ful help in this hatch for the weather was very warm and it was hard 

 to keep the temperature under subjection. 



One incubator which came under the writer's observation, hatch- 

 ed 136 chicks with only four eggs left in the incubator. 



The event called together a large crowd of not only her admiring 

 freinds, but a large number of curious and inquiring people, who were 

 coming and going the entire day, many coming hundreds of miles. All 

 felt amply repaid as it was a sight that will be witnessed but once in, a 

 life time. 



An enclosure of perhaps 16x20 feet on the lawn was literally cover- 

 ed with the little wriggling, downy mortgage lifters. 



How few who witnessed the sight realized the amount ,pf. .labor and 

 the tax on both brain and body. Mrs. Johnson has well earned for her- 

 self the title of Iowa's Poultry Queen,' or perhaps America's Poultry 

 Queen or perhaps of the entire world. 



Not only is she a successful amateur hatcher but she raises a 

 larger per cent of what she hatches than ordinary poultry raisers. She 

 certainly is an able person to give information on the poultry subject." 



These words coming from such a reliable source and from one so 

 well known in Durant will give added strength to the testimony hither- 

 to published concerning Mrs. Johnson's discoveries in artificial incuba- 

 tion and rearing incubator chicks. 



Mrs. Nienaber was more than pleased with what she saw and 

 learned during her visit with Mrs. Johnson and further declares that 

 following the latter's methods has proven of inestimable value in this 

 season's work. Durant Star. 



MY COMPOUND IS GOOD FOR CALVES AND PIGS 



Neasho, Missouri, January 27, 1907. 



Mrs. D. C. Johnson Dear Madam: Enclosed pleased find 50 

 cents for some more of your compound. It is the best remedy for poul- 

 try I ever saw, and hope it will never be adulterated. Be sure and 

 leave your formula with some one when you quit the business. Is it 

 good for pigs and calves that have scours? We have between 4 and 5 

 dozen hens ,they are furnishing us with fully 2 dozen eggs per day; it 

 is counting up in dollars pretty well. We get from 20 to 30 cents per 

 dozen. I let a lady have some of your compound as her chickens had 

 a bad case of roup. Thanking you for past favors, I am yours very 

 respectfully, J. M. PROPST, Breeder of Thoroughbred Poland China 

 hogs.

Now, my friends, there is no use for me to say more. These testi- 

 monials are self explanatory. If others can have good success with my 

 Incubators, Brooders, Brooder Attachments, Book, Compound and Elec- 

 tric Alarm so can you. If you contemplate buying an Incubator and 

 Brooder let me fit you out. If you already have an Incubator, my 

 Book, Compound and Alarm would be wonderful help to you. Write me
