BLOOD AND HIGH BREEDING COUNT. 
Enclosed_find draft for which you will send 
by Pacific express, Extra Homers, as per 
memorandum. Several weeks ago I ordered 
15 pairs of: . When the birds came I did not 
think they were much more than common 
birds. A friend in our town wanted some 
breeders and I got him to try your birds. 
They came last night. There is a big differ- 
ence between the birds. My first birds do 
not show any white on bill to amount to any- 
thing and they are most all white or very 
ight color. Yours show their high breeding. 
Blood tells, when you put them together. 
sold mine at half price to-day to get shut of 
them. What I want is blooded stock or 
nothing. Please send me a good collection 
of assorted colors, blues, reds and checkers. 
I ordered one of your squab books some time 
ago and I think it the best I ever read on 
pigeons.—J. A., Missouri. 
TRIFLING DEATH LOSSES. In January 
of this year I purchased 12 pairs of your 
Extras. They are now (April) in fine condi- 
tion and have hatched out 24 young ones, 22 
of which are living and doing fine—W. J., 
Massachusetts. 
SEVEN PAIRS WORTH $25, THIS 
ARKANSAS CUSTOMER THINKS. Writing 
you a few lines to let you know that I got the 
pigeons all O.K. They were all well. I got 
them two weeks to-day and out of the seven 
pairs, four pairs of them have built and are 
setting on eggs already. I. would have 
written you sooner but wanted to see what 
they were going to do. I would not take 
$25 for the seven pairs. Sending the basket 
back this evening with the letter. You can 
put this letter on your list. I think it is the 
only one from Arkansas—C. W., Arkansas. 
GOOD SHOWING AFTER THEIR 3000- 
MILE JOURNEY. Enclosed please find Wells 
Fargo Express money order for $1.70 for which 
please send me by mail post paid, one leg 
band outfit at your very earliest convenience. 
My birds received from you March 17 are 
doing fine. They got right to work and one 
month from the day I received them I had 
three pairs of squabs hatch, Since then one 
more pair has hatched and two more pairs are 
setting and two pairs building. I think that 
is a pretty good showing in six weeks for 10 
pairs after travelling 0 miles. I lost one 
hen. She got sick and I could not find what 
was the trouble. She did not have diarrhcea, 
but just seemed to droop and die. The 
remainder of them are as fine as could be. 
Will you please quote me prices on nine pait 
Extra Homers to be delivered in June or July. 
Caunot tell yet just when I will be ready for 
them, but either June or July sure._ Best 
wishes for your continued success.—E. M., 
California. 
ARKANSAS CUSTOMER IS PLEASED 
WITH SQUARENESS. I received your Man- 
ual a day after I wrote that letter, and I 
received another one. I have sold both of 
them, and find enclosed $1.00 to pay for your 
extra one and another one for myself. You 
people treated me so well I won’t buy any 
Homers from anybody else. I was surprised 
at your squareness and have told every one 
about it and got them all a-going in the right 
direction. I was very, very much pleased 
with your Manual.—G. R., Arkansas. 
HIS MONEY TALKS FOR HIM. Last 
August U purchased 124 pairs of your Extras 
and‘am now in the market for about 375 pairs 
more. Iam also in need of some extra hens 
of the same quality. Can you supply same? 
Also let me know if you can furnish these birds 
in pairs in the following colors: blues, blue 
checkers and red checkers in any number I 
may desire. Please state your very lowest 
rice on above number of pairs. Let me hear 
rom you by return mail, as I am in a great 
rush for the birds.—S. T., Indiana. 
CANNOT SAY TOO MUCH IN PRAISE OF 
OUR HEALTH GRIT. Enclosed find $2.00 
for 100 pounds of health grit. I find this grit 
the best on the market for pigeons. I cannot 
say too much for it as it keeps the pigeons in 
fine health. Although the price is high I 
would never be without it. have quite a 
few people that want to get this grit from me. 
Can you let me have it cheaper, so that I can 
make something out of it? Answer and let 
me know.—R. O., New Jersey. 
BIG SQUAB FARM WHOSE OWNER 
BOUGHT HIS BREEDERS OF US. _I visited 
a squab farm last Sunday and before I left 
found that the owner bought his breeders of 
your company, five hundred pairs. He has 
1100 pairs at present and is making a fortune. 
After seeing this farm I was more than con- 
vinced that the Plymouth Rock Squab Co. 
is O. K. If I get as good a lot of birds as 
he has I certainly will be pleased. ( 
Iam sorry that I did not figure on handling 
more birds than I did. Have built house to 
accommodate 100 birds. Enciosed find stamps 
for which please send plans and specifications 
for squab houses. No doubt you will receive 
a larger order from me in a short time. Will 
notify you in a few days when to ship birds. 
Beware of anybody who tries to make a sale to you by running down the Plymouth Rock 
Sauab Co. 
Insist that he show you letters like these in proof of his claims.
