One of the stJ·ict requirements for a profitable tJoultry business is •to furnish a snfliclent <ruantlty of the right kiud of feed to nutke flesh, muscle and bone and to supply E-nergy for the growln~o: chieks. In addition, they need clean, dry quarters, fresh water un;f shade. The green feed is also Important, though It Is oftentimes oYerloolied, says ~lr. Parrish.

This port of, l'ortngal, whieh hns very aptly been called the kernel of the country, t;aw the commercial pride of the Phoetlicians and heard the fervent prayers of Vnsco rla Gnma before he set out on !tis perilous voya:::-e in s~>arch of l11uiu, the lund which had lured navigators for centuries. Lisbon's ancient name -was Ulisipo, which caused mauy Creel; scholars to try to connect It with the wande1·ings of Ulys><PS, hut the name prohahly originnted from two l'hoenicinn words me;tning Pleasnnt Bay, which Is made <louhly plausible because the mouth of the Tagus ju:;;t beyond the city widens into one of the best hnrbors In the whole of l':urotJe. The Homans knew I.!Rbon as Fellcl· tas .Julia, and it grew to be the second city In Lu,itania, that famous district of Ilispania in time or the Caesars. Its temple and theater ruins attest its occupation. Sncce;;sively It has been !"eize() hy the Alam;, the Visl:::-oth«. the Moors and the Crusaders. The kind· ly lnlluence of the English Crusaders who min!!led with the Portuguese mat;"es left its mark, and llns shown itself In the friendly rt>lations that haYe, practieally ever ~'<ince, existed between the two nations.

Commercially the city has nntural ndvantages in its hnrhor, whieh can nccomrnndate the lar:::-est Yessel;1, and an nrh:wtageous position on the At· !antic. At prPsf'nt Its trade is confined chiefly to exporting corlt, wine, olive oil and tropical fmits to and lmtwrting coal, wood. corn, riee nnd man· llfacturerl aJ•ti<'l<>s from En:::-lund. Brazil and its own .\frlran colonies. Along the Tngn~ vegetahl<>s, fruits nnd llowprs are piled in high heaps to tempt the eager· marketers, hoats of every description from the dingy little tlshing smack to the ladylike At· lantlc liner are loading and unlonding their cnrgoes, and the fi"h peddlers who nre to he seen everywhere In the Lisbon streets a1·e rnucously bargainIng for their stock In trade with the fishermen along the wharves.
