PLYMOUTH ROCK BLUE BARS AND BLUE CHECKERS. 
BOY IN THE INDIAN TERRITORY 13 YEARS OLD GOT RID OF HIS FLOCK OF COMMON 
BIRDS AS SOON AS HE SAW PLYMOUTH ROCKS AND WHAT THEY WOULD DO. The 
nappies ordered of you came on time. My pigeons put them to use as soon as they arrived. 
bought six pairs of your Extra Plymouth Rock Homers in January, 1907. I now (July) have 
32 large, full-breasted birds. Some of the young ones are going to work now. Iam 13 years 
old and was anxious to do something to make a little money while going to school, and saw an 
advertisement of your Homers and made up my mind to try them. I am more than satisfied 
with my investment and within the next year I expect to have a very nice little income. 
In your Manual you show a diagram of a self-feeder, and I had one made which is very 
satisfactory, as it saves so much work and attention. I can get all the grain recommended 
by you except the buckwheat and hempseed, and I use red (instead of white) wheat, and my 
birds are thriving and doing well. 
I hope to be able to dispose of all I can raise here in my home market, as they are so large 
and fine. In fact, there is all the difference in the world between my Homer squabs and the 
ordinary scrub squab, and it will pay any one wanting to go in the business to get the best to 
start on. I weighed some of my squabs this morning (just three weeks old) and they average 
one pound each, or two pounds to the pair. I had a flock of common birds and the squabs 
were dark skinned and weighed about eight ounces, and when I read of your birds I at once 
sold out and ordered from you, and I certainly feel that I made a good trade. I expect to 
order six pairs more soon. Thank you for the promptness and care taken of my orders.— 
L. G., Indian Territory.

Please send six more pairs of your Extra degrees below zero, so I have kept a coal oil 
Plymouth Rock Homers and one dozen nest- stove going most of the time. Your birds 
bowls. We are able to get $3 a_dozen for have been greatly admired. They are the 
our squabs at the hotels here—W. A. T., biggest that have ever been seen here.—
