MORE STORIES OF SUCCESS 
1908 
RAPID BREEDING. CONTENTED MIND 
AND A CLEAR RECOMMENDATION FOR 
PLYMOUTH ROCK HOMERS. This is the 
first time I have had occasion to write you a 
for a year, so here it is briefly. Being a 
business man myself, I know the value of 
time. I put 21 pairs Plymouth Rock Homers 
in loft August 6, 1906. Have sold and eaten 
ten and one-half*dozen squabs. Have on 
hand to-day, October 8, 1907, 80 pairs mated 
breeders and’ near the end of the moulting 
season. I have about a dozen not ready for 
market and about a dozen pairs of eggs, 
divided between two lofts, 40 pairs in each 
and outside of fear of rats. I have a contented 
mind and a clear recommend for Plymouth 
Rock Homers.—W. T. P., Ohio. 
RAISED FROM PLYMOUTH ROCK EXTRAS. 
In sending the above picture he writes: “The 
parents I got from you. I refused ten dollars a pair 
for one pair this winter. I have seen several large 
squab ranches in Delaware but on all of them I never 
saw any birds that could throw such birds as those 
sold by you.” 
MONTANA MAN LIKES OUR STYLE OF 
DOING BUSINESS. Received your notice 
of shipment of birds yesterday (Sunday 29) 
and received the four pairs of fine Extra 
Homers to-day (30th) all in good shape. 
They are all fine birds and we are much 
pleased with them. It was very kind and 
peterons of you people to send an extra pair 
ree of charge, and also drinker and bowls 
as we did not expect either. If this our first 
venture proves successful, you can_ rest 
assured you shall hear from us again. I like 
vont style of doing business—H. S. C., 
ontana. 
A TREAT TO BE TREATED WELL. The 
eleven pairs of birds (second order) arrived 
here yesterday and all in first-class condition. 
I shall place another orde: shortly, as I have 
to complete the buildings, and J am highly 
pleased at the manner your firm does business. 
It is a treat to know that one’s order is filled 
satisfactorily —J. N., Virginia. 
SQUABS SOLD TO HOTEL FOR FIFTY 
CENTS A PAIR IN KENTUCKY. | I received 
your shipment of six pairs of Extra Homers, 
all in good condition; thank you for the Extra 
hen. This was the finest lot of Homers I ever 
saw in size and plumage, which is so uniform 
that it is hard to tell one from the other. ‘I 
will send for another order some time next 
month. I sold three pairs of squabs this 
morning at 50 cents per pair to the hotel, 
and they say that my squabsare fine. (Later.) 
Find enclosed money order for which send me 
six pairs of your Extra nest-mated Homers, 
checkered and uniform in plumage. Every 
pair I have are working and some have two 
nests; one has three eons. squabs, which I 
think is untsual—A. H., Kentucky. 
FIVE YEARS OF SUCCESS BY A NEW 
YORK STATE WOMAN. In October of 
1902 4 sent you a check for $102.75 for 
pigeons. My pigeons have done very well. 
I ship to New York each week. I have just 
been reading your new squab book of 1907 
and would very much like the address of the 
firm you quote in appendix on page 141 and 
top first column page 148. Kindly send it 
to me thereby helping an old customer. 
Also kindly send me price of the new drinking 
fountain spoken of in your Manual. I need 
three new ones and if satisfactory as to price 
will buy of you.—Miss O. W., New York. 
STOCK DOUBLED IN MOULTING SEA- 
SON. We have sent you to-day an order for 
grain for which we hope you will send as soon 
as possible. We bought stock from you 
several times, the first order sent in about 
June 1. Since that time (three months) the 
stock has doubled. We expect to place a 
large order in the spring along about March. 
We have about 75 birds in stock at present 
and started with a stock of 32. We shall 
have to have a few white birds in our next 
order, What is the price of the white stock 
at present? Hoping you will send us the 
grain soon.—C, & F., Massachusetts. 
FAST NESTING BY MATED PAIRS IN 
TEXAS, My birds received August 10 and 
turned into pen; the 17th they were building 
their nests, making seven days from arrival— 
all the birds in good shape. One did not fly 
on perch for about two minutes, but after this 
time have nothing wrong with them. They 
have certainly proven all that you have recom- 
mended of them and as to nesting have beaten 
your figures quite a bit.. Thanking you for 
your extra favor, will do more business as 
soon as I locate where I will make my squab 
farm.—G. R., Texas. 
MANUAL WORTH TEN DOLLARS. I am 
very much tie with your Manual and 
think it worth $10. I shall send you an order 
for breeding stock some time this month, 
and grain and supplies. just as quick as I can 
get my house built —T. H., Massachusetts.
