ATTRACTING ATTENTION. Please to 

 send some literature to address of gentleman 

 enclosed, descriptive of the squab business, 

 and give him prices on same. I have been 

 talking with him in regard to the business and 

 as he has a couple of farms over in Michigan, 

 I have no doubt but what he will make an 

 investment. 



The pigeons that I purchased of you last 

 spring are doing very nicely. Our pen is 

 attracting considerable attention. We have 

 about 75 in it now and we are about to build 

 larger accommodations. — ^T. T., Illinois. 



ENLARGING PLANT, Will you kindly

 the near future and will write you later regard- 

 ing wire for flies. — B. T., New York. 



SWAMPED WITH SQUAB ORDERS. It 



is impossible for me to fill the orders that I 

 have for squabs. I am sending you an order.

 When I receive them, I will order another 

 dozen Extras. I now have about 350 pair of ■ 

 breeders. They are doing fme. — H. S.,

SATISFIED WITH ALL. I received the 

 two baskets containing 36 birds on Thursday. 

 Pardon delay in not answering sooner, as I 

 was out of town. I am perfectly satisfied 

 with all the birds I bought of you and hope to 

 be able in the futta,re to secure more. Am 

 shipping the two baskets this morning by 

 National express, homeward bound. — J. W., 

 New York. 



GOOD REPORT. Please find enclosed a 

 money order for which please ship me 12 pair 

 pigeons as I saw some birds which you shipped 

 to Mr. Walter of this town. I received a 

 booklet from your firm some time ago but did 

 not order birds until I saw Mr. Walter report 

 on his. I decided to give you an order if 

 you can send me mixed colors. Ship via 

 Adams express. Wishing you success. — L. D.,

ONE YEAR'S GOOD TRIAL. Quote me 

 prices on your No, 1 Homers. Those I 

 boiight of you one year ago are doing nicely.

THIS LETTER WAS WRITTEN BY ONE 

 OF OUR CUSTOMERS TO HIS FRIEND IN 

 A NEIGHBORING TOWN. I am pleased 

 to know that you are getting along so nicely 

 with your squab house. Wish you could see 

 the last consignment of birds I received" from 

 the Plymouth Rock Squab Co. of Boston. 

 They are beauties, and they commenced 

 building their nests the second day after they 

 arrived. I have no idea where you are going 

 to ptu-chase your birds but I certainly think 

 you will make no mistake if you get them 

 from Mr. Rice, for the ones he sent me are 

 the finest I ever saw. 



I am confident if you buy your birds of Mr. 

 Rice he will use you right for he has done the 

 right thing by me. — F. B., New York. 



WANTS 500 PAIRS IN THE SPRING. My 



pigeons are doing very well but they are 

 shedding a great many feathers. I want to 

 make arrangements early in the spring for 

 500 pairs of your best stock, but before build- 

 ing my houses I want to take a trip to Meh^ose 

 and look your plant over, in order to get all 

 the ideas about construction, maintenance, 

 etc. I enclose separate slip with a few 

 questions that I would like to have you answer 

 if it is not too much trouble. — J. W., North 

 Carolina. 



LOST ONLY ONE BIRD. AND THAT BY 



ACCIDENT. I recently bought a few pairs 

 of birds that you sold to a gentleman in this 

 city about March 1st. He was moving "to St. 

 Louis and had to dispose of the birds. With 

 what I got from you and the seven pairs J 

 bought from him I now have 65 birds. Have 

 never lost but one bird and that was my own 

 fault for I was experimenting on it and accident- 

 ally killed it. I have a market in St. Louis for 

 all I can ship at $4.00 per dozen. If not ask- 

 ing too much would you kindly give me the 

 address of a couple of Chicago and New York 

 commission men that handle squabs. — ^W. E. 

 T., Missouri, 



STARTED WELL. I write you in regard 

 to the pigeons you will remember we bought 

 of you (24 pairs) about two years ago this 

 month. Our Homers have done verj' nicely. 

 I have about 200 pairs. We sold 40 pairs 

 last year. We have quite a nice little plant 

 started. — A. C, Wisconsin. 



DOING WELL, GOING TO BUILD. Please 

 send me a plan for your multiple unit house. 

 My pigeons are doing fine. — D. B., Illinois. 



STARTED IN TO MAKE REFORMS. 



Please find enclosed check for nine dollars 



Somebody handling the small, stunted Homers may tell you that eight pounds to the 

 dozen is good weight for squabs and that squabs are not bred to weigh more fcrom Homers. 

 That is true» from his Homers. In these pages you will find that eight pounds is low for 

 Plymouth Rock Homer squabs.
