Excerpt from Profits in Poultry Keeping Solved: The Briggs' System and Secrets of Successful Poultry Raising; An Economical, Labor Saving, Profit Assuring System of Poultry Raising In editing and arranging this, the fifth edition of pro fits IN poultry keeping solved, by Edgar Briggs, it seems fitting and proper that I should make an explanation both in justice to Mr. Briggs, the author, and myself. During the entire work of editing this, and former edi tions of the Briggs Book, which is another and familiar name applied to profits IN poultry keeping solved, it has been a constant aim and desire on my part to preserve Mr. Briggs' characteristic style of expressing him self, and not in any wise, at any time, to interpose or make use of my own style in writing. In a few instances, how ever, it has been impossible to avoid such interpositions. To my mind, if I were to have robbed Mr. Briggs' manu script oi that peculiar characteristic style he has of express ing himself in writing, it would have likewise robbed this and other editions of his book, which I have edited, of a large amount of its interest and charm and would have been an injustice to him. Mr. Briggs lays no claims to being a classic writer, and his book therefore should not be compared with this class of books and publications, but is rather the written record of the actual experience of Mr. Briggs upon his own poultry farm, in his words. I have visited Mr. Briggs' poultry farm on several oc casions, and have been given each time carte blanc to go ahead and investigate and find out all I could about his busi ness, and as a result of these visits and investigations I can say without the least hesitancy at all, that Mr. Briggs is con ducting the most practical and profitable poultry plant, for the amount of capital expended for labor and maintenance. That there is in existence today. In other words Mr. Briggs' poultry plant is, without doubt, turning him in a larger pro fit on capital invested than any other poultry business to be found in this or any other country. I would not say this if I were not in possession of information which bears me out fully. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
