Ingenious Egg Scheme Draws Money From Farms
A Rural New Yorker letter outlines a plan to profits from hens on a 200 acre farm by breeding a thousand hens per acre. It claims $6,250 daily profit at 25 cents per dozen eggs and promotes electric light to boost production though the idea is presented with satire about urban schemes. The excerpt also covers improving potato crops with guidance from Lawrence & Dodge of the USDA on soil, rotation, machinery, and marketing in northern states.
