Poultry Common Sense: A Compendium of Useful Receipts, Formulas and Suggestions for Poultry Raisers, Including Monthly Pen, Egg and Hatching Records For One Year

The A.D. Hosterman Company. Springfield, OH

Feeling that a compact, ready reference book comprising useful poultry receipts, formulas, yearly egg record and hints or "short cut" suggestions in poultry culture would be appreciated particularly by amateurs, as well, perhaps by many more experienced in poultry raising, is what prompted us in offering this book to the public.

This book is not intended as a complete guide to poultry raisers, not even covering the whole list or category of essential features and elements of the business but merely a selection of the more important subjects which are briefly and so far as possible comprehensively and practically treated.

The remedies given for the treatment of diseases are for the most part such as may be found in almost every home, yet have been tried and found to be reliable in the cure of those diseases for which they are recommended.

The feeding formulas given are such as are in common every day use by successful poultry raisers calling for the embodiment of grains and other ingredients which may be purchased in any town or city.
