EGG TESTIMONIALS (continued). 



Dear Sir, — Last summer I got from you a sitting of Orpington Eggs. 

 I think it no more than right to let you know that I got from the same 

 eggs a lot of vei-y grand birds. I have killed them all but one pullet, 

 as I find the Orpington has a very good flavour when well cooked. The 

 one pullet that I have yet I have saved untU I hear fi-om you, that is if 

 you will be so good as to give me your advice. This .same pullet has 

 laid the extraordinary number of 59 eggs in 59 days, fed on plain food 

 night and morning. She is now casting her feathers. You certainly 

 deserve much credit for bringing out the Orpington fowl for they are a 

 lirst class bird for eggs or table, "the proof of the pudding is in the 

 eating." Yours truly, E. W. POULTXEY. 



SlE, — Referring to the sittings of Orpingtons I had from you, I am 

 glad to be able to tell you that I hatched eleven chickens from the .sitting 

 of Single Combs, and ten from the Kose Combs. I am very pleased 

 with them as they have come so uniformly marked. 



Faithfully yours, F. HUOHES. 



Sir, — As the result of the sitting of Langshan eggs I had from you, 

 I wish to say that I have been fortunate enough to get eleven strong and 

 healthy chickens. They were somewhat late in hatching, but now that 

 tliey have come I am more than pleased. My hen did not sit very 

 closely, so perhaps this accounts for the overtime. I shall recommend 

 your eggs to my friends as I have always found them good. 



Yours obliged, A. J. ilARTIXEAU. 



Sir, — You asked me at your office to let you know what results I had 

 from the sitting of White Leghorn eg"s I had, and I am plea.«ed to do 

 so. I have ten beautiful chickens witli which I am more than satisfied. 

 I shall be glacf in future to purchase my sittings from you. 



Faithfully j'ours, F. HOLMES. 



Dear Sir, — I had from jouin the end of February two sittings of 

 CI OSS-bred eggs, one of Langshan-ilinorcas and one of Houdan-Leghorns. 

 Judge of my delight when I found I had ten Lan^han-Minorca chickens 

 and ten Houdan-Leghorns. I should have had two more of the latter 

 but they died in shell. Yours gratefully, T. SIMMONS. 



De.vr Sir, — From the sitting of Pure Minorca eggs you sent me 1 have 

 succeeded in hatching eleven beautiful chickens. My neighbours who 

 sent elsewhere for their eggs have not been half so fortunate, and they all 

 agree with me that your eggs are thoroughly good. I shall let you know 

 in course of time wliat the laying, etc. , results of the brood are. 



Yours truly, A. RHODES.
