This can be used for either water or food for young chicks. The design is 

 original, and will appeal to all poultry-breeders. Size : 18 in. long, 4^ in. wide, 

 l^in. high. When the band through the centre is closed it prevents chicks from 

 getting wet, if the trough is used for drinking purposes ; if for food, the birds can 

 only get their heads between the band and the side of the trough, and thus the 

 food is not trampled upon and wasted. The vessel can also be easily cleaned, which 

 is important.
