 page. The birds hanging in front of the brown paper are squabs just killed to get them into the picture. 



FINEST BIRDS PERFECTLY MATED. 



CHANGED HIS HOUSES. I want to tell you 



PAYING PLANT IN HANDSOME BUILD- 

 INGS. I enclose photograpli showing my 

 four units and office room. The building is 

 made of matched -lumber so that they are ab- 

 solutely air-tight if so desired. It is equipped 

 ■with steam heat, electric light, hot and 

 cold water and both telephone systems. In 

 the office room the grain bins are z.inc-Uned 

 and moisture proof. The top is upholstered 

 so that when the lid is down the room has a 

 very pleasant appearance. 



I have today broken ground for two more 

 units, as my young birds are coming on so 

 fast that I must make room for them. Be- 

 sides supplying the Elmira market, I am sav- 

 ing my most promising yotmg ones in order 

 to increase my flock. 



I have bought from you exclusively because 

 I liked your business methods and believe j'ou 

 are fair and square. Your birds are good 

 breeders and throw heavy, white-skinned 

 squabs. Business is good and as fast as I 

 make money I enlarge my plant. — L. S. W., 

 New York, 



SOME AT WORK AFTER LONG JOUR- 

 NEY. The pigeons (dozen pairs) arrived, 

 August 12, in good condition ^vith the excep- 

 tion that two of them had each one wing hurt, 

 I have waited to see kow badly they were 

 hurt before writing, but think they will pull 

 through all right for one of them has taken a 

 mate and is building on the floor of the pigeon 

 house. Five pairs of them are building and 

 three pairs are driving, while several others 

 are paired off. — B. V., State of Washington. 



about my birds. I received them the Satur- 

 day of the week you shipped them, turned 

 them out on Monday and they went right to 

 building. I have got three setting and I see 

 the others are starting to build. They went 

 right to work without any trouble. They go 

 into the house every night just as if they were 

 raised there. They are the finest birds I ever 

 saw. I have just flnished another large 

 pigeon house and flying pen and I have put 

 my white ones into it. Since I read your 

 Manual I have changed most all my pigeon 

 houses. I find they are so much better than 

 mine. If any one is going into the pigeon 

 business I would advise them to get one of 

 your books on birds. I am sorry I did not get 

 one long ago. Just as soon as I can get rid of 

 m\' common pigeons I want to replace them 

 with yours. I have got to build another 

 pigeon house and it will be about October 

 before I get through wdth it, and I shall need 

 nestbowls and other supplies. — C. E. G., 

 North Carolina.
