HE following letters received by Mrs Rebecca Johnson are an indica-

 of manipulating incubators and raising chickens: 



From the Governor of Iowa 



Executive Office 

 Des Moines 



August 20, 1906. 

 My Dear Sir: I beg to acknowledge your very interesting letter of 

 the 17th instant. It always gives me great pleasure to mark the progress 

 of Iowa in any direction, but I find especial gratification in what you say 

 with respect to Mrs. Johnson. The world is not very kind in a business 

 way, and she can well feel proud of her victories over adverse circum- 

 stances. She well deserves the title "Poultry Queen of Iowa." 



Yours very truly, 



Albert B. Cummins.

Iowa City, Iowa, April 15, 1906. 

 Mrs. D. C. Johnson, Maxwell, Iowa — Dear Madam: By inquiry, I am 

 referred to you by Prof. W. J. Rutherford, Iowa State Agriculture College, 

 for information on poultry. I desire poultry for market, and from what 

 knowledge I have, have thought of securing prolific layers as a breed. Also 

 I wish to purchase one or more incubators and am satisfied of a number of 

 good ones on the market, also some inferior ones, but for one unexperienced 

 it is hard to decide; thinking perhaps that information from one who has 

 had experience along this line would probably evade many mistakes more 

 costly than information secured at beginning. Hoping you can furnish 

 me information desired, I await your terms, etc. 



Yours very respectfully, 



R. S. Cochran. 



Jack.90n, Minn., July 10, 1906. 

 Mrs. D. C. Johnson, Maxwell, Iowa — Dear Madam: Your book on 

 poultry raising and how to operate incubators has been recommended to 

 me. Please send me one by return mail and oblige. Enclosed find P. O. 

 order for 11.00 for same. Yours truly, 



Geo. D. Horst.
