordinarily so little esteemed, is in fact sur- |passed by few of what we are accustomed to consider our | great agricultural staples. The greater portion of the eggs and poultry is produced | from small flocks of chickens on countless farms throughout |the country. Only a few localities have a specialized poultry jindustry. Among these, Alderwood Manor stands out pre- eminent for its high-grade stock, its progressive methods of | operation, and its superior marketing facilities. Attracts Attention of Governments Only eleven miles north from the Seattle city line is |located the Alderwood Manor Demonstration Farm, a unique linstitution. Its fame as a successful, practical poultry col- i lege, teaching and safeguarding its students as they learn to operate their own poultry plants on their own tracts of land, |has spread not only throughout the United States, but has jattracted attention of foreign governments—England, Aus- ‘tralia, Japan, and others—who have sent their delegates to study its methods. Not only has this highly efficient poultry college itself attracted investigation because of the | quality of its work, but the Alderwood Manor plan, which | provides the settler with a free education in'poultry raising and gardening combined with financial assistance in build- ling, also has engaged the interest of p ive, construct- jive thinkers throughout the civilized: world. “The small tracts of land occupied by Alderwood Manor families with \their growing poultry plants, their family gardens and |orchards, are practical demonstrations of the value of inten- | sive development. Effective Methods Bring Results As in other lines, specialigation in this industry has re- | sulted in more efficient and economical production. Im- proved methods of housing, feeding and handling of chicks have been put into practice. Though no restrictions are placed on the settlers as to methods of operating, yet they |are encouraged to follow the methods which have produced | the 4,000 heavy layers in the Demonstration Farm breeding (pens having trap-nest rds of 200 to 326 eggs in a year. | These figures show .tHe quality of the Alderwood Manor strain from which the \residents in this community obtain their young stock. Although 120 eggs a year from a bird is considered a good average, Alderwood Manor poultrymen | begin their work with chicks bred from hens having more | than double that record. There is no longer any chance a’ ge production. With stock from a good-laying strain, correct housing, Mghting and feeding, an attractive annual yield is bound to result. It is customary at Alderwood Manor to #0 regulate the production that a heavy yleld-te obtained during the {ally 7% and winter seatons of high prices. During the short space of three years the operations of some of the tettlers have grown to the dimensions of big business with receipts of thousands of dollars. The gathering and marketing in Seattle of bun- dreds of thousands of eggs presented a considerable problem unti) six mouths ago Alderwood Manor residents organized with other commu: nities to help one another, and formed the Washington Co-operative Ess and Poultry Association. Its effective methods of collecting, grading and shipping through Seattle to the best markets of the country, even as far east as New York City, are proving its value. One Million Hens Here ‘The day is not far distant when all the great markets of the Fast will know Alderwood Manor eggs as intimately as do the markets of the West. Soon, if the growth of the Manor in the. past may be taken as any indication of the growth in the future, there will be one million hens in this community. , For profitable production {t is necessary to have both sofl and climate that will grow plenty of green material, especially if one expects to obtain a liberal winter egg production. It is just as important that chicks get plenty of green stuff as for cows to have fresh forage and for people to eat vegetables. In the Puget Sound country the climate is ideal for the production of this green feed throughout the whole twelve months of the year. Here the thousand-headed kale yields 25 to 50 tons to the acre. The plant grows out of doors through the entire winter, the lower leaves being cut off as needed. Alderwood Manor climatic conditions are highly favorable not onty for poultry raising, but statistics for the City of Seattle show the best health record in the country for the haman species, A.B.C."c* WAREHOUSING and DRAYING 304 Nailread Ave. So.
