Swamp lands, on a farm, converted into Froggeries, "bring in large profits". If you have a piece of ground which is swampy, which can be found on most any farm, and you do not convert this into "Raising Frogs"," you are losing one of the most profitable products of your farm, as "more money" can be made from an "acre of swamp land in a Froggery than ten acres in wheat", if properly managed, and with little expense. You first want to excavate a portion of it where you can have water, 50 x 15 feet, and another part of it 15 x 20 feet, and fence it in, as explained above with a 2-foot one-half mesh wire. In the larger pond place the breeding Frogs, and in the smaller one hatch out the spawn, and when they are developed into Frogs turn them loose on the swamp to grow until they maintain marketable size. If there is a small stream or ditch running through the swamp, which very often is the case, then it is an easy task. And here is where the old saying can be applied, "Makes money for you while you sleep." And good, big money it makes, too. "Don't put off" turning your swamp into a "money-maker". DO IT NOW.
