. A day at the Missouri State Poultry Experiment Station, Mountain Grove, Mo., with a brief discussion of the possibilities of the poultry industry of Missouri. Poultry. POULTRY EXPERIMENT STATION. 47 sending out quite a number of articles on poultry every month in the year to poultry journals, farm papers and other publications. We have also completed plans and are now equipping a ten-acre model demonstration poultry farm. This farm is equipped with a view of making it a one-man poultry farm, and we hope to show how ten acres of land can be used to the best advantage with poultry occu- pying the chief portion of the farm. Poultry raising will be combined with the growing of small fruits, the keeping of bees, gardening, and the raising of hogs, and similar things which may be combined to the best advantage. We expect to show just how to plan, arrange and equip a farm so that the greatest amount of revenue can be realized with the least expenditure of time and money. The farm will be modern and up-to-date in every particular yet the buildings will be economically built, and we hope to be able to demonstrate just how to go about making a living on a small tract of land. This one experiment alone will be worth a great deal to the people of the State. With the help and co-operation of the farmers and poultry breeders of the State and with a reasonable appropriation by the State Legisla- ture, we feel certain that the State Poultry Experiment Station and the State Poultry Board will be able to benefit the people of the State a hundredfold for every dollar appropriated. It is our sincere desire to serve the people. T. E.
